Eritz's lnteIIiaence.

Some dogs show great intelligence.
Fritz was a. large, pure blooded collie.
He was very proud OF being with the
boys, and one day they took him when
they were going bathing
They bathed in a pond which was
crossed by railroad having one track.
While the boys bathed Fritz sat on
the track and watched them.
Suddenly, to the horror of the boys,
a train appeared. There was no time
for the dog to get off the bridge, and
it was too high for the dog to jump.
The boys turned away to avoid the
sight of poor Fritz's DEATH To their

Indian Corn.


When the white men first came to
America, they did not know how to
plant or use corn. The Indians taught
the white men how to plant it.
Corn grows well in every state In
the United States, and is the most Inn
portant grain crop that we have
The greater corn growing states are
Ohio. Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas.
Nebraska and Missouri. These seven
states grow about half of the corn
raised in the United States
In the south, where cotton can be
grown so successfully. less attention
has been given to corn raising. There
fore the southern states nave boughd
chiefly from the corn belt.
Corn can be raised successfully in

raising it before. e., -
In former years the southern Farm
err did not study the cultivation of
corn as he did the cotton plant

Two Senator's Next Year.

The fact has been overlooked that If

Tor Maryland to elect two Senators next
year. one for Mr.. Lees unexpired term.
since the Senator selected by the Governor
could serve only until after the next cleo
ton, and the other for the full term of six
years, beginning on March 4, 1917.
Mr. Lee is now serving the term for
which the late Isidor Rayner was elected
Events may so shape themselves that 1t
is possible that three men will have had
slices Of Mr. Rayner's term.
If Mr. Lee is not nominated and elected
Governor he may be candidate next year
to succeed himself. W. CabelI Bruce. chief
counsel to the Public Service Commission,
has already announced himself candi-
date for a Democratic nomination for this
term. Gov. GoldsbOrough is being urged
by some Of his friends to forego his ambi-
ton to be candidate to succeed himself
and to hold himself in reserve as candi-
date for the Republican nomination for the
long term in the Senate. II is said that
former Senator VIM. p. jackson has his
eye on this prize.
