To Complete Kinks Bridge Road

The Oxford News reports that the
Commissioners of Chester County,
Pa, have recognized the progress
siveness in road mattrs prevailing in
West Nottingham township and will
give them $4,000 with which to finish
the Stag road from Kinks Bridge to
Herr's Mill. About 81 miles of the
total 4 1-10 miles are completed, but
the available funds raised by the re-
cent bond issue are exhausted and 1t
is necessary to get outside help. An
appeal was made to the State High
way Department, but under the ex-
isting laws, it is not possible to con-
tribute to roads not under State con-
troll. 1t was then that the county
came to the Feseus and the read Will
be completed by means Of their con-
tribution.

Reception TO Company e.

It is in the thought Of many Of
our citizens to have our communit3
show it's appreciation of the boys in
Company E, by giving them recep-
tion and banquet shortly after their
return. Everybody interested II
the plan is invited to public meet
ing in the Court House, Elkton, on
Saturday evening, October 14th, at
8 O'Clock, to decide on just what is
best to do and to arrange for the
doing of it. The boys will likely
reach Maryland about the middle OF
next week, but just when they will
be mustered out and return to their
own Armory cannot be foretold.
When they do come home, our people
will doubtless give them a hearty
welcome in whatever way seems best
The idea of the public reception and
banquet is to have it a few days after
their return But the plans can all
be discussed and determined upon
at Saturday nights meeting, which
you are invited to attend.

Canning Season Closes With Small
Pack.


The canning season in Cecil county
as we'll as throughout the State, has
closed with small pack, but high
er range of prices for all canned
goods.
Maryland and our neighboring
State, Delaware. put up the bulk OF
tomatoes used in this country and
reports from these sections indicate
not more than a two-thirds pack.
Last season (1915) the tomato pack
IN Maryland was 3,684,e00 eases; in
Delaware, I'll, 900 cases. This year,
it is claimed, on the most conserva-
tive estimates, that In both States
the pack will fall far below these
figures.
The shortage of the pack can easily
be accounted for when one recalls
the almost incessent rains of the
spring and early summer and the sew
eral severe storms accompanied by
terrific high winds, which whipped
the blossoms off the vines, thereby
destroying the bearing qualities OF
the plant. Last year tomatoes sold
as low as so cents per dozen for
No. cans; today the same goods are
freely taken at 80 to 95 cents.

CAMPAIGN OPENED.
Democrats Start Ball Rolling With
Meeting AT Elkton.

With the election day drawing near
the first move to inject some
life into an unusually quiet cam
paign in Cecil was made by the Demo-
Gratis, ON Saturday evening, when a
well attended public meeting was
held in Elkton.
The meeting was called to order
by former Sheriff Harvey H. Mackey,
chairman of the State Central Com
mittee, who introduced Frank B..
Evans, of the local bar, as presiding
officer. Congressman Lewis, who is
favorite in Cecil, was enthusiast
cally received by large audience as
he rose to speak.
Other speakers were Congressman
Jesse D. Price, candidate for re-
election; the Hon. Charles T. Cald-
Yell, of New York, and Senator
Thomas p Gore, of Oklahoma. The
Democrats of Cecil county are united
and predict large majority for both
President Wilson, Congressman Price
and Congressman Lewis.

The winter caterpillar is brown from

All these signs, separately, are IN

DULUTH'S WOMEN

The workers who labored for
a "dry" Duluth and the voters
who voted it have been heartily
congratulated on the result Of
the license election, and that's
all right.
But don't forget that back of
the fight to abolish the licensed
saloon in Duluth stood the wom-
en- of the community, and that
the irresistible spirit that forced
Duluth "dry" under circum-
stances that make it probably
the most remarkable victory for
prohibition in the present pro-
hibition wave was in a very
large measure of their creation.
Only men voted, but behind
many a man who voted "dry'
were the prayers of a mother,
a wife or sweetheart. Does
anybody suppose Duluth would
have voted "dry" Monday if ev-
cry woman in Duluth had been
Indifferent to the result?
Women bear the heaviest bur-
dens of the woes and miseries
that flow out of the evils Of in
temperance. Many of them have
bitter cause for their enmity to
liquor. Men voted Duluth "dry,"
but back of them were the wom-
en- of Duluth. The victory is
theirs, and they should get their
share of the congratulations

dense fog. And from half-past sevel
III the morning until half-past six at
night the Baltic secured the surface
Of the ocean on its errand Of mer-
cy. All through the long, weary
hours Binns sat at his instrument
sending out messages and directions
to the ship coming to the aid of the
Republic.
And then, in the evening, after a
day of zig-Zagging two hundred miles
On the ocean, the Baltic sent the well
come word to the Republic that they
were close together. The look-outs on
the ships could see nothing, but the
wireless operators knew. And so the
passengers of the Republic were saw
ed by means of wireless telegraphy.
Only a few years ago such a disas
ter as that Of the Republic could not
have had so satisfactory an ending.
Doubtless some of the passengers
would have been rescued by the ship
boats, but exposure to the January
weather must have levied a heavy toll
even on those. Instead, every mal,
woman and child was safely brought
to land.
This splendid rescue brought the use
Of wireless for saving life well before
the world. Shipowners at once began
to see the necessity Of having their
vessels fitted with it. Marconi had
fully proved his right to the honor of
saving life.
The following year after the saving
of the Republic. wireless telegraphy
was put to still another use. In the
Iautumn of that year an American in
lventor named Wellman set out in his
Idirgible balloon. periodically called
1.-THE America, to cross the Atlantic. In
Theory the idea was good; in practice
lit went wrong. Presently Wellmau
land his band of devoted helpers found
themselves drifting aimlessly about
lover the wide Atlantic, with apparent
lily little hope Of rescue. But the wire
less operator with the balloon succeed
ed in calling aid to the stricken air
iship.

LUMBER OF REAL VALUE.
Alaskan Forest Lands Contain Much
More Than Borders Suggest.

To counteract the impression given
by those who want the national for
ests turned over to private expioita-
ton that the Alaskan forests have lit
tie timber of commercial value, Henry
NJ. Graves, chief United States fores-
ter, tells of his observations last sum
mer, as quoted in the indianapolis
News There are two national forests
in Alaska, both on the southern coast.
Speaking of the Prince William sound
region, L portion of the Chugach for
est Mr.. Graves says that its external
appearance is deceptive. From the
shore line all that can be seen are
scrubby hemlocks and dead snags, but
on advancing into the interior spruce
trees from two to three feet in diane
ter are numerous. In many sections
there are stands that will average from
10000 to 10000 feet al acre and stands
| yielding as high as $4,000 feet are oc-
casionally found. In the Tongass re
| gion, which lies near the northwest
ern states, the timber is said to be
! even heavier. One corner of the Chu-
zach forest contains coal claims and
| from time to time bills have been in
! troduccd in congress affecting the for
est.
Although the national forests are
Icouiined to the southern coast Mr.
| Graves says there Is much valuable
timber in the interior which is in need
of government protection. The princi
pal species are white spruce, with
birch and cottonwood. The trees are
smaller than on the coast and the yielt
Tighter. These forests while not i'm
Iportant in the general lumber market
are of great Importance locally. Nil
lions of acres have been burned by
forest fires and the writer believes tina
1.-THE government should take steps Il
Ipreveut further damage.
The current idea that Alaska /
largely n treeless, inhospitabie coun
try. says Mr. Graves, is altogethe
without foundation. Originally Owe
40 per cent of the country was covere
with trees, very nearly as great n pei
eentage as originally existed in tn
United States. The southeast coast o
Alaska has a very equabie climate an
its timber is much like that of the Pa
cifc states. The principal trees in thi
section are the Sitka spruce, wester
hemlock. western red cedar and Alask
yellow cypress. The spruce is tn
most valuable and often grows six fee
Through and 200 feet in height. TIL
national forests in Alaska like othe
national forests, are under the suoe
vision of the forest service. MOI
THAN 100000 feet of timber IS sol
from the Alaskan national forest ever
Iyear.
