GREETING FROM PRESIDENT
BLAIR

Hugh w. Caldwell, Secretary of
the Maryland State Teachers Assoc
citation, has received through Joy
Elmer Morgan, of the National
Education Association, the following
letter:
To the Teachers of Maryland:
Archimedes claimed that if he
could find lever long enough and
a place on which to stand he could
lift the earth. He could not find
either. That discovery was not
made until many centuries later.
With the founding of the common
school system came the realization
of practical means of lifting the
world of humanity. The lever is the
far flung system of public instruction
and the place on which to stand is
behind the teachers desk. To what
new heights Of physical health
of emotional tone, of intellectual
strength, and of moral soundness
has humanity been raised by this
great lever !
Of course, the teacher and the
school have not done it ALL The
teachers know how much the
strength of the lever and how much
of the strength of the teacher
depend upon and grow out of the
intelligent cooperation of the home
and the community.
To you, the teachers of Maryland.
the teachers of the Republic extend
fraternal greetings and good wishes
through their President.

MARYLAND MAKING A RECORD
SHORT TOMATO CROP
THIS WEAR

A record short crop of tomatoes,
the shortest since 1921, is being
harvested this season on Maryland's
eastern shore. The area set out for
canning is estimated at $4,000 acres,
say sc per cent of the 1925 area,
while yields are reported ranging
from one ton to little over tons
per acre, varying with the locality,
and averaging perhaps 2h tons.
Gamers estimates of the pack this
year range variously from 100000
cases, basis IS, to 2,225,OOO, with
the majority opinion favoring about
2,000,0 900 cases.
On August l 2 stands were for the
most part good, and some growers
said they left little to be desired.
But heavy rains set in on that date
over period lasting the better part
of two weeks. The vines were
Frustrated, the blossoms mostly
washed off, and the fruit in num-
erous fields began to rot on the
ground. Hot sunshine followed for
a while and scalding ensued. At the
close of September there is very
little fruit, green or otherwise, to be
found on the vines. Growers say
that even with favorable weather
during October the vines cannot
stage comeback" because there is
nothing to come back on the vines.
High prices are prevailing for
raw stock, ranging fro 40 to 70 cts.
per Is bushel basket, 55 to so cents
being the most usual price; and
Gamers say that tomatoes are diff
ficult to get even at those prices.
Growers can be seen working over
their picked fields in an endeayor to
gather the. last available tomato, so
as to take advantage of the high
prices offering.

WASHINGTON Mar. 24.-With
the opening of the Democratic con

Democratic leaders here made known
their strategy of concentrating

them control of the next senate.
The states selected are Illinois,
Oregon, Missouri, Oklahoma, Ken
lucky, Ohio, California, Arizona,
Massachusetts, Maryland, Colorado
aud New York.
These states are now represented
by Republican senators. The Dem
ocrats feel that they have the best
chance to win in these states.
OF "a senators up for reelection
in November, - are Republicans
and seven Democrats. II is be.
lievcd at this stage Of the pro.
cecdings that - Republicans and
the seven Democrats are virtually
sure to be retained. This leaves
