ANNOUNCEMENT
New Milk Service

THE CAMBRIDGE CREAMERY,
seeing the need of the people of
Cambridge in obtaining supply OF
wholesome and healthy milk, have
decided to start a milk wagon on
Wednesday, July 10, to serve PURE
PASTEURIZED MILK.
THIS MILK will be obtained most
ly from our Hurlock Creamery, re-
ceived in the morning, pasteurized
as taken in, cooled and brought to
Cambridge and bottled, and placed in
our COLD STORAGE ROOM, ready
for delivery early next morning.
PASTEURIZED MILK is the only
kind of milk that is allowed to be
sold in Baltimore, and most other
large cities, therefore it must be
more healthy and wholesome when
treated this way, or the authorities
would not demand it.
The farmers around Hurlock have
the reputation of producing as fine
milk as can be had, and Mr.. B. F.
Merrick, our manager of Hurlock
Creamery, has the reputation of TAX
ing excellent care of his milk and
cream, and also makes fine butter.
Our prices will be 13c. per quart,
or 8 tickets for one dollar.

until il is hard to see how he man

lie anyone to perform part OF MS
work. Under the Constitution OF
the State, framed when public at
fairs were allowed to drift and, to a
large extent, take care of themselves,
the Executive was granted very eX-
tensive powers. Under these provl-
sions of the Constitution the sue
ceeding legislatures have imposed all
sorts of duties, and his EXcellency
must attend to all. AS a result, the
office of Governor, instead of being
an ornamental sinecure, has become
one of the hardest sorts of job. re-
During not only great skill and
| ability. but the greatest and most
untiring industry. Governor Har-
rington is on the job all the time,
even his critics admit that as a fact.
He is untiring in his industry, and,
! literally. works almost day and
night. 1t should be d matter OF sat
isfaction to the people of the State
that his administration has been
free from scandal, that his appoln-
tees have been creditable and gen
orally efficient. and that as whole
the State has been carefully gov
erned during his term up to the
present time.
In the meantime Mayor Preston is
not giving out any sign of moment
as to his intentions for 1ext year.
The belief is becoming more and
more general every day, however,
that he will be re-nominated, and
that his Republican opponent VIII

lican leaders arc reported to have
decided upon Mr.. Timanus as their
candidate, and when the time comes
all opposition to him will probably
be withdrawn
