what has become of them? They have
gone back to other vocations poorer than
when they started in the peach business.
During the last few years there has
been a tendency to repeat this phase.
Merchants, bankers, lawyers and others
have been wondering whether they could
make money out of peach trees. 1t is
not unusual to hear men successful men
in their line-talk of planting 100, 200,
500 and even a 200 acres to peaches,
just as though the only thing needed is
to plant. Ninety per cent of these men
are doomed to failure before they start.
They are doomed because they do not

Annual Report.

The first annual report of the State
, Industrial Accident Commission was
received at this office this week. The
report covers the year beginning Nov.
|, 1914, and ending Nov. /, 1915,
and relates to the law known as the
Workmen's Compensation Act, which
requires employers of labor to insure
the employe against accident. A
section of the report says:
During the first few months the
offices of the Commission were crowd
ed with employers eager to secure in
formation to enable them to comply
with the Act. More than a hundred
blank forms for the use of employers
and employees were printed and dis
tributed and a standard form of pol
icy to be used by insurance carriers
was prepared. During the first year
beginning Nov. LIST, 1914, and end
ing Oct. 81, 1915, twelve thousand
employers insured the payment of
compensation under the Act. OF
these, / ,035 insured with stock COM
panies, S42 in the State Accident
Fund, and 1913 were granted the
right to carry their own insurance,
each self-insurer giving bond, except
in the case of public utilities regulat-
ed by the State, the State itself,
Counties and Municipalities.
"20,34S accidents were reported
during the year. OF these, 12l were
fatal.
There were filed with the Com
mission during the first year ended
Oct. 31st, 1915, 3.443 claims, 1852
fatal and 81 fatal. Of these,
compensation was awarded in 2,977
and disallowed in 1919 leaving 267 in
the course of investigation. 249
claims were contested, resulting in
hearings held at the principal office
in Baltimore and, to serve the con-
venience of parties interested, resid-
ing in other parts of the State, in
Hagerstown, Cumberland, and Cam
bridge. 273 of such formal hearings
were held during the year.
The great value of the Law in af

Weather Prophet Visits
Thurmont.

Prof. Willis L. Moore, former chief
of the U. S. Weather Bureau, treat
ed the people Of Thurmont with an
excellent lecture on the weather.
and the vagaries and uncertainties
thereof.
Prof. Moore handled the subject in
a manner that made it most interest
ing, and those who failed to attend
this lecture were the losers thereby.
1t was explained how the storms
form and how they travel and just
what influences their paths across the
United States, Prof. Moore stating
that we originate and send over to
Europe the storms that cross our
continent.
Few people were aware of the shape
storms assume in travelling, they be-
ing spiral in form and I miles high.
Prof. Moore informed the audience
that at an altitude of 5000 or 5000
fee, there was no difference between
January and July temperature, it
being about 60 degrees below zero,
and the dipping down of these high
areas of cold in the hot weather ac-
counted for the sudden change to cold
weather, thus dispelling the common
claim heard, 1T must have hailed
somewhere it is 80 cold"
The Community Club deserves
much praise in having Prof. Moore
lecture to the people of Thurmont, as
it is an unusual thing to have a man
of such prominence and ability to
visit small communities like this.

Hot Water for
Sick Headaches
Tells why everyone should drink
hot water with phosphate
In it before breakfast.

Hec dache of any kind, is caused by
administration means self
poisoning. Liver and bowel poisons
called toxins, sucked into the blood
through the lymph ducts. excite the
heart which pumps the blood so fast
that its congests in the smaller arter-
les and veins of the head producing
violent, throbbing pain and distress,
called headache You become nervous,
respondent, sick, feverish and miser-
able, your meals sour and almost
nauseate you. Then you resort to
acetanilide, aspirin or the bromides
which temporarily relieve but do not
rid the blood of these irritating toxins.
A glass of hot water with teaspoon
full OF limestone phosphate in it, drank
before breakfast for awhile, will not
only wash these poisons from your sys-
tenn and cure you or headache but will
cleanse, purify and freshen the entire
alimentary canal.
Ask your pharmacist for a quarter
pound Of limestone phosphate. 1t is
inexpensive, harmless as sugar, and al
most tasteless, except for sourish
twinge which is not unpleasant.
If you aren't feeling your best, if
tongue is coated or you wake up with
bad taste, foul breath or have colds,
indigestion, biliousness, consultation
or sour, acid stomach, begin the phos-
phated hot water cure to rid your
system of toxins and poisons.
Results are quick and it is claimed
that those who continue to flush out
the stomach, liver and bowels every
morning never have any headache or
know a miserable moment.
