GEORGIA APPLES
LEAD THE WORLD.

THERE time when California and the State of
Washington had a monopoly the apple industry.
1t CALIFORNIA; boast that size fed the world the largest
and best apples grown
Today North Georgia has stepped in side tracked
the Pacific growers and Georgia find the greatest
apple-producing center in the world.
The Atlanta Constitution n recent editorial had the
following along this line:
than $50 carloads the largest the apple
history This addition other grown extensively and
successfully in that section
Never given to successful growing because OF
GOODNESS OF the climate Northeast Georgia for many years did
not have other and apparently highly

But that because Northeast Georgia had not found

experiment proved Of the finest apple and growing
sections the United States Since that discovery made
horticultural development and progress this direction have
been rapid and although progress direction
been it has not been swift should might have
been because the beginning apple growing
substantial investment and the slower in coming
than those for other crops
Now however the fine flavor the splendid food value
OF the Georgia apple have been well proven the of
apple culture that section Of the abundany assured
There be little doubt under these circumstances that
the capital for the further development the industry
will be speedily forthcoming and it will long before
Georgia will be giving the only apples

Of them. s....
We ready to predict hat the Georgia apple will
be internationally famous and in practically world wide
demand.

The news that something In the ma
ture Of a tentative offer to the throne
of Albania has been made to Jerome
Napoleon Bonaparte is reminder that
the Bonapartes have long had a close
connection with America. This con-
nection began with the Bonaparts who
was made king Of westphalia by the
first Napoleon, Of whom he was the
youngest brother. This Jerome Bona
parts settled In the United States after
being exiled from France by his broth
er, and remained until his appoint
ment as king, In 1907. The present
bearer Of the name, who has come into
prominence, 10 q grsat-grandson Of the
king, and a nephew Of Charles J. Bona

zen Of democratic America should now

BUNDLE DAY

Have you got your bundle ready for
Bundle Day? If you haven't, hurry,
for Bundle Day is May II.
Search the attic, 60 through the
trunks, empty the cupboards, get out
every old garment and every old pair
of shoes you can spare, for they are
urgently, critically needed in the Cau-
casus and the Levant.
Thousands upon thousands of little
children, great hosts Of adults, are
looking to Maryland for clothing to
replace the tatters they are now wear
ing. These tatters and rags are all
that is left of the clothing from last
Bundle Day sent from Maryland.
Little children are standing in
groups, their bare feet purple from
the cold, moving uneasily upon the
frozen mud; men and women too, are
gathered, waiting for the ship that
will bring the old clothes and shoes
from Maryland, which will mean
warmth and comfort for them.
These people have no hope but
America, the nations surrounding
them cannot help them. Their needs
are SO great that they require tons
and tons of clothing and old shoes.
Maryland is asked to give 100000
pounds as her quota on Bundle Day,
May 18th, and Harold F. Pellegrin
State Director, knows that the State
will give this, and even more; that
Maryland will not permit Pennsylva-
MIA nor the District of Columbia,
which is also helping, to give more
than this state.
These can be used: coats and sweat
ers, dresses, blankets, wool shirts,
heavy hosiery, wool gloves and nit
tens, boots and shoes, (tie in pairs) ;
sheets for bandages, new cloth or gar
ments. Send to the nearest bundle
station, or prepaid to the Near East

LOST

County Commissioners Toms and
Dudderar forgot to take a compass
with them last week but they won't
overlook that item again. While they
are not saying much about it, they
admit that for six or eight hours they
were lost in the heart of the noun
tains between Thurmont and Sabillas-
vile, and when they finally got their
bearings they were eight or ten miles
in Pennsylvania.
It seems that they started for
point near Sabillasville to investigate
county road. The road was in the
heart of the mountain and because of
it's isolated location was not used very
much. 1t had gotten into condition
that needed attention, and the two
commissioners decided to inspect it
with view of improving it. After
leaving Thurmont they travelled in
their automobile for some distance
over rough road, and finally found
themselves at the end Of the road, out
of sight of human habitaton. They
then got on another road and after
travelling this highway for some miles
they met two women, Of whom they
inquired their way, and again started
toward their objective. After travel
ing for a long time, both became sus-
picious that they were on the wrong
road. Finally, however, they inquired
from other persons and to their
amazement found that they had cross
ed the state line and were some dis
tance in Pennsylvania. They were
then put on the right road and after
long journey reached home. One Of
the commissioners said they crossed
Friends Creek five times, and both
admitted that for the time being they
had lost their way and did not know
which way to 60.

After Many Ysars.

A proposed wing Of the American
Museum Of Natural Sciences in New
York, which was commenced nine
years ago and abandoned for lack
Of funds, is about to be started In
earnest, the money having been So
cured for the work. At that time the
foundations were laid, but when the
expenditure for this had been CON.
sumed the work was stopped. The
new wing will be used mainly for. the
housing Of the marine exhibit Of the
institution, which Is very extensive,
but which has heretofore been boxed
up for the lack Of space to properly
exhibit 1t.

PERMITS TO BUILD

Beginning June l every person OF
corporation, before erecting or re-
pairing any building in Frederick
County at an expense of $3.50 or more
will be required to procure a permit
from the Board of County Commits
sioners. The Legislature passed bill
to this effect at it's recent session,
Delegate w. B. Cutshall having intro
duced it in the House of Delegates.
When applying for a permit, which
will be issued free of cost by the
commissioners, every applicant will
be required to give the dimensions
and the estimated cost of the proposed
building. Permits will have to be Sc
cured before the work can be started.
In order not to work a hardship on
persons living in remote sections of
the county, it will not be necessary to
apply in person for permit. Persons
desiring permits can write to the COM
missioners setting forth the necessary
information and in return the permits
will be mailed direct to the applicant.
Any person or corporation failing to
comply with this new law will, upon
conviction, be fined not less than $40
nor more than $100 and costs for each
offense.
The object of this law is to get the
names of owners of new buildings on
the assessment books for the purpose
of taxation. Heretofore persons have
been erecting buildings and their
names never get on the assessment
books until several years afterwards,
it is pointed out. This county is SO
large that it has been most difficult
to get all the names of owners of new
buildings and by the passage of this
act it is thought that this trouble will
be overcome.

DON'T TELL HIM

For some time past many persons
have observed chain attached to the
Standard Oil Company truck and
dragging on the ground. We saw it.,
and was in the act Of notifying the
driver of the truck, but didn't. 9th
ers saw the same thing and hailed the
driver. Don't bother about that
chain. It's fast at one end. The
driver knows it drags. It's supposed
to drag and he doesn't care to be told
about it. Why is it there? Insur-
ance companies demand it. Should
lightning strike the truck, the chain
conducts the current to the ground.
