SHOULD PLANT
FOREST TREES
Residents of Maryland Advised
to Take Advantage of State
Forest Nursery.

! With the coming of the fall season
the State Board of Forestry, 532 North
Howard ST. Baltimore, is renewing its
offer to residents of Maryland to supply
them with standard forest and roadside
planting stock at cost. The Nursery
has been established and growing trees
for State improvement work since the
spring of 1914. The responce with
W hich it has met has shown that the
service which it offers is appreciated
generally by local landowners, and it
has enabled the extension of Nursery
facilities to meet growing need.
While in the past not as much of
forest and roadside planting has been
done in the fall as in the spring, there
seems no reason practically throughout
the State, why this should not show
steady increase in the future. In fact,
there are several distinct advantages
attached to fall planting which do not
obtain in the spring. Labor is usually
more plentiful and cheaper. and the
ground is very frequently easier to
work" There are many reasons for
utilizing the month of October and
early November for improvement work
through planting trees along the roads
and on the farms of Maryland.
Two distinct classes of trees are of
fered for sale this year: Forest trees,
and Roadside trees. Twelve hundred
forest trees are sufficient for planting
an acre of ground, one hundred and
fifty trees are sufficient for planting a
mile of highway. Prices on the former
are therefore by the thousand, on the
latter by the hundred, and in both cases
are rated at the cost of production.
Among varieties on hand, in forest
trees, are seedlings and transplants of
white pine, loblolly pine, Norway
spruce, red oak and black locust; in the
roadside trees there are offered larger
red oak transplant stock in white ash.
honey locust. American elm, black wal
nut and tulip poplar. Prices range
from the 81 per thousand charged for
the small white pines to S. per hundred
for transplants of black walnut four to
five feet in height. The rates on all of
them are very reasonable, as low as it
is possible to make them. Packing is
free and instructions for planting &C
company each order.

A CORRECTION WITH REF
ERENCE TO ANTHRAX
Misinformation Concerning Dis
ease In The Vicinity of Hutton.

In these columns there was published
last week an article dealing with the
reported outbreak of anthrax among
the cattle on the farms of Messrs.
Fred A. Thayer, D. N. Sanders and
Bert c. Scott near Hutton in which it
was stated that as result of the dis
ease number had died, twenty. five in
all, eight or ten of them belonging to
Mr.. Sanders.
Upon investigating this report and IN
conversation with the owners of the
farms upon which the disease was
stated to have occurred, it is learned
that none had suffered the loss of a
single head. but that several animals
belonging to son of Mr.. Sanders had
died as the result of being struck by
lightning or eating of poisoned weed.
The Republican regrets that the mat
ter was given publicity.

FOOD PRICES.

We are apt to look with pity upon the
Germans who, even in times of peace,
are under a paternal form of govern
ment The German authorities take
upon themselves the regulation of some
of the minutest details of life in the
empire, and every subject of the Kaiser
is expected to obey every law and regu-
lation of the government. We on this
side boast that we are a free people
and that we make laws to suit our
selves. The advantage, as far as living
conditions are concerned, rests alto
gether with the Germans. A proof of
this is found in the higher prices for
foodstutfs in the markets, provision
stores and restaurants, which have
been arbitrarily fixed, it would seem,
according to the caprice of merchants
and purveyors. We find that in New
York, for instance, most of the chain
restaurants and lunchrooms have fallen
in line with other restaurants that rails
ed their prices early this week on
practically all the dishes they serve,
The reason given is that the prices of
commodities have risen from 10 to 100
per cent. within the past year. We are
told that potatoes, which last year were
81. 70 a sack in New York, are now
quoted at ST. so, and it is predicted that
they will reach Sc before long. Other
increases pointed out as the cause of
the rise in restaurant prices are: Beans,
50 65 for 100 pounds, formerly, 81 80;
peas. S675, formerly SO. 85; flour, Sc 60,
formerly IS. 10; eggs, A cents formerly
sc cents. And we know, too, what diff
ticulties the New Workers are laboring
under with regard to milk prices.
Again this we know that this year has
seen bumper crops in everything raised
on the farm and in the garden Potatoes,
beans and peas have never been so
plentiful, while the wheat yield has
been most satisfactory. The trouble
is that there is no central authority to
control the greed of spectators. The
wonderiis not that prices are so high,
but that the prices ale not higher.
There is no authority to check this
persistent gouging of the public. A
little paternalism in our government
would not do US any harm. For one
thing. we should be out of the grasp of
INSCRIPTIONS money-grabbers.

A VISIT TO KEMPTON
A Newspaper Correspondent De-
scribes New Workings.

The Elk Garden correspondent of the
Piedmont Heard thus describes a visit
he recently made to the new town of
Kempton, Garrett county, where is To-
Gated the new workings OF the Davis
Coal and Coke Company, and in which
mine an explosion occurred last winter
when a number of men were killed:
Your correspondent was at Kempton
this week and CLEANED some points about
this up-to date mine. This mine is
seven miles from Thomas, and is in
Maryland, the mine and town. except
the store and Arcade building which
are in Preston county, W. Va. The
line due North from the Fairfax stone
in longitude 70 degrees and 80 minutes
West separates the store and other
building from the rest of the town.
Kempton is not passenger station
has been operating not much over two
years-and passengers are dropped off
at Beechwood fand then hike it down
the mountain path and up the railroad
one mile to Kempton. The store build
ing is of brick and the houses are sup
piled with water and arranged for gas.
The roofs are of asbestos and the town
presents a white appearance. The
shaft is four hundred and thirty feet
deep, and all the machinery is run by
electricity furnished by the power house
at Thomas. There are eight motors in
the mine and the output is between seven
and eight hundred tons day and the
coal is of excellent quality. The first
object OF interest as one steps from the
iron cage at the bottom of the shaft is
the motto in livid letters safety first"
The main entrances are well lighted bv
electricity, the headings clean and the
roof is of an excellent variety of rock
and feeling of safety makes visit to
this mine a pleasure. The coal is vein
of five or SIX feet nearly uniform
throughout the mine, splendid vein of
coal indeed. The ventilation is very
good and extra precautions are taken
for safety. People from this county
figure largely in charge of this mine.
VIM. Murphy, of Emoryville, is man
ager of the store, Miss Nina Knaben-
shue, of Keyser, is one of the clerks.
and Mr.. Lewis Duling, of Hartmons-
vile, is the butcher. J. Ray Hubbs, of
Elk Garden, is mine foreman having
received appointment few weeks ago.
Mr.. Harmon Trenton, of Elk District is
office clerk. We acknowledge the
courtesies from all the above and in
addition the mine superintendent Geo.
Raberts and assistant mine foreman
Matthew Stewart. A concrete walk
runs the length of the town. The
original Fairfax stone is no longer the
corner stone of state and counties. The
Potomac winds around two miles from
the Fairfax stone into the little valley
Of Kempton and on the small Potomac
a new stone has been erected on a line
due north from the other. This was
done by the government in 1910.

DR.. ELlOT'S CONFESSION

Mr.. Hughes, Mr.. Roosevelt, Mr.. Taft
and Mr. Root, four of the most skilled
analysts of public questions in this
country, have been spending months in
pounding home to the electorate the
underlying issue of this campaign.
Neither severaly nor together have
they succeeded in developing it so per
fectly as does DR.. Charles W. Eliot,
x-president of Harvard, in this single
sentence in.eulogy of the President
America has now turned its back on
| the familiar policy of Rome and Great
| Britain, of protecting or avenging their
wandering citizens by force of arms,
! and has set up a quite different policy
of her own.
The conclusion is that of a man who
has looked events in the face, discern
ed with-th same clearness of vision
with which MIR. Hughes, Mr.. Roosevelt,
Mr. Taft and MIR. Root have observed
| it, the. tact of this Governments repu-
diation ofsthe first historical principle
by which nations have always been actu-
ated in their dealings with each other
We commend DR.. Eliot summary of
| Mr. Wilson's policy to the careful con-
sideration of every Democrat and in
vite any Democrat to compare it with
this simple statement of fact which,
before theiyear 1913, no loyal Ameri-
can citizen would have thought to ques-
ton. 1t is by DR.. Eliot's colleague at
Harvard, John Fiske:
A government touches the lowest
of ignominy when it confesses to an
inability to protect the lives and
property of its citizens.
We need not doubt the sincerity of
DR.. Eliot's support of the principle of
n-protection of our nationals as an
advance over the principle which all
other nations accept. He is free to in
dorse it if he chooses. But certainly
there can be no question of the propriety
of insistence by those who cling to the
old ideas of a Governments obligations
to its nationals-the ideas to which we
have all been born and bred-that de-
parture from them does mean ignominy
and humiliation.
The departure is thus far the work OF
Woodrow Wilson. For four years he
has been free to follow his own course,
to pursue such tanciful, idealistic OF
pusillanimous policies as he would DR..
Eliot, in his eulogistic analysis of his
course, errs only in saying that it is
America that has turned its back or
the old traditions of what national
honor means. America is not bound
permanently by what one Administra.
ton does. Her means of repudiatlng
her chief executives acts are not in.
Simultaneous in their action. Thus far,
Woodrow Wilson's course has beer
neither rejected,nor indorsed by Ameri
ca.
But America cannot re-elect him as
her President save she be willing tt
take his policy as her own. Mr.. Wilson
has turned his back on the familiar
policy of protecting wandering Amer
cans. Is the country willing tC
scratch out that name and write Ameri
ca in stead? Or does it propose tc
cling to its old ideas of national obliga
ton and pride and bring its Government
back to them Baltimore News.
