Farmers Day At The Maryland
Agricultural College.

The outlook is bright for a large and
enthusiastic attendance of farmers and
their families at the Agricultural College
on Farmers Day. May 20. Field workers
of the Extension Service and friends of
the institution report much interest in
every section of the State. In many neigh
borhoods local groups and clubs are ar
ranging to make the trip together as a
sort of holiday, combining both pleasure
and instruction in helping to celebrate the
occasion. Indications are that all who
attend will have most eventful and lively
day. In addition to a thorough inspection
of the College and Experiment Station
grounds, numerous interesting demonstra-
tons have been arranged for that will be
of vital interest to every farmer and his
family. The program for the day includes
a wide variety Of attractions The new
Founders Gate at the entrance of the
College grounds will be the scene of a most
impressive dedication. Prominent speak
ers. including Hon. Carl Vrooman, Assist
ant Secretary of Agriculture, and Hon.
Robert Grain. Of Baltimore. will address
the crowd on the future development Of
agriculture in Maryland. There will also
be plenty of good music, a picnic lunch
served by the College, and a live baseball
game as interesting diversions among the
days more serious proceedings. II is going
to prove splendid chance for the farmer
and his family to enjoy refreshing holt
day and at the same time see much that
should be of help and interest to them as
well as making them better acquainted
with the work of his Agricultural College
and Experiment Station.

Equity Suits Filed To Test Legality
OF Association.

The town of Washington Grove, this
county, has been made defendant in sew
eral equity cases in the Circuit Court here.
Washington Grove is practically governed
by the Washington Grove Association, in
which prospective property owner must
purchase stock before he can become a
resident of Washington Grove. Having
purchased stock, according to the charter
and bylaws of the association, with the
approval of the board of trustees elected
by the stockholders, the stockholders may
then locate his stock on some INDICATED
lot or lots, depending on the amount of
stock. and is then given certificate from
the Washington Grove Association vesting
in him the ownership of the lot or lots
subject to the provisions of the charter and
bylaws of the association. This certifi-
cate, which is acknowledged before a notary
public, may be filed in the court house
here as an evidence of the stockholders
right to possession of the lots.
These suits have been brought by Robt
H. Walker and his wife and by Sallie L.
Walker, wife of Samuel II. Walker. In one
of the suits the plaintiffs seek to compel
the association to grant them a ninety
nine-year lease on property that they
some years ago purchased by stock, and in
the second case the plaintiffs set up an
old ninety-nine-year lease and demanded
a fee simple deed. The plaintiffs desire
the ninety-nine- year lease for the reason
that an act of the legislature of Maryland
permits such deed to be redeemed by a
fee simple deed, so that if the plaintiffs
can secure a ninety-nine-year lease. it will
mean that all of the interest in and con-
troll over the property by the association
will be wiped out, and therefore will be
unable to carry out the purpose of its
charter. These suits will test the very
right of the Washington Grove Associa-
ton to exist. and should the plaintiffs be
successful it will mean that each property
owner will hold his land free from any
supervision or control by the Washington
Grove Association. The matter is of great
interest to the residents of Washington
Grove, for the association has been the
means of providing the town with all the
advantages that would come to each If it
were an Incorporated town. and if the by
laws and charter of the association were
practically nullifed. the town will have no
government of any sort. With the excep-
ton of the plaintiffs, practically all of the
property owners support the association in
its efforts to sustain its charter and by
laws

German Bombs Deadly.

LONDON. Feb. 2S.-The Germani
are using an explosive in trench war
fare so powerful that a cylindrical
case OF 1t footlong and six inches
In diameter can blast q hole in the
ground from 45 to 55 feet wide and
30 TO 40 feet deep, eays correspon-
dent OF the Daily News who gives a
French officer as his authority.
These small bombs. with explosive
effect OF a charge Of 1875 pounds OF
rnelanlte. are hurled from mortars
and can be plainly seen on their
&C Urse. The French believe that the
moterial used is either liquid air or
liquid carbonIc acid gas.
The officer says that this new
type Of bomb recently caused the
French TO evacuate trenches at Arras
which had previously been carried by
assault.
