Record Crowd Celebrates Farmers Day

| A record crowd attended the annual
exercises at the Maryland State College
OF Agriculture, May 30th.
The laying of the corner stone of the
new Agricultural Building was the CEN
ter of attraction.
In connection with the campaign for
increased production the Maryland
Agricultural Extension Service had
arranged for demonstration in plow-
ing, narrowing and seeding by a dozen
well known makes of farm tractors
which began d. s a. n. and continued
throughout the morning.
Demonstrations in home canning and
drying for farm women were in pro-
gress at the same time at the Expert
ment Station. Guides were stationed
1T all parts of the College grounds so
;hat visitors could inspect the work of
every department and secure informa-
ton on subjects in which they were
particularly interested. In connection
with the work of the various depart
ments of the College and Experiment
Station number of demonstrations
we're in continuous progress through
out the day. Farmers had an oppor-
tunity to see the treatment of hogs for
cholera. the proper handling of bees,
the use of power machinery in spraying
and busting, the mixing of spray mixz
lures, the testing of soils for lime, and
many other operations that are neces-
sary to improved production.
Picnic lunch was served to visitors
from noon until two o'clock at which
time free moving pictures were on dis
play in the College auditorium. At
two o'clock the cornerstone of the new
Agricultural Building was laid, the
ceremony being conducted by the Grand
Lodge of Masons of Maryland. Follow
ing the ceremony, the graduation exer-
cises took place on the camps when "A
young men received their diplomas,
many Of whom returned from active
work on the farms of the State for the
nent member of the Federal Farm
Loan Board, was the speaker of the
day, speaking on the Opportunities for
national service that are presented to
the farmers of the State.
An inter collegiate track meet and
exhibition drill were additional drawing |
cards during the day. Every effort |
was made by the College authorities to
have in active progress every form of |
farm operation that could be of inter |
est to the farmer and his family. The |
laying of the cornerstone of the new
Building was a red-letter
event in the history of the College and |
a great occasion for the dedication by
Maryland farmers of their thought and
energies to the great problem of food
production that is before them.

scraplng q Bat.

Baseball players are as superstftious
as Zulus. In no way is this more lucid
ly illustrated than In t. care which
some Of them lavish upon an ordinary
baseball bat Manufacturers, says the
Popular Science Monthly, oil and shell
lac their bats to make them sleek and
fresh, and the superstitious baseball
player proceeds to use glass, bone,
sandpaper and what not to remove the
finish. Why? Oh, "just because" to
give a woman's reason. He may have
a notion that the bat viii last longer
without 1t. But the truth is that the
shellac really acts as a preservative Of
the wood.
Some baseball players imagine that It
is impossible to make strong hit with
a new bat, because the bat Is SO sleek
that the balls glance or 1t. Others be-
heve that scraping q bat fills up the
crevices and cracks and thus lengthens
the life Of the bat.

The Man In the Navy.

It is probably true that most of rs
think Of the navy as an adventure and
not as a career, says James B. Con-
molly in Golfers Weekly. Yet the navy
will take young man, feed and clothe
him, give him a good all around train
ing and while he Is yet in middle age
retire him with at least $50 a month
for the rest Of his life. No matter how
low his rating has been, that $50
month Is certain after his thirty years
Of service, while II he has shown mod
crate intelligence and ambition he can
count on close to 800 a month, and
this without his having ever been a
commissioned officer. The years after
his retirement he may spend as he
pleases-go into business, get another
Job and make another wage on top Of
his pension. He can go to Jail II he
prefers. Whatever he does, always
there Is that sheet anchor Of a pension

Filipino Women,

r0mous
Women In the Philippines, from Eli
ptno to Ifugao and from Kalinga to
Moro, have a lot to say about ths way
things are run.
My first realization Of the different
status Of Philippine womanhood came
on the Pacific steamer on which last
returned to the United States. A
young Filipino wanted to wrestle with
some of the Japanese on board. But
his wife was with him, and she feared
she would lose husband In the melee.
She vetoed his desire with considerable
ease and perfect effectiveness. If she
had been Chinese, japanese or Indian
Of the same class her husband would
have wrestled as long as he wanted to,
or could, and the woman In the case
would have kept her mouth shut. In
Turkey a man doesn't mention his
daughters. But In the Philippines In
several cases I have observed that the
woman holds the purse and the gavel-
Christian Herald.
