$3.50, 100000 To Be Saved Annually
BY Maryland Farmers.

8 -
With high cost of production and
unsatisfactory marketing conditions
for most products, the farmers Of
Maryland, as in other States are
finding farming more or less UNI
profitable at present. Notwithstand-
ing this fact, swine growers who
have followed sound methods of
breeding and feeding and who have
been able to keep their herds free
from disease have secured highly
satisfactory returns from the oper-
atoms.
The swine losses IN Maryland run
well over $350,0O0 annually. Not
all of this is caused by hog cholera.
but the correcting of the major
trouble will do much to clear up the
others. While these losses are much
less than those experienced a few
years ago, they are yet far too large
and add much to the encouragement
of farming.
To correct this condition does
not mean the expenditure of large
sums of money nor does 1t demand
long and serious conferences. How
ever. it does necessitate constant
care and cooperation with the au-
thorities on the part of those en-
gagged in raising hogs.
without the germs you cannot
have hog cholera. Remember then
that Mr.. Hog Cholera Germ has
neither arms, wings or legs, nor
does it own an auto or aeroplane.
This being the case, If it reaches
your hogs it must be carried to
them.
Observe the following advice ana
help save that $350,000 for Mary
land farmers.
Do not feed your hogs any product
that might contain any bones, rinds
or scraps of pork.
Do not permit any hogs to be
brought to your place unless you
are positive that they come from
premises where there is no hog
cholera infection.
If your hogs show sign Of sick,
ress do not wait. Call your veteri-
'arian at once. If no veterinarian
IS available notify your County
Agent. or the U. S. Specialist in
your district
Promptly burn or bury the carcass
Of any animal or fowl that dies on
your premises. .

THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION
NEW TARIFF A COFFIN FOR
CORPSE OF PROSPERITY.
Especial CorrespOndence.)

Especial Correspondence.)
The Fordney- McCumber Profiteers'
Tariff bill, which is estimated to
double the taxation of the American
people; that is to say, to add an
other $4,000, 900, 900 in the way OF
taxes, but of which only few hum
bred millions will go into the
Treasury, the balance into the pock-
cts Of the special privilege class, has
been signed by the President and is
now law.
This Tariff bill, aptly termed "the
coffin for the corpse of prosperity"
will fall heaviest upon farmers and
working men, by reason of the fact
that it will still further curtail the
farmers foreign markets, and by de-
stroying what little is left of our
foreign trade will greatly reduce
production in manufacturing lines
as well as in natural industries.
In speech just prior to the pas
sage of the bill Senator Underwood,
the Democratic leader of the Sem
ate, called attention to some of the
outrageous rates Of the bill, particu-
larly to the wool schedule, in which
he showed that the tax levied on
raw wool would collect out of the
pockets of the American people
5000, 900 900, only $20,00O,000 OF
which would go into the treasury Of
the United States and the balance
into the pockets of the special inter-
ests.
Senator Underwood excoriated
that feature Of the bill which trans
fers the taxing power from Congress
to the President, and said:
IT do not think it will last long as
a law. If it should last long, IL the,
terms Of the bill were to stay on the
statute books for two decades, I
would predict the rottenest filth
and corruption that could grow out
Of such a bureaucracy, that would
be stencil in the nostrils of all
good people. But I do not think it
will last. I think before that day
comes the American people will take
the size of what this Congress has
done, will realize that the Congress
has laid down great responsibility
that was given to them, which the
Constitution of the United States
has placed in their hands. that they
have surrendered great trust. and
the American people will rebuke
any party and any set Of men who
have been guilty of abandoning a
trust like this given to their safe

UNsCRUPULOUs METHODS UN
AVAILING.

No law>was ever fought more bit
terly than the prohibition amend
ment to- the Constitution. Every
power that money, brains, unscrup-
ulous propaganda could devise and
use has been brought to bear to de-
feat the purposes Of this amendment.
And yet in spite of all this, in spite
of everything that has been done
to nullify the effect of prohibition;
it has been found by careful inyesti-
gators that in spite of all that the
enemies of the prohibition could do,
the amendment and the laws back
ing it up lave been of immense
benefit to the country.
In the current number of Worlds
Work is an account of certain inves-
LEGATIONS made by the presiding of
fetal of the Chicago Municipal
Court, Judge VIM. NJ Gemmill. He
has gathered his figures by direct
communication with heads of the
various city governments and police
departments, SO that his figures can
be relied on as accurate. One of the
most surprising facts obtained is
that since the prohibitory amend
ment went into effect 20 per cent. of
the jails in the United States have
been without prisoners. and of the
remaining 80 per cent. the number
Of prisoners has been reduced any
where from Is to 80 per cent. And
this has been general, not confined
to any one locality, but result Of
prohibition common to all parts of
this country.
One result of Judge C9mmill's In
vestigation appears in his statemert,
that Never before were Americans
SO clean and law abiding rs the
are today. We have much crime in
America. but four-fifths Of it ama-
mates directly from the saloons
which are still running in violation
of the law and from the illicit sale
of liquor.

A statement has been issued by
Henry Ford to the seventy thousand

are to be barred at all times under
penalty of immediate discharge. 1t
is said that Federal and state au-
thorities have not been able to
wholly enforce the prohibition laws.

the employees has caused accidents.

ment is a part of the fundamental
law of this country. Politics has
interfered with enforcement of this
law, but so far as our organization
is concerned, it is going to be en-
forced to the letter."

President Harding has vetoed the

The executives's action was re-

some time to come, as it appeared to
be almost certain that the veto
would be sustained by the senate.

to add one-sixth of the total sum of

THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOClATION
EASTERN SHORE VOTES DRY:
Recent Primary Blow to Wet Gang
Goldsborough Nominated By
Big Vote.

u "
Goldsborough Nominated BY
Big Vote.
The wet gang of Bafsinaore City
has suffered a severe setback in the
Eastern Shore primary. The wet
press of Baltimore has had a great
deal to say in recent months about
the wetness of the Eastern Shore.
The claim has been made that no
longer will the nine counties of the
Eastern Shore support dry candi-
dates. One of the favorite insults
of this wet press has been to charge
individuals of the First COMPRESSION
al District with drunkenness. The
papers Of the nine counties dug the
question up and carried the news to
the people. The vote in the recent
congressional primaries shows but
little hope for the wet gang many
of the nine counties.
1t will be remembered that Talbot
county boasts of having the only or
ganization of the Association OPP
posed to the Prohibition Amend
ment. They went in to the fight to
nominate wet candidate for Con-
gress and endorsed A. M. jackson
of Salisbury. OF the 1861 votes
cast Mr.. Jackson received but 81.
This would seem to indicate that the
wet gang either is not able to vote
its own members or they have been
boasting to the public about the
large numbers which ehey do not in
fact have.
Mr.. Sisk, who advertised heavily
in the papers, goes down to deserved
defeat. One Of his favorite state
ments was, Save the boys and girls
from the bootlegger' and then adj
vocated the repeal of the law en-
forcement bill SO that the nation
would be prevented from operating
against bootleggers. We could
scarcely understand Mr.. Sisk's cam
paign. That he is man of high
personal character, no one ques-
tions, but he has been obsessed with
the notion of going to Congress and
felt that the way to. be nominated
was to cater to the wet votes. His
disappointment must be keen. II
would look like the Eastern Shore
can be depended upon to defeat wei
candidates every time they venture
before the people. Even in Wicom-
leo county, where large part Of
the Jackson vote was compliment.
airy, Mr.. Goldsborough defeated him
by almost four to one.
Mr.. Goldsborough's nomination
by over ten to one over the man
openly supported by the wet organ
ization is signal victory for him
and for law and order. Mr.. Colds
borough was marked for slaughter
simply because he was faithful to
his oath of Office and voted to en-
force the Constitution of the United
States. The people of his own CON
gressional district have spoken in
no uncertain terms for his nomina-
ton. 1t is to be hoped that the
Republicans will take lesson from
this vote and see to it that no one is
placed on their ticket for Congress
unless he stands out four-square in
favor of law and order.-American
