VIEW OF MOUNT RAINIER
Panoramic Picture Issued by Govern
ment Printing Office.

A panoramic view of Mount Rainier
National Park, showing the charac-
teristic features of the landscape, has
Just been issued by direction OF Sec
rotary Lane. This panorama shows
in a striking manner the great cen
trail ice mass and the ridges that sur
round it. Ten colors were used in
the printing, the ice being in light
blue, the meadows and valleys in light
green, the streams and lakes in blue,
the cliffs and ridges in combinations
of colors, and the roads in light
brown. The lettering is printed in
light brown, which is easily read on
close inspection, but which merges
into the basic colors when the sheet is
held at some distance. This view,
which may be purchased from the
Superintendent of Documents, Govern
ment Printing Office, Washington, d.
c., for 25 cents, measures 10 by 20
inches, and is on the scale of 1 mile
to the inch. 1t is based on accurate
surveys and gives an excellent idea
of the configuration of the surface as
it would appear to person moving
over it in an aeroplane.

Yellow Springs to Have Fair.

AT meeting held at the home Of
Miss Hester Morsell a committee was
chosen to arrange for district fair
to be held on September II and IS.
Premiums will be given for best
exhibits of the products of field, gar
den and orchard. Special prizes will
also be offered for the most attrac-
tive looking home in the district; the
most excellent exhibit made by any
boy or girl under fifteen years of age;
the prettiest exhibit of flowers made
by anyone.
The famous Yellow Springs Concert
band will participate in the exer-
cises. Other features are being plan
ned, such as discussing of rural
problems by persons who have had
special training in their respective
lines and readings, recitations and
songs, whose purpose is solely that
of entertainment.
On June fifth, public meeting will
be held at the village hall for the pur-
pose of stimulating interest in the
September fair and also to provide
an evening of entertainment for the
citizens of the community.
The wish has been expressed that
the readers of The Post be careful
not to get this fair confused with the
Frederick fair, which occurs one
month later.

ming, 1t is not the only benefit to be
derived. By reducing the tree crop
this year, there is more likelihood of
good crop next year. Much of the So
called habit of alternate bearing in
apple trees Is due to their overbearing
one year and recuperating the next.
Many broken limbs could be averted
by proper thinning, and much labor
saved in propping.
For the best results the thinning
should commence Immediately after
the June drop. 1t is natural to expect
that the sooner the remaining fruit
has the entire support of the tree, the
better the results will be. Broken
limbs may be prevented if the thin
ming is done in August, but the other
benefits will not be so pronounced
In other words, less Of the trees
energies will be thrown away and more
turned to the remaining fruit if the
thinning is done early in the season.
AS to what extent the fruit should
actually be thinned is very largely q
AOCdl plODl0lu' II uOPOhuS upOh sum
conditions as soil, age of trees, vari
cites, cultivation and pruning.
Generally thinning the fruit to a
minimum distance of to 6. inches,
gives satisfactory results. Trimmed
fruit is larger and usually better col
ored and favored than unthinned
fruit, and the yield is just is large
in bulk and sells at higher price
The fruit must all be picked some
time, and the culls are more quickly
and more easily removed at thinning
time than at harvesting time. The
average cost of thinning is about 10c
per tree"

PURCHASES A LARGE FARM.
Pratby j. KimmeI Buys the William
ii. Derrick Place.

The William H. DERRICK farm, of
407 acres, located between Mt Airy
and New London, has been sold to
Pratby ]. Kimmel, of near Mt. Airy,
through real estate and insurance
agent, Grayson H. Staley. While the
exact consideration is not known it
is believed that about $4,000 was paid
for the property. The farm lies along
the old Annapolis road and is consid-
cred one of the largest and best farms
in Frederick county. The land is de-
voted entirely to agricultural purposes
and is in high state of cultivation
The farm at one time belonged to the
late Louis F. DERRICK, father of Will
liam H. DERRICK The property has
been improved with fine stone man
sion, new barn and all necessary
outbuildings.

WHY Glass Cracks.

You have learned by experience
that cold water will crack a hot glass,
or hot water a cold glass But did
you know that a thick glass will
crack much more readily under such
treatment than thin glass? When
hot water strikes cold glass, for in
stance, the heat of the water is quick
ly communicated to the glass next it,
causing the glass to expand. If the
glass is thin the heat is quickly COM
municated to both sides of the glass
so that they expand together without
damage. But if the glass is thick the
heat is slow in getting through and
the side next the hot water expands
so much more rapidly than the other
side that the glass is cracked.-The
American Boy.

SOUTHERN CORN LEAF.BEETLE
Pest Often Escapes Observation But
Does Much Damage,

Within the past fortnight serious
invasions of the corn leaf-beetle have
occurred, says a bulletin of the U. S.
Department of Agriculture. In many
of the fields attacked in the vicinity
of Charleston, Mo-, it has been nee
essary to replant Other fields have
suffered less on account of being on
higher land Another of the out
breaks has been reported from Utopia,
Texas, where serious depredations
have been worked to corn by this pest.
At this time the beetles can be killed,
according to the experts of the Blu
reau of Entomology. by use of pois-
oned bait composed of 25 pounds of
wheat bran, one pound of Paris green,
one gallon of loW-grade molasses, the
juice of three oranges, and sufficient
water added to bring the mixture to a
stiff dough A heaping teaspoonful of
this mixture scattered about each hill
of corn where the beetles are at work,
proves very attractive to these in
sects, especially applied in late af-
ternoon. If the corn is drilled, the
mixture should be scattered along the
drill rows.
This pest has become of considerable
Importance in the past few years and
is found in the southern half of the
United States, but up to the present
it has not been discovered in Ten
nessee, North Carolina, South Caro-
lima or Georgia. 1t extends as far
north as southern Iowa, central IL
linois and central Ohio. 49,,
Besides the method of mirled
the beetle as described abo city.
cleaning up of all rubbish in thf@as
fields early in the fall, especiaibes i
the low black soils, and delayiL4-s-ne
planting of corn in the spring are two
methods of lessening the damage from
the southern corn leaf-beetle.
The beetle itself is a small, dark
bronzed insect about 316 of an inch
long and about 1-3 as wide, usually
more or less covered with soil When
disturbed they drop from the plant
on which they are feeding, and hide
so successfully that the farmer is Of
ten unable to discover why his corn
is so seriously damaged
The adult beetles lay their eggs
early and always in the vicinity of the
corn plant, after which they disappear
from the fields. The larvae hatch in
from 6 to Is days and feed on the
corn plants or on cocklebur. Some
where between the first of July and
the middle of August the larvae enter
the pupa stage, which appears to last
approximately Is days, when the bee
tie of the first generation energies.
Between then and Information early
in the fall, the beetles feed among
other things on the kernels of unripe
ears of corn, and on the buds of cock
leburs. In cornfields they hibernate
under piles of corn husks, fodder and
| shocks, etc, to emerge again in the
spring to lay their eggs. But the bee
ties frequently appear in destructive
numbers on young growing corn plant
ed on sod lands where the ground had
not been cultivated the previous year.

BUSINESS RECORDS NECESSARY
TO SUCCESSFUL FARMING.
Dairy Production Much Increased In
Hartford County Herd.
G. E. WOLCOTT,
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

The dairy farmer is a producer and
manufacturer. He produces the raw
material in the form of feed; and from
the feed manufactures a finished prod
uct. The finished product may be milk,
cream or butter. The producing end
OF the business may be successful;
that is the farmer may grow the crops
cheaply enough so that the market
price will show a profit over the cost
of production. However, If business
methods are not used in changing the
raw material into the finished product
enough may be lost to wipe out the
profit from growing the crops. The
crops when turned over to the dairy
COW should be charged to her at their
market value and system of records
should be kept to determine whether
she is using the feed so as to return
a profit. The manufacturing end OF
dairy farming should be profitable as
well as the producing end
The individuality Of the COW and
the method of feeding her are the fac
tors which, to great extent, deter.
mine whether or not she Is profitable
Where no records of production have
been kept, there are sure to be some
COWS that do not return profit for
their feed, BY disposing Of these
COWS, the average production of the
herd will be increased. Some cows
are fed more than they require; others
are fed less than they require. If the
feed, if adjusted so that each COW is
receiving the feed she requires, the
production and profit will both be in.
creased.
The advantages that may be ex.
pected when records Of production are
kept are shown by the results of the
Hartford County Cow Testing Associa.
ton, which has completed three years.
work in record keeping The first
year the average COW produced 4,786
pounds of milk, 234 pounds of fat, the
profit above the cost of feed amounted
to $685.. During the first year the
lowest producing cows were sold.
Better methods of feeding and absence
of the poorest" cows increased the
production the second year to SPAS
pounds of milk, 264 pounds Of fat.
The profit above the cost of feed was
$6S.9S. The production the third year
was still further increased, the average
being SITS pounds Of milk, 276 pounds
of fat, with profit above the cost of
feed amounting to $3.50
These records clearly show that the
production and profit may be increased
from year to year by using business
methods in the manufacturing end OF
tho dairy farming industry.
