BLOOMINGTON

Raymond Jay was up from near
Bagley last Friday and reported that
never has he seen wild ducks so nu-
merous along the river as they have
been this spring-and still are, for
that matter. Mig" is corroborated in
this statement by many other resi-
dents Of Bagley and vicinity. The nu-
merous hunters in West Grant all
hope that some of the ducks at least
will nest in the vicinity, and if not,
that they all return next fall. If an
organized effort could be made for
the planting of wild rice and other
duck food in the ponds between Glen
Haven and Wyalusing, there should
again be good duck hunting in the
fall for West Grant nimrods Other
localities have adopted this plan with
good success, and authorities tell us
the abolition of spring shooting has
increased the number Of wild ducks
all over the country, so it seems reas-
enable that if feed is provided for
them, many Will make an extended
stay in our vicinity in the fall

An Important Notice
From the Evening Sun

The Evening Sun has made it abund-
antly clear that it believes in the wis
dom and value of Associations of far
mers for mutual help, and it confesses
to a special weakness for the farmers
OF Southern Maryland. The offending
headline was an attempt at humor, and
by no means represents our feeling to-
ward the Association. We regret that
ii should have been used as propagan-
da against the Association. The Ed
itor OF the Evening Sun.
To the Editor of the Evening Sun;
SIR There was an article in the
Evening Sun, OF August Is, headed
tKu Kluxing the Maryland Farmer"
and credited to the st. Mary's Beacon.
We presume you intended to convey in
q humorous way that everything was
being ku Kluxed these days, tor we
hardly think the Evening Sun would
take the stand that the farmers were
being in any way wrongly handled un-
der their contract with the Maryland
Tobacco Growrrs Association, as
there is abundant proof of its value
to the Tobacco farmer Of Maryland.
We wish to say the commission
trade of Baltimore has made great
capital of this, against the interest OF
the farmer as we'll as your paper, and
a large majority Of our members have
evidently misinintepreted this heading,
and it has created among our members
who are the most representative peo-
pie in Southern Maryland, feeling |
am sure you did intend to convey and
do not care to exist against your pa
per, and we really feel, as this article
has been reproduced and circulated
among all tobacco farmers in Mary
land, disappearing your true intent
in this matter, that notation from
YOU. properly conveying your real in
tent IN this article would be of mutual
help, for we know, and the facts are
abundant, that the Maryland Tobacco
Growers Association has been the sal
walton OF Southern Maryland.

The above is from the Evening Sun,
OF Baltimore, September It'll, setting
forth their true intent of an article in
previous edition, which was repro
duced by the commission trade of Bal
timore, and mailed to all tobacco far
mers OF Maryland, misrepresenting 10
you the true intent Of the Evening sun
or nature of this article, as relative TO
the Maryland Tobacco Growers Asso-
citation.
True facts, backed by merit, always
progress. Empty propaganda and
misrepresentation soon run their
course. The Evening Sun knows the
value Of the Maryland Tobacco Grow

HARDWARE REVIEW

New York, Oct. 11.-Hardware Age,
IN its weekly market summary saws;
Retail buyers are beginning to
show interest in holiday merchandise
at many of the principal wholesale
hardware markets throughout the
country. Jobbers anticipate a larger
volume of orders this year than last.
Current trading continues in good
volume. Reports from numerous Sec
tons indicate that buying is better at
present in rural communities than it
is in some of the larger cities.
THE weaker price tendencies in the
steel market are being watched close
ly by hardware buyers, and it is be.
lieved by some that lower prices may
be expected in certain hardware items
shortly after the first of the year.
Few, however, expect any material
changes in standard lines during the
