Forgot What He Needed.

From the Republican, Mt. Giliad
Ohio: The editor had an interesting
experience some time ago, when a
young gentleman came to this office
and asked for copy of the Morrow
County Republican. He scrutinized
it carefully when a copy was handed
him, and then saidl Now | know!"

inquired. my wife sent me after
a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, and I forgot the name. /
went to several stores and the clerks
named over everything in the line on
the shelf except Chamberlain
I'll try again, and I'll never go home
without Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy." The Republican would sug-
gest to the proprietors of stores, that
they post their clerks, and never let
them substitute. Customers lose
faith in stores where substituting is
permitted, to- say nothing OF the in
justice to makers OF good goods and
the disappointment Of customers.

State College Will Furnish Informal
ton Concerning Available Farm
Lands In the State.

Lands In the State.
To meet the inquiries of returning
soldiers and citizens in various parts
of the country, for information re-
garding farms for sale or rent in
Maryland, the Extension Service of
the State College through it's County
Agents will assemble and maintain
detailed data on all such farms for
the information and use CT interest
ed persons.
A blank form, which when prop
erly filled in will give all the import
ant details in which the prospective
buyer or renter would be interested,
has been prepared and a liberal sup
ply forwarded to all County Agents.
Any farmer or farm owner in
Maryland who wishes to SSH or rent
his farm should procure one of these
forms from his County Agent, fill it
in and return same to Agent who
will then send it to headquarters at
College Park.
1t should be clearly understood
that neither the State College nor
any of it's Agents will have anything
to do with the actual sale or rental
of any particular farm. The State
College through it's Agents simply
propose to act as a medium in bring
ing the two contracting parties to-
gether after which the transaction
rests entirely with them.
BY having available accurate,
trustworthy information on several
hundred farms the State College will
be in a position to give intelligent
answers to the hundreds of inquiries
that are received each year from
persons DESTROYS of buying or rent
ing land in Maryland. For example.
if man wants truck farm, it will
not be necessary for him to incur
the expense of conducting a personal
ourvey of several counties, for his
attention will be directed at once to
available farms in the trucking
sections of the State, and this same
idea will be carried out for fruit
farms, dairy farms, grain farms, etc.

HORSE SHORTAGE NEEDS
LEGISLATIVE ACTION

That the shortage of horses through
out the country Is serious and requires
the attention Of Congress, is the as
sertion recently made by O'Neil
Sewer, an authority on horses and
horse breeding.
Speaking of the need for army
horses of the right type, Mr.. Sewer
calls attention to the situation and
says that unless something ds done to
stimulate production We shall be woe
fully short IN horse power, though
prosperous otherwise and rich In agri-
cultural and mineral resources.
This deficiency in horses" he says,
demands the immediate and most Sc
rious consideration Of the national leg
islature.
THE accepted theory In Europe Of
the necessary ratio OF horse strength
to man strength in modern armies Is
2 to 5. And, for the edification Of I'M
informed writer's who hippantly as.
sure us that the utility of the horse,
as an essential element In warfare,
has passed and that the airplane and
the motor truck have taken over his
old-time work, It Is not amiss to say
that 400 to 425 horses were required
for the equipment Of every infantry
regiment of from 1900 to 1000 men
the United States sent over to France
"a properly outhtted American
Army" he continues, Should have a
bigger proportion OF horses to men
than is necessary for the equipment
of an army in Europe, for Germany,
France, Italy, Belgium and other Eu-
ropean countries are gridironed by
splendidly metaled railroads. Except
in the more densely Populated pants
of the East and North, notoriously
poor roads preclude the use In the
United States of the gasoline driven
vehicles to the extent that they were
employed by the armies of Europe.
"And it would be well to keep in
mind that the quartermaster's depart
ment of the United States army doubts
its ability to find right away enough
horses for an army of 100000 men!
The draughts made ON the farms in
the last four years by the Allies have
well-nigh combed the country clean
Of serviceable animals"
The production OF light harness horses
Of all breeds has languished every
where these past 20 years. Obtaining
the 5000 to 1900 thoroughbred stall
lions essential 10 the production Of
the kind of horses needed, he init
mates, is going to be very hard task
unless national action Is taken.
He calls attention to the splendid
work being done by the horse lovers
who are maintaining the breeding bu-
reaus Of the different States, but says
that even their efforts will have to be
aided.
Maryland has breeding bureau
which is Offering the free use Of thor
oughbred stations to Maryland farm
ers who will give the horses the right
care and attention. Through this bu-
reau a great deal of good work is
expected to be done.
The Maryland Breeding Bureau,
through this paper, will be glad to
answer all inquiries concerning horse
breeding and the care and manage
ment of stations and Of mares and
colts. Address all questions to the
editor of this paper who will forward
them. The answers will be printed in

INK MADE FROM ToADsTooLs
Manufacture Of Writing Fluid From
Common Variety Of Fungus ls Pro-
posed in France.


The utilization of common variety
of fungus for the manufacture of ink,
now both costly and scarce, has been
proposed in France. The ink-yielding
fungus which is often found growing
in clusters where decaying vegetable
matter exists in rich, damp soil is
sometimes called the ''inkstand" or the
s'ink bottle because of the fact that
when it decays black liquid is pro-
duced. Its cap is>elongated and bell
shaped, white at first and covered with
a shining powder, later turning to gray
with small brown scales on its top.
A French scientific journal says that
extensive experiments in the produc-
ton of indelible ink from this fungus
were once carried ON by French bot
anists. The fungi are simply placed
In a bottle or other container.
After standing for day or two they
change to black pulpy mass, which,
on being filtered through cloth, yields
a deep black or brownish ink, not un-
like India ink. The addition of small
quantity of gum arabic and little Of
the essence of cloves is said to i'm
prove it and preserve its fiuidity.
The ink consists Of liquid in which
are suspended the minute spores Of the
fungus. For this purpose it can be
readily identified by means Of micro.
scopic examination. AS it is also indel-
ible, 1t is peculiarly valuable for use
in writing of wills and other docu-
ments which are sometimes subject to
fraudulent Observation-Disclosures.

CONDITION OF TRADE.

NEW YORK. June 21.-The trade re-
views this week are more optimistic than
they have been in some time. Both
Dun's and Bradstreet's report a high
degree Of enthusiasm in trade and in
sist that the commercial revival has now
reached very substantial proportions,
In commenting on the situation of the
last week Dun's Review says, in part:
Commercial advices are such as to
leave no doubt as to their meaning.
and questionings Of the genuineness
OF the business revival steadily d.
minish as concrete evidences of prog
ress multiply. Much of the hesita-
tion engendered by economic and DO
lftical uncertainties has been dissf-
pated. and the prevailing condition is
no longer one Of waiting for a clearer
insight into the future, but rather Of
confident embarking upon important
commitments.
within recent weeks the change
OF sentiment has been sharply mani
tested, and the reversal Of purcha sing
policy which has resulted not alone
demonstrates the pressure of con-
sumptive requirements, but also re-
fleets q wider acceptance of the belief
that high prices are to continue, and
that tardy buyers may later face a
shortage OF merchandise. Scarcity of

CORN ADVANCES LAID TO
REDUCED 1919 ACREAGE

CHICAGO. June 21.-Big advances
in the corn market this week have
been largely due to estimates that
planting for 1919 showed a sensa-
|tional drop to the smallest total acre
ago in the last ten years. Compared
with a week ago prices this morning
were 81 to 8H higher for corn, oats
were up l y to 2A and provisions I'M
changed to 10 down.
Even before the estimates were out
that q giant reduction had been made
In tho acreage Of corn land, bulls in
the corn market had the advantage
owing to widespread belief that the
new crop was not going to turn out
right, and that there was danger Of
hausted. Besides the fact that hog
values had jumped to the topmost
point ever known operated as a
further element of strength. Reports
that a new German cabinet would
sign the peace treaty gave a tempo
rary additional lift to the corn mar
ket, but the assumption was after
ward sharply contested that actual
signing Of tho treaty would greatly
increase the demand for foodstuffs.
Oats were governed chiefly by the
strength of corn.
Provisions felt the bearish effects OF
houses here, but recovered moro or
less on peace talk.
Week end evening up OF trades led
to pronounced new upturns in corn
in the later trading.
Offerings of provisions were light
on the way up, and there was no i'm
portant setback in prices.
