"UNITED WE Sf,AND-DIVIDED
N WE RTIGTO

UNITED We Stand-Divided We
Bust" has been announced by the
Honorable A. p. Sandles, former
Secretary of Agriculture of Ohio, as
the subject of his talk for Farmers
Day, which will be held at Tome
School, Port Deposit, on Saturday,
August 18th. Mr.. Sandles has not
only selected topic that should
prove of the utmost interest to all
farmers just at this time, but prom
ises to say something on that subject
that will be straight from the Shout
der, and with more regard for the
truth of the subject than of the feel
ings of any particular group of
people. All of which will crystalize
opinions on the subject and give all
who attend Farmers Day this year a
real opportunity to hear an interest
ing discussion of it.
Inadvertently Mr.. Sandles was
credited in some of the Farmers Day
publicity with having been connect
ed with the Ohio State University,
rather than with the State Depart
ment of Agriculture as was the case.
Mr.. Sandles reply correcting this
mistake is characteristic Of the man
himself:
eff you issue more publicity, do
not credit me to Ohio University as
such was not the case, as your card
announces. My official work was
the Secretary of Agriculture for
Ohio and State Director of Farm In
stitutes.
Never wore the handle of Prof.
to my name. Have lived in six log
houses, all close to the poor house,
and am still the owner of log
house, which stands on ground which
father and myself cleared.
eff all your speakers are present
you ought to have mighty good
program. Your farmers can make
better wages coming than they can
staying home"
Due to the fact that Mr.. Sandles
is making a real sacrifice to get to
dTLI6IS LAY at VII .DCPOoAI vi 1AAS
18th it is hoped that really large
group of Cecil County folk will turn
out to greet him that day. Mr.. San
dies is much in demand as a speaker
at Farmers gatherings all over the
country as shown by the fact in the
same week in which he will visit
Cecil County he will also speak Mon
day and Tuesday in Kentucky, Wed
nesday in Indiana, and Thursday in
Michigan, coming to us Immediately
after this latter meeting.
1t is urged that everybody boost
Farmers Day this year in order that
large audience be assured Mr..
Sandles in his visit to Cecil county.
With such able speakers to assist
him on the program as DR.. r. A.
Pierson, President of the University
of Maryland; Mrs. Evelyn Tobey, OF
Teachers College, Columbia Univer-
sity, New York, and Honorable Dan
H. Otis, Director of the Agricultural
Commission, of the American Bank
ers Association of Madison, Wiscon-
sin, real days treat is assured all
who attend Farmers day this year.

Telephone system, while the other
5000 include stations Of connecting

and service line telephones.
1t is interesting to note that out
of 19,3S9,360 telephones operated
by private companies throughout the
world, 16,935,91S are in the United
States, and that the number OF tele-
phones per 100 population in this
country is markedly greater than
that in Europe. In the United
States there are 14.S telephones per
100. population, as compared with
only 15 telephones per 100 popula-
ton in Europe, where over 50 per
cent of the telephones are under gov
eminent ownership and operation.
The only country approaching the
United States in the matter OF teie-
phone development is Canada, which
on January 4, 1926, had 1872 tele-
phones per 100 Of its inhabitants.
