DECORATE

- ONE thousands of men from dis
tant parts Of the Commonwealth
~ will march through Harrisburg's
streets tomorrow. Rain or
shine they will md themselves as dry
shod at the end of their long walk as
when they started. Thousands more
will stand on the sidewalks and see
them go by. These spectators will
not appreciate so much what we as a
city have done IN the way of street
improvements. but they will observe
whether or not the houses that line
the streets are decorated. AS a mat
ter of home-pride. if for no other
reason, every resident along the route
of the parade, at least, should hang
out an American flag. Harrisburg
should look ITS best on this occasion,
and if everybody will do his mite the
effect will be pleasing and the deco
rations appropriate.

PENNSYLVANIA, A CORN STATE

THE Keystone State annually pro-
duces over half the iron and
- considerably more than half the
steel made in this country; it's
anthracite coal production is un-
rivalled and it's tonnage of bituminous
coal and of coke and it's flow of oil
rise to magnificent totals in values
They are so impressive that nine
tenths of the people in the State and
most of those out of it do not know
that the State is one of the great agrI-
cultural commonwealths.
Lest we all forget, let us note the
fact that the values of six crops raised
in Pennsylvania last year, only six, re-
member, aggregate a value of one
eighth of a billion dollars. Just what
others amounted to in value the newly
organized bureau of statistics of the
State Department of Agriculture is
trying to ascertain. But it does know
that corn, wheat, potatoes, oats, buck
wheat and rye were conservatively
valued at s112,OOO,OO0 in round num-
bers and that the State had an apple
crop second only to New York and
that it is one of the coming hay States,
with a very respectable crop as to
size and value harvested annually.
And here is one of the interesting
things. The most valuable of the crops
on which trustworthy data has been
gathered by Chief While was corn.
Think of Pennsylvania raising over
fifty-eight and a half million bushels
of corn! And think of that corn being
valued at s45,645,OO0 incidentally, we
raised S25, ,00O, 600 worth of wheat. But
corn appears to be our long suit
Pennsylvania is knocking for admit
tance to the list of the Corn States.

RICHMOND WINS
UPHILL BATTLE
IN SMALL ROOM
Connersville Bows Before
Brilliant Attack of Brown
and Porter-First Half
Ends 1910.

After a hard struggle last night. the
Richmond High school basketball
team emerged from the game with
Connersville victorious by the score
Of 81 to %.
Accustomed to big hall, the locals
were somewhat handicapped by the
small space in which they had to
work. Some idea Of the size of the
hall may be gained from the fact that
there were only 200 people present at
the game and that the place was
jammed.a Richmond worked at a ter
Sahc pace, but they could not pull
some OF the best plays on account Of
the lack Of room.
Brown and Porter were the stars
for Richmond while Gregg for Con-
nersville played a desperate game.
At the end of the frst half the
score was 10 to 10 in Richmond's
favor and the boys left the door with
pretty serious faces for they could not
afford to lose and they realized that
they were playing against a strong
i've under adverse circumstances.
They entered the second half with
determination, and soon had a COM
handing lead, but not big enough to
take any chances and they extended
themselves to the limit. The score:
