KEEP THE CHICKENS AT HOME

Keep your chickens at home in
closed in wire screen lots is an ad-
monition to all people in town who
keep poultry. Garden making has
begun and it is very annoying to have
ones neighbor's chickens scratching
up the beds and seeds. Ill feeling
and estrangement of neighbors is of
ten the result of this chicken forag-
ing, and besides it is contrary to city
ordinance. Keep your chickens at
home, don't let them annoy your
neighbors and prevent i'll feeling. In
so doing you are not only respecting
the law, but you are observing in that
regard the golden rule.

Oyster Shell Screenings

The State Lime Plant is offering for
sale a good wheat and clover fertilizer
at 81. so per ton,:. in bulk, f. o. b. cars,
Popes Creek. This material is screen
ed from the oyster shells prior to their
being ground into lime, and analyses
about 80 per cent carbonate of lime.
1t consists of decomposed oyster shells
and rich alluvial soil over which sweet
clover has been growing abundant for
a number of years. 1t is rich in or
ganic nitrogen, resembles dark brown
or black earth, and can be applied with
the shovel, the manure spreader or
the lime spreader, by placing a screen
over the hopper to prevent the larger
particles of shell from passing through
and clogging the machine.
Several tests of this material were
made during the past season the re-
suits of which will be published in time
to be useful next spring. Suffice to
say at present they were very satisfac-
ory, and in some cases the results>were
astonishing. Where used as a top
dressing upon wheat and clover, both,
especially the clover, showed marked
Improvement; the clover growing well
on unlimed land where it had failed to
grow previously. A potato test on
MANFRED land gave an increase of 40
per cent for the screenings, as against
20 per cent for 16 per cent acid phos-
phate of the same money value.
The screenings and phosphate used
together produced an increase of 70
per cent. The land where manure
alone was used produced 80 bushels
per acre. The phosphate and screen
ings cost S1752 per acre and gave an
increase of 65 bushels.
1t would seem from observations thus
far made that the same percentages
would hold good in the case of wheat
and grass. The phosphate and screen
ing combination seems to work well.
Indications are that the application of
three tons of shell screenings and 500
pounds of acid phosphate on land that
alone under ordinary conditions, would
produce Is bushels of wheat per acre,
should cause an increase of ten bushels
of wheat and one half ton of hay worth
S32, besides a permanent Improvement
of the soil.

To establish the Budget Sys-

To establish the Budget Sys-
tenn.
To establish the State Law
Department and abolish private
counsel to Public Boards.
To further perfect, develop
and extend the Public School
System.
To reduce legislative expenses.
In the light of the great pub
lie necessity we commend His
ExcelIency, Governor Harring-
ton, for converting the General
Assembly in extra session to
consider and pass upon the
necessary war measures.
While we deplore the failure
to pass the bill to enable soldiers
and sailors absent on military
duty to vote, and pledge our
party to the enactment of such a
bill. nevertheless, the work of
the extra session in passing the
Council of Defence Act, the ap
preparation Of the million dollars
for war and emergency purposes,
the Militia Bill, the bills protect
ing the registration Of voters
when absent on military duty,
the conservation bills, demon
strates the patriotic and intelli-
gent interest Of the majority of
that body and establishes a re-
cord second to more.
We believe that the people
should be spared, in so far as is
reasonable, the burden of tax
alton for additional internal i'm
provements so long as the pres
ent wartime conditions exist;
and that every resource and en-
ergy of the State and our people
should be devoted to increasing
and preserving the food supply
caring forE those disabled finan-
cially or physically as a result of
the war, and to winning the
war.
The Budget Systam proposed
by the General Assembly of 1916
and adopted by the people in the
form of a Constitutional Amend
ment, initiates a radical, and, if
properly handled, a decidedly
beneficial reform in the States
financial affairs. In order that
this system may be entirely sue
cessful and merit complete conf
dence of the people, and that
they may acquire the fullest
knowledge of its operation, it is
the sense of this convention that
the Governor give public hear
ings to applicants for appropri-
atoms and employ such expert
or other assistance as he may
deem necessary in the prepare
ton of the first budget.
We approve of the efforts of
the City Of Baltimore to include
within it's limits contiguous ter
ritory in Baltimore and Anne
Arundel counties, including such
of it's suburbs as a part thereof,
provided that such extension
shall not be made except with
the consent of a majority of the
qualified voters of the territory
proposed to be annexed, as re-
quired by the Constitution of the
State, and by the principles of
self-government and home rule,
always dear to free people.

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM

Following is the Democratic
platform adopted at the State
Convention in Baltimore on
Thursday, September 20.
We, the representatives Of the
Democratic party of Maryland,
in convention assembled, re-
affirm, our adherence to those
principles of free government
established in this land, always
extended and upheld by the
Democratic party and now rec
ognized by the wisest patriots of
all nations as the only sure hope
and foundation for the lasting
peace Of the world.
In this hour of worldwide
strife and in the face of this un-
precedented war forcing upon
US, a peaceful nation, all the
burdens and responsibilities of a
beIigerent nation, we pledge our
help, our faith and hope to that
greatest leader of modern
thought and action, Woodrow
Wilson.
We renew our faith in the
present national administration,
and pledge our utmost support
to the President in his efforts
that know no party, no race, no
creed, to crown our Army with
success, to protect our people
from oppression and to insure
peace to the earth.
We pledge our party to the
most sound and rigid economy in
the administration of the affairs
of the State, and to the passage
of such legislation as may be
necessary to prevent the hoard
ing of food, and to punish any
oppressive and unWarranted in
crease in the price of the ordi-
nary commodities of life; and to
cooperate with the Federal Gov
ernmenment and its agents in
every practical and legal way to
increase the products of the
State and to conserve the ma
tons economic power upon win
ming the war.
We endorse and commend the
present Democratic administra-
ton of the State affairs, and the
ability and earnestness of the
Governor and the Board of Pub
lie Works in so successfully
meeting and disposing of the
great problems and responsible
ties imposed upon the State by
the war.
We commend with especial
pride the splendid public record
of Hon. Hugh A. McMullen, as
Comptroller of Maryland. He
has administered the duties of
his office with rare diligence.
fidelity and business ability, I'M
der the guidance always of high
and unselish ideals, and with
sole regard to the best interestg
of the State and its people. His
loyal public service, his capable
and economical management of
the State finances, should right
fully entitle him to the support
of the people, regardless of par
ty.
We call attention of the people
with pride to the magnificent
achievements in real construc-
tive legislation of the General
Assembly Of 1916 enacting laws
to:
Reorganize the State College
of Agriculture.
To extend the good roads Sys-
tenn.
To revise the Motor Vehicle |
Laws.
To establish the Conservation
Commission.
To establish the Board of Pris-
on Control.
To amend the Primary Elec-
ton Laws by abolishing the en-
Velope system.
