Announcement
Important

We are pleased to announce that Mr..
w. n. Powell, one Of the most reliable
insurance men in this community, has
been successful in procuring the APP
pOintment of district representative of
one of the Oldest and most desirable
farmers mutual insurance associatio
for the hauling of crop insurance.
His duties will not only be to procure
the applications for insurance but to
assist with the adjustment OF losses as
well, which will be greatly to the adj
vantage Of the policyholders.
One of the strong features of this
association is to give special attention
to the wants of it's members and it
makes practice of following the same
course in settling losses as is followed
by old line or capital stock companies,
in requiring the local agents to assist
with the adjusting. This method as
sures the Associations losers of fair
deal.
The rate of premium of this associa-
ton each year has been so reasonable
and the treatment of its policy holders
so fair that it seems to be the logical
association to place your crop insurance
with. See Mr.. Powell at once and get
your valuable crop protected in this
exceptionally good association before
the amount Of insurance permitted in
your locality has been secured.

BiIIProtects Migratory Fish
Introduced By Representative
Of Maryland.

Representative Linthicum introduced
in the House of Representatives recently
Bill to protect Migratory Fish, and to
place the time and taking thereof under
the direction and control of the Depart
ment of Commerce. The Bill is along
the line of that protecting Migratory
Bird Life, which has produced such won-
derful results, and has brought back a
great supply of wild life of the country.
1t is a well-known fact that the fishing
industry is rapidly being depleted The
grabbing interest of Maryland has lessens
ed so per cent in the last five years, be-
cause of the taking of the female crab
during Information in the waters of Vir-
ginia, thereby destroying the mother
crab which produces the great mass of
crab life which has been SO much enjoy
ed. 1t is peculiar. but well-known fact
that the female crab resorts to the wa
tiers around the capes during the winter
sea son where she hibernates until it is
time to move North in the spring; the
male crab, on the contrary, remains in
Lne waters OF maryland.
The fishermen have for some years
been catching the female crab by dredg
ing during these winter months, which
has resulted in the great decrease of the
Grabbing industry The shad industry of
the Boy has so lessened that several of
the hateheries have been closed. This is
caused largely by reason Of the catching
of shad during spawning season near the
mouth of the Bay. thus preventing the
shad from reaching the fresh water for
spawning.
In a number of the rivers of the coun-
try, fish life has been so lessened and the
catch has become SO small, that prices
for fish, which were low when fish was
abundant, have reached such abnormal
heights it is no longer considered cheap
food.
The Bill of Representative Linthicum,
will place under the control of the De-
partment of Commerce all those kinds of
fish which travel from one State to an
other, SO that no State can be destruc-
tive to the industry as to effect the other
States. Maryland can never hope to en-
joy it's former seafood prosperity so long
as Virginia is allowed to destroy the in
dustry, nor can Virginia expect to enjoy
this great industry if Maryland is allow
ed to destroy the fish during prOpagating
season. 1t is a matter which depends
upon National Legislation, and no great
success can come of it without this.
When we realize that it took Maryland
and Virginia 100 years to settle the Po-
tomac River question after all the oys-
tiers had been practically destroyed, we
can well imagine what will become of
the fish industry if some legislation of
this nature is not enacted.
