SEM|-MON1HLY PAY DAY
BILL KILLED IN SENATE

On motion of Senator Thatcher
action on the semi-monthly payday
bill was indefinitely postponed in the
senate Wednesday morning by vote
OF to s. The bill came up on
special order and created a long dis
cussion. Senator Huskey of Washoe
county took the lead in favor of the
hill while Thatcher led the discussion
in favor of postponing it.
The bill was favored by the min
ers' union and employees of railroads
in all parts of the state.
Senator Harrington, who was in
favor of the measure stated: "SincA
the time OF Christ all legislation has
been in favor of the employer and
against the laborer.
Those voting to postpone action on
the bill were Bradshaw. Fernald,
Hesson. Kinney. Lemaire, Stewart,
Summerfield and Thatcher.
The defeat by indifnite postpone
ment of the semi-monthly payday
bill was the chief topic of converse
ton about the corridors of the capi-
tol and considerable disappointment
was expressed by the friends of the
measure that the senate had taken
that particular means of disposing of
oavp tho ponn Go5aftn
BY postponing the bill indefinitely
the senate precludes any further con-
sideration of the subject matter con-
tanned in 1t during the present ses-
sion.
Senator Harrington made an ef-
fort to have the killing" done on
the merits of the measure but the OPP
position proved too solid.
After the bill had been disposed of
Senator Thatcher. who led the oppo-
sition forces, said that the bill had to
be disposed of in that manner in or
DER to block an entirely new bill COM
ing from the assembly eliminating
some OF the features of the bill then
being considered but with the main
feature remaining.
We had to postpone the measure
indefinitely" said Senator Thatcher.
"in order to protect ourselves from
future developments.

112 Persons Killed.
Explosion Declared to Have
Been Accidental.

One hundred and twelve persons,
most of them women and girls, are
known to have lost their lives and 121
were injured by series of terrific ex-
plosions Tuesday afternoon, April 10,
in the shrapnel building of the Eddy
stone Ammunition Corporation, at
Eddystonc, one mile from Chester,
Pa. Many of the injured were NOR
tally hurt and it is feared the final
death list will reach $50, while others
probably will be manned for life.
How any of the 300 or more en-
ployes in the building, in which were
stored approximately 10000 shells,
escaped is almost beyond conception,
as there was scarcely a fragment of
the structure left intact. Fire added
to the horror and most of the bodies
were so badly charred that Identified.
ton was impossible.
In the absence of any official state
ment, many theories as to the cause
of the disaster, one of the worst ever
experienced in this section, were ad-
vanced. Rumors of plots and arrests
of persons both inside and outside of
the plant were numerous, but all
lacked confirmation.
Twenty Philadelphia detectives
were sent to Eddystone soon after the
explosion on a rumor that it was the
result of plot. After spending sew
eral hours investigating they report
ed that they had learned from officials
of the corporation who had made an
investigation that quantity of shrap-
mel had been placed near a radiator
and the heat might easily have ex-
ploded it. Their opinion is that the
explosion was purely accidental and
not the result of a plot

War Training For Boys.

The commission headed by Adit.-
Gen. Henry M. Warfeld, which Gov
ernor Harrington recently appointed
to study the question of military
training for school boys, decided Sat-
urday to recommend compulsory
training for all boys over IA years OF
age in the public schools, and will
likely offer the same rule for boys OF
that age in private schools.
A bill to carry out the recommen-
dation will be submitted to the special
session of the Legislature, and the
commission will begin drafting it
within few days. Information now
is being obtained as to the cost OF
putting the plan into effect, and the
number of boys to whom it would
apply.
The commission has nine members,
and was named by the Governor un-
der authority given him by the last
Legislature. President Peter J. Camp
bell, of the Senate, who has been a
leader in the movement for the train
ing of school boys, put through the
Legislature the authorizing measure L.
The commission was given instruc-
tions to 90 into the whole question OF
universal military training, but in
view of the probability that the Fed.
eral Government will handle that
problem, no recommendation will be
made to the Legislature.

PLANS TO TEST
COUNTY SOILS
STATE Experiment STATION IS
ARRANGING FOR SOIL FER
TiLiTY TESTS.
LOCAL COOPERATION NEEDED
County Denomination Agents Are
Promoting the Establishment
OF This Valuable
Soil Work.

College Park, April 5.-Following An
extended tour of the State, DR.. A. G.
Mccall in charge Of soil Investigations
at the Maryland Experiment Station
Is arranging through county demon
stration agents for number OF ex-
perimental fields throughout the State.
In this DR.. Mccall says:
1.-THE Maryland Experiment Station.
through its Department of Soils. is es.
tablishing a number of experimental
fields in different sections Of the State.
Work is already In progress at Ridg-
'ey in Caroline County and at Leon
ardtown in st. Mary's County, and it
Is expected that number Of add.
tional fields will be established during
the coming season.
For many years the Experiment Sta
ton has been making n study OF the
soils of the station farms in Prince
George County, and the object OF the
present movement is to extend this
work to include study Of the more
important soil areas Of the State. The
object Of these investigations is to
secure, for the farmers Of the State.
definite knowledge in regard to: (D
the plant-food requirements of the
crops to be produced; (2) the total
stock of plant food contained in the
soil; (3) the best methods of making
this stock Of plant food elements avail
able by practical farm methods; 90
the most practical methods Of supple
menting or increasing the plant food
supply in the soil; and finally (O the
systems of farming that will most
profitably and permanently maintain
the productive capacity Of the soil.
Each experiment field will contain
10 to Is acres Of land divided into
series which will correspond to the
different fields Of farm. Each series
will be further divided into smaller
areas, and these treated in such q
manner as to obtain very definite In
formation in regard to the needs OF
the particular soil. Definite rotations
will be followed and the crops grown
will be those common to the locality
in which the field is located.
The limited funds at the disposal Of
the Experiment Station makes 1t i'm
possible to establish experimental
fields in all of the counties or to work
on all of the different soils in any
county, but the work will be extended
as rapidly as the funds will permit.
Farmers or other business mon who
are interested in this soil improvement
work should consult their County A.
ricultural Agents regarding the sstab.
lishment of fields in their county"

WEAVING YOUNG CALVES.

College Park. April 6.-In q cam.
psign for the growing Of better and
more profitable dairy animals. G. ..
Wolcott. specialist in dairy work for
the Maryland Agricultural Extension
Service. urges the accommodation
made by the U. s. Bureau OF Animal
Industry regarding the feeding Of
young calves. He says:
"Weaning is critical time. but II
the calves are handled properly at
that time there will usually be NO
trouble. That is the time to pay par.
ticular attention to cleanliness, care,
and regularity. All pals must be
scrupulously Clean. and the pens kept
clean and plenty Of bedding supplied.
Young calves require fresh, clean.
and warm milk-not in large quaint.
ties but always little less than the
appetite demands. At nrst, four to
ave pounds of milk is sufficient for
one feed when given twice daily.
When fed in this way feeds should
be as nearly as possible II hours
apart. II it can be arranged. the
calves should be fed three times a
day for the first week and the Quan.
tity at a feed thus correspondingly
reduced.
Regularity must not be forgotten,
for It is essential in calf raising. Regu.
lar feeding and uniform quantity
prevent much trouble. Never try to
guess at the quantity of milk; weigh
1t! Don't estimate the temperature OF
the milk; use a thermometer! The
finger is not sensitive enough to gauge
the temperature of the milk when 1t
Is between 70 and 80 degrees F. The
first is too cold, the latter is right.
"The quantity of milk Is increased
gradually so that at two weeks Of age
the calves are getting daily, IA to Is
pounds apiece. AT that age, II the
calves are vigorous, skim milk may
be substituted for whole milk Make
the change gradually, substituting a
pound at a time. Usually the change
takes a week or 10 days, depending on
the condition OF the calves. At the
same age, offer them little clean,
dry grain, such as bran; bright, clean
hay also should be placed conven.
iently, if skim milk Is plentiful, feed
up to 20 pounds day to each calf
and continue for several months.
When it is scarce, calves may usually
be weaned at about six weeks and
put on dry feed.
"The care during the first few weeks
is very important If healthy calves
are to be raised. Cleanliness, care, and
regularity in feeding return good
profits in strong, vigorous calves"
