CECIL COUNTY CHAMBER OF
COMMERCE.

The monthly meeting of the Di-

After the routine business had
been cleared up, Mr.. Powell gave a
very instructive and interesting ex.
PLANTATION OF the new electric rate
which is effectiveas Of June 1st.
This rate is very pleasing to the
consumers because it is going to
materially reduce their .l,monthly

Mr.. Powell also stated that the
rural customers were to enjoy the
same rate as that which applies to
incorporated towns. h'- ~sr

Two of the four calls answered dur

EASTERN SHORE COMPRESSION.
Al PRIMARY FIGHT

Things are. shaping up for first
class Congressional primary fight in
Democratic, ranks on the Eastern
Shore.
Hooper S. Miles, of Salisbury, and
]. H. c. Legg, former state Senator
from Queen Anne's. county, have an
nounced their candidates. to succeed
Representative T. Alan Goldsbourgh,
of the First district, with several
other candidates preparing to enter
the primary election race next May.
In announcing his candidacy, Mr..
Legg issued the following state
ment:
Il am a candidate for Congress
from the First Congressional district
and later on shall announce the
planks in the platform upon which l
shall wage my fight.
1.-The protracted illness of our dis
tinguished Representative in Con-
gress, the Hon. T. Alan Colds
bourgh, of Caroline county, has been
a source of much concern to all his
warm friends throughout the dis
trict. 1 share with them the affec-
tion for him and the hope for his
speedy recovery.
But now that it is currently re-
ported he will devote his time to re-
gaining his health, rather than in
seeking further political preferment,
1 want to place my candidacy before
the people Of the Eastern Shore"
Others on the Shore who have
been mentioned as passible candi-
dates for Congress are S. Scott Beck,
State Senator from Kent county;
Cecil c. Squier, State Senator from
Cecil county; Orlando Harrison,
State Senator from Worchester
county; T. Mason Shehan, of Easton,
and Mr.. Harrington.
An unusual feature of the situa-
ton is that the fight for Mr.. Colds
borough's seat has started before he
has entered on the term for which
he was elected last November. Mr..
Goldsborough is regaining his health
and will spend the summer at Reho-
both Beach, Del, according to re-
ports from the Shore.

WILD ROSES

Rioting over the hedge row so green,
Pretty wild roses
Their beauty discloses;
Peeping so shyly
And perfumed so highly.
What flower can compare
With the wild rose so rare?
Not one that know of, or ever have
seen.
They swing to and fro, as zemphyrs
blow soft,
Lovely pink roses
To pluck, one supposes;
To approach | am lured,
But then feel assured
There are thorns sharp and strong
Now don't it seem wrong
To beckon Come on" with the signs
to Keep off,"

"MY MARYLAND" THE NEW SIG
MUND ROMBERG
MUSICAL PLAY

Breaking All Attendance Record At
Lyric Theatre, Philadelphia-By
The Composer And Author of
Blossom Time" And 1.-THE Stu
dent Prince" And Based On Clyde
Fitch's Barbara Fritchie." j"
An interesting theatrical event is
taking place now at the Lyric Thea
ire in Philadelphia where my
Maryland" a new Sigmund Rom
berg operetta based on Clyde Fltch's
Barbara Fritchie" is breaking all
records for attendance and length of
engagement in Philadelphia. The
work is about to start it's fifth month
at the Lyric Theatre and is another
of those big national successes with
which the name of it's producers, the
Messrs. Shubert is being constantly
associated.
Prior to the advent of my Mary
land" the length of run record for
Philadelphia was held by Blossom
Time" which presented by the
Messrs. Shubert at the same Lyric
Theatre, ran for 29 weeks. MY
Maryland" undoubtedly will break
this record. Incidentally it may be
noted that Sigmund Romberg wrote
the music for Blossom Time" and
1.-The Student Prince" just as Doro-
thy Donnelly wrote the book and
lyrics. So MY Maryland" is seek
ing the length run record for Phila-
delphia in competing against the rec
ord held by the composer and au-
thor of MY Maryland" since that
work is also theirs.
my Maryland" is based upon the
most famous and most tender of the
love dramas of the late Clyde Fitch
Barbara Fritchie." 1t tells the story
of the Southern maiden who loving
a Union officer during the Civil War
hung out the uniou flag as Stonewal
acksons army marched past her
home. The Fitch play was based
upon the Whittier poem.
The romance is appealing and
stirring and there is constant sus-
pensive dramatic interest. Must
cally my Maryland" is superlative
Sigmund Romberg has taken the
themes of many southern songs of
the period and worked them into his
score. For instance Your Land
and My Land" one of the hit ensem-
Bile numbers of my Maryland" is
of the themes of the
southern song my Maryland" and
GLORY. Glory Hallelujah."
The company is one of the best
ever assembled of acting and sing
ing artists. There is a male chorus

The cost of all government in the

11h billion dOllars-nearly one
sixth of the entire annual income of
the country.
This cost is not only enormous
but is growing. In 1925, govern
nent cost more than IL times as
much as in 1890. The increased
ost of government in these IS
years outstripped the growth OF pop
ulation by more than seven to one
In 1925, we spent for government
nearly half the value of our rail
roads.
In the five years ending with 1925
the cost of running the federal gov
eminent was decreased by one-third.
But at the same time the cost of run
aing the state and local governments
more than doubled.
The greatest single item in the
cost of government is the public pay
roll. So many people are now sup
ported by the government that for
very 10 people employed in other

person supported by the govern
During the past five years our
state and local governments have

this rate was increased to $780,

INCREASING INTEREST IN NEW
FORESTS

The national forestry department
claims good progress is being made
in providing for production of future
crops of timber for the lumber, pa
per and pulp industries, but its cam
paign is being Kindred by unstable
forest Policies in many timbered
states. Many counties in the tim
bered states that desire to have tax
reverted lands put on the assessors
rolls, are also partly responsible.
New York and Pennsylvania lead
all Eastern states with over 3,0OO,-
900 acres under reforestation, and
are adding to the areas devoted to
growing new timber crops.
Several Western states are acquir-
ing units of cumberland in exchange
for scattered school lands in national
forests, and growing solid blocks OF
new timber, covering thousands OF
square miles.
In all the states there is increas-
ing interest in renewing forest
growth by federal, state and private
activities. and promotion of public
measures, sound policies and remov-
al of undue obstacles and handicaps.
Equitable taxation of timberland,
which taxes timber as crop when
harvested instead of loading it with
an annual tax which in the aggre-
gate confiscates the value of the
trees, is being adopted in many
states, and is an Indispensable part
of any permanent reforestation
policy.

HOG CHOLERA DURING MAY

The disease was reported to exist
on Is premises in Maryland against
Z a year ago, and an year average
Of II for the same period. Thirteen
were classed as primary or new ont
freaks, and as secondary. Four
were of the backyard type, while
II occurred on farms where hogs
are bred and raised,
Carroll County had 4 outbreaks !:
Calvert, Charles, Queen Anne aus
st. Mary's 2 each, Kent, Talbot ard
Worcester l each.
OF the primary outbreaks 8 were
apparently due to infected pork IN
garbage, table scraps, kitchen swil!,
etc. Three were due to the pur-
chase OF infected hogs. One was
apparently due to failure to clean
the premises after the last out
break, while in the other case, the
owner could not or would not give
any information on which to base
the source of infection. or the two
secondary outbreaks was due to
permitting hogs to run at large,
while the other was apparently the
result of the failure to properly bury
the carcasses of hogs that had died
of the disease.

The corn earworm is one of the
most destructive insect enemies OF
corn in the United States. The pest
occurs throughout the entire ceun-
try wherever corn is grown. Green
sweet corn suffers the greatest dam
Hge. but 1t has been estimated that
2 per cent OF field corn is annually
destroyed by the earworm In the
South the damage Is much heavier.
IN Vir"i"ia the time OF planting, or
rather the time of silking, has been
fo"nd to be the most important fac
tor affecting earworm damage.
Where tie crop OF field corn can be
t"1""ht into silk at the period when
moths are least abundant. the inres-
tation and damage are greatly re-
duced. Serious injury from the
nest is not so likely to occur if the
husk Is long and closes tightly
around the silks.
