 The precaution was more than justified in view of the riot a few hours earlier when q mob of 15,00o stormed the approaches to the Genesee county jail in an effort to impose blind vengeance.
 No sooner had word spread through Flint, despite utmost efforts at secrecy. that Dorothy's slayer had been caught. than 8 milling mol surrounded the jail and threatened to overwhelm the handful of police posted there.
 Az the crowd attained threatening proportions, endorsements filled the gaps in the lines of officers, and 8 human cordon of city, county and state police stood t1tween the crowd and the jail.

 The fact that the mob lacked 8 leader probably averted serious con. sequences. Individual groups open ed hostilities by hurling bricks which crashed through the windows of the sheriff's office.

 Lottridge told his boss on . school construction job at Flushing, Mich. of his psychic reactions. During the conversation, he claimed. Deputy Sheriff Mark Railthorpe approached and began to ask him the question which led to the murderer's arrest. Pailthorpe's version was different. He said he received telephone call from Mount Morris the village where the Schneiders live-at about the same time that Dorothy's body was lowered into the grave. Wanted Big Reward The call indicated that Sheldon Robinson. a carpenter, had heard d fellow carpenter say he knew where he could lay his hands on the slayer, but that he had no intention of. doing SO till the reward of 5000 had been raised to the level of the California Hickman reward of $1oo,00o.

WOOD IN EVERYTHING

Why do we In North America,
with one-twelfth Of the worlds pop
ulation, use one-half OF its annual
timber consumption asks Charles
Lathrop Pack in an article in the
Military Engineer. 1t is because
he citizens of the United States and
Canada enjoy the best conditions OF
living in all the world in point OF
physical comforts. 1t is because,
out of the wood of the forest, we
have been able to fashion hundreds
If things to make these conditions
what they are. Other countries of
The world, with their scantier sup
ply of forests that must be careful
" used, can not for the most part
afford many of these things. They
are luxuries to them but have be-
,ome necessities to us. But how
ong will we be able to consider
them necessities? The books on
economy tell us that, when costs be-
come out of proportion, the articles
themselves become Injuries. A
waning supply of timber and con-
,entration of it in comparatively
small sections of a great country
'aise these costs. Yet we have mil
ions of idle acres.

Have you ever stopped to think
of the large number of your every
day needs that are supplied by trop-
ical crops, with the help of CONNER
cial fertilizers? II you travel on
rubber tires, If you use sugar, cof-
fee or tea, eat many varieties OF
fruits, or use many sorts of fibre
and oils, or smoke tobacco, you are
depending on commercial fertilizers
to supply many OF your wants, and
such wants are supplied cheaper be-
cause of the use of fertilizers.
AS civilization raises the standard
of living, we must depend more and
more on the crops of other parts OF
the world to supply our varied
needs.
Some day some one will figure
out the question from the other
angle-not the high cost OF fertili-
GERS, but the high cost of going with
out.

SHORE COMMISSIONERS MAKE
RECOMMENDATIONS

Governor Richie will be asked to
include in his budget to the 1929
Legislature funds to provide COM
munity home and infirmary for the
Eastern Shore of Maryland and the
Assembly will be requested to pass
bill thus providing for the care OF
the aged and infirm INDECENT of the
area.
The decision was reached at the
semi-annual meeting of the Assoc1a-
ton of County Commissioners OF the
Eastern Shore, composed OF commits
sioners and other officials of the
nine countits,, held in the Wicomico
Hotel, Salisbury, Oct. Is. The WI
comico group was host.
Another item which it was decid-
ed to include in the legislative pro-
gram, partially formulated, was the
law governing automobile traffic vi
olations be changed so that the
State would take care OF all expen-
SEES incidental to it's enforcement.
It was cited that under the present
status fines collected accrue to the
State, whereas the county is obliged
to stand the expenses ii guilty par
ties are committed.
A motion was passed that COM
mittee wait upon Chairman Mack
| all, of the State Road Commission,
with the view of taking up the mat
ter of allowing the respective coun-
tiles to use such parts OF their allo-
Gated, State funds for road-building
purposes in the construction of low
cost roads in outlying districts where
| they are thought feasible instead OF
putting all of the monies in high
grade concrete highways and thus
extend the hardroad system very
materially.
All of the counties favored the
central home for the poor with the
exception of Caroline, which county
expressed it's facilities for taking
care of that portion of it's population
as at present functioning satisfac-
torily.
The sum needed for the purpose,
name, location and other details are
to be taken up at special meeting
lin Denton, Caroline county, on Mon
day. December g. At that time all
Eastern Shore State Senators and
Representatives will be guests of the
body.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2e, 1923

Four out OF five American farm
ers read at least one farm paper, ac-
cording to interviews with 47,62S
farmers in 35 states.
Twenty-six main questions with
numerous sub-questions were asked
each farmer. Over 900 statesmen
and field men of so cooperating
fertilizer companies id the inter-
viewing during the spring and sum-
mer.
OF the 47,62s farmers who were
interviewed, 1917 per cent stated
that they read one or more farm
papers; Ala per cent read two or
more and 20.3 per cent said they
read one.
The survey shows that the State
that has the highest percentage OF
farmers reading farm pepers is New
Hampshire. The percentage is 95.7.
Wisconsin is a close second with
95.5 per cent, Iowa is third with
94.5, Indiana fourth with 94.2 and
Illinois and Ohio are tied for fifth

FIRE LOSSES HUGE WASTE
OF RESOURCES

"The utter destruction OF more
than thirty-three million dollars of
material forest wealth last year was
la needless drain upon our re-
sources" said Major r. Y. Stuart
Chief of the Forest Service, United
States Department Of Agriculture.
Losses from forest fires repre-
sent a waste OF wealth and resources
that will affect not only the present
generation but future generations OF
Americans as well. These fire los
SEES are still many times greater than
they need be, as forest fires are
largely preventable.
The $33,OOO,000 damage to for
ests of the country last year was
the result of approximately $4,000
fires which broke out during the
year. Nearly 80 per cent OF these
fires were caused by careless smok-
ers, campers, fncendiaries, brush
burners, or other iHman agencies.
The huge losses recorded do not
take into account the damage to
watersheds, the increased erosion
and washing away of good soil. the
loss Of soil fertility, the destruction
of game and wild life, the setback
in growth of timber, or the destruc-
ton of millions OF young trees that
would have been the basis OF future
timber crops. These losses can
hardly be measured in dollars and
cents.

PNEUMONIA


Speaking of the danger to babies
and young children from neglected
colds, and to the frequent occur
renee of pneumonia as an after ef-
feet of measles and whooping cough,
DR.. J.. H. M. Knox, Jr., Chief of the
Bureau of Child Hygiene of the
State Department of Health, said:
Contrary to the old ideas of the di-
sease, pneumonia is now recognized
as an infectious disease and as much
care should be taken to prevent it
from spreading to others as in taken
in nursing cases of diphtheria or of
any of the other communicable di-
seases. Young children are partic-
ularly susceptible to it and should
never be exposed to 1t. Under
weight children and children who
are convalescing from illnesses are
more likely to be attacked by the
disease than are the children who
are in normal health.
Some idea of the prevalence of
pneumonia among babies and very
young children can be gathered by
referring to the records of sickness
and death that are kept by the State
Department of Health and by COM
pairing the deaths from pneumonia
with those from the digestive d.
seases, which are usually thought
to exceed all others in that age
group During the first eight
months of the present year, there
were 1876 deaths from pneumonia
among children under five years old
in the counties of Maryland; 1873
among babies under a year old, and
81 among children from one to four
years old. During the same period,
there were 161 deaths among babies
and young children from diarrhea
and enteritis; 129 among the babies
and 80 among children from one to
two.
Nearly all of the deaths from
diarrheal diseases occurred during
the summer, while from pneumonia
occurred during the winter months

bringing with it. the season for pneu-
monia, the need for protecting child
rem from sharp changes of tempera
ture and from the fall and winter
colds becomes more and more ap-
parent. A neglected cold often
leads to pneumonia. A child with
an acute cold or with symptoms OF
influenza accompanied by fever
should be kept in bed and should re-
main in bed several days after the
temperature becomes normal. The
family doctor should be sent for
when any suspicious symptoms are
observed.

shild's health is through regular
supervision by the family doctor
Well children under three should be
taken to the doctor two or three
times a year, oftener if the child is
not gaining satisfactorily. In that
way conditions that need attention
can be detected and cared for and
the childs power OF resistance
against disease can be strengthen
