There are tens of thousands of acres
of ground in Garrett county that could
be protitably used for sheep pasture.
These acres today have no valne as
revenue producer. They lie idle be-
cause not tlllabIe On them sheep
would thrive and bring to the farmer a
snug sum for improved farm machinery,
for better grade of cattle. and for
improved conditions on the farm for
storing crops and preventing loss
through waste.
There are too many worthless dogs
and too few sheep today in Garrett
county. Within a short distance of
my home there are families with from
one to several dogs to pay taxes on
who cannot pay the merchants the
small accounts they owe for the ne
cessities of life, not one merchant but
every merchant who trusted them for
their daily bread. They have no more
need for dog than they have for an
elephant.
Garrett county ought to be the sheep
producing county of this state The
mountains and waste places should be
covered with flocks of sheep. We need
to awaken to the great possibilities be-
fore US in this line OF farm work.

Why Not A Canning Factory.

In the eastern part Of the State pre- p-
aratlons are being made to establish
several new canning factories. So ex-
tensive has this business grown that
about $13, 900, 900 worth of fruits, vege-
tables and oysters are packed annually
in Baltimore and more than 1000 people
are employed in this industry.
The growing of Strawberries, peas,
corn, tomatoes and other vegetables
have in many instances superseded the
aforetime staple crops, wheat and corn.
Recently the writer ate for his sup
per near the town of Oakland canned
beans put up by the home folks. They
were equal to any canned beans we had
ever before eaten and much superior to
some put up by factories for flavor,
tenderness and freedom from strings.
They were delicious.
Why not some one or more ladies'
take up the question OF home canned
goods and put them on the market. A
canning factory, centrally located would
pay in Garrett county. The coal mines
and lumber camps near by would con-
sumo large amount of canned goods.
The cultivation of vegetables would
provide work for the boys and girls.
Why not can vegetables for home
use? 1t would be a great saving in
family expenses and superior article
of canned goods.
The splendid farms around Oakland
would be great vegetable producing
plants. The soil is well adapted for
that purpose, as is proven by the splen-
did cauliflower and other prize vege-
tables raised by the Henry Weber
Sons Co.
THE REPUBLICAN would suggest that
the Board of Trade take this matter up
and look over the possibilities of one or
more canning factories for Garrett
county.
