"In grain Garrett draws the first
place in the production and acreage
of oats and buckwheat, the third place
in timothy and clover, the sitxh place
in hay and forage, and away down
the list in wheat and other grains.
Potato production last year
amounted to 10000 bushels-rather
surprising that only nine counties in
the State, passed this county's mark.
With less than one-half of the pro-
ducing land under cultivation, the
value estimated for the land per acre
is $23.75. This condition is probably
because more than 80 per cent of
farms are operated by the owners.
The farmers are the most progressive
in the State. They will try anything
once.
'The most deserted place in Oak
land today is the Court House. Nor
is the whole front Of the building
plastered with notices of sheriff sales
and such. While the rural life of
Garrett is marking time, it is en-
ploying itself by slipping out the

day there are in the Garrett county
high schools $50 pupils. He showed
the Importance of the Act of 1922,
which makes it possible for Garrett
county to give to its children great.
ly improved educational advantages.
Through its State taxes, Garrett
county pays into the State treasury
for schools about one-ffth the amount
of money the county receives from
the State treasury for the financial
support of the schools of the county.
Thus it can be seen that the State
of Maryland has attained that ideal
whereby the counties of the State
are helped by each other. 1t is nee
essary, however, that in order to
profit by this equalization fund, Gre
ated by the Act of 1922, Garrett coun-
ty must have a minimum tax of 67
cents per hundred dollars for the cur
rent financial support of the schools

of $4,000 to be voted upon By the

MANY QUESTIONS TO Be
VOTED UPON NOV. 7
Besides Candidates, Five Amend
mentS and Bond Issue.

In this issue of The Republican by
direction Of the Board of Supervisors
of Elections for Garrett county, is
printed the official ballot to be voted
at the election to be held on Tuesday,
November 18th, as well as the notice
Of election as required by the Act of
Assembly governing elections.
As will be seen by perusal of the
ballot the voters of the county will
have an opportunity of voting for d
candidate for the United States Sen
ate and candidate for Representa-
tive in Congress as well as for or
against five proposed Constitutional
amendments and bond issue for
public school purposes in this county.
Had it not been for the fact that
these various Constitutional amend
ments and the bond issue have to be
printed upon the ballots at this time,
very little newspaper space would be
required for the names of the Sena-
torial and Congressional candidates
and much less time on the part of the
election officials when the ballots are
canvassed will be required to count
and tally them.
The Constitutional amendments do
not appeal to the people of the coun-
ties and indications are that outside
Of Baltimore City a majority of the
votes cast viii be against th2:r adop-
tior.

nee for Congress, is making an ag-
