WINTER FLOWING is BEST IN
MARYLAND

For most Maryland soils winter
blowing will give better results than
all plowing unless provision is made
protect the soil with some kind
Il cover crop, it is asserted by 0. g.
truce, professor of soils at the Uni
rersity of Maryland.
Flowing in the fall may have the
advantage of improving the physical
conditions of the soil and in some
Eases may make it possible to get
he seed bed prepared somewhat
EARLIER in the spring. It may like
wise result in a. more even distribu.
ion of labor, it is said. On the
,ther hand the injurious effects o.
erosion and the teaching away OF
-aluable fertility are extremely det,
;imental to many Maryland soils.
The, great advantage of blowing
n December and January, it IL
pointed ont, is the fact that the SOIL
eft without cover crop for short
II period of time than when fall
lowing is pfactised. The shorter
he length of time that a soil is left
lncropped the less it will suffer
from surface run off and consequent
depletion of fertility. Under most
conditions it is advisable to protect
he soil with cover crop that can
be turned under in the spring.
Sod lands may be plowed in the
fall or in the early winter with COM
,aratively little damage unless the
slopes are steep. Even then, better
sesults are obtained if blowing is de
'ayed until well into the winter
December and January are the best
winter months for blowing in sec
ions of. the State where winter
blowing is at all possible. Ordinar,
ly. the ground should be left rough
and narrowed in the spring before
sowing the crop.

READY FOR EMERGENCIES

Every housewife knows the i'm
loortance Of having first-aid remedies
for burns always ready in the kitch-
en-. Burns that are healed quickly
and without leaving scars, would
have proved serious If she had had
to go to the drugstore for remedy
latter she burned herself.
President Coolidge told his break
fast guests Saturday morning, Nov
amber "a, that he is trying to clear
away the obstacles to American en-
TRY into the World Court. He
wants to have some way Of settling
disputes between nations ready in
advance. Like the first-aid for
burns, means Of settling interna-
tional disputes peacefully must be
ready in advance, so that they can
be applied promptly. II the method
lDf settlement is ready, disputes are
usually settled easily and quickly;
| IL peaceful method has to be hunt
cd for after a quarrel begins, the de-
say permits bad-feeling to develor
on both sides, and sometimes war
cannot be avoided.
President -Coolidge's renewed eft
Tort to complete American entrance
into the World Court makes the
General Pact for the Remuneration
Of War, negotiated by Secretary KEEL
logg last spring, even more import
ant for the future peace of the
world than it seemed to be at first
BY this anti-war treaty, the ma
lions that have signed 1t, renounce
war as an instrument of national
policy, and pledge themselves to use
only peaceful means Of settling dis
putes hencef6rth. The treaty does
not provide the peaceful means, and
this country, among others, has not
been adequately supplied with ways
of settling disputes We have had
to run to the drugstore after We
were burned, with the risk Of max
ling the burn worse.
The anti-war treaty opens the
gate to permanent peace. The
haste with which the nations have
signed it shows how strong is the
public opinion which desires to be
free of the danger OF war in all
countries. But the treaty does not
come into effect until it has been
ratified by all the fifteen Original
signers. England, France, Ger
many, Italy, Japan, Belgium, Czech
oslovakia, Austria, Canada, India
ireland, New Zealand and South
Africa, are waiting for the. United
States to take the lead and set the
example.
Prompt and enthusiastic ratifica-
ton Of the treaty by this country at
this session of Congress would be
very helpful to the cause of interna-
tional peace. Besides giving the
Administration that negotiated the
pact the satisfaction of seeing it rat
flied before retiring from the
office on March 4, it would encour-
age other nations to follow our ex-
ample in ratifying the pact as, they
have in signing it.
With all nations renouncing war
Ind pledging themselves to use only
peaceful means of settling their dis
putes, and with this country, by
joining the World Court, strength
sning the methods Of peaceful settle
ment, we may indeed feel that pro-.
gress is being made toward the out
lawry of war.

CHRISTMAS SHIPPING

Millions of tiny Ships gay little
pictured ships-have started on
their journeys Christmasward, this
week. Each is freighted with mes
sages of friendliness, of health and
of hope. They are the Tuberculosis
Christmas Seals.
"As Marylanders, there are many
reasons for our interest in the fight
against tuberculosis, DR.. r. H.
Riley, Director of the State Depart
ment Of Health, said in urging every
man, woman and child in the State
to invest generously in the little
Christmas seals. First among
them is the obligation that rests
upon every one Of US to fight on and
on to victorious finish against this
dragon Of i'll health and disease that
takes such an appalling toll Of our
people each year. tuberculosis has
lost the place of supremacy it held
for so long, as the leading cause Of
death in Maryland. It has gone
down to third place, with heart di-
sease and chronic Bright's disease,
taking first and second places, re-
spectively.
"But you cannot realize the ex-
tent Of the fight we have to wage
until you visualize the actual facts.
Here they are. Out Of total Of
21,114 deaths in Maryland last year
the year ending December 81,
1s27-tuberculosis was responsible
for 1926 798 in the counties and
S22 in Baltimore city. Multiply
that by ten and you will have an es-
innate Of the number Of those who.
are i'll with the disease 200 In
the State; 1880 in the counties and
1920 in Baltimore City. Appalling
as these are, if you will look back at
the figures for five, ten, fifteen years
ago, you will see that slowly but
surely, the fight is being won. In
1917, for instance, out Of total OF
1888 deaths in Maryland from all
causes .2,772 were caused by tuber-
culosis. Both totals. $40 in 1927
and 2,772 in 1917, represent the
deaths from all forms Of tubercu-
losisn not simply tuberculosis OF the
lungs.
"It, is not often that anybody who
cares to do SO can acquire a whole
fleet of his own and can send it out
laden with as worth while a cargo
as the little Christmas seals carry
The argosy that goes forth this year
brings back to each State our own
among thenn-means for advancing
the fght against tuberculosis.
Some of it will go toward the sup
port Of. the activities under the d.
rection Of the Maryland tuberculosis
Association, including the Proven.
forum at Claiborne; some of it for
the maintenance of the clinics that
are held in the counties each month;
some of it to extend the services OF
the public health nurses and some of
it to bring about better under
standing of the possibilities Of ra
tional living. wholesome recreation,
play as well as work, wholesome
food and plenty Of sleep. as means Of
Strengthening the powers of resis-
lance against disease.
The Christmas seals give every
body chance to help. Get your
supply early

Sebastian, Fla, Feb. 27.-R--
The Ford flivver plane which dis
appeared into the Atlantic ocean
Saturday night off Melbourne was
washed ashore near here this morn
ing. No trace was found Of the
body Of Harry Brooks, who was
plotting the plane when it disap-
peared.
The plane was badly damaged.
One wing had been entirely torn off
by the waves, and the fabric Of the
other wing was stripped.
The propeller was broken and the
fuselage wrecked.
Examination Of the strap by which
Brooks was said to have fastened
himself into the plane when he left
Titusville Saturday offered no clue

before the crash. The battered con-

Almost total demolition Of the
body of the plane obliterated any

While search for Brooks body
