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 liberal sup
ply forwarded to all County Agents
Any farmer or farm owner in
Maryland who wishes to sell 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 its 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 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 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 a truck farm, it will
not be necessary for him to incur
the expense of conducting personal
survey 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.

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

The utilization of common variety
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
sink bottle" because of the fact that
when it decays a black liquid is pro.
duced. It's cap iss 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 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 UNI
like India ink. The addition of a small
quantity of gum arabic and little of
the essence of cloves is said to i'm
prove it and preserve it's fluidity.
The ink consists of a 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, it is peculiarly valuable for use
in writing Of wills and other docu-
ments which are sometimes subject to
fraudulent Observation-Disclosures.

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.
1.-THE accepted theory in Europe Of
the necessary ratio Of horse strength
to man strength In modern armies LIS
2 to 5. And, for the edification Of un-
informed writer's who flippantly 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 AIS horses we're 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, notorlously
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
whore these past 20 years Obtaining
the 5000 to 1000 thoroughbred stall
lions essential 10 the production Of
the kind of horses needed, he init
mates, is going to be a 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 a 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
an early number Of this paper

success in this line, while by the book method
ltrequlres from four to six months our pupils
thoroughly master the subject in ten to
twenty days, they thoroughly understand the
subject and can handle any sets of books in
any business concern, bank and corporation
accounts, and with no trouble whatever This
is accomplished by a chart which invented in
1917. Iapplied for patent and secured it, as
there was nothing like it in the United States.
We taught Is children 10 and II years old in
"a days OF two hours each or 48 hours They
were tested before a mass meeting at the Court
House, before the High School in Birmingham
and before the State Board Of Education in
Montgomery, and they stood the test perfectly.
AS proof OF the excellence of our method we
have graduated over 600 in the last three years
IN bookkeeping, and we have not heard of a
failure IN any case; many were in the govern
ment service in many camps in the United
States and also in France during the war;"
while taking lunch at restaurant down.
town few days since, two intelligent gentle
men came in and sat down at nv table, said
Prof Ellis. 1--WE engaged in conversation.
when one of them askedme about my business
rephed that was engaged in commercial
school, the Spencer-Ellis Business College.
They smiled and remarked that they recog-
nlzed me by my picture in The Age-Herald.
They began to discuss bookkeeping, as they
were auditors for the federal government at
Washington. They said they had read a good
deal about my work and were anxious to
understand my, method of teaching this SUBJ
ject. They were graduates of Eastman col
!ege. lreplled that taught no new system of
bookkeeping, but my method of teaching the
subject is where the secret lies, for visualize
the subject by chart, which is the best way.
as it is a known fact that IS per cent of our
knowledge reaches the brain through the eye."
With which delightful little chat extend
to all best Christmas Wishes,
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1919-12-07

But can the pupil really learn the wonder
ful Ellis Chart Method of Bookkeeping within
from 10 to 20 days?" l asked curiously yester-
day, as Prof. S. A. Ellis, the remarkable man
who is president of the Spencer-Ellis Business
College and the man who for over 40 wears has
been teacher, a scholar and a power in the
educational circles of the south, was talking to
me about his school. 4S
It'll answer you by practical methods" said
Prof. Ellis his merry eyes twinkling in salts
faction and his genial laugh corroborating the
enthusiastic statement which followed, "by
telling you that of the hundreds and hundreds
OF boys and girls and men and women who
have taken the Ellis Chart Method of Book
keeping at the Spencer-Elli Business College
and have followed bookkeeping as profess
sion, earning their own livelihood in this way,
we have yet to find a failure"
This was growing interesting; questions
were arising in my mind which | wanted ans
wered, but before could find the opportunity
to ask them, Prof Ellis said:
THE war taught us perhaps more than any
other modern agency that short methods are
the best. When the call to arms came our bows
"CAC AOe ocHI CLuOuSu w est FOlnC, Annapolis
or other military and naval academies for four
years training but they were sent into camps
where short, intensive training obtained and
within short period these same boys were
ready to go to war, well equipped and SPLEEN
didly trained for service"
again, you take the woman, whether she
be butterfly of fashion or vet a plodder."
Prof. Ellis continued, "who finds herself sud-
denly thrown upon her own resources to make
her own, living. She has no money to spend
on an expensive tuition in business college,
