Many Pocomoke City Folks Have
Found How to Make Work
Easier.

What is so hard as days work
with an aching back?
Or sharp stabs of pain at every
sudden twist or turn?
There is no peace from that dull
ache.
No rest from the soreness, lame

Many folks have found relief
through Doan's Pills. They are q
stimulant diuretic to the kidneys.
Pocomoke City people commend
Doan's.

Look out for the short-tailed field
mice this year, is the admonition of
the Biological Survey, United States
Department of Agriculture. Injury
to trees and other plant life by these
mice occurs at more or less regular
intervals or cycless. Following a
year of maximum abundance there is
apt to be year of comparative scar
city, after which several years are
usually resquired to restore the mice
to their usual abundance. These mice
are among the most prolific of all
mammals and during a single excep-
tionally favorable season they may
increase as if by magic to menacing
proportions, and this tends to shorten
the interval between periods of great
abundance and destructiveness. Large
numbers Of mice in locality not only
set up conditions favorable for cpl
zootic diseases among them, but also
attract unusual numbers of their nat
ura enemies, and these conditions &C
count for the equally sudden disap-
pearance of the mice.
During the last two seasons there
has been relatively little field-mouse
injury, so that considerable damage
may be expected within the next sea-
son or two. That some injury at least
is due for the present winter is GER
tain, according to the rodent-control
workers of the Biological Survey, who
during November found number of
large apple trees as we'll as small
ones girdled by field mice. These OBJ
servers have found the mice to be a
bundant in certain sections this year
while relatively scarce n others. They
advise that every orchardist examine
his trees and the vicinity of his o.
chard at this time, and where signs
of mice are present take action to pre-
WIT injury and serious future losses.

Grain infested with insects may
heat, due to their presence, until it
becomes favorable to the breeding
and development of large numbers OF
destructive weevils and beetles of
various species. If the Temperatures
of the grain continues to rise, it
reaches point where spoilage oc-
ours. Insects have been known to raise
the temperature of grain to SS de-
grees F. and 95 degrees +. when the
outside or room temperature was be-
low so degrees F. 1t is highly neces-
sary, therefore, in warehouses where
large quantities of grain are stored
to keep the temperature of the grain
low and particularly to destroy any
insects which may be present.
A study of the effect of fumigation
upon heating grain has been made by
the Bureau of Entomology of the U.
S. Department of Agriculture. This
has demonstrated that when heating is
a result of insect infestation the in
sects can be killed and the temper
allure of the grain reduced to normal
by Immigration with hydrocyanic-acid
gas or carbon disulphide. Even grain
and beans heating to 103 F. have been
reduced to normal temperatures by
Immigration. Such reduction in tenn
perature prevents the continued de-
struction of grain in cold weather,
when owners not understanding the
ability of insects to raise grain tenn
peratures believe they are enjoying
protection due to insect inactivity re-
sulting from temperatures of so de-
grees F. or lower.

A Franklin touring car 'on Monday
afternoon was burned up near the
residence of John Hook, Washington
road, Carroll county. J. d. Brady, a
shoe salesman from Baltimore, who
occupied the car, narrowly escaped
death from the flames which COM
pletely ruined the machine.
Mr.. Brady who was travelling from
Frederick to Westminster got off the
main road. When he had travelled as
far as the Hook home he got in rut
and the car turned over pinning him
beneath it. Mrs. Hook was near the
window saw the smoke and hearing
the man call for help ran to his rescue
with her husband and son. They
lifted the car off the ground far e.
nough to let Mr.. Brady crawl out be-
fore the car was all ablaze. He went
on to Westminster and after transact
ing business took the train for Balti-
more. He only got a few minor
scratches on his face and hands.

The sweet corn pack of Maryland
for 1924 is 100000 cases under that
CT last year, according to the Sears
kOebuck Agricultural Foundation. The
total pack this year is 1,707,0 cases
as compard to 2,256,0O0 cases the
year before, while the 1922 pack was
somewhat less than two million cases
the Foundation states.
The sweet corn pack in this State
finds its counterpart in the national
pack for the year. Total production
in 1924 was over twelve million cases
as compared with the fourteen million
cases of the year before. This years
production, however, is about a mil
lion cases above the pack of 1922. The
violent fuctuation from year to year
has been characteristic of the corn
industry, so that the 100000 casese
which were produced in 1920 dropped
the very next year to scarcely half
that figure. Although ID million cases
W ere produced as far back as 1911,
two years later found that production
cut into two, with the result that
steady prices would be impossible but
for common practice of carrying
heavy stocks over from one season to
the next.
The fuctuation in production is not
only shown in the country as a whole
but individual states fuctuate sharply
in opposite directions the same year,
the figures compiled by the Founda-
ton show. Ohio canned only about
half as much corn this year as last,
while Maine increased her output a
bout one-third. Maine, New York
and Minnesota were the only states
tc show material increases this year,
Iowa, Illinois and Maryland dropping
eff 20 to Is per cent each while still
dividing honors fairly evenly for lead
ing place.

Eastern Shore sun gazers will have
an opportunity this month for the
first time in many years to observe a
total cl,pse of the sun. The phe-

At a meeting of the State Highway
Commission held at it's office in Rich
mond, Va, last month, the tentative
ALLEGATION of $125,OOO.OO to build, a
section of concrete highway north
from Eastville was approved by the
Commission. The above named a.
mount had been tentatively allocated
by Commissioner Shirley but was sub
ject to final ratification or rejection
by vote of the State Highway Com
mission.
1t was rumored at one time that an
effort would be made to get the High
way Commission to reverse the action
of Commissioner Shirley and to have
the $125, 100000 allocated to building a
section of highway in Accomack coun-
ty, but it seems the movement fell
through at the last minute as the
delegation supposed to appear before
the commission failed to put in it's ap-
rearance.
