CORN TESTING
WEEK PROCLAIMED.
Governor Harrington Points Out
Importance Of Work AS
Preparation For Big


According to a proclamation issued
by Governor Harrington, this is Seed
Corn Testing Week.
The proclamation was issued be-
cause never before in the history of
this country was a bumper crop of
corn needed more than this year
The war has made more food neces-
sary A bumper crop of corn cannot
be obtained with poor and unfit seed
so the farmers told the Governor that
this unfit seed must be eliminated by
ting, and the seed-testing week re-
suited The farmers expect that as
result of the testing Of all seed corn
this week there viii be very little re-
planting in June.
In ais proclamation The Governor
says:
Whereas. increasing the acreage
and yield OF our grain crops is ear
nestly requested by the Government
OF the United States 90 meet the needs
OF our own people as well as our Al
lies; and
Whereas, the need of increasing
production is most vital during the
1918 cropping season; and
Whereas, the most productive
means of increasing the yield of any
crop rests in the proper selection of
seed and the testing of its germina-
ting qualities; and
Whereas, on account OF the pre-
vious severe winter weather and the
production Of a certain amount of
soft corn last season, it becomes the
patriotic duty of every farmer to
carefully select and test his seed
corn;
Now, therefore. l. Emerson c. Har-
rington, Governor of Maryland, do
hereby proclaim the week of March II
to 1G, 1918, as Seed Testing Week,
and earnestly urge all that corn to
be used for seed for testing during
this week"

There now seems to be strong
probability that Judge Harry S.
Class, of the District court, will
not be a candidate to succc q
himself, but instead will be can
lidate before the Democratic
primaries for governor. There
are comparatively few men who
gather about themselves great
or number of warm persona,
friends than Judge Harry Class.
His unassuming, yet dignified
manner, together with his genial
and amiable disposition is the
magnet that draws men to him,
even though they may be brought
before him for administration Ct
the law. He inspires their con-
fidence at once, and they in turn
inspire his sympathy, tempered
with judicial prudence and fair
mindedness. He can be severe
when occasion demands it. but
always gives his litigants a just
and impartial hearing. No one
has more confidence in his abil-
ity to administer the affairs Of
the state than the people of his
own judicial district, who know
him best, and none are more an
xious to see him throw his hat
into the ring than they.
