In adopting this means of further

Favors National Budget System.


Governor Harrington believes that
a great war debt and taxes that con-
tinue to soar out of all proportion to
the population are sufficient insplra-
ton to the citizens of the United
States to demand that Congress
adopt national 'budgetary system.
In a statement prepared for The
National Budget Committee, which
is advocating reform in the financial
administration of the nation, the
Governor states that ''the inaugura-
ton of budget system will go far
toward rectifying number Of evils
in our financial system"
The State chief executives firm
belief in the salutary effects budget
plan will have in government affairs
is based upon Maryland's four years
experience with a carefully thought
out system of estimates. Maryland
was one of the first States to take
action in revising it's appropriation
methods.
Its budget, which has served as a
model for the budgets adopted in
many other States, was incorporated
in the State government in 1915.
Previous to that the financial affairs
of the State reached such condition
that the treasury was embarrassed
by million-dollar deficit. AS Sc
curity against REPETITION of a deficit
a budget system was strongly advo-
Gated by State leaders and was
finally adopted.
Speaking of Maryland's experience
and at the same time urging the
adoption by Congress of national
budgetary system, Governor Har-
rington said: "a million-dollar de-
felt in 1915 aroused the people of
Maryland to the need for an effective
budget plan. A bill was passed
through the Legislature proposing
an amendment to the Constitution
providing for budget system. The
amendment was adopted by the peo-
pie and now the budget is part of
the Constitution of our State.
"The Governor revises estimates
furnished by the State Department
and officers of the State and submits
them to the General Assembly. The
General Assembly cannot increase
the amounts, but it can strike them
out or decrease them. The budget
system in Maryland is working
finely"

WHEAT CROP DAMAGED.
Report OF State Extension Service
On The Crop.

Report OF State Extension Service
On The Crop.
Reports received from all counties
in the state indicate that the actual
yield of wheat will fall far short OF
what was expected earlier In the
year when the crop gave every
promise of q bumper harvest. The
Crop Reporter Of July Sth, forecasts
the probable yield at 12,00O,0GO
bushels, which is slightly in excess
of last years figures of a little more
than 100000 and 100000
bushels less than an earlier estimate
this year. At first thought 1t would
seem that the former figure SHOWS q
gain rather than loss, but when we
realize that there were nearly $4,000
additional acres seeded last fail, the
loss. occasioned this year by unfavor-
able weather conditions and the raw
ages of diseases is at once apparent.
Contrary to usual observations the
early maturing varieties, such as
Fultz, were damaged much more
than the late varieties. This condi-
ton is due to the fact that the hot
spell put in it's appearance several
weeks ahead of the normal schedule
and caught the early varieties just
at the time they were maturing. The
intense heat together with the lack
of rain caused the grain to ripen
very rapidly with the result that the
kernels were only partially develop
ed when growth stopped. In num-
Der of cases the heads were so poor
ly filled that the grain would not
have been worth harvesting if it
were not for the value of the straw.
Rust and scab were very prevalent
in many sections and caused con-
siderable loss in both early and late
varieties. Both loose and sinking
smut caused some loss but the grow
ing tendency on the part Of the
farmers to cooperate with the work.
ers of the Extension Service in treat
ing the seed wheat to eliminate these
maladies is already accomplishing
splendid results in checking the
losses from these sources.
The sections suffering the heaviest
loss include the counties on the
Eastern Shore and Southern Mary
land which are not naturally wheat
districts. In these regions the yield
will probably be much below normal
and of very poor quality On the
other hand careful surveys show
that there will be much excellent
wheat in the nothern tier of coun-
ties, especiallyiin Washington, Har.
ford, Baltimore, Cecil, Howard and
Carroll where the yield on several
farms will exceed forty bushels per
acre. This is fortunate condition
for the farmers of the state since it
will allow the growers from the af-
fected areas an opportunity to pro-
cure good seed wheat within the
state.
