at Baltimore last spring was turned
over to the Extension Service at Coll

congratulated on their success in raising
a large amount of food products from
their gardens.
The prize money paid to the winners
in this county aggregated 1926. 90, the
largest prize being $500 and the small

Farmers for Service

About $50 delegates attended the
opening sessions of the Maryland Agrl-
cultural Society Monday afternoon at
the roof garden of the Hotel Emerson,
which ushered in Maryland Week fol
the society in conjunction with the SEES
sions of the Southern Commercial Con-
gress- Four excellent addresses were
made and the keynote of the meeting
seemed to be service after the war, y
Prof. T, B. Symons, secretary treas
urer of the organization, called the
meeting to order and introduced Sena
tor Orlando Harrison, of Worcester
county, speaker and who afterwarc.
presided. Senator Harrison was follow
ed by Col. Clarence Ousley, Assistant
Secretary of Agriculture, who came

attend; by Charles Peck, president ef

Senator Harrison, who operates the
Harrison Nurseries at Berlin, Md, ac-
vocated greater efficiency in farm work
the employment on a larger scale q
labor saving machinery to make up fol-
the growing scarcity of labor and OF

encourage them to settle here and till
the soil. He advocated more improve
roads and cheaper transportation rates
by rail end water.
Senator Harrison spoke also of tn
prosed bridge over the Chesapeake Bay
10 correct with the Eastern Shore.
While not belittling the project and ex-
pressing the hope that some such solu'
ton of the difficulty of maintaining th'
trade of the Shore for Baltimore might
come to pass, he thought it would tax
possibly 10 years to build such struc
ture and in meantime some provision
should be made which, though only TEN
porary in nature, might give relief to
the present generation.

The Dog Law Should Be Enforced

The farmer had visions last spring.
when the State Dog Law went into
effect, of future for his sheep that
would be both profitable and safe
His patriotic instincts led him to stock
heavily, to give more care to his flock
and introduce better blood that the
worlds supply of wool and mutton
might be enlarged. The Government
was calling for more wool and more
meat, and in the same spirit that he
added to his wheat acreage at the call,
his sheep program was at once enlarg
ed. The goal for the State, as fosterec
and announced by the the State Sheep
Growers Association, was 'One Mill
ion Sheep on Maryland Farms" This
is still the goal. Even though peace
is close at hand the worlds larder is
still short of NEST, and the needs fol
clothing are such that wool produced
at home will not lack for market, at
a good price, for years.
But it avails little, even though we
have one of the best dog laws in the
United States, if that law is not en-
| forced. Some counties have made the
times rather strenuous for dogs whose
owners do not think enough of them to
spend dollar or so for license tag.
Others have been content to collect
| what came in, but no effort has beer
made to force collections, or exercise
| that part of the law making it mis-
demeanor and punishable by fine or i'm
| prisonment, for the dog license Stacker
1t is realized that tag on a sheer
| killing dog will not reform him but it
| is also realized that proper enforC {
| ment of the dog law will pat worthless
dogs out the way. The owner Of th(
sheep killing dog, even though ne bnys
| a tag for the dog, should cultivate
| enough of sense of decency and fan
play to keep the culprit chained or shu
in at night. Only by enforcement of
the law and respect for the rights o
others will the sheep industry in the
State continue to thrive. We neec
more sheep from both standpoints o.
profit and a system of farming EN-
bracing more livestock.

Farms Need Boys

In view Of the valuable aid given by
the United States Boys Working Re-
serve during the past year in food pre-
duction, of the ever-increasing demand
upon the United States to feed the
world during reconstruction and adjust
ment, and of the estimated shortage of
farm labor for 1919, directors of the
Bows Working Reserve say it is evil
dent that new and sustained effort on
the part of the reserve as peacetime
organization will be necessary.
A drive for recruits for this impor-
tant organization will shortly be launch
ed in every State, and it is hoped both
by the Department of Labor, the Food
Admins tration and the National Board
of Farm Organizations that the boys
will respond readily. In 1918 quarter
of million boys answered the call Of
President Wilson for lsborers in the
fields, producing enough food to feed
one million people. In Maryland it was
estimated that over 10000 boys were
engaged agriculturally, though only a
small portion of these were enlisted
with the Reserve.
United States Food Administrator
Hel bert Hoover says that there must
be no slackening of effort on the part
of the reserve, for 1--WE are pledged tc
deliver to the allies in Europe next
year 10000 tons of foodstuffs, 6
tremendous output-50 per cent. great.
er than our total food contributions
this year.
A three fold educational program &c
train the boys to the greatest efficien.
cy for farm service is now being pre-
pared This plan includes, first, the
introduction of farm craft lessons deal.
lng with the elements Of farm practice
and it is hoped they can become part OF
the school curr iculum beginning Janu
ary 1st and continuing to the last OF
March.
The second part of the program pro
yides for central farm training camps
in connection with the state agricultu
raj colleges and schools, and the thirc
advises the organization Of units ir
high schools for military training.
The Boys Working Reserve will be
in uniform of Khaki next year. The
department has as its aim the enroll
znent of the 2,00G, 900 youths.

members Of a party Of six young

Caring for Our Wounded in France

our hospitals near the front must
always be kept clear. with this ex-
PLANTATION OF the rapidity with which
our cases are handled let me now
mention the care given the men es-
pecially in field hospital Is. Sust as
soon as a man enters he finds him
self IN the hands of his friends. He
is received kindly and Is always
greeted with a warm friendly word,
and with genial smile. A good warm
cup OF coffee is handed him, and no
one over here can Understand how
much 1t means. II an operation is
necessary he is gently placed upon
the table where ais clothing Is re-
moved. Then follows a good sponge
bath. which by the way, may be his
first in many weeks. Following this
process the anesthetic IS given. Then
with gentleness the finest surgeons
in the land apply their knowledge in
the necessary manner. The patient
is then wrapped IN warm blankets
and placed in a comfortable bed
which Is always warm and scrupu-
lously clean.
While remaining here everything
is done for the patient that VIII add
10 his comfort A genial nurse is on
duty DAY and night. always willing
and glad TO grant any request. Meals
are carried 10 the bedside three
times a day. and they are al
ways mighty good meals at that. En-
tertainment is carried, usually by
the I. NJ. c. a, right into the ward.
Many times in fact, il was my reg
ular habit TO put on a movie show
four times a week in these wards.
The men could be in bed and watch
the screen. Again we would have
musicals meetings and various
other auusements. Occasionally one
OF our bands would render q con-
cert. In fact there is something go
ing on all the time. and il is no un-
common thing to hear a man say, as
ne is about 10 leave for the front
again, We'll it's the best time l have
had since coming to France" Great
work is being done in our hospitals
and too much credit cannot be given

wounded. scarcely a few minutes

aid station where his wound is
bound up. He is rushed from here 10
what is known as the regimental aid
station where he receives more at

be bleeding il is again dressed very
carefully. From here the patient is
rushed in an ambulance TO our large
field hospitals which are usually a
few miles behind the front. Here, "a

and all information relative 70 him

OF a serious nature, forbidding
