had two and one-half acres of yellow
sweet clover pasture for the past two
years, growing on land that is white
with alkali. Last year it pastured
three head of cows all summer and four
horses at night during the summer sea-
son. Mr.. Mahl stated that he had to
turn 40 head of stock in on this pasture
twice to keep it down.
Sweet clover makes an excellent
pasture and no bloating has been found
where there is enough stock on it to
keep it eaten off," says A. Z. Nicely
monds Of the Colorado Agricultural
College. There is some danger of
bloat if cattle are turned in on it after
it has been allowed to become rank, or
is not pastured heavy enough to keep
it down"

reached the street corner, seemed not
quite sure which direction to take. A
smasher who had been following her,
seized his opportunity, approached her
and said, "Er-beg pardon. but you seem
in doubt where you want to GO"
She gave him crushing glance.
''Indeed?" she said. well, I'm not
in doubt where want you to go.

RITCHlE TO OUTLINE
REDISTRICTINC PLAN
Will Name Commission To Draft
Legislation Changing City's
Representation.

Although he is not prepared yet tt
make any formal announcement, it is
Understood that Governor Richie ha.
practically decided to appoint a com
mission to draft legislation for redis
tricting Baltimore city's representa-
tion at Annapolis. This information
was obtained Monday from the Gov.
ernor.
The personnel of the commission
has not been selected. The Governor
has not determined upon he wisdom OF
u so-called partisan" commits
sion.
He feels that with the vitally i'm
portant political phases of the ques-
lions and the practical certainty that
political advantage is sure to be
sought by both Democrats and Re
publicans, there is but little likelihood
cf a commission of any sort drafting
a bill which will not produce fight
when it reaches the floor of the Leg
lslature. At the same time he fore
sees necessity for placing before the
Legislature some basic principles up
on which the work of redistrictine
may be started.
The Governor has requested Grif-
fenhagen & Associates, Inc, who are
conducting for him survey of the
State government with a view to
working nut consultations and i'm
provementS in the present system, to
embody m their recommendations
provision that the Attorney General
of the State hereafter be appointed by
the Governor. This became known
Monday.
The report of the experts will, it is
expected, be filed with the Governor
IN about two weeks.
A further recommendation which,
ii is understood the report will con
tain is that the Governor be given the
power to appoint the State Treasurer.
Under the present system the Treas
urer is elected every two years by
the State Senate and House of Dele
gats on Joint ballot.
1t was pointed out by one of these
conducting the survey that in nearly
all of the States where progressive
changes have been launched in State
government the Attorney General and
the Treasurer are both appointed by
the executive.

T[W(O / MORE FIRES
IN WORCESTER
VAUDEVILLE And Berlin Both Suf-
fer Losses AT The Hands OF
Flames This Week.

Two other fires in addition to tt.
ore noted elsewhere in these columns
as occurring in Snow Hill, were re-
rorted in the county this week. Fire
broke out in the garage at Whaley-
vile at about 9.45 o'clock Monday
night and completely destryed the
building and the bulk of it's contents.
The fire IS supposed to have started
from wood-burnlng heater. The
damage will approximate $4,000, the
greater part of which, it is under
stood, is covered by insurance. The
less consisted of the building a Cadi-
Ice, a Ford, large stock of tires
and all the accessories on hand. The
building, which was erected few
years ago by Mr.. Peter a. Wimbrow,
vas owned at the time of the fire by
Mr. Thurman Dale, of Whaleyville.
The other fire, which was of un-
known origin, occurred at Berlin, this
county, at an early hour on Tuesday
uorning and destroyed that portion
of the E. S. Adkins & Company :
branch plant known as the "Old Tin
gle" factory. The resultant damage
was placed at from $4,000 to $4,000,
which was partly covered by insur-
ance.

THE POLICE FORCE
A GREAT SUCCESS

The new State Police system which
recently went into effect, has met the
hearty approval of the citizens of this
section and words of praise are herd
for it on all sides. Pocomoke City
seems especially fortunate in he as
sgnment of Mr.. Edward McC. Morris
to this section. He has only been Oh

sgns of improvement are seen. His
manner Of dealing with the people is
The kind that is bound to bring re
suits. By his diplomacy he is getting
the people out of the old ruts IN which
tIey have been travelling and his
work is telling in every direction.
Especially is this true with those who
have been lax in their observance of
the motor vehicle laws. Persons who
heretofore have been guilty of minor
violations have been benefited by the
new officers dealings and the cordi-
tions on our streets and public high
l.ays show a n'arked improvement
Cur people are back of the sy tel1
and will give it that support which is
due from all law-abding citizens. Its
al excellent move and the promoters
ot it are to be heartily congratulated.

THEY MAY REFUSE
BUS Line PERMIT
Salisbury Interests Said To Lack
Finances To Garry The
Plan Through.

Following a visit to Washington
Wednesday by Joseph L. Wicke$,
traffic expert of the Public ServicA
Commission, it is intimated that thA
commission may refuse permit to
Salisbury interests who are seeking a
freight and passenger bus line fran
chise to operate from Elkton to the
lower Eastern Shore, including POGO
moke City.
Mr.. Wickes' visit was to confer with
representatives of the Tidewater
Lines, Inc, which is successfully op-
Grating an extensive rural transpor-
tation system throughout Souther's
Maryland counties. The conference
was arranged as a result of cohdi-
tions discovered by the Public Ser
vice Commission when members last
week Travelled over the route proposed
Tor he Eastern Shore line.
They are said to have been i'm
pressed with the lack of indications
tbat any financial strength had been
enlisted TO launch the proposed Shore
line. Some months ago application
vas made to the commission by a
Salisbury lawyer for permission 70
inaugurata the line. This application
was said to be in the name of pro-
moters who planned a $150,000 cor
poration. When the trip of inspec-
ton was made last week the con-
missioners are said to have found lit
tie interest manifested in the line
except on che part of probable pa
irons.
In contrast to indications of strong
capitalization and efficient organiza-
ton, as manifested by the Tidewater
Lines when Governor Ritchie and
PARTY inspected the Southern Mary
land route some weeks ago, the COM
mission was compelled to shift for it.
self in large measure during the trip
The TidWater Lines were commend
ID by Governor Ritchie and members
Of the commission following the
Southern Maryland trip. 1t was an
Lounced that while firmly convinced
there is a bright future for motor bus
lines in this State, the policy would be
to go slow in granting franchises. The
commission would, it was said, go
slowly except in cases where suffi-
cheney of capital was clearly estab-
lished, and the commission was assur-
ed there would be no danger of its
franchises being peddled for purposes
Of stock promotion.
Reports current Tuesday were to
the effect that if franchise is grant
ed on the Eastern Shore it is very
likely to be issued to the same inter-
ests which have demonstrated their
ability to put motor bus transporta-
tion on its feet in Southern MarylanSe
