Holy Week

With the blessing and distribution of

churches the most solemn week of the
year was inaugurated and the church
of the death of the Saviour.
In the city churches, one of the
principal features of the services is
the tenebrae, Wednesday, Thursday
Friday nights. AS prayers are recited
and hymns sung, candles on the affairs
are extinguished one by one, until only
one is left burning. Then all are re-
lighted.
The holy oils, to be used in the adj
ministration of the sacraments of bap
tism, confirm alton, extreme JUNCTION and
holy orders during the ensuing year,
were blessed at the Cathedral Thursday
by Bishop Corrigan.
Holy Thursday two hosts were bless
ed at the mass. After the "Gloria"
no bells will be rung until the "Gloria",
on Holy Saturday morning.
After the Holy Thursday mass there
was procession to the repository,
where one of the consecrated hosts was
placed.
The host will be taken back to the
main altar Friday for the ''mass of the
presanctifed. arter which there will
be veneration of the cross. This day
the altar is stripped of all adornment
and the tabernacle door is left open
On Holy Saturday the affairs are
blessed and the paschal candle set up.

Lime WORKS WONDERS
IN MARYLAND SOIL
Makes Possible An Increased Yield OF
Two Barrels Per Acre.

For the past nix years Illinois farm.
erse under the direction of their Agri-
cultural College have been applying
the remarkable results obtained from
lime tests made by the Maryland Ex-
pertinent Station, the results of which
were published In 1906. Experiments
covering twelve years showed that the
difference in yield between land I'M
lined and land treated with lime car
Donate or ground shells was in an
average of four corn crops, i've bar
rels per acre. The least difference
shown between unlimed land and any
other form of lime used was three bar
age increase of from three fourths to
one and a quarter barrels of corn per
acre a year So far an investment OF
two to three dollars an acre the return
Der year was 81 to S. and for four
crops for the same investment in lime,
SIS to s24 These results are obtain
able on most unlimed soils of South
ern Maryland and would mean an in
crease in income to the average farm
of $500 to s400 a year as the case
might be- If only one-fourth of the
cultivated lands of Maryland showed
a similar response to the use of lime
it would make possible an annual in
crease in the net returns from the
farms of over five millions of dollars.
Such results would certainly justify
the investment of $4,000 in soil in
vestigations as proposed by the Gov
ernor in his message to the Legisla-
fIIro.

Hicks for April

Hank to the song the prophet sings

soft winds from the Southland, of in

introduces her in thraldom. bound by
reactionary storm period inherited
from March. "a low barometer, fol
lowed by marked change to warmer,
with storm clouds. rain. hail and thun
der, need not surprise anyone from lst

extends from about the 18th to the 9th
and will dole out cloudinesS and precipl-
tation. BY the time the second re-
dictionary storm comes along, centrallZ-
ing on the 18th and 18th, the warm
South wind will get in its work, aided
and abetted by the fact that 1.-The
Moon is on the celestial equator on the

the famous warning of Juliet to Ro-

bear the responsibility for prolonged
storm conditions, April showers, squalls

Moon does not mind, so we should
worry during the brief change to cooler

Newspaper compositors and men who
edit copy, no matter how eagle-eyed
they may be, sometimes allow errors to
"get by" that are either laughable Or
humiliating. A Chicago paper, in re-
porting political meeting, said that
the audience rent the air with their
shouts. Another Chicago paper re-
ported that the propeller Alaska was
leaving port with a cargo of 10000
bushels of cats. A Buffalo paper, in
describing the scene when Roosevelt
took oath of office of President, said it
was a spectacle never to be forgotten
when Roosevelt before the chief of the
Supreme Court and a few witnesses,
took his simple bath.

Some Road Questions.

Speaking to the Board of County
Commissioners of Howard County, for
mer State Senator German brought out
some intere sting phases of the road
question, says the Annapolis Advertiser
Republican. Mr. German suggested that
the roads were costing too much, owing
largely to the fact that automobile
highways were being constructed in
many cases where road costing much
less to construct and maintain would
fulfill all the needs of the great major
ity who use them.
The discussion is very pertinent to all
the counties in the State, including
Anne Arundel While the advent of
the automobile must be recognized,
and due measures taken to deal with it,
the day of the old farm wagon has not
yet passed by any means. 1t will be
many years before the horse and the
horsedrawn vehicle can be given up,
and road legislation. as on all other
matters, should be in the interest of the
majority.
1t is easy to perceive the tendency to
make the interests of the automobilist
primary in the matter of road building.
There can be no question that many
miles of expensive roads have been
built in this county and throughout the
State where the interests of the aver
age farmer and taxpayer would have
been equally as we'll served by road
costing a third as much. 1t is a very
serious matter in view of the over
whelming burden of taxation now
borne by the average citizen of the
country district of Maryland
Again, the roads built with the inter-
ests Of the automobiles primarily in
view are not always the best for use by
horse-drawn vehicles There are miles
of hard-surfaced roads in this county
that are absolutely dangerous in bad
and wet weather so that the tendency
to favor the less numerous class is
again illustrated.
Our Legislators and commissioners are
duty bound to consider this matter.
The questions between the motor-pro-
PEELED and horse-drawn vehicles are
grave ones in the county, just as are
those in the cities between the mo torists
and the pedestrians. Possibly. the final
solution will be the construction of
great boulevards for the automobiles,
from revenues derived from their
lcanseS

lITTLE PIGS MAY

c. L. OPPERMAN
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

Milk is more digestible for little
pigs than any ether food. They should
not have any coarse feeds at first.
When they are two weeks old they
may have a little shelled corn and
some slop in q trough by themselves.
They should have plenty OF trough
room so as not to crowd each other
and make runts. Little pigs, to be
kept in good growing condition should
have good pasture and some grain

of shorts at the rate OF four and a
half to five pounds q day per 100
pounds weight will make good. cheap
pork at an astonishing rate.
When the pig is five to seven
months old he is ready to fatten and
finish. For this purpose, snapped ear
corn and water are second to no other
feeds, provided you are not going to
feed longer than two months. A ce-
ment feeding floor is very desirable
since 1t can be kept clean and does
away with the danger Of the pigs
taking up dirt and worms with their
feed. Pigs SO treated should fetch the
top market price At seven to ten
months old.

the blunder of 1911. Here and
there Anti-Lee politicians have
been heard to raise the cry that
Lee has weakened" and no
longer retains his hold upon the
Democratic voters of the State,
but this feeble and senseloss cry
is more than answered by very
significant signs of the Junior
Senator's actual growing
strength, which are cropping out
in unexpected quarters since the
announcement of Lees candi-
dacy.

POTATO SEED FROM
NORTH NOT NEEDED
Seed Grown In Garrett County Gives
Higher Yields Than Northern
Grown.
T. H. WHITE.


Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.
In the spring of 1911, JAS. D. Harvey,
Of Deer Park, Garrett County, for
warded to the Maryland Experiment
Station a sample Of the Empire State
potato. He said it grew especially
we'll under his conditions, and he had
been growing it without change of
seed for thirty years. 1t was planted
alongside of a sample of the same
variety from dealer in Northern New
York The growth and appearance
we're almost the same. They with
stood the drouth better than many Of
the other varieties and were the best
County seed yielded at the rate of
twenty bushels per acre more than
the New York seed.
Experiments begun rs early as the
spring of 1908 along this line indicate
that the cool climate Northern seed is
grown in accounts for its superiority
,vsr home grown seed. SO the good
results from Garrett County seed are
probably due to the cooler climate it
Is grown in. There is no good reason
why farmers living in the mountain
Gus districts of Maryland should not
supply the Eastern and tidewater
counties with better seed than can be
grown i'll Maine. This could, of course,
best be done by concerns or associa-
tons that could handle the potato seed
in carload lots and keep Maryland
money in the State.

County Commissioners.

The County Commissioners met on
Monday last to sign the levy books and
fix the county tax rate. After consid-
arabic discussion it was decided to
make it 81 10 on the 500, which con-
sidering the ever increasing expenses
of the county, we think is very fair
rate.
The School Commissioners appeared
before the board asking for an increase
in the appropriation of $4,000 for
school purposes, which was refused.

months was awarded to the PRINCE
