chanels in Hotels.

Many years ago, group OF com
mercial travellers called "The Gideons
organized a movement for placing
copies Of the Scriptures in the guest
rooms of hotels. 1t was from the start
a very real missionary enterprise, and
has been productive of excellent re-
suits.
One of New York's leading hotel
men, the owner of number of big es-
Establishments, announced few days
ago his purpose of going even a step
further. Observation during many
years of experience has impressed him
with the fact that strangers who put
up at hotels in our big cities are at a
disadvantage as far as church-going is
concerned. He has, therefore, decided
to erect, in each of his large establish
ments, chapel as a place where his
guests may worship. IF the patron
will not 60 to church" he urges. 1--WE
shall bring the church to him."

SWEETS FOR THE CHILDREN
Moderate Allowances Of Sugar, Candy
and Ice Cream That Keeps
Them Healthy.

The following may be regarded as
moderate allowance of sugar or candy
for a healthy child of nine or ten
years: OF sugar on cereals, one even
teaspoonful at breakfast or supper and
not more than this amount on fresh or
stewed fruit; of candy, one piece with
the midday meal; of ice cream or fruit
ices, one good tablespoonful once a
week, possibly twice week In sum-
mer; of ice cream sodas, not more than
one a week
Besides these things child will get
In his other food, such as gingerbread
cookies and plaln cake, and In his Gus
tard and buildings an additional
amount Of sugar, so that his total daily
allowance will probably be equal to
two tablespoonfuls Of sugar. So long
as this is not exceeded 1t Is not likely
than any bad effect will follow. But
when child is allowed to help himself
the constant tendency is that the
amount is gradually increased to two
or three times the quantities specified,
and even then the child is no better
satisfied-of less SO. He has ac-
auired the sweet habit and food does
not taste sweet unless these larger
amounts are constantly added.-Dr. L.
Emmett Holt in the Delineator.

MARYLAND HAS BUMPER CROPS

~ Results of this years farming in
Maryland are far enough advanced
to justify the eestimates that 1928
will be one-of the great years in the
farming industry in Maryland
There is scarcely a crop that has not
made better returns than the aver
age for the five years, 1921, and
generally, both crops and prices are
better than 1922.
Wheat averaged 1876 bushels pei
acre this year.
Corn brought a good crop, the
yield being 23,S00,000 bushels.
Oats show larger yield than in
1922.
Barley, rye and buckwheat ali
show a better yield by acreage an6
better price.
Hay will bring the farmer $12.40 q
ton instead of SLOTS, last xear's
price.
About 2,oOO,o 900 more pounds O.
tobacco were raised this year thar

CHRISTMAS SEALS

The Maryland Tuberculosis Asso-
citation and its branch organizations
in the counties, opened their 10th
annual sale of tuberculosis Christ
mas Seals on November 10Th.
Thanksgiving Day, proceeds of which
will be used to eradicate Tubercu-
losis
Seventy-five percent of the money
will remain the in county, to be
spent for the public health work, and
will be supplemented by funds and
services from the State Association
fully equivalent to the other twenty
five percent. The State Association
through it's local branches will con-
duct tuberculosis clinics under the
direction of Mr.. John Nicklas. Mr..
Nicklas has been connected with the
U. S. Veterans Rurean, and has "a
splendid record as tuberculosis
expert.
The Association also assists in
maintaining public health nurses,
conducts the Modern Health Crusade
in our schools, etc., and co-operates
with public and private health
agencies and civic or welfare or
ganizations.
Our State Department of Health
reported 1894 deaths from Tuber-
culosis in Maryland for the year
1918. In 1922 there were 991
fewer deaths.
Do you realize that right here in
Maryland we have 27,487 active
cases of this terrible disease. 1t is
within your power to further reduce
this death rate, and keep up the
splendid progress which has been re-
Gently made.
The Maryland tuberculosis Asso-
citation asks your support in the
work of preventing tuberculosis
through its annual Christmas Seal
Sale.
Seals sell for cent each, buy, buy,
buy until it hurts, and help save
human lives.

CANNED MUSIC m YUcATAN
Demand for American Talking Ma
chimes Is Brisk, Says Our Consul
at Progreso.

The talking machine is as popular
in Yucatan as In the United States,
according to a report ito the Depart
ment of Commerce from o. G. Marsh,
United States consul at Progreso.
Small, cheap instruments cheer the In
dian hut, ordinary machines are found
In middle-class homes. and the most
elaborate cabinet styles grace the man
sions of the wealthy. Perhaps no
other modern invention has done more
to enliven these homes. An enterpris-
ing local dealer has popularized and
capitalized this idea in phrase: "How
happy is the home that has Its phono-
graph"
The American machine has monopo-
liked the market. Old styles with
horn have had an extensive sale, but
cabinet designs are preferred by most
customers. A few portable instru-
ments have been sold.
Practically all orders have been
placed by importers direct with fac
tories on factory-price quotations, rail-
way and steamship freight and ma
rine insurance being attended to by
American agents of importers or by
freight forwarders at American ports
The largest importer, and the one who
has done large part Of the local bust
ness, has purchased on open credit
Other firms hay been, and will have
to be dealt with in accordance with
their financial standing and credit
rating. The most recent shipment, by
a manufacturer just entering the Yuca-
I tan market, was on a documents
against payment basis.
Almost all records sold in Yucatan
are of well-known American makes.
The most popular have been American
fox trots and Latin-American songs
and dance music. The principal inn
porters have dealt with manufacturers
of records on the same basis as with
makers of monographs, but consid-
cradle number of records enter In a
manner difficult to trace and are sold
at varying prices by small dealers.

ASSEMBLY TO ACT ON CHANGI,
IN MARRIAGE LAW

A new marriage law for Maryland
to supplant the one now in effect is
being prepared by the Clerk of tie
Court of Common Pleas, in BATH
more, to be submitted to the Legisla-
ture in January. The principal re-
forms proposed are:
/ That clergymen be licensed to
perform wedding ceremonies and
Q That both the man and woman
appear in applying for license to
wed.
The law would bar any except rest
dent and registered ministers from
performing the ceremony. Visiting
clergymen might, however, take out
certificate by paying the nominal
fee of SO cents.

PLAN 70 HARNESS VEsUVIUs
italy Would Direct Flow Of Lava and
Utilize Heat Of the Big
Volcano.

In the future great volcanoes can
throw out molten fire and lava and at
tract no more attention than the pass
ing of motor car, il plans now being
considered by scientists of Italy are
carried out
After the gigantic Accomplishments
of the engineers in the World war such
scheme does not sound impossible
and plans are being seriously consid-
cred to tunnel mountains known to be
dangerous in such manner that a
sudden volcanic activity will only re-
suit in the gas and lava being carried
away from settled sections and val
liable property.
Especially are such plans being
worked out for Itna and Vesuvius,
the two most destructive volcanoes.
And with the plan goes another pro-
viding for Harvesting the heat for in
dustrial purposes.
Premier Mussolini has been inyesti-
eating the plan and now. 1t is said. no
obstacle remains except the expense
1t is hoped that some way may be
found whereby Italy will be relieved
from dependence upon the outside
world for fuel and the power chat fuel
produces.
If experimental boring is tried 1t
viii probably be on Etna, because that
volcano. being On an island, can do
less damage than versuvius IL stirred
to unusual activity by mans efforts.
Cutting tunnels through the noun
tainside would be simple In its earlier
stages, and would become complicated
only when the heat, on approach to
the eternal fires. became uncomfortable
to the workers. Explosives might do
the rest.

had the perfect record Of no losses

The other SOW farrowed eight pigs and
raised seven Of them, which the owner
either sold or butchered. He bred this
SOW second time TO purebred Duroc
boar. The following statement in Mr.
Underwood's words shows his opinion
Of the value Of good breeding:
1.-THE pigs from the second litter fed
out better and were heavier, were all
red and Of good heavy bone, and worth
at least s. each more than the pigs
from the first litter from the grade
boar. The breeding fee was IS for
the purebred"
This farmer later sold three giltf
and seven small pigs, all sired by the
purebred Duroc, to a farmer at ST.
Stephen, s. c., for $3.50, which is six
times as much as he paid originally
for double the number Of hogs. In
other words, $26 worth of scrub hogs
bred to a purebred boar resulted In
a $50 return from merely a part Of
the herd.

SELF-FEEDER is IMPORTANT
Device Built BY Maine Farm Bureau
Agent Led Others to Follow
Suit at Big Profit.

One self-feeder, built by a Maine
farm bureau agent at q demonstra.
ton, resulted In seven other farmers
In the same town building them. Be-
fore the year was over, 70-odd farm
ers In the county were using them
and making Z gain Of IS to $40 more
pront per pig. This II the experience
Of many sections.
Where the self-feeder L. not a sue
cess, tho trouble generally comes from
not using suitable foods Tho
fault Is therefore not with the feeder,
but with the men. The ideal practice
to follow when using self-feeders IL
to place the hogs on such pasturage
as clover, oats and peas, oats and
rape and rape alone This pasturags
should be where the pigs can have
access to frosh water, such Is
brook, spring or tho overflow from
the water system In the barn. With
these two furnished, pasturage and
water, the self-feeder will be a great
labor-saver and highly profitable.
