Planning for Summer

You're going to need electricity on
your farm this summer. Thousands of
farmers used it for the first time last
summer and are loud in their delara-
| ton that they wouldn't go through an
| other summer without electricity to
help out
In the first place, electric lights, be-
side being bright and radiant, are cool
| lights. They will not heat up room
after night as will an open flame light.
Then electric lights do away with the
necessity for cleaning smelly coal oil
lamps and lanterns-and how they do
smell on hot summer nights.
Then you'll want electricity this
summer to run the electric fans that
will cool the hot kitchen, that will
breeze around the dining table and
that will drive the hot air out of the
bedrooms and make the nights comfort
able
All these things you are going to
want this summer, and, If you want
them hard enough you can have them.
The small, individual electric plant has
been developed especially to the farm
homes, no difference where they are
located And farmers are adopting
them, too, in great numbers. Nova
days if you travel the county roads in
Maine or Ohio, in Alabama, Iowa or
Oregon, you will find farm homes
lighted after dark with electric lights,
and served in the daytime with cleo
triciry from their own electric plants
If you want to enjoy electric service
this summer yourself, it will pay you
to cast around little and get some
information as to just what electricity
would mean to you. If you can get
your buildings wired. the foundation
built for electric plant and the plant
installed before the hot busy summer
days come you will be well on the way
to the most comfortable and enjoyable
summer you ever pent.

CHRISTIAN CHARITY

At this season the thought
that should be uppermostin our
minds is Christian charity.
Not only the inclination that
prompts the givinc of gifts to
those we love, not simply the
helping CT those in need, but a
kindlines of thought and feeling
for all mankind, a disposition to
forgive injuries, to appreciate
worth even though clothed in
humble garb when it has tri-
umphed over the difficulties and
misfortunes of youth and chal-
lenged respect and love by the
beautiful development of Chris
tian graces and polite accom-
plishments.
How much happier the world
would be if we could realize that
living in accordance with
the precepts taught by the
blessed Saviour is the duty
of Christian people! How much
less mental suffering there
would be, if bitter prejudice
could be obliterated and SIAN
derous tongues silenced.
There is room for a revival of
the true Christmas spirit and
for the spread of love and peace.
"Thou, Who reignest. bright in
glory,
On Gods throne or high,
Oh, that we may share thy triumph,
Grant US Charity!'

State Race Tracks Made Over
Million

The four one-mile race tracks in
Maryland made more than 100000
at the fall meets this year. These
meets aggregated 50 days of racing
and the profits represent what the rae
ing associations have left after paying
their expenses and the State tax of
$4,000 day.
The amounts made by the different
tracks, according to the statement sub
mitted to the State Racing Commits
sion by its auditor, are as follows:
Pimlico, 1927, 920.
Laurel, S512,307,
Harve de Grace, $1S4.114.
Bowie, S215, 509
The commission, it was stated, ex-
poets to collect from the tracks in ad-
dition to the $4,000 day already paid
about 5000, 900 as the tax on profits re-
quired by law.
The tracks want an allowance by the
commission for all the improvements
and repairs they have made in the last
six months. This the commission will
not grant, but it will deduct a fixed
sum for improvements and deprecia-
ton. The tracks are expected to fight
the allowance The amount the tracks
would have as profits, if they were
permitted to charge all the expendi-
lures of the last six months to the
earnings of the same period, would be
as follows:
PimIico, 500, 22I
Laurel, $308,604
Havre de Grace, $115, 657
Bowie, $83, 518
The commission took q slice out of
the Bowie allowance for salaries by
directing that the annual salary
of James F. O'Hara general
manager, be cut from 500. 900 to s10,-
900, and that the salary of G. D. Bry-
an, as assistant manager, be cut from
SIS, 200 to $1,000. The commission also
directed that the allowance for the
pay of members of the directors of the
Bowie tracks be cut from $1,000 a
year to 81, 200, which is what Pimilco
expends for directors.
The amount of money bet on the four
tracks in the 50 days Of fall racing was
about $3s, 900, 900.
The commission turned back to the
breeding bureau Committee without;an-
prevail the plan for turning over to the
State College of Agriculture the $780,
900 breeding fund with a letter .ex-
planning that the commission desires
to maintain control of the fund.
Racing days of the fall meet were
divided as follows; Pimlico. II; Lau-
rel 26; Havre de Grace, II, and Bowie

able Government follies commit
ted. On the other hand, some
improvements, as in the railroad
law, have been made. These
things, rather than the range of
mere prices, constitute the fac

A LOOK BEYOND PRICES

The fact that crops as valued
In the Department of Agricul-
lures final estimates attained a
value five billions lower this year
than that for 1919 calls upon us
for a view that reaches beyond
the cash values. If one accept
the mo ney measure of value as
absolute or final, the figures in
dictate an economic reverse.
Such a view is needlessly I'M
favorable and obviously out of
harmony with known facts.
The years harvest, all in all,
despite the decrease in wheat,
amounted to more bushels
than the harvest of the preced-
ing. It will feed and clothe as
many or more people. Figured
at the same prices, it would have
at least an equal value. It's sole
shortcoming lies in the fact that
it sells for less.
So do the country's manufac-
tured products as a whole sell
now for less than formerly. A
years production figured at the
price of today might well show
another five billions of loss as
against the prices of a year or
less age. Yet the country has
still all the goods that it cares
to command. No lack of farm
products, no lack of factory pro-
ducts, a fall of ten billions in
dollar-marks, which no one can
eat or wear; such is the change
In the nations wealth. Moth
ing in this situation can really
impoverish the country.
Capital invested in business
and in farming does indeed suf-
fer loss. Capital measured by the
dollar, it now faces the extinc-
ton of more or less numerous
dollar-marks representing de-
preciated national output, and
of a much greater sum in invest
ments, based upon their profit
earning power. But capital full
fills the function of underwrit-
Ing the dollars ups and downs.
That forms one of the chief
purposes of its existence. When
dollar values went up over a
hundred per cent, some people
felt indignant that private Dor
rowers of capital, such as farm
ers and business men, should
reap the profit. Such people may
now we'll change their opinion,
and be content that borrowers,
perhaps in some extreme cases,
lenders, too, and not the pub
lie, face the loss.
Wholesale prices move faster
than retail even as they did on
the upturn. Goods of some sort
decline less promptly than 9TH
ers. But with a little time for re-
assortment, prices, wages, sup
ply and demand will of them
selves find the line of least re-
sistance to somewhere snear the
level of the era before the war.
Afew industries have been WHIP
cd out, a few sources of mater
ials exhausted, few burdens of
taxation added, gold brought to
this country in excess of its
healthy share of the worlds sup
ply, some men crippled, a few
markets destroyed, some avoid
