part near the tip; to then take these
kernels and carefully lay them in the
numbered squares and also label the
ears to correspond to the numbers Of
the squares; to place these ears in a
pail of moistened sawdust, or cover
them with moistened paper; to place

filled with corn in warm room,
and after six or seven days to
unfold the little cloth bundle and see
what has happened. We call the whole
thing rag doll, but the Chicago Board
Of Trade, through its representative,
Mr.. Ball, estimates that this little
scheme which is being carried out by
the rural schools will be the means Of
increasing the corn crop of the United
States by at least one half billion dol,
lars without increasing the area de-
voted to corn a single acre. II Is not
a matter without any importance when
a magazine of the standing of the Out.
look will give 1t two pages in single
issue
Not only is it practical for the boys
and girls of the school to study the
vitality of corn, but 1t is profitable for
them to make a study of the selection
of seed corn, of how to cure it, and
even how to shell and grade it. They
will, through the study of the ear,
learn which LIS the best corn Of the To-
cality, and in probably this locality, as
many others have already done, will
make Itself famous in the production OF
q particular variety of special merit

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inf1amed con-
lition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infiamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
.atarrh) that cannot be cured by Hail.

The Prince Georges Enquirer,
Epper Mar boro', Nd

Gentlemen:-
fn a recent letter to your own sand
other papers in the State, | pointed out
the lmpoi lance of the referendum con-
stitutional amendment to be submitted
80 the electors of the State this fall, and
without repeating its substance, | will
k this occasion to say that its pur-
DOSE is to enable ten thousand voters of
me State or as TO local laws. eight per
cent of the citizens of the County to
cause to be submitted to the voters Of
he State or County as the case nj ght
DE, any law passed by the Legislature,
with certain excerpts, which may be Pc
.ltioned by them To be so submitted.
Let me make a few general obserVa-
lions.
Without particularizing, the State of
MARYLAND needs this amendment, and
may be in very urgent need of it at the
conclusion of any legislative session.
In every State where the referendum
xists it has been called into play and
acts which have been passed by the
Legislature and which were contrary
10 the popular interests or desires have
been checked and repudiated at the
polls. Maryland does not differ from
any of them with respect to the
necessity.
The referendum, after all, is nothing
bat exercise Of power by its original
possessor. In every day life, we think
! i long while before we give power OF
attorney to anybody to bind and pledge
; US without referring to US. We may
appoint an agent to do particular act
| but we are not given TO appointing
agents who may control our liberty and
our property without giving us a chance

School Athletics

Report of Special Committee ap-
pointed by the the County School
Superintendents at Ocean City, July
End, 1914.
At meeting of this Special Com
mittee held at the City Club, Balti-
more. on August 2Sth, there were
present Messrs Cook. Grimes, Holloway
Morelock and Philips.
The Committee recommends that the
cooperation of the Public Athletic
League in the conduct of athletic
meets, particularly in connection with
educational school Rally Days, be
accepted.
The Public Athletic League is to
furnish the medals as prizes Tor the
athletic meet. They are also to seno
score sheets, entry blanks, and
necessary instruction and forms.
The county is to furnish the programs
and officials and also send the winners OF
the different athletic events, at the
county's expense, to meet to be held
in Baltimore when the League will try
to secure entertainment for the, boys
in the homes of the local school boys.
The plan is to have each county con-
duet an athletic meet in the Spring
with the cooperation of the Publ.
Athletic League. and then to have d
Estate meet in Baltimore.
1t was agreed that the boys shoulo
be classified in accordance with theil
weight and age, the dividing line of age
being sixteen years on or before Jan
uary 1st, 1915. The weight classified
lions are to be 80 pounds and under
95 pounds and under, lis pounds anc
under, Junior unlimited Weight anc
Senior Unlimited Weight. Boys will
be weighed on the day of the m ct il
the costume in which they are to com
pete.
A boy may enter only two events il
each meet, one running event and one
field event. If the relay team is in
complete to boy may compete that day
in the dash of his respective weight.
Eventually, the League plans to have
a medical examination made of every
boy who completes.
The events decided upon by the Com
ni5tee are as follow: 80-pound class
edwards Dash, Standing Broad Jump
Base ball Throw for stance. 44U-yards

LIME NECESSARY FOR SWEET
CLOVER GROWTH.
Does Not Flourish In Eastern Soils
That Lack Lime.
NICHOLAS SCHMINTZ.
Maryland Agricultural College
Experiment Station Service.

On our Maryland soils and most OF
the soils in aeighboring states. espe-
cially in the Coastal Plain section, it
Is almost as difficult to grow sweet
clover as it is to grow alfalfa. In
other words, we find that in such of
limestone areas require lime and in
oculation for the successful growth of
sweet clover the same rs is required
for alfalfa. This has been proven
quite thoroughly in many instances;
for example, the writer had a notion
inoculate the soil for alfalfa in the
East was to first grow sweet clover
at the same time this crop would be
increasing the fertility-but he found
that in practically every case the
sweet clover refused to grow unless
the soil was lined and inoculated.
In the higher elevated section, where
cowpeas will not grow well, it may
under some conditions be advisable to
SOW sweet clover, after lining and in
oculating, and then allow the land to
remain idle for a few years in order to
give the sweet clover a chance to build
up the fertility. But even this could
not be considered favorably where 1t
is necessary to derive an income from
the land while it Is being improved
For some reason, livestock in the
East has not as yet taken as kindly to
pasturing on sweet clover as it has in
the South and West. Along our water
fronts in Maryland we have many
farms that have had sweet clover
growing on them for generations, but
it is seldom that cattle eat it in grazing.
They may go through a wheat stubble
field, eat the grass and other clovers,
but leave the sweet clover. There IL
no question, however, but that they
could be taught by starvation to eat
and thrive on it, but 1t is doubtful X
they will thrive any better on sweet
clover than on the common clovers.
Sweet clover does not cure into hay
as well as alfalfa and the ordinary
olovers. In curing sweet clover the
leaves shatter of very badly, 80 that
unless a great deal of care in the proc
ess is exercised the hay will be little
more than stems; these, however, arc
usually relished by all livestock If the
crop is cut early enough 80 that the
stems are not too tough and woody.
