Important Announcement on Packing
And Baltimore Inspection Of Tobacco.

Over two hundred and fifty (250)
hogsheads of tobacco have been re-
turned by the French Government, one
OF our largest and best buyers Of
Maryland tobacco, for reclamation on
your State Tobacco Warehouse. I'VE
are glad to announce that very little
Of this tobacco was bought through
your Association.) We have consist
emily advocated that the permanent
success o. the Maryland tobacco in
dustry must, to a large extent, be
gained through uniform packing, to
gain confidence and better permanent
prices for our product.
The above condition has forced the
State Tobacco Warehouse, for its
own protection, TO see that every hogs
head low received is properly repre-
scented in the sample, and this Is being
done.
We are warning all of our members
that to secure good price for medium
and better grades OF tobacco, they can
not be packed with inferior grades, as
every grade in the hogshead is-now
represented in the sample, and you
certainly will not get the best price for
your better grades if they are packed
with inferior grades. We feel the
State Tobacco Wai ehouse is handling
this to the best advantage OF all con-
cerned, and when your tobacco Is
packed uniformly, you will get good
results and good samples, and equally
bad results when it is not. This con-
dition is now producing good results,
as the buyers are buying with more
confidence and the prices are advanc-
ing.
Pack your tobacco uniformly and
you will help the tobacco industry and
help yourself very materially, but the
mixing of many grades and the care
less handling and pncking of your to-
bacco will result, through all sales
agencies on this market, with disap-
pointing prices. This is important
information to our members, and it
should not be considered lightly.
Yours very truly,

Agricultural Notes.

On Saturday, July 2sth, the County
Agent and Home Demonstration Agent
will conduct a sightseeing trip thru

Plants now being developed. We have
felt for some time that the people of the
county do not know what is going on
in the county. We will all meet at La
Plata, and every one interested in
poultry is urged to take the trip, alto
O'Clock. Each one will bring luncn
and we will spend the day looking at
some interesting plants. Do your
chickens paw you profit or do you
pay 70 keep them The plants we will
visit are profitable plants. Come and
see how others do.

Feed the chickens and pigs some of
the wheat and corn with the milk after
you haye taken of the cream and good
meat will be the result at the lowest
cost. Sell your butter fat at Waldorf
and keep your milk at home will be
profitable.
Feed your COWS some crushed corn
and wheat and you viii supplement
your pastures in a profitable way. 1t
Is easier TO keep up the flow Of milk
than ii is to helm It up after it once

APPLES LEFT ON TREES IN
SOUTH PART OF STATE

Byron Hunter of this city, special
ist in farm management, with the
United States department of agricul-
ture, arrived at home Saturday from
the Twin Falls district, where he had
been securing data on the cost OF pro-
duction in connection with investiga-
tional work carried on by the depart
ment. He states that in some ways
there has been marked improve
ment in the south part of the state
in the past year, but that overpro-
duction is keeping the farmers from
receiving what they should in some
lines. Especially is this true with
regard to apples, more than half the
bountiful apple crop being left on the
trees because Of the inability to Sc
cure a profitable market for the fruit.
There is a large bean crop. both
in acreage and yield, this year and
the farmers are receiving profit
able price for this product. There
has been a bountiful crop Of almost
everything grown in the southern
part of the state this season.

Idaho's substantial demonstration of
gridiron superiority at Boise before
1000 fans was well worth the trip
without consideration of the plea

the visit to Boise.
The Friendship Special was run
on scheduled time throughout max

convenience doubly certain.
Diner Service Excellent
P. ]. Nixdorff of Spokane, travelling
passenger agent of the Union Paci-
fic, was in charge of the train. Pull
man car porter went out of their way
to give the best of service and the
dining car service, with James Casey,
Jr., in charge as steward, was the
best of any previous special train.
Passengers were not required to wait
in line to eat due to speedy service
and the dining car menu was even
above the usual excellent Union Pa
cific standard.
Good use of the full length buffet
and observation car was made Hot
water was always obtainable in the
Pullman cars and the heat of the
standard sleepers was well regulated
One hundred twenty-five passen-
gers were carried to Boise where the

"A troubled world called to her and

by America today
"I once, in the midst of battle in
the dark woods of the Argonne, saw
a humble doughboy rise and charge
at the enemy" Mr. Leeper said, in
speaking of the flag. II saw him
fling his arms away, and stumble
down and die, and ere he fell, l know
that he saw the vision of his flag, and
sensed everything humble, beautiful
and glorious for which it stands.
