Gas Plant For State.

The United States Government is
about to establish a great plant in
Maryland for the manufacture OF
poisonous gas to be used by the Amer
lean Army in France.
Details of this project are not yet
a matter of official announcement,
but it is known that the site has been
tentatively located and that the Ord
nance Bureau is at work on the plans
for the new Government enterprise.
An option was taken on large a
rea of land, it is said, at Stump Point,
Cecil County. More than 1000
acres of ground is involved, and as
soon as the deal is closed the Govern
ment will be prepared to proceed
with the work of construction.
Stump Point was selected, it is
stated, because of its proximity to the
Hartford proving ground. This point
is at the mouth of the Susquehanna
and within hailing distance of Perry
vile, where the railroad connection
can be made. The proving ground
is only few miles away and may be
reached either by rail or by water.

Must Have Tobacco.

Washington, D. C.-The use of to-
bacco by cur troops in the trenches
plays no small part in the conserva-
ton Of food, say Marine Corps Off
GERS here, who estimate that from 25 to
80 per cent of the food is saved daily
in this manner.
While authorities admit the detri-
mental influence of narcotics, they
assert that tobacco relieves the ner.
vous tension of soldiers who are under
continual shell fire.
EARLY in the war;" declared a
Marine officer, the French discover
ed that the men who smoke eat con-
siderably less food, and only recently
the British Food Controller issued
the statement: The British troops in
the trenches must have tobacco OF
much more food.

The fact that there is coal shortage
has been set forth in the public press,
but it is not believed that the rural Sec
tions of the State realize the full signti-
canoe of the situation. That the rural
communities have not suffered so severe
ly from the coal shortage this winter is
due to their having gotten supplies be-
fore the shortage occurred. There are,
however, no surplus to be drawn upon
next summer as was the case last year,
and the situation becomes more serious
Certainly every farmer who has been in
the habit of using coal entirely, or in
part, should draw upon his woodlot for
his fuel supply. Those living in villages
or towns within hauling distance of wood
supplies should lay in reserve stock of
wood, as they may not be able to get coal

or only limited supply.
There still remains month or six
weeks Of the winter period which is the
best time to cut wood. This is the sea-
son when the men and teams on the farm
are least busy and when the weather is
most favorable for woods operations
TO realize the fullest benefit, however,
the farmer should cut not only enough
for his own needs but surplus which
he will be able to sell at good profit
next winter. The cost of cutting wood,
preparing it for the market, and the re-
tail price are alvariable factors, depend
ing upon local conditions and demand.
The Fuel Administration will be glad
to assist any one in finding profitable
market for any surplus wood that they
have cut ready for delivery.

Eiahteen Billions to Run U. S.

Washington, Feb. 15-The great
est financial drive in this country's
history is under way today to obtain
over 5000, 100000 for Government
expenses this year.
According to the estimates OF the
Treasury Department, the United
States will spend more than s53 ,OOO,-
600 every day during 1918, the great
est portion to be dishursed to rnn
the war.
1t is expected that the third Llber-
ty Loan will net the Government far
above 81, ,OOO,O 100000. Internal rev.
enue returns for 1918 will show So
100000, 900, as compared with the
$500, 1893, $40 collected during 1917,
according to the Treasury Depart
ment estimates. The total internal
revenue returns for 1918 will equal
One-third OF the total revenue Vi Iiio
entire world two years ago.
Excess profits will bring in 81, l,2Oo,-
100000. The next largest amount,
$3.50, 100000, will come from the
personal income tax. The pennies
that are paid with nickels and dimes
for admission to movies and from
dues paid to club treasures will net
s5O,OOO,OOO. The picturesque Vir-
gin Islands, lately acquired, will fur
nish its share of the revenue, $40, coo.
Out of this vast sum to be raised
by internal revenue only s73O,OOO,-
GOO represents the revenue OF COM
modities taxed under the old law.
The remainder will be the tangible
results of the revenue act of October,
1917.
