Waldorf Selected as O Site for
Creamery

Farmers and business men of the
southern section of Prince Georges 8
County and of st. Mary's -and Charles
counties at a meeting in the Court
house at La Plata. Saturday afternoon,
selected Waldorf as the site for the
proposed Southern Maryland Cooper
ative Creamery. :.
Several meetings have been held dur
ing the past month to decide upon the
location of the creamery. La
Plata. Waldorf and Brandywine.
each claiming it presented the most
desirable site. A. recent NEE ting it
was decided to solicit stock for a cream
cry to be established at one of the
three places. Only those who had
subscribed to stock and had paid half
the purchase price of their subscrip-
ton were permitted to vote at the
meeting Saturday.
The residents of Waldorf and neigh
borhood were thoroughly organized and
worked energeticaily to obtain the
creamery for that town. Their work
resulted in giving them 427 of the 528
votes cast. In addition to this large
majority of the stock the town will al
80 donate the site on which the cream
cry will be erected.
This will be the first creamery in
southern Maryland. At the present
time there are but few farmers in this
section of the State engaged in the
dairy business. A creamery located
at the place selected can be readily
patronized by the three counties re-
presented at the meeting, it is pointe d
out.
1t is the intention to incorporate the
company with capital stock of $780,
900. The directors for the first year
will be H. Badenhoop and R. H. Perry,
of :Prince Georges county;
James P. Ryon, w. G. Bishop and j..
E. Weatherald, of Charles county, and
G. c. Peverley and L. B. Johnson, of
St. Mary's county.
It is the plan to issue not more than
SIS, 900 stock at first. This is the esti-
mated amount required TO establish the
present creamery. Should the dairy
business grow to an extent to justify
enlargement 1t is the purpose to issue
more stock and establish creameries in
other sections of Southern Maryland.
The stock voted at Saturdays meet
ing represented about IS. 500. The dir
ectors propose to make drive at
once for additinnal stock needed and
to begin work on the building as
soon as possible.

A Call to the Democratic Voters
of Prince Georges County

For number OF years past 1t has Deen
generally recognized, and as matter
of fact it is tru., that the state of the
Democratic party in Prince Georges
Count has been far from satisfactory to
those who really have the interest OF
the party at heart. As striking evI-
dence of this statement attention is call
ed to the following facts;
In 1918 all the Democratic candi-
dates were elected.
In 1915 all but three of the Demo
cratic candidates were elected.
In 1877 this condition was reversed
and all but two Of the Republican
candida'es were elected,
In 1919 again all but two of the Re-
pub can candidates were elected.
The Democratic vote in congressional
and state elections in the county in
recent years has been even more dis
couraging. Why this progressive de-
terioration of the Democratic party?
What is the cause?
Is it not true that-it is attributable lie
in large measure to the fact that for
anumbsr of years inf fences outside of
the county. interested solely in their
own financial advancement, have
practically dictated the party nomin ees,
certainly SO far as the legislative can
didates are concerned.
Has the rank and file Of our party
had full voics in the nomination of
candidates!
Is it not manifest that under changed
conditions the success of the Demo
cratic party IN this county lies in the
ods in the conduct of our county gov
eminent.
Let US suggest as pertinent questions
for discussion as affecting our county
government the following:
Is there not room for improvement
in our public road system?
Is not the effect and influence or race
track gambling UPON the people and
government of our county vicious?
Is not the admin istration of our tax
laws obnoxious and hurtful to the peo-
pie?
Is 1t right that several thousand of
our tax payers should be subj ected to
the Inconvenience and expense of le-
gal proceedings against them tO>collect
personal taxes without sufficient no.
tice before suit.
The good of. the Democratic party re-
quires full, fair and frank discussion
Of these and other questions, and to
that end the undersigned do now call
upon the Democratic men and women
of our county to meet in convention
at Upper Marlboro on Tuesday, August
9th, at o'clock p. m.
A special invitation is extended to
tue women voters Of the county, and
others interested in good government to
be present.

DESERVES GREAT CREDIT.

To Colonel NJ H. Straughan, the people of Arkansas owe debt of grat- itude for his tireless efforts in the oil game, resulting in the wonderful achiev ment at Fl Dorado and a general ac- tivity in all fields elsewhere in this state.
 MT. Straughan is West Virginian, but for 20 years he has watched and helped in the development of Arkansas oil lands, and 1t was largely through him that the "oil spirit" was kept alive and finally brought through to grand triumph in South Arkansas.
 At the present time, MT. Straughan's greatest interest is centered around Sutton, and we believe with him, that Nevada county will soon become the beneficiary of a gusher similar to the Busey we'll at Fl Dorado.
