Chiropractic-What It Is.

Chiropractic (Kiro-praktilk) is the
Science of locating the cause Of dis
ease and the Art OF removing 1t by
adjusting the spine, which relieves
pressure on the nerves and allows
natures life-spark, or nerve energy. to
flow freely to and from the brain.
The cause OF disease, as the Chiro-
practor finds 1t, Is a subluXation of one
or more Of the vertebrae which dee
which the spinal nerves pass, and
impinge or press them, hence shut off
a portion of the nerve supply to the
organs or parts, and the result will be
disease, deranged functional activity.
4 normal nerve supply to any organ
or part of the human body generates
normal function and maintains health.
In adjusting the vertebrae to re-
lease the pressure, the Chiropractor
uses and needs nothing but his hands.
The whole object of his work Is COM
pleted when this pressure is removed.
Nature does the curing. In some cases
daily adjustments are necessary for a
time, In other cases, however, three
adjustments n week will bring splen.
did results. The Chiropractor should
be the Judge as to the frequency Of
the adjustments.

Twenty Millions Off.

On March 9Th, the City of Balti-
more struck Twenty Millions OFF its
assessment rolls, when the ordinance
exempting all personal property
used in manufacturing was formally
approved. BY thus encouraging in
dustrial activities, the City will in
crease it's land values and SO abund-
antly make up the apparent loss to
it's taxable basis.
The City of Pittsburg has long
exempted all merchandise and per-
sonal property, and for several years
past has been successfully reducing
the taxation on buildings. The more
profitable commercial and building
activities are made, the higher land
values become. Land in Pittsburg
is now about double the price OF
similar land in Baltimore.
Scientific taxation encourages the
development of land and discour-
ages holding land out of use. The
old method retards development and
encourages vacant lot holding.
All Maryland towns were recently
granted the power to relieve build
ings and personal property from
local taxation by increasing the rate
upon land. A number of town
boards have already taken advant-
age of this. Two municipalities
Capitol Heights and Perryville-
have completely exempted buildings
and personal property and raise all
their revenue from land or site
values. Hyattsville, Garrett Park
and Tacoma Park are levying lower
taxes upon buildings than upon
sites. The suburb of Roland Park
which has been called model resi-
dence community has always levied
for its maintenance charges upon
land alone.

A Dry Nation.

For. fifty years the prohibition
movement has been under way.
Beaten back by many storm,
threatened by many an angry wave,
endangered by reefs and shoals, with
both wind and tide against her, she
has weathered all the storms, made
more steam amidst the gale, and,
reaching the port at last, is anchored
in the Federal Government on the
rock base of the Constitution.
Eight years ago there were only
six states dry, now thirty-one. NO
rtate was very dry, for the old pro-
hibition laws leaked like sieve.
The very term bone-dry is less than
three years old. The word had not
been coined to describe this type of
legislation, because the thing de-
scribed was nowhere in existence.
Oregon and Arizona put the new
deal, bone-dry prohibition, into
their constitutions November
1915. In January of 1917 sixteen
state legislatures followed suit, and
in February Congress passed the
bone-dry law stopping the interstate
shipment Of intoxicants into dry ter
ritory. Then the weak and unsatis-
factory amendment to our Constitu-
ton, which Hobson proposed, was
put under the table; and with per-
feet unanimity the temperance re-
formers adopted a bone-dry Constr
tutional amendment. A two-thirds
vote Of both Houses of Congress
passed the resolution and it went
out to the states. There it met the
overwhelming acceptance of the peo-
pies sentiment and in breath-tak-
ing speed it ran it's course through
forty-five states, and will have them
all. When the corrupt political ma
chimes that have held New Jersey,
Rhode Island and Connecticut under
the stranglehold of brewers domi-
nation are broken, we shall win.
We are going to have dry United
States and dry world. clarence

LoCUsTs WILL ABOUND in
MARYLAND.
Eighteen Counties In State Will Be
Affected.


Eighteen of the counties of Mary
land are scheduled for visitation
of the Cicada Septendecim or IL
year locust, as the pest is commonly
called and within the next few
weeks the pupa or primative form OF
the insect will make its appearance
from the bowels of the earth where
it has been sleeping for the past II
years.
The locusts will appear in all of
tho 23 counties of the State, but
their numbers will be large in only
IS. The counties to be most severe
ly affected will be Allegany, Anne
Arundel, Baltimore, Calvert, Caro-
line, Carroll, Cecil, Frederick, Gar
rett, Hartford, Howard, Kent, Mont
gomery, Prince Georges. Queen
Annes, Talbot, Washington and
Wicomico. The counties which will
be affected only slightly will he
Charles, st. Mary's, Dorchester,
somerset and Worcester. The first
two are in the southern part of the
State on the Western Shore and the
last three named are in similar
position on the Eastern Shore.
The greater part of Maryland will
be visited by the locusts this year.
Seventeen years ago they came in
hordes of billions and since that
time-1902 was the year they
have been under the ground sucking
at the roots of trees, shrubbery and
other forms of plant life. Accord
ing to Professor E. A. Andrews oil
the Johns Hopkins University, the
insects do more damage when they
are invisible than they do above
ground. He recommends Swat
the Locust" campaign, and urges
that this be done at night when the
pupa leaves the ground and starts
climbing up the side of some tree,
post or building.
The locust does not seem tc
thrive in the mountainous regions.
They are dense east and west of the
mountain ranges which run from
New York down through Pennsyl-
vania, West Virginia, the western
part of Virginia and the Carolinas.
The 13-year locusts are more pre-.
valent in the South than in the
North. The Department of Agricul-
ture declares that there is no &C.
casion for alarm because of the APP
proach of the plague and that much
Roadway can be made against the
pest by the free use of insecticides
when the pupa are coming out OF
the ground.

Liberty Loans and Agriculture.


In previous wars in which Amer
lea has figured the brunt OF the
fighting and the burden of the loss
were shouldered by the rural
patriots of the young republic. The
young blood of the soil was tho fist
to respond to the colors, and the
soil suffered depredations from the
armies of attack and defense.
But not foot of American ground
was laid waste in the world war.
Not an American child or woman
was outraged; not an American
home was despoiled. The draft cal
led alike from crowded metropolis
and the free air of the farm. TX
emptions were effected alike for the
farmers sons and the boys in town;
for the armies of America and the
armies Of the allies had to be fed,
and this food had to come from
American farms. The boys who re-
sponded-all honor to them-fought
with the same determination and
conquered with the same grace,
whether they came from field or
street. And now America is one OF
the victors.
From April 81 to May 10 the peo-
pie of the United States have an OPP
portunity to show their gratitude to
the boys by subscribing to the Vic
tory Liberty Loan. The loan is
necessary because America must pay
it's bills, just as America always has
done. Our soldiers fought for peace.
Peace came. It is what America
wanted. It is what America obtain
ed. 1t is what America must pay
for.
In the first and second Liberty
Loans the American farmer shared
very lightly in lending to pay the
war bills. He didn't want war.
None of US did, for that matter.
The excitement of the war was CEN
tered in the cities, and the cities re-
sponded wonderfully in the first calls
for war finance. The wage Garner
was within easy reach. He was
solicited. He responded quickly
In many cases he not only lent
every thing he had, but mortgaged
his pay check. In the third Loan
the farmer began to take part III
lending for war. In the fourth the
record shows that he responded well
in the lending that brought victory
But in the fifth, or Victory Liberty
Loan the nation looks to the farm
for a much greater share in this
last public call for lending to pa,
the price of peace.
In 1914 the American farmers
received $4,000, 100000 for theil
products, wheat, corn, cotton ant
live stock. In 1918 they received
$23, 100000 an increase Of 23C
per cent. The cost of producing this
increased, of course. Some author
tiles say it increased only SO pei
cent. But even If it was 100 pei
cent this leaves a net increase of l3C
per cent for the farmer on his
products over 1914. High prices
for farm products have made keen
er demand for farm land.
Peace must be paid for. The
government must have cash to pa!
the bills, to re-educate the wounded
