The spotted garden slug makes
trouble for the gardener by feeding on
plants at night and then hides in the
daytime, making it very difficult to
destroy the past Garden slugs, whose
work can be detected by the trail of
slime they leave behind, thrive in
dark, damp places, such as under old
decaying lumber and refuse, and
places such as these in the garden or
field should be cleaned up and sprink-
led with lime. Where practicable,
lime should be applied directly to the
area and plants on which the slugs
are feeding. Many people think the
garden slug is an insect, but it is
really moIlusk and related to the
snail.

lust few thoughts by the Editor on things

The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1929-04-26

A good-sized piece of seed potato is
preferable to small-sized piece Seed
pieces with to 3 eyes and weighing
l to 2 ounces will, if planted from Il
to IA inches apart in the row.. give
better results than smaller pieces cut
to single eyes. Cut seed pieces are
liable to rot if the ground is cold and
wet after they are planted. Under
this condition the small-sized pieces
will not furnish as much plant food
to the young plant as the larger pieces
and they are also more likely to dry
up and fail to terminate if the ground
is very dry or poorly prepared.

W. CHESAPEAKE
BEACH SHOWS
BIG GROWTH
New Streets Are Laid by
Management; Rail
Times speeded

Growth Of West Chesapeake Beach.
bordering the State Road and mid.
way between North and South
beaches, has been SO rapid this
summer that the resort arrangement
has found 1t necessary to cut a series
Of new streets.
Work on grading these streets and
laying sidewalks Is now in progress.
Eventually there will be 5000 feet
Of sidewalks. Growth of this section
is due largely to the fact that 1t is
on hill overlooking the bay and
insures cottage owners a har d
surfaced road from the city to their
doors.
Col. Lee n. Lands, new general
manager of the Chesapeake Beach
Railroad, announces that fishing now
is the best so far this season. Hard
heads. rock fish and Norfolk spots
now are being caught in large num-
bers. Grabbing continues the best in
twenty years.
Capt. John H. Hughss, new pas
senger and freight agent for the
railroad, is working on plans to make
the resort even more attractive than
it is at present for picnic parties
and dinner dances. A permanent
landscape gardener Is starting to
beautify the picnicgrovas. Th e
Casino, on a hillside overlooking
the bay. is featuring famous shore
dinners. Train schedules are to be
revised for the greater convenience
of commuters who desire to maintain
permanent residences at the resort.

RESORT METER
PROBLEM IS
SOLVED
Power Company TO Hang Their
instruments Outside for
Winter Readings

The Annapolis and Chesapeake
Bay Power Company, which serves
many Of the resorts in nearby Mary.
land with electric current. has at
last solved the problem with which
1t was confronted by It's inability
to enter many OF the resort houses
in the winter months and read the
meters.
The company has decided to in
stall outdoro meters in place Of
those now in use.
With the development Of dozens
OF resorts. both large and small in
the section Of Maryland covered by
the company's lines, the company
found itself prevented from reading
the meters Of virtually all Of the cot
tages during the winter months.
This was true despite the fact that
in many instances power was being
used although the cottages were not
in constant use.
Under the new system Of installa-
ton, the readers will not have any
difficulty in ascertaining the state
Of the meter, whether the owner Of
uOuSS 10 at HOLuS VI away ne
will simply walk up to the wall on
which the meter Is placed and make
his reading.
The ruling effects hundreds of
homes and cottages, since the An
napolis and Chesapeake Bay Com.
pany serves virtually all Of the area
now in an intensive state of resort
development. Places like Sherwood
Forest, Epping Forest, and other
resorts along the rivers Of southern
Maryland and Chesapeake Bay will
be among those to receive the new
meters.
