attention among engineers. It shows
distinct advantages here by it's econ
omy in power, it's saving of labor and
minimum depreciation charges. For
instance one man in 8 hours per day
with 2 15-horse power pumps is doing
what under the original plan would
have required three shifts of men,
pumping all of the "a hours with 65-
horse power motor. Here is saving
of two men and electric power as
well as working the machinery all
the time, always high element of
expense. Another advantage is the
unit system. The original plan pro-
vided for complete system in opera
ton, the only provision for emergency
being an entire duplication. This sys-
tenn is known as the dual system,
making possible to operate whole or
part. 1t is made up entirely of units
in every operation. Pumps, motors,
engines, wells can be cut off or put
on at option. Then, too, additional
units can be made without in any way
effecting the efficiency of the present
operation. To sum up, the system
installed is given rating by engi-
neers of 81 per cent efficient COM
pared to 40 per cent for the usual
type. The initial costs are slightly
higher but not sufficiently so but that
few months operation will offset
that. The taxpayer has had installed

ton Cemetery with all military honors.
He left here number OF years ago
and vent TO the Canal Zone, from
which place he enlisted in the u. s.
Army and saw service in France dur
ing the recent world war.
lie leaves surviving him his mother,
Mrs. Julia Hill, four brothers and two
sisters, who are Messrs. J. M. and A.
j. Hill, of this county; G. ID. and w.
II. Hill, OF Washington; Mesdamcs
John b. button and f. N. Callahan,
also of Washington.
Young Hill was a member OF the
American Legion and Loyal Order of
Moose in the Canal Zone, which Or
ders had charge OF the funeral services
there. He was very popular in his
adopted home and, according to a Ca
nal Zone paper, had the largest tuner
al OF any man IRON the States who
died in the Canal Zone.
Chaplain Deane, of the 18th Infan-
try, who had charge Of his obseauies
at Christobal, in eulogizing our de-
parted friend, spoke as follows
Life is successful life when ii has
fulhl He'd its national duties and when
Il has shown its loyalty to civic vir-
tues.
Let US praise our departed friend
Let us praise him for the noble sacri-
flee he was willing to make for the
country he loved so we'll.
I'm order to really eulogize a man,
one must have lived with him, but
when one looks around and sees the
great tribute which is being paid An
drew Hill, the national, the fraternal
and the civic organizations that are
present one cannot but be inspired, so
that when we in our turn lay down our
LIES burden they will gather round us
too.
- He did not make the supreme sac
riiice, yet, when called upon on that
great day, he was ready and responded
loyalty. Therefore in a sense he too
has made the supreme sacrifice, he has
made great sacrifice, for though the
Almighty God preserved bis life on
the battlefelds of France and returned
him to his home and loved ones, he
had offered that life.
when citizen fulflls his civic
virtues, he practically does Gods will.
What our country needs today is
more thorough understanding OF de-
mocracy, more thorough knowledge
of the constitution, yet it is not the
country, but ourselves who are TO
blame. There is today too much of
the following of the golden calf. God
is too readily turned aside for riches.
and this afternoon we must feel in
spired by the memory of man who
fulfilled the commandments of his
Maker and obeyed the laws of his
country"
II know Andy was a great boy, for
we liked it together through Column

Ian, "but no pen or tongue can find
a greater tribute than that of the great
big procession which followed him as
far as it could upon his last long Jour

Marlboro Fair.

The coming Fair at Upper Marlboro
on September l2th, lasting until the
18th. will be in many ways the most in
teresting and instructive fair that has
ever been held in Prince Georges
county. The Exhibit from the Univer-
sity of Maryland in itself is well worth
the trip to the Fair Grounds. This ex-
hibit is being brought from the Educa-
tional Exhibit OF Maryland at the III
monium Fair. II will consist ofmany
things helpful and useful to know
how to know what calf to keep, and
what one to send TO market; how to
tell what crops will grow better than
others In any particular field on your
farm. Many other things, and this
one in especial, though it will not be
included In the Educational Exhibit, a
practical talk on whole wheat bread,
and whole wheat cooked 10 other ways,
and the good value OF the entire wheat
as contrasted with the white -four that
is usually used for the making of
bread.
This is Southern Maryland Fair.
1t is for everyone in the lower coun-
ties, an opportunity TO profit by these
exhibits, and it is an opportunity,
also, for the many ladies who en-
broider, and those handy with the
needle and paint brush, TO enter work,
for there never before was so many or
such generous premiums offered by
this, or any other Fair in Maryland.

Meet to Plan Creamery.

About $50 farmers and business men
of the county met at the Court House
Saturday afternoon last to make plans
for the establishment OF a cooperative
creamery for Southern Maryland.
For several months County Agent
Burdette has been working to interest
farmers and others OF the county in
the project, and the meeting was a re-
suit of his efforts.
A temporary organization, with Mr..
j. +. Wetherald, OF this county, chair
man, and County Agent W. d. Posey,
of Prince Georges, secretary, was
formed, and constitution and by
laws adopted.
Brandywine, Waldorf and La Plata
were suggested as suitable sites for
the creamery, and residents of each OF
these towns are now exerting every
effort to have tho enterprise estab-
lished in their respective localities.
1t is the plan that thecreamery be a
stock company with an authorized cap
ital OF $50, GOO, but not to issue more
than SIS, 600 of this on the start. Pc
titions are now being circulated to Sc

The Leonardtown baseball team de-
feated Bel Alton on the latter's grounds
Sunday last by the tcore of II to 10.
and though the boys from st. Mary's
won, they were given such shock in
the 9Th inning, that 1t will take the bal
ance of the season for them to recover.
The visitors had things their own way
until the eighth inning the score 10
to 0 in their favor-when the home
boys rallied with batting streak,
knocking Cough and his three success
sors all over the field. and tieing the
score. AT this juncture Judge CANA
Her arrived upon the scene and the
visitors seemed to revive somewhat.
First at the bat in the 9th, they made
two more runs. Cough was put back
in the box, and though he soon filled
the bases, with one down, he tightend
up and retired in succession the next
batters in manner which few anna
tours can excel.
Mates, for Bel Alton, who has been
pitching good ball all the season, was
hit apparently at will; but even so,
had he been given proper support in
the outiieid, a a. difsaferent tale might nov
be told
While at the bat in the It'll inning,
left fielder Cochrane, of Bel Alton,
sprained tendon in ankle and retired
