Mrs. Mallsiel is one of the most

and one and one-half acres. more or
less.
This farm lies adjacent to the lands
of the United States Government, and
the subdivision owned by the Ferry
Farm Realty Coils near the north
end Of the Severn River bridge, and
the Annapolis and Baltimore Boule-
ward The improvements consist OF
a large and commodious dwelling. san
itary COW stable, barns and the usual
farm buildings. This farm is now set
to alfalfa. and it has proved a profit
able crop. The place has been known
for years as a modern dairy farm, and
considering its proximity to Annapo-
lis and the Naval Academy. dairying
should be very profitable business.
The principal value lies in its extern
sive waterfront; deep and navigable
creeks run up into the farm. Consid-
ering its availability for subdivision
and the healthy demand for water
front property in the locality where
this farm lies, it should be in every
way a most desirable proposition.
TERMS OF SALE:-A deposit of

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

HAAt VI " LAM
Today another leaf IN the calendar is

over the Old Year consider the accom-
plishments Of this period. note the fail
ures and shortcomings and then map
out a program Of endeavor for the en-
suing year
The New Year should bring new
hopes. new ambitions and new desires.
Not only is this true Of the individual
but Of any collection of individuals
such as comprises any town or city
The year 1915 was a period Of pro
Eress for Annapolis. In recent editions
The Capital reviewed the important
happenings Of this period, pointing out
tho events which had a significant
hearing upon The city's welfare and
advancement The steady march Of
progress has continued
The building operations of the city
cquaied those Of 1914. Considering
business depression throughout the
country, business Annapolis has en-
ioyed a large measure OF prosperity
Trade has been ND to a high mark ard
general conditions have been excellent
The agricultural community has also
nrospered. the wear being ara of bic
crops and high prices.
Annapolis has been blessed with
very little destruction by fine. and the
city has been most fortunate i'm es-
Gaping disasters and calam,ties. IN
deed,it seems that Providence has been
particularly kind toward Annapolis.
and there is certainly muck to be
thankful fo,.
The prospects for the New Year are
bright There are certain desirable
things that should be realized during
the coming year. and these will be ac-
complished If all will pull together.
Standing at the beginning of the New
Year. The Capital extends to its many
readers hearty greetings and best
wishes for 1916. We desire TO make
grateful acknowledgment of the very
liberal patronage whoch has been ac-
corded during the past year, Nineteen
sixteen brought the most successful
year in the history of the paper The
Capital has endeavored 20 measure up
to a high standard It's policy being to
give Annapolis a newspaper of which
she may we'll feel proud That our
efforts have not been in vain is shown
by growing subscription lists and by
increasing patronage.
The Capital has tried to work for the
best interests of the city and county
and II Will continue To exert its best
efforts in aiding the general welfare
of the community The liberal sup
port and confidence of the public we
greatly appreciate To merit such
will be the constant aim of The Cap
ital during the coming year.
Upon entereing the New Year we de-
sire to acknowledge the many kind
nesses and faithful service of The Cap
ital employees. correspondents and
other friends. whose assistance is in
