Scouts Leave This Morning for
Deep Creek Camp.

Approximately rs members of the
Boy Scout troop of Oakland, Rev. Paul
G. Linaweaver, scoutmaster, and
Bill" Turney, camp cook, left this
morning about ten o'clock for the Boy
Scout camp on Deep Creek Lake to
spend two weeks together.
Food was donated by Oakland mer-
chants and was gathered by members
of the Women's Auxiliary, and ac-
cording to the cook, there will be a
sufficiency for everybody.
Visitors Day will be on Wednesday
and Sunday, and this year the scout
master suggests that the families
going to the camp take their lunches
for the purpose of combining them
into one big table of eatables. 1t was
also suggested that if candy was
taken to the camp that it be turned
over to the scoutmaster for proper
distribution. Everyone must stay
healthy" Rev. Linaweaver said.

is UNLAWFUL TO SOLICIT
MARRYING COUPLES HERE
Ordinance Passed Monday Night
By Council a Drive at ''Fleec-
ers" Who Annoy Strangers

An ordinance prohibiting anyone
within the corporate limits of Oak
land from soliciting or offering aid
to any person in securing a marriage
license or in securing the services of
a minister to perform the marriage
ceremony, was passed at the last reg
ular meeting of the Mayor and Town
Council of Oakland, held in the City
Hall last Monday night, which will
tend to drive from the streets sur
rounding the Court House and from
other public places in town several
"feecers" who demand any amount
from So to S. or $40 in return for
their services in directing many who
come here from other States to the
Court House and then after they have
secured license take them to min
lister to have the marriage ceremony
performed.
Any person violating the ordinance
shall be subject to a fine of not less
than five dollars nor more than twen-
ty-fve dollars, and in default of pay
ment of the fine and costs shall be
committed to the County Jail for
period of ten days. The ordinance
became effective the day of its pas
sage-August 6.
Il believe this to be one of the best
ordinances passed in many months"
Delbert Davis, president of Council,
said yesterday "If it does nothing
else it will preserve the integrity OF
the citizens of Oakland by stopping
this practice of just few who fleece
marital couples who come here with
none other than good intentions and
are held up and practically stripped
of what cash sums they bring with
them before they really know what
has happened them"
The situation which this ordinance
seeks to correct is said to have be-
come so obnoxious that many couples
leave Oakland with barely sufficient
money on which to return home and
several instances have been noted of
the newlyweds being obliged to call
on the minister performing the cere-
mony for a loan in order that they
might be able to get out of town.
The ordinance, published in full on
another page of The Republican to-
day, provides that sit shall be unlaw-
full for any person or persons to solicit
any person upon any of the streets,
railway station grounds or premises,
bus stations or in any other public
places within the corporate limits Of
the town of Oakland, for the purpose
of offering to aid or assist, in any
manner, such person in securing a
marriage license or in securing min
lister for the purpose of performing
marriage ceremony"
Other business transacted by Coun-
Gil was the passing of the monthly
payroll and other items of public I'M
portance.

PROMINENT SPEAKERS TO
ADDRESS STATE GRANGE
Many Meeting of Organization
Will Be Open to Public-Ses-
siOns to Begin on Tuesday

Delegates from every county in
Maryland will begin their pilgrimage
toward Oakland on Monday to attend
the seth annual session of the Mary
land State Grange, which will be held
here August IA, Is and 49, Approx
imately 500 people are expected to be
present at the sessions.
The Farmers Grange, or Patrons of
Husbandry, as the name implies, is an
organization of persons interested in
farming, or in its broader sense, in
agriculture. For fifty-six years the
farmers of this State have been meet
ing monthly, quarterly and annually
in their subordinate Pomona and State
Oranges to discuss the problems of
the home and the farm. The Grange
might truthfully be said to be great
social and educational institution
where the social life of the farm may
center and where every farmers boy
and girl are given an opportunity to
express their views and are thus en-
couraged to study and develop their
problems, free from religious or polit-
zeal atmosphere. Out of these stud
les and discussions many great ac-
complishments that we now look upon
as normal and economic necessities,
such as rural free delivery, parcel
post and cooperative marketing had
their birth, two of them in Maryland
oranges.
While the Grange is a so-called Sc
cret order, all its discussions and adj
dresses by prominent men and women
are open to the public to whom a
most hearty welcome is extended.
The principal speakers scheduled
for August 18th, 3:15 P. NJ, are Dr.
H. ]. Patterson, director of the Agri-
cultural Experiment Station, and in
the evening at Mountain Lake Park
Mr.. w. B. Burruss, well known plat
form lecturer, and Hon. Louis j. Ia
Der. of Ohio, Master of the National
Grange. W. B. Burruss will deliver
his semi-humorous lecture on Fools
On Wednesday morning, August
| 18th, 1880, addresses are scheduled
by Mr.. F. W. Besley, State Forester
of Maryland. and DR.. R. A. Pearson
President of the University of Mary
| land.
The officers of the Maryland State
Grange are: Master A. G. Ensor, OF
Forest HILL Hartford county, and sec
rotary, Mrs. NJ. NJ. Hudson, of Tow
son, Baltimore county.
The Oakland committee on enter
tainment is composed of George D
Sprague, chairman; J. L. McGlone, H
P. Stuck, C. N. McIntire, D. M. Lower
Paul Friend and Mac Ridder, and the
memoirs of the Garrett County Pc
mona Grange.
This committee has arranged witt
the various hotels and boarding place:
of the town to give the visitors a uni
form rate for meals and lodging.
The Crellin and the Gilbert
Bows Bands have been secured to give
a concert or a series of concerts dur
ing the days of the convention and OF
one day of the meeting tour of in
spection of section of Garrett coun
ty has been arranged for.
The Manhattan Hotel will be head
quarters for the convention officer
and the sessions Of the grange will b.
held in the Knights of Pythias build
ing on Second street.
Business men of Oakland are urge
to decorate their places appropriated,
for the welcome of the grangers ant
to display flags, etc.

M0OREFIELD DAIRYING
CONDITIONS INSPECTED
Creamery Representative and
Republican Reporter Inspect
Plant and Visit Farmers

To get an insight of practical dairy
ing in a section of country probably
not as naturally adapted to hat bust
ness as is Garrett county, E. Stanley
Halter, field representative of the
Oakland Creamery Company, and a
staff reporter of The Republican Wis
tied Moorefeld, West Va, on Tuesday
and made an inspection of a milk re-
ceiving and shipping station there be-
sides interviewing dairymen of that
section concerning their views re-
garding the dairy business.
The milk shipping station was in
spected during the early morning
hours while patrons of the concern
were delivering their product, and it
was learned that the shipping station
received 1892 gallons of whole milk
that morning, which is an increase of
approximately 500 gallons of milk
over the same day last year and 2092
gallons over the Sth day of October,
1926, when the plant was opened in
Moorefeld
According to r. L. Grover, manager
of the plant at Mooretield, patrons are
being added constantly to their al
ready large list, and farmers in that
section who have raised beef type cat
tie for many years, are now turning
to the dairy COW and by the first of
October next he expects to receive
approximately $500 gallons of milk
daily.
Mr.. Grover stated that his company,
the Supplee-Wills-Jones company,
was paying S2.7S per one hundred lbs.
for per cent milk, which price he
stated had been constant for the past
two years, and was set and regulated
by the Inter State Milk Producers As
sociation and the Philadelphia Dairy
Council.
1t was learned that one of the pat
rons of the Moorefeld station, NJ. S.
Judy, of near Petersburg, W. Va, who
had been a beef cattle raiser for a
number of years and who recently
converted his farm into dairy prop
erty, is now supplying the shipping
station with 1900 pounds of milk each
day and expects to furnish more than
1000 pounds of milk by early fall. Mr..
Judy now has a large herd of milk
cows and is planning to increase his
herd to a hundred head by the end of
the present year.
Feeling that they were not receiv-
ing enough money for their milk, d
group of farmers of the Moorefield
section made trip into the Valley Of
Virginia, expecting to get better
price for their product, but returned
to Moorefeld more than satisfied, so
they said, with the prevailing Moore
field prices. At Broadway and Harri-
sonburg they were offered 1920 and
$2.2S per hundred pounds for milk,
which was very much less than the
Moofefleld price OF $40 per hunQfed
pounds.
According to the Oakland Cream
cry contract with the dairymen of this
county, it's base price will be ten cents
per hundred pounds above that pre-
vailing at Mooretield. With twenty
cents per hundred pounds additional
for the top score, the local dairymen
would receive S3.08 per hundred lbs
/ for four per cent milk.
