So many political crimes have been
perpetrated in the name of the farm
er, that it is wonder farm conditions
are as good as they are. Right now
the country is witnessing a political
battle which is advertised as in the in
terest of the farmer.
Following are sample headlines
from the daily press: Big Fight Brews
Or Farm Relief. Corn Belt Lobby
Opens Strong Attack. Compromise
Plan Fails. East Against West and
Clash Coming.
All of this comment is inflamma-
tory. It emanates from Washington
and is for the purpose Of furthering
class legislation and advancing the in
terests of different politicians or po-
litical groups.
Secretary of the Treasury Mellon is
noted for his clear reasoning on mat
ters affecting the public interest. He
advocated lower surtaxes as means
of encouraging business and tax reve-
nues. He was attacked most viciously
for his position, but when his sugges-
tions were carried out, they more than
justified and whole nation has bene.
fitted. In discussing so-called farm
relief measures, he shows that farm.
ing differs from most industries in
that it's output largely fixes the price
wheeras in manufacturing, the price
largely controls the output.
Mr.. Mellon says that government
can be of most use to the farmer ir
working out the best methods of dis
tributing and marketing crops. He

Rainy weather has cut into the box
receipts in the Eastern Shore Circuit,
and the finances of some of the teams
are reported to be shaky. Crisfeld
was fortunate in selling Rensa; $1,000
will come in pretty handy for that
team, and a few deals like it would
not go amiss for some of the others.
Easton is kicking because the checks
she receives while on the road are so
much smaller than those she hands

AGRICULTURE

A tractor of fair size and good
quality can now be purchased for the
price of an able-bodied slave in 1850,
says r. F. Hale, who is representing
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture and the University of Mary
land Experiment Station in a study of
farm economic conditions of a half
century or more ago.
It is interesting, says Mr.. Hale, to
sssculate on the economic progress
bured by these two extremes in
b ting labor conditions on the farm.
How would the economic output of an
able-bodied slave, for instance, COM
pare with the work performed by a
modern tractor? Aside from the ethi-
cal and moral questions involved, how
many modern farmers, if they had a
choice, would prefer to invest their
money in human rather than machine
labor?
In 1850, however, there, was no
choice and the plantation owner listed
his slaves as part of his valuable as
sets. An inventory of all personal
property on the tobacco plantation of
a land owner in the southern part of
Princes Georges county listed the
following slaves according to their
age and value in 1850: Tom, age 81,
$3.50; Jim, age IA, $500; Nell, age 2S,
$3.50; and Minnie, age 8, $50.
Other interesting sidelights, show
ing the economic progress of the last
so or 100 years, are expected to re-
suit from the study of farm prices in
Maryland during earlier days. Those
who have knowledge of old farm rec
ords, account books or dairies contain
ing prices, will assist materially in the
study by notifying r. F. Hale, College

It is the most comfortable cow that
produces the most milk in summer,
states the Larrowe Institute of Animal
Economics. Instead of turning his
cows into the field to swat flies and
loaf in the shade, the dairyman will
find that he can get more milk from
them by feeding them on grain IN the
cool Of the barn during the heat of
the day and then turning them out
at night to Craze.
Following are some hints to the
dairyman on the summer care of his
cattle, as given by the Institute:
1. Cows need lots Of water. Keep it
always available in a quantity they
want.
2. Provide shade during hot wealth
er, preferably in your stable in the
heat Of the day.
8. Let your cows Craze at night
when it is cool, but be sure that they
can get water.
4.sScreen your stable if you can, to
keep out flies.
S. Spray your cows in summer with
a good fly preventative.
6. BE sure they are free from lice
and other vermin.
Z. Remember, cow must be COM
fotable and well if she is to produce
milk up to her capacity. Such care
requires little effort but it pays big
dividends

The New York base ball team, of

their position. The Athletics are pres.

Washington team has not yet given
up hope of third pennant. The Ath-
letics seem to have taken new lease
on life, are playing bang-up ball, and
with little more batting power will
become an aspirant for top honors.
Clark Griffith is reported to be
much dissatisfied with "Bucky" Har-
ris' penchant for old players. He
wants new blood in the lineup, and it
would not be surprising to see some
of the veterans released. He ought to
give Walter johnson the position of
pitcher emeritus" on the Washing
tons. Walter has been the mainstay
of poor team for many years, is an
honor to the game, and should get a
pension when his pitching arm has
lost its cunning.

Two notables in the athletic world,
Miss Wills and Bobby Jones, have re-
turned from Europe and been enthu-
siastically received by their fellow
countrymen. The former was pre-
vented from an attempt to wrest the
championship from Suzanne LING
len, the French tennis marvel, by an
operation for appendicitis. She has
about recovered, however, and will
soon resume her practice.
Bobby Jones was more successful
in his line, golf, and came back with
the British open championship tucked
under his belt. He was made hero
of by his Georgia people, and from all
accounts, he was as popular in Europe
as he is on this side.
In tennis the eliminations are on
for the Davis cup trophy ,and judging
by the form displayed by the big four
-Tilden, Johnson, Richards, and Kin
sey-the biggest tennis prize in the
world is not as safe as Americans
would like to see it. France seems to
be setting fast pace on the courts,
and many look for the French experts
to be. returned winners.

The big event in the sporting world
took place last week when Jack Du-
laney wrested the light-heavy weight
crown from the head of Paul Berlan-
bach The fight went to the limit of
fifteen rounds, at Ebbett's Field, the
home of the Brooklyn Baseball Club
and Dulaney won on points, he, ac-
cording to newspaper reports having
the advantage in IL of the Is set-tos.
On account of rain, the contest had
to be postponed for one night. This
was thought to favor the chances of
Berlenbach, but, while it may have
enabled him to take on few pounds
of flesh, it did not improve his box
ing ability, as the challenger was too
skillful.
Dulaney claimed to have broken a
thumb in the early stages of the
game, and as it was his right hand
that suffered, this may have prevent
ed Knockout by the winner. The
victor puts a lot Of pep behind his
blows land his best was not good E.
nough to send "Punch-em-Paul" to the
resin for the count.
The new champion is said to be a
wonderful boxer, and packs a punch
in either fist. He is marvel of grace
in his movements, and is fit subject
for an artists model.
This was the third meeting between
the two, each having previously re-
ceived verdict. Inasmuch as, ac-
cording to some reports, the hush that
fell over big throng to hear the ver-
dict, was an evidence of the closeness
of the contest it is quite likely the
victor and defeated will meet again.

'These, my sons are a few of the
things that l remember about Ara
pOOash, but another incident has been
told to me by our old men many
moons ago, and I believe it is true
This happened when ArapOOash was
a young man and when your people
still lived on the Arkansas river. Our
people were at war with four tribes,
the ArapahOes, the Chepennes, the
Powder People and the Wolves. but
the Crows were very powerful then
and were not afraid of all OF
these enemies. Once the scouts came
in and reported a large village of
the enemies higher up the river, and
when starting out against this camp,
it was decided to leave the women
and children behind. They were
ready to start when someone said to
the warriors, You are fools to 60
on this wal party without ArapoOash
You have not asked him about it
Go now and ask him to be your lead

sci and looked for ArapOOash, find

asked him to come with them and b.

the bird, n mans life shall be lost,
and this girls brother shall fall in

the village

reached the village. Here a fierce
battle vas fought and the enemies
were defeated with great loss, but
only n vas killed among the Crows
and that was the brother of the girl
who had killed the bird with her
whip.

"ArapOOasn, my sons, was one Of
our greatest chiefs and medicine
men. He was our great leader when
the whites first found us in this
great Grow country. Arapooash
greatly loved his people and the
wonderful land in which they had
settled.
After the old chef had passed the
pipe, he reached into the corner of
his lodge and brought forth his par
flesh medicine bag, and smoothing
down it's flap, he said:
These stories that I tell you, my
sons, are our sacred history. Just as
this medicine bag and what it con-
tains r a part of our life, just so,
are these tales our sacred and hon
Or6d beliefs. They are our history
and u religion, and they mean just
as much to you and your people as
does the white mans belief which he
gets from his books, and it is ours
to say that d beliefs mean just as
much to us.
Listen, my sons, and I will tell
you a story that was told me by the
great ArapOOash, when 1 was still a
very young warrior.
The Under Water People
"Since the very earliest days, Ara
pOOash said, the Crows have be-
lieved that all rivers and other bod
les of water contain spirits or strange
animals, who are always hungry, and
ready to kill and devOur human be-
ings. Thus it is that when the Crows
start to cross a stream, they throw
food into the water first to feed these
spirits so that they may spare them.
The Crows in the earlier days also
believed that by painting their bodies
with spots and stripes Of bright col
Ors it would brighten the spirits away
and allow them to cross the water III
safety. ArapOOash said that the
Crows had often seen these spirits
and that they were always of tho
same form as men, except that they
were fat and their legs and arms were
very large.
ArapOOash said that once on the
Tongue river one of them was found
dead. with part of it's face gone, ant
its hair was like wool. Another time
one the Rosebud river, another wa
seen swimming in the water and max
ing a great disturbance as it moved
about. One of the three Crows who
saw it raised his gun to shoot, bu
it suddenly raised itself in the waite,
and looked so horrible that the Grow
dropped his gun in fright and he anG
his companions ran from the plac.
as fast as they could. Another time
on the Little Big Horn, three Of 'then
were seen together, playing in thu
water like children, and they reall,
seemed to be spirit children. Ara
po0ash says that the Grow who sa
t on his horse and watched them il
wonder, was startled when Their
came a flash across the water, hkI
2 a flash of lightning, and this lashcl
the water into foall, beWildering tn
= Grow and so frightening his hOrs
that he reared and threw him. Whel

lspirits were all gone, but the tracl
