President of the nation is need
ed in thing Of this sort. The
shipping proposal is also sure to
cause controversy. The Presi-
dent makes it plain that he has
no idea of the Governments
taking the place of private CAPT.
tai in the development of a
mercantile marine. His plan
proposes that the Government
shall withdraw when private
capital in sufficient abundance
finds it's way into these new
channels. What the Govern
ment should do, in his opinion,
is to open the way. But private
capital says that so long
as the Government is present
either as an actual or possible
competitor it can do nothing.
So the situation is deadlocked.
There will also be objection TO
some of the Presidents specific
suggestions regarding new taxes.
A tax of SO cents per horsepower
on automobiles and internal explo-
sion engines seems rather steep
Many authorities think that this
and the tax on gasoline are of
a class which would be most pro-
fitably left to the state govern
ments to administer for state
uses.
But these things are mere in
cidents. They are matters for
discussion, in Congress and out
of it. The President himself
does not lay streets on any spe-
cific recommendation. The i'm
portant thing is that the mes
sage as a whole is a ringing ap-
peal to the patriotism and good
sense of our people. 1t shows.
without cant, that this nation is
governed by decent ideals in its
relation with other nations. 1t
shows the utter puerility of the
charge that the Presidents de-
Tense proposals have about them
the slightest faint of militarism.
It shows that we have a clear
minded and right-thinking man
in the White House, and it will
increase the confidence with
which all good Americans. in a
time of unprecedented trouble,
face the future.

Good Work of County Agent.

Snow Hill. Md. October Thunder
the Smith-Lever Bill the federal gov
eminent made appropriation whereby
the different coun lies of the State can
get some help in employing man
trained in agriculture as county Agent.
The county must pay half of the salary
of this man.
The commissioners of Worcester
made an appropriation in January of
last year for this purpose and appoint
ed as County Agent, John F. Monroe,
of the Maryland Agricultural College.
In the past month Mr.. Monroe has
been waging crusade against an out
break of hog cholera. This disease is
prevented by the incubation of hogs
with serum manufactured in this
state by the Agricultural Experiment
Station. This serum is sold to the
farmers at actual cost of production.
Then, in counties where the commiss-
toner's have provided for a County
Agent. whose services are free to the
people, they are able to have their
hogs treated at merely the cost of the
serum.
In Worcester the County Agent has
helped treat in the past month, about
1000 hogs at cost to the farmers of
not over $500 and cost to the county
of about $25. The results obtained
from this months work mean a saving
to the farmers Of the county of at least
Sc, ZOO.
From the results of this cholera work
Worcester county farmers recommend
tnat all counties appoint an Agricul-
tural Agent, not only for hog cholera
work. but for the general good of
agricultural interests.

GET THE TRUE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT

But two weeks remain before
the great celebration of Christ
mas comes. The time is pro-
pitious for calling the attention
of the public to some things that
will help them and others in pre-
pairing for the time and prope.
celebration of that occasion.
The old adage, "The early bird
catches the worm" can be aptly
applied this season to shoppers.
The early shopper gets the pick of
Christmas goods and when they
are fresh and just opened up to
the public by the merchants.
The early shoppers not only do
this but they do much in the
cause of humanity when they
stop to think of the great relief
early shopping is to the thous-
ands Of merchants and their
clerks. The latter particularly
are on their feet from early in
the morning until late at night
and from now on will know little
of what real rest from weary
toll means.
Christmas is looked forward
to by many with longing and
happy thoughts while others can
only note its coming with aching
and painful hearts. The former
is true of those who have been
blessed with abundance of plen-
ty of this worlds goods, while
the latter is true of those who
are fortunate to have clothes on
their backs if that much, hence,
those of the former class while
doing their Christmas shopping
should be mindful of the thous-
ands of poor who have to see
Christmas come and go without
being able to enjoy it in spirit or
otherwise. While there are
thousands of poor whom each of
us do not know, never see or
hear of, nevertheless, there are
some living near us whose hearts
we can make glad at this season
in many ways.
With these things in view
then we urge the public to be-
gin at once and enter the true
spirit of the Christmas season
by observing at least these
things to which we have called
attention. There are other
things that will add to make
Christmas enjoyable but these
matters are most important and
if needed will make many hearts
happy and make Christmas one
long and happy memory. Md.
