1t is dangerous to the conduct and
welfare of any institution or enter
prise to have "kin-folks'' on a board
of management. One member out
of a family and no relatives should
be the rule. Otherwise a board be-
comes hampered and often-times en-
barrassed over questions and prob
lens that arise, involving "a free
ballot" that is necessarily influenced
by the relationships referred to and
the question at stake runs great risk
of being controlled by clique.

An advertisement in newspaper is
read by more people and costs less
than any other known mode Of ad-
vertising. Thousand per thousand
circulars cost more than the space
occupied by an advertisement, and
then there is the additional expense
of circulation. If sent through the
mail, envelopes and stamps must be
bought and clerks must be paid to
fold and mail the circulars. II dis
tributed by hand, they blow away
and nobody reads them. All these

met in Mr. Furst's Offices today for
the purpose OF considering the Demo-

animous feeling OF those present was
that the interests of the State require
the election of Democratic Senator
this fall, and that TO assure this is the
paramount duty OF the Democratic
party They felt that party harmony
was essential 70 this. and that TO this
end the primary. which is now under
way, should, if possible. be avoided.
For this reason they requested
Senator Norris to withdraw from the
race. provided he was able to do so
with fairness TO his many warm sup
porters and to himself They felt
that this course would save the Demo
cratic party from the bitter primary
fight which has begun in its ranks
and from the bad feeling and sore
spots which the continuance of this
fight would cause. and which could
not fail but impair the splendid OPP.
portunity for Democratic success in

those present. solely as Democrats

ELIMINATE GAS WASTE
IS WARNING GIVEN BY
. AMERICAN ASSOCIATION

NEW YORK, Aug. 24.--Eliminate
all waste and non-essential use OF gas
Is the warning issued today by the
American Gas Association 10 the ma
tons housewives
Gas companies are already saving
every pound OF coal they can, says the
association, and housewives are urged
to cooperate with them by practic-
ing certain economies so that every
one may benefit when cold weather
sets in Here are specific ways in
which the public is asked 70 help:
Don't use open-fiame gas lights.
Equip burners with mantles They
save gas.
Turn off the gas before. instead Of
after removing the cooking utensil.
Don't permit a gas flame to overlap
the sides OF vessel.
Always boil water in covered tea
kettle When the water comes TO a
boiling point, turn down the gas
Plan your cooking so that one
burner or one oven cooks more thar
one dFllGie Oh lDou IT Nie SAINT ltlHc'
Remember that II takes no more gas
TO cock twelve potatoes than 1t does
to cook six.
Don't use the giant burner on your
gas range when a smaller burner will
do. tAlso see that your gas fame is
blue in color, Yellow or white
flames are wasteful
BE careful what kind of cooking
utensils you use. Bake in tin pans in
stead of sheet iron or agate pans
Don't use the oven or broiler to toast
small quantity OF bread Use a
small toaster.
Never light the gas for top cooking
until everything is ready.
Clean appliances save gas. keeT

Every two weeks boil range burners
in water and soda and let them dry
before using.

vices sold by peddlers. Such devices

PROPOSE TO RUSH
FERTILIZER TO FARM;
PRODUCTS MENACED

Maryland fertilizer manufacturers
are making q desperate attempt on
the eve of the fall planting to have
fertilizer included under the Inter
state Commerce Commissions prior
ity freight order. Fertilizer they re-
gard as essential to next years food
production and they wish it given for
the next six weeks the same freight
preference as food. The planting
must proceed whether the farmers get
fertilizer or not, and, with the present
delay, they say. the fertilizer will not
arrive in time.
Representative Frederick n. Zihl-
man. of Maryland, has taken up with
the Interstate Commerce Commission
letter on the subject from Malcolm
A. Long, of the Central Chemical
Company, Hagerstown. The letter, in
part, follows:
"In view of the tremendous car
shortage which now faces the country
we would request you use your in
iuence to have fertilizer on the lis.
or preferred movement by the ses
eral railroads, just the same as food
products AS you we'll know. any cur
tailment in the movement of fertilizer
over the. next six weeks would be &
severe blow to the country at large in
the way of reduced crops next year.
I'VE expect to have a demand fol-
about 1900 to 1000 carloads of ferti,
lizer over the next six weeks. If fer
tilizers do not arrive in time tn,
farmers canno. postpone their seed
ing time, but must SOW their crops
without fertilizers. This, of course
means small anu inferior crops. I'm
mediate action is necessary"

Homemade Poultry Feeder

A good homemade self-feeder for
poultry reported to the United States
Department of Agriculture by the
county extension agent of Knox Coun-
ty, Ind, is one made of an old mower
wheel, barrel with both ends knock
ed out, an old washtub. and small
platform of rough boards. The wheel
is first laid on the platform. The bar
rel is then placed on the wheel, filled
with dry mash, and the tub turned
over the top of it for a cover. A bar
rel should be used which leaves just
enough space between its edge an(
the rim of the mower wheel to allow
room to feed. This prevents the feed
from being scratched outside the rim
