TO RECLAIM LAND ON THE
PENINSULA

An area comprising from 5000
to 100000 acres of waste land in
Wicomico and Worcester counties,
Md, and in Sussex county, Della
ware, which. at the best can now be
regarded only as liability, may be
reclaimed, if efforts of the citizens
of the three counties are recognized
by the United States Government.
Some $4,000 acres, or about one
half of the area, is in such condition
that cultivation ON a large scale
could be carried on, should proper
drainage be effected. The remain
der is in woodland, the larger por-
ton of which could be converted in
to highly renumerative propositions
as lumber.
geographically the entire section
located on the east side of Wicom-
leo, the west and northwest sides of
Worcester and the lower portion of
Sussex county should drain its
waters into the Pocomoke river.
Logs, partially decayed, and vegeta-
ton in enormous quantities from
the woodland have been deposited
into the upper section of the river,
thus causing the water. from even a
small rainfall to "back up" flooding
the entire area.
If an appropriation can be secured
for the dredging Of the stream
now navigable for bay craft as far
as Snow Hill, and the head of the
stream cleared of the deposits of de-
bris, the water could be drained off
properly, it is believed. The entire
project, it is estimated, will cost less
than $4,000.
Before the converting of the sixty
eighth Congress next March, the
Maryland and Delaware representa-
tives in both Houses will be waited
upon by delegation from the three
counties and urged to advocate the
appropriation. The project is now
beyond mere suggestion and a
concerted effort is becoming mani
fest in the sections adjacent to the
area. About 10 years ago Senator
Orlando Harrison of Worcester ex-
erted every effort to secure an APP
preparation of $4,000 for the pur-
pose of beginning the work upon
the drainage of the land, but for
some reason the petition died short
ly after it was introduced.
Those vitality interested in the
farming interests in this locality are
determined to keep the matter alive
until the project is completed. The
Saulisbury-Wicomico Chamber of
Commerce, organizations in the
various county towns and prominent
farmers and truckers are being en-
listed in the move.

On January 1, 1898 there were on
the farms of Maryland about $4,000 /
more head of livestock than a year
preceding, according to a statement
made public recently by John S.
Dennee, federal crop statistician at
Baltimore for the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, co-operat-l
ing with the Extension Service of
the University of Maryland. Horses
decreased 1000 head; mules re-
manned the same; milk cows in
creased 1000; other cattle increased
5000; sheep increased 1000; and
swine increased $4,000.
The total numbers on farms Jan.
1 are estimated as follows: Horses,
10000; mules, $4,000; milk cows,
$4,000; other cattle, 100000;
sheep, $4,000; and swine, 100000.
The total value of livestock has
increased $245, 900, or about OF
per cent, during the year; that is
from total of $34,894,000 on Jan.
1, 1922, to $35,139,OOO on Jan. /.
1928. This increase is due in part
to increased numbers of some kinds
of animals dairy and meat cattle,
hogs and sheep-and to better prices
| prevailing for cattle other than
dairy stock, and for hogs and sheep.
Horses, with value of $50 per
lead as compared with $87 a year
ago; are lower than they have been
at any time in over twenty years.
The total value of horses is estima-
ted at $11,696,00O, which is $223,-
600, or say per cent less than a
year ago.
| Mules have declined in price $40
per head, the January 1 price being
Sill. The total value of mules is
$3,663,000, reduction of $4,000,
or 8 per cent as compared with a
year ago.
Horses and mules are the only
classes of Maryland farm animals
that have a present value below that
Of 1914 The average values per
head on Jan. /, 1914 were: horses
$119; mules $143.
Milk cows have declined per-
cent in value per head, from $63 to
$50, and in. total value have declined
$456,000, say per- cent, from $12,-
096,000 to $11, $40, 900. According
to reports from farmers, cows kept
for dairy purposes were MIXED in
1922 an average of 308 days against
305 days in 1921.
Other cattle have increased per
cent in value per head, from $500
to $500, and in total value have
Increased $3O1,OO0. or 8 per cent,
from $3,254.000 to $3,555,O00.
All cattle have thus declined
$155,0O0, or per cent, from $751;
100000 to $15,195,000.
Swine have increased in value per
head 13 per cent, from $11.50 to
$500, and in total value have in
creased $609,0OO, or about 10 per
cent, from $3,278,00O to $3,S87, 600.
Sheep have increased in value per
head Fl per cent, from $500 toll
$3.50, and in total value have in
creased $146,0O0, or 26 per cent,
1from $552,O0O. to $698,000.
The numbers of the different
classes of livestock on the farms of
4 Maryland, expressed in percentages
of the numbers on Jan. 1, 1922,
are: Horses, SO per cent; mules, 100
per cent; milk cows, 1O1 per cent;
other cattle, 1913 per cent; swine,
los per cent; and sheep, los per
cent.
Comparing present average values
with January 1, 1914 average
values, it is found that the value of
horses on January 1, 1923 ISIS per
cent less; mules % per cent less;
milk cows, IL per cent more; other
cattle, 20 per cent more; sheep SO
per cent more; and swine "a per

Finding Value Of Milk

A hundred years or more ago The

About decade ago the Chinese be.

by missionaries, and. in the vicinity
of the mission stations, began using
their own cows and water Buffalo as
food sources. Once started on mill

leaps and bounds. Importations Or
