This is entirely apart from the large
bonded Indebtedness for permanent
public improvements. We mean that
the Treasury of Maryland is about
one million dollars "short" -and
"short" because of the rotten" job
hunting, safeguarding, boss-ridden
performances of partisan, Legisla..
ture. Now, during all this time of
riotous extravaganza, of accumulat-
ing Indebtedness, Mr.. Harrington has
not only been presumably presiding
over the finances of the State, but he
has been a chief lieutenant of the
John Walter Smith organization,
which organization has bossed the
Legislature in its every performance.
What has Mr.. Harrington. or the or
ganization with which he has been for
years allied, done Tor tried to do) to
prevent the shameful condition into
which We are come? Mr.. Harrington
is going around the State claiming to
have "foreseen" this condition and to
have warned against it. So he did
and so did many others of us. But
Mr.. Harrington was in position to
do more than "foresee" and fore
warn" He was in a position to influ-
ence. But did he lift finger? The
Editor of the WING was a member
of the last Legislature and saw
great deal of Mr.. Harrington; saw
him spend days and days land nights
and nights fighting for the Shepherd
Oyster Bill. But he never saw Mr..
Harrington spend moment fighting
for the salvation of the States finan-
cial condition. If he wanted to make
a record as the States chief financial
officer, that was his opportunity. And
he failed. Failed too, where failure
amounts to so very much. What
right has a man, who was apparently
so Indifferent to the interests of the
people, who had no word to speak, no
deed to do for the States material
welfare, what right has such a man
to ask the people of this State to make
him Governor?
The Only right We can think of is
the Fright divine" of the John Walter
Smith organization to crown whom it
will.

MIR. HARRINGTON'S RECORD

How Mr.. Emerson c. Harrington
may fare in his contest for the Demo-
cratic gubernatorial nomination is no
concern of ours, from political
standpoint. But when Mr.. Harring-
ton undertakes to plead his cause on
the basis of his record as State Comp
troller, We feel at entire liberty to
suggest that he has not leg 10 stand
on. As I mater cf fact, Mr.. Hal
rington has been for four years the
State Comptroller and has known, tor
ought to have KNOWN the lamentable
character of the States fiscal system
and its increasing financial Difficult
ties. And yet nobody knows of sin
gle thing which Mr.. Harrington has
done in all those four years, or of
single idea which he has advanced, to
help the situation or to even increase
the efficiency of his office as the ad-
ministrator of the States finances.
This is not much of record to
afford any encouragement to Mary
land citizens who reflect on the posi-
bility of Mr.. Harrington becoming
Governor. Neither is it record on
which Mr.. Harrington is entitled to
ask Maryland citizens to make him
Governor.
But this is not all-nor the worst

Big Decrease OF Crabs

Swepson Earle, engineer to the
Shellnsh Commission and who has
taken a deep interest in conservation
OF the products of the Chesapeake
Bay, declares that hard and soft shell
crabs are becoming more scarce each
year because of the lack of protec-
tive measures.
1T is a fact ard not theory that
crabs are becoming scarce in Mary
land waters said Mr.. Earle. ''ln
1910 we sounded the warning that
something should be done to prevent
the destruction of female crabs and to
prevent the destruction of small hard
crabs, which were caught and Destroy
ed promiscuously. The present season
marks great scarcity of crabs on the
Western Shore, and in the Patuxent
River the residents claim that they
have less crabs than in 35 years.
THE crab season prior to 1910
started about the LIST of May and ran
until the last of September, when the
fishermen engaged in the oyster in
dustry. For the past five seasons the
crabs appear in our waters for a much
shorter period, an dthe short season
means thousands of dollars lost to
lIOSC SIlSdSSu Tie
"The Maryland Shellfish Commits
sion has received a number of letters
and personal appeals to do something
to save the crab industry, and these
appeals are coming from the tidewater
counties. The crab industry has been
worth about a million dollars to Mary
land and gives employment and live
lihood to thousands of men. women
ard children"
Mr.. Earle prepared a bill. which
had the approval of the late Governor
Crothers and the United States Bur-
eau of Fisheries and had it offered
in the Maryland legislature in 1912.
This bill would have given the protec-
ton and at the same time concurred
with the laws of Virginia. The legis-
lature turned the bill down and moth
irg has been done since.
The bill prepared by Mr.. Earle and
which was not acted upon by the Sen
ate Committee on Chesareake Bay and
ferred, aid down stringent rules
limiting the size of crabs to be caught
and sold and gave protection to egg
bearing crabs.

Dairy Farmers Hit

A change from condensed and evap-
GRATED to matted milk production is
the only hope held out under the De-
mocratic Tree trade tariff, by H. B.
Miller, to those engaged in the milk
industry in the Pacific Northwest. and
even this alternative may give but a
temporary impulse to the trade.
Mr.. Miller, former United States
Consul in China, was recently COM
missioned by the University Of Ore
gol to ascertain the reason for the
depression in the milk industry in
thta State, ard his thorough study of
the subject has convinced him be-
You'd a doubt that the Stagnation is
due to the foreign competition en-
Gendered by the Underwood tariff law
which placed condensed milk on the
free list while at the same time tax
ing the manufacturer for his raw ma
terials-sugar and tin plate-and
giving no refund for the consumption
thereof. This is typical example of
the underwood Idea, which, briefly
stated, is taxation of raw materials
and free trade or revenue only tariff
on the manufactured article.
Condensed milk is not listed separa-
te.y il the official reports. but the i'm
portation Of fresh and condensed
milk under Democratic law for the
period of October 1913, to June 1915,
inclusive, was valued at S1,056,23
compared with $125.452. under Repub-
lican law October 1912, to June 1913.
For the nine months ending March.
1915, We imported this product to the
value of S1,945, 541. No revenue for
the Government and another slap at

A nuisance from which a number of
families on the west side of the river
are suffering is the presence of poul
try thieves, and in spite of the efforts
put forth by those who have suffer
ed and also by the police to detect the
thieves or to get some trace of the
poultry which has been taken, no tan
gible clue has yet been secured. Those
who have reported the loss of hens
are w. H. Gannett of Western avenue,
Charles Hutchinson Of Sewall street
and A. E. Brown of Green street The
number stolen from the Gannett place
is II and from the Brown place five,
but Mr.. Hutchinson has been the
heaviest loser, having had SO stolen,
and % of these were taken no longer
ago than Friday night. City Marshal
Harwood has the matter in hand and
has been doing everything possible to
locate the thieves but thus far without
success. A man was kept in the woods
on lower Sewall street one night,
where lot Of feathers had been
found. and one of the police officers
looked over the headquarters of gang
OF tramps down near the trotting park
with the idea that perhaps these
knights of the road had a taste for
chicken, but though the place was
given a careful inspection not even a
bone was found to indicate that the
tramps had included anything in the
poultry line in their bill Of fare, The
hunt is still in progress and every :
thing possible will be done to locate
the thieves and bring them to justice

THE "MAGGOT", A SIMPLE
TRAP FOR THE HOUSE FLY

Washington, April ia maggot
trap which will practically prevent the
breeding of the house fly is des-
cribed in new bulletin Of the U. S.
Department of Agriculture, No. 200,
IA Maggot Trap in Practical Use; an
Experiment in House-Fly Control"
The investigators who carried on this
experiment at the Maryland Agricul-
tural College declare that during Au-
gust and September at least IS per
cent. of the larvae breeding in the
manure were destroyed, and although
the trap was not so efficient when the
weather became colder, even then it
greatly reduced the number Of flies.
The principle of the trap is simple,
it is easy to construct and the expense
is said to be probably less in the long
run than the investment which many
farmers now make in screens for their
dwellings, and sprays and f1y-nets for
their live stock. In it's toughest out
lines the trap consists of concrete
basin with a latticed wooden platform
erected upon it to hold the manure
The basin is connected by a drain
pipe Will S1iloh CoACActe clSlCTu.
The bottom of the basin is filled with
water into which the maggots breed
ing in the manure drop. as they are
about to turn in the pupa or chrysalis
stage, and are drowned. At frequent
intervals the water is run off into the
cistern and is then pumped back on
the manure pile. In this way all the
liquid manure is saved.
The successful operation of this trap
rests upon several facts connected
with the habits of the house-fy
which have been thoroughly estab-
lished by observation. The adult fl
lays it's eggs in fresh manure. There
they remain until the larva stage IS
almost over and the insects are about
to enter the pupa or chyrsalis stage
At this time pronounced tendency to

migrate is evident. In consequence if
the manure is placed upon a platform
with latticework bottom the larvae,
while migrating, will fall through
these openings into the water in the
basin below. In the case Of the ex-
periments at the Maryland Agricul-
tural College a careful count showed
that between July % and October l
about 112, 200 larvae were killed in this
way. This, however, does not include
the number that were picked up from
the basin by sparrows or poultry.
Altogether it is estimated that during
the warm weather the efficiency of the
trap was probably 80 per cent. Later,
when the temperature was lower, the
traps success was not so marked.
This was accounted for by the fact
that when the air is much colder than
the manure heap the larvae will not
attempt to leave the heap and there
fore will not fall into the basin.
Another difficulty experienced arose
from mosquitoes using the water In
the basin and the cistern to breed in
This was overcome by cleaning out
the basin at regular intervals and by
sprinkling little oil over the surface
of the water in the cistern.
Properly constructed such a trap Of
fers no obstacles to the convenient
and economical handling of manure.
1t is essential, however. that each
days addition to the heap should be
sprinkled with sufficient water to keep
the manure moist but not enough to
cause teaching. The details of the
construction of the trap are contained
in the bulletin already mentioned. This
particular trap was designed to hold
the manure produced by three horses
for three months, but there is no rea-
son why larger quantities should nos
be treated in the same way. by build
ing larger traps or by building several
of smaller size.
