of peace, against those who wore

Lee Mansion, at Arlington, Va, TO
its ancient stateliness and pride.
At the instance Of the Grand

WHO GETS TAX REDUCTION i?

The bills that are being put
through Congress to lop off millions
of federal taxes will benefit the
great mass of taxpayers, including
the large taxpayer, the small tax
payer and the non-taxpayer.
Tax reduction is inevitably a great
stimulant to industry, to investment
and to the Inauguration of new
enterprises, because it means a
lowering of production costs.
Now it is a fact that cost OF pro-
duction is almost inevitably passed
on to the consumer, as much as
raw material and labor costs, only
the item of taxation is a permanent
one liable to be increased by state
and local authorities.
1t is not easily eontroverted that
the sale price of an article, which
must be the total cost of production
plus profit, and all cost OF opera
ton, is finally taxed upon the con-
sumner. And so it comes about that
all are benefited by tax reduction.

Thomas Jefferson, Virginia

A red haired, healthy looking
youth, with hazel-gray eyes, prom
inent cheek bones, and heavy chin,
was known as "inquisitive" Thomas
Jefferson, because of his delight in
asking questions and persisting
until they were answered.
1t was the same tenacity of
purpose and love of controversy that
characterized him as a child that
aided the thirty two-year old Jeffer-
son in writing the Declaration of
Independence, the one hundred and
fiftieth anniversary of the signing of
which, will be commemorated by the
Sesqui- Centennial International Elk
position, opening in Philadelphia,
on June LIST.
He was born in Virginia on April
ID, 1743, the third child of the
family. When he came of age in
1854, he was the wealthiest, one of
the best educated, and certainly the
most conspicuous young man in
Albermarle County.
He recognized and assumed the
responsibilities of his position and
within few months was elected to
two of his fathers offices-justice of
the peace and vestryman OF the
parish. He writes of himself that
mathematics, and architecture.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1926-05-07

Jefferson was proficient in natural
sciences and was versed in anatomy,
civil engineering, physics, mechan-
les, meterorology, astronomy archi-
lecture, and botany Such was his
knowledge of various subject. that
he was considered monument of
learning.
According to his biographer, Will
liam Eleroy Curtis in 1.-THE True
Thomas Jefferson" the author of
the Declaration of independence was
the father of fast mails, having ar
ranged while Secretary of State to
have mails transported at the rate of
one hundred miles a day, then con-
sidered an extremely rapid pace;
author of the coinage system, the
Mint in Philadelphia having been
established at his recommendation
and the ablest politician that this
country had produced.
His public life covered period of
siXty-one years. He was actually in
office thirty-nine years. Among other
offices which he held, he was elected
to Congress in 1881 and again in
1888. In 1884 he was sent as
minister to France. He was in
augurated Vice-President in 1896,
and was elected President in 1900
and served until March 4, 1903.

STRAWBERRY GROWERS

Strawberry growers are cautioned
by E. N. Cory, State entomologist.
to be on the look out for small red
spiders which last year did consider
able damage to strawberry beds in
the State.
The cred spider. when full grown,
is a minute mite ranging in color
to brilliant vermilion, says Mr.. Cory,
from light green or almost colorless
sucking the Juices from the leaves
These insects injure the foliage by
causing them to turn a rusty red
heavy the mites swarm over the
berries and frequently spin webs
o.ro" thN fr~it c'-etars.
Last year considerable damage
was experienced by growers in
MONTGOMERY county from the pest
Possibilities of controlling the pest
ere slight, according to Mr.. Cory
once damage the plants becomes
apparent. Control measures, there
fore. ere recommended early in the
season.
Examination of fields in the past
few DAYS has revealed the fact that
the mites have Matched, it is said
and with the advent of warm, dry
weather may be expected to multiply
rapidly. Growers who observed the
mites in their beds last season
should adopt control measures at
once. says Mr.. Cory, while all others
should examine their plants thor
oughly for the presence of the pests
on the under side of the leaves.
The most practical control meas
ure recommended is the busting of
the patch with mixture of IS. per
cent superfine sulphur and Is per
cent powdered arsenate of lead
This mixture may be obtained from
most commercial concerns handling
insecticides. Applications on small
Matches may be made with a hand
dnster and on larger fields with
a power duster One application
should be made Immediately, it is
advised another application just
before the buds open and a third
application just before the first
fruits begin to color. About seven
y five pounds of dust will be re-
CURED per acre for each application

DON'T KILL THE BIRDS

Department OF Agriculture esti-
mates give rs billion as the probable
number of birds in the world, about
40 times the number of people.
They estimate five billion birds in
the United States alone.
Birds are mankind's best friends.
Practically every bird is costless,
automatic, self-perpetuating bug
and-worm-killer, without whose aid
the country would soon swarm with
insect plaques like those in Egypt
in the times of Pharaoh.
1t is perhaps good business for the
nation that gun and ammunition
prices are so high that compare
lively few people can buy them for
bird-killing. There was time
when the household shotgun was de-
sirable, even necessary to I'LL the
iarder; now the kitchen table is
supplied best, by the absence of the
means to kill the birds that save the
crops.
