tinued on with careful selections OF stud
sires from time to time with eastern
flocks. The result is a Merino Delaine

Lies in Land and Water.

The wealth of Maryland lies almost
solely in its agricultural and water re-
sources, and neither has yet even be-
gun to be developed to anything like
its full capacity. Incidentally, it might
be mentioned that the prosperity of
our cities is dependent upon the de-
yelopment of the states great natural
resources, and l am glad to note the
spirit of cooperation along this line is
beginning to make itself more evident
every day.
Owing to the great amount of con-
tiguous territory in Maryland. and to
the fact that it draws a great deal of
its food supply from the waters of
Maryland. Washington should be just
as much interested in the projected
work as Baltimore. With each succeed
ing year the National Capital is being
bound more closely to Maryland and
Virginia, and economically is vital
