To Form Cow Testing Associations

To Form Cow TeSJlng ASSOcAaCAohS'
G. F. Marsh, County Agent spent
several days last week in company
with Prof. G.. e. Walcolt of Dairy
extension department of the Agri-
cultural College, calling on the
farmers in the interest of the estab-
lishment of COW testing associations.
There was much interest shown
as practically every farmer visited
was anxious to join. They expect
to form one association at Rising Sun
and the other in the vicinity OF
Elkton.
AS only twenty six farmers can
belong to one association there is
room in Cecil County for at least
half a dozen associations. Where
these associations are in operation
the farmers are satisfied that 1t is
worth far more than the small fee
charged to know what each COW
gives and the percent of butter fat
as well as the cost of feed, so that
they soon find out their Improbable
COWS.
Mr.. Marsh would be glad to have
the names of the farmers desirous OF
joining one of the COW testing asso-

Two Years To Be Settled.
At meeting of the Board of Pub
lie Works Friday, action was taken
to anticipate the payment of all
claims of institutions supported
wholly or in part by the state.
1t had been previously arranged to
settle these claims on October /, but
because of the need of funds it was
determined to mail checks on
August 8.
This action by the board will be
welcome news to charitable, educa-
tional, medical correctional and
other institutions which have been
seriously crippled for period ex-
tending over two years by the failure
of the state to pay sums appropriated
to them by the General Assembly
In most cases the managers of the
several institutions thus affected
have applied to banks for loans.
Interest payments have proved to be
serious drain upon the resources
of the institutions.
States deficiencies have amounted
to about $1.75O,000. The funds to
pay off these accumlations have been
provided by what is known as the
Treasury Relief Loan, which was
fioated last week. The bonds will
be handed over to the purchasing
syndicate this week. The receipts
from these bondsswill be Immediately
deposited in banks and will be
drawn upon by the State Comptrol-
Ter.
The Board of Public Works has
taken 100000 of the new bonds for
