AT MONTFAUCON
Full Credit Given Baltimore Regi-

OF War

When the 31Sth Infantry Of the 10Th
Division, to which many Of the An.
napolis boys were attached took
Montfaucon ii captured among other
trophies of war a German periscopic
telescope. which was used by the
Crown Prince during his attack on
Verdun. This telescope has been pre-
sented to the United States Military
Academy, and now word comes that
the Secretary of War has directed that
this shall be suitably perpetuated in
the halls of the country's great mill
tary school at West Point.
Gen. Joseph f. Kuhn, who com
manded the roth Division. which
trained at Camp Meade. is now in Cal
ifornia AMI has been notified by the
adjut;tnt general Of the army of the

unusual trophy. The official notice

The first prize on white corn was
awarded to Mr. w. J. Aitcheson. OF
Prince George county. and first prize
on yellow corn went to Mr.. Orlando
Ridout, Jr.. this county.
The live stock. as has been previous
ly said. was quite small. and DR..
Devoe Meade of the Maryland State
College. assisted by the county agent
of Anne Arundel county, judged.
There were several exhibits of chick
ems. Barred rocks, Cochins. Brahamas
and Rhode ISLAND Reds were exhibit,
ed. None OF them were at all first
class. Several pens Of turkeys. geese
and ducks were fair. This material
was hastily gotten together and not
in show shape at ALL However. prizes
were awarded and Anne Arundel men
carried them off.
A very attractive but small exhibit
was that of Belgian hares. One pen
of a doe and buck in fine shape and
another of doe and six small ones.
This was quite attractive, but as they
were not on the entry list only rib
bons were awarded.
There were some very fine flowers
shown, the exhibit of Guide was espe-
cially fine Guide grows a large
amount of the flowers sold in the ma
tional capital.
The exhibit of sewing, cooking and
baking was very small What there
was of it was fair. although no fancy
packs were shown. The Community
exhibits at Davidsonville and Glen
Burnie were far superior to that
shown at the State fair 1t showed
haste in the same degree as that OF
all other parts of the fair. Some fair
samples of homemade furniture and
bric-brac were also on exhibition.
The fakirs who generally follow
State fairs were ''stung' for fair at

There was the usual line of tattoed
lady, fat lady, snake eaters, ring
throwers, ball throwers, free trapeze
act which was quite good, hot dog
and hot coffee vendors.
Although the State Fair is mis-
nomer and will continue to be so until
the farmers of the State take hold of
it and make it worth while says
County Agriculture Agent Norris.
Here is the equipment-all that is
needed is interest-to make really

LITTLE BOY BLUE.

This famous poem OF childhood
u,s MS apthos and beauty, was Eu
Fields contribution to the per
,pa literature of America:
H. little toy dog all covered with
dust
PM sturdy and stanch he stands
~. r,,le toy soldier is red with rust
Ana his musket moulds in his
hands.
rir,a was when the little toy dog was
new,
And the soldier was passing fair,
And MAT was the time when our little
BOY Blue
Kissed them and put them there.
f~yow. don't you go till / come" he
said,
and don't you make any noise"
c. toddling off to his trundel bed
He dreamt Of the pretty toys,
And as he was dreaming, an angel
song
8wabed our Little Boy Blue
Oh. The years are many and the
years are long.
But the little toy friends are true.
Az. faithful to Little Boy Blue, they
stand,
Awaiting the touch of little hand,
The smile OF a little face,
And they wonder as waiting these
long years through
In the dust Of that little chair,
what has become Of our Little Boy
Blue
Since he kissed them and put them
there.

FAIR" IS MISSIONER,
SAYS COUNTY AGENT
Laurel Race Track Exhibit
Known For Years AS Mary
land State Fair"
COUNTY FARMER WINS

County Agent of Agriculture George
w. Norris. who attended the Maryland
State Fair, held at the Laurel race
track. where he xas one of the judges
Of exhibits. says: The entire farm
exhibit at the fair could be placed in
room 100x50 and plenty of room
left for parking several machines.
Many of the communities of Maryland
| have put on larger and better exhibits
of farm products than is displayed at
Laurel under the name OF Maryland
State Fair" This things exhibited are
| first class in every particular, the
prizes offered age large, but the ad-
vertising is redlced to minimum.
OF course people from Maryland know
and understand the excuse of the fair,
but what do people from outside the
State think of it?"
There was goou Dlg crowd at the
races and the races were fine at that.
but in the course of the afternoon
not more than 100 people visited the
exhibition. There is one pen of
calves exhibited and one pen of sheep.
This is the entire live stock exhibit
aside from those exhibited by the Gov
eminent farm at Beltsville They
have on exhibition some very fine
hogs, sheep and goats
The Government also has the only
meat exhibit This is in the form of
smoked hams and bacons. They are
first class but not UP for competition.
They are purely educational and are
worth a trip to the fair to see, as
are also the sheep and hogs.
The farm produce is we'll displayed
but is not representative of any .one
county. There are some very fine
plates of apples and the blue ribbons
were noted on; many exhibits from
Anne Arundel county. One farmer in
Anne Arundel carrie off, it is estimat
ed, about $3.50 in prizes. Vegetables
of ali varieties are shown, some good
and some bad. "A class of juniors and
seniors from the Agricultural College,
under the direction of Prof. P. W
Zimmerman, judged the vegetables
and fruits.
The grain exhibit was very poor.
There were only five or six entries of
corn and not many more entries OF
small grains. Mr.. J. B. Wentz, of the
Maryland State College. judged this
material The corn was poorly dis
played and showed some very poor
growing. The ears. except in two or
three samples, were not uniform nor
true to type One prize offered by
the State fair, lis for an exhibit for
the largest numbers of varieties grown
on one farm This must be dis
outraged says County Agent of Agri-
culture G. w. Norris, because we can
never hope to grow corn true to type
if we are going to litter up our farms
with more than one variety of corn.
Select the variety you like best
and stick to it. 1t is the only way to
win legitimate prizes and at the same
time produce corn that will bring in
the biggest and best returns. Corn
is one of the plants that is very easily
crossed, showing in the first genera
ton. Imagine a field of yellow and
red corn growing side by side. The
result resembles the arena at a Mex
lean bull fight. Some of the corn was
still green and. this initiated against
the exhibitors"
