VOTING BONDS RAISES TAXES

The City of Piedmont, California,
population $500, has just issued it's
Annual Report for the year ended
June 30th, 1927.
The report states that for the
present fiscal year, the city council
reduced last years rate from $1.57
to $1.56 per 500 valuation, but was
obliged to add Is cents additional
due to obligations in the creation OF
which it had no control" The OBJ
legations referred to were additional
bonds that were voted for an athlet-
ic field and certain school depart
ment requirements for additional
teachers and janitors.
The city council in the report
states that I'm view OF the constant
iy increasing tax rate, citizens are
urged to give these reports their
earnest study"
1t would be we'll il the citizens OF
other cities would study their tax
rate when they are urged to vote on
bond issues. Ii such practice were
followed, our growing tax burden
would be halted.

CROPS WIN AT HAY
AND GRAIN SHOW

First place on Soybeans and nine
teen premiums on entries of white
and yellow corn constitute the show
ing of Maryland farmers who had ex1
libits at the International Grain and
Hay show at Chicago this year, ac-
cording to word received from F. w.
Oldenburg, specialist in agronomy
ior the University of Maryland Ex-
ension Service, who had the Mary
and entries in charge.
The showing made by the Mary
land growers was considerably bet
ter than last year when the quality
Of corn was below the standard and
10 premiums above twenty-five were
secured. Henry Rigdon, of Forest
Hill, this year led the Maryland
growers with ten-ear sample of yell
'ow dent corn which placed eighth.
Other premiums in the same class
were awarded to Charles Davis,
Street, twelfth; HIATT Harding, Cam

xins, Monrovia, twenty-first; }.
Booker Clark, Ellicott City, twenty
third; P G. Prough, Sykesville,
hirty fourth; John E. Crum, Walk

Chestertown, thirty-sixth; Howard
Mench Chestertown, thirty-seyenth;
and A. D. Short, Newark, fortieth.

wards were made to John E. Lip
pencott, Colora, nineteenth; Matt
Harding, Cambridge, twenty second;

wenty fourth; Josiah Massey, Ches-
tertown, twenty-ffth.

PINCHOT FEARS ELECTION OF
HALF.HEARTED DRY

Addressing the banquet of the
national convention of the Anti-Sa-
loon League of America in Washing1
ton, on Thursday night last, Clifford
Pinchot declared that the real dang
er to the prohibition cause is that
"some enforcement half-breed will
be elected President in 192S-some
man who talks dry enough to salts
fly the dry voter and acts wet enough
to satisfy the wet voters" The
former Governor of Pennsylvania
continued:
eff such a man is elected, it will
be because the dry people have &C
cepted less than they can get from
both great parties-far less than
they can get, if they had the courage
to insist on getting it. %
''In the coming Presidential cleo
ton the drys are facing the greatest
crisis since the Eighteenth Amend
ment was enacted. The danger if
not that any wet like AL Smith will
become President of the United
States. No acknowledged wet will
ever sit in the White House. Let US
stop worrying about what is not ever
remote contingency and look the
real danger in the face.
"Will the man you have elected
really be dry? And will he stay
dry? There is at least one promi
nent candidate who is being support
ed in the West as dry and in the
East as a wet. Is there any good
reason why we should not know pre-
cisely what we are voting for?
"Why should the drys support any
man who is not willing to put him
self squarely on the side of the Con-
stitution and pledge himself il elect
ed to take this Government out of
the hands of those who violate the
Constitution and put it and keep it
in the hands of those who respect the
Constitution"

CORN BORER APPROACH DE-
MANDS PREPAREDNESS

The approach to Maryland terri
tory of the European corn borer
makes it imperative for the people
IF the State to familiarize themsel-
YES with the pest and the methods
hat have been worked out for it's
control, according to DR.. e. N. Cory,
'ntomoligist for the University of
Maryland Extension Service who has
lust issued statement on the sub
'ect
While naturally the ravages of the
European corn borer more directly
concern the farmer than anyone else,
other classes of the population
should be interested in anything that
menaces the corn crop, which
is the backbone of the Maryland ag
riculture, 1t is pointed out.
The infestation to the north of
Maryland is single brooded and it is
likely that the invasion of Maryland
territory will come from this source
ather than from the two brooded
areas in New Jersey, says Mr.. Cory.
Injury to corn as result OF the
work. of the borer may entail total
oss where the infestation is permit
red to build up without restraint.
Damage may be done to the stalk or
,ars or both when the pests are pres
ent in large numbers. The larvae
burrow in the pith of the stalk, and
when numerous, cause the stalks to
break over and prevent the fo~ma-
lion of fully developed ears. In ad-
dition the larvae may barrow
through the ears or at the point
where they are attached to the stalk.
Both field corn and sugar corn are
injured and where the infestation is
heavy, truck crops and weeds are
quite likely to be infested.

To remove a grease stain from a
rug after dust has settled into the
grease spot and the rug has become
unsightly: If possible scrape off
part of the grass and dirt with dull
knife, and then scrub the stain with
a soft brush and warm soapsuds.
Or maybe the spot can be absorbed,
by one or more applications of full
ler's earth French chalk, or talcum
powder, or by plotting paper, and a
warm iron. A solvent, such as car
bon tetra Nhloride, gasoline, or ben
zine, may Re used. Gasoline and
benzine are very infiammable, and
must never be used in the same room
with an o',,n fire or flame of any
kind. freshly spilled liquid
should not be rubbed from carpet
or rug, because this tends to drive it
into the fabric. If possible, the liq-
uid should be covered at once with
corn meal, talcum powder, blotting
paper torn into bits, or any other alb
sorbent material which will take it
up and keep it from spreading.

The larvae winter over in the corn
stubble, pupating in spring, and the
moths emerge and begin egg laying
about the middle of June. The most
effective control measures should,
therefore, be directed toward the de-
struction of larvae in the stalks and
stubble. Low cutting, shredding
and ensiling of the fodder, followed
by the complete blowing down Of all
stubble, offer the best means of con-
trolling the pest. Some modifica-
ton of agricultural practices in the
State may become necessary but the
main dependence for control should
center about the measures outlined

FRIDAY, DECEMBER le, 1927

Despite the opening of the Seven
tieth Congress last week, and the
reading of the Presidents message,
Mr.. Coolidge's reiteration that he
did not choose to again become a
candidate for the office, seems to
have caused more widespread COM
ment than did his state paper.
Interest for the first few days was
conferred on the Senate, where VIM.
S. Ware, of Philadelphia, and Colonel
Smith, of Illinois, were denied the
right of taking the oath of office,
both having been elected to seats in
the United States Senate by the most
fragrant fraud and currupt methods
ever disclosed.
That the Senate refused by such
overwhelming votes. to allow them
to take the seats they had purchased
by the expenditure of huge slush
funds is a matter of universal salts
faction.
With $500 new bills already in
troduced and staring Congress in the
face, it is plain to be seen there IS
more work cut out for it than can
ever be accomplished by that SLOW
moving body.
Among the measures introduced
that will not be passed is one by Con-
gresham Mcleod, of Michigan, who
wants national referendum to re,
peal the prohibition amendment.

The new revenue bill will call for

instead of 236,000,O00 heretofore
estimated by members of the House

Chairman Green has formally ad-
vised the House of the estimate in a
report on the measure. The new
estimate is only S7,735,OO6 above
the maximum of 225,O00,000 reco-
mended by Secretary Mellon.
The chairman said that requests
for reductions aggregating more than
100000 had been received by
the committee and that it was lob
viously impossible" to make all OF
them.
