7 Asst Sunday we printed a story
from our correspondent In West
Virginia about the agreement
IL reached by Maryland and West
Virginia in regard to fishing In
the Potomac River between those
States. According to z. Lee LeCompte,
State game warden of Maryland. our
account of the new fishing regulations
adopted at a recent conference held at
Deep Greek Lake in Garrett County.
Nd, was incorrect. LeCompte IN his
letter says:
"The agreement reached between Mr..
Cornwell and myself was to the enect
that residents over the age OF ID
years, Of Maryland and other States.
desiring to fish in the waters OF
the Potomac River shall flrSt procure.
In case of a resident Of Maryland. .
resident anglers license. and, II resi-
dent of MARYLAND or any other State
desiring to stand on the banks Of the
south side Of the Potomac River. said
banks being owned by the State OF
west Virginia they shall procure an
anglers license Of Maryland and West
Virginia.
I'm case the persons are fishing
from the banks Of West Virginia in
the Potomac River, they must procure
a non resident anglers license OF Mary
land and a resident anglers license OF
west Virginia and, If q Marylander or
resident of other States desiring to
stand on the banks Of West Virginia
and fish in the Potomac River. then
they must procure nonresident
anglers license for West Virginia. This
is due to the fact that while using
the banks Of West Virginia for their
fishing grounds Nthey are on foreign
soil even though they are using Mary
land waters for the purpose OF fishing
therein"
The names Of the west Virginia
game protectors bordering the Potomac
River as furnished by Mr.. LeCompte
are:
Alto 3. Glenn, Terra Alta, w. Va.

Wachapreague comes the report that
there is practically no fishing on the
inside. but that big founders weighing
as much as 10 pounds are very numer-
Gus and that a great many porsies
are also being caught.

Gilliams and Howard Brooks nfotored
down 70 Herring Bay last THURSDAY
and landed about so Ash about IS Of
whic y were large enough to bring home.
Theyp reported that the water was
rough. swell running. making it
rather uncomfortable for fishing. They
used bloodworms. smelt and cut spots
for bait. Several good size trout were
caught, weighing about 3 pounds and
several large trout were lost after be-
ing brought to the surface Of the
water.
Corn who landed the majority Of the
trout said that the big hsh did not
commence to bite until around 8
O'Clock in the evening He also said
that for the first time this season q
large number Of sea gulls were seen.
One or two taylors or blues we're also
landed on this outing.
Their boatnan, Capt. Harry Mani

and the great number Of alewives in
the bay. hoped for better fishing in
the very near future.
An unusual sight was witnessed In
the Patuxent River of Point Patience
last Thursday when a school Of drum
Immediately went after them with hi :
crew Of eight men. The fish walloweo
and played on the top Of the water. It
was a sight never before seen In thr.
Patuxent River. A few drum ara
caught annually In the nets and +
anglers in the bay each year, but orG
few have made their way to
waters Of the Patuxent.
When the fish were sighted Capt.
Davis got busy with his nets and after
working "a hours and breaking two
tons of these fish, weighing from IS to
IS pounds. The fish were shipped to
Baltimore, Washington and Philadel-
phia markets.
Prof. r. v. Truitt Of the University
OF Maryland. In charge Of the Marine
Chesapeake Biological Laboratory at
soiomons, says drum fish do consider
able damage to oyster beds and to
prove his statement he and q number
Of his students dissected some Of the
big fish and found as many as "a oys-
ters In their stomachs The mouth Of
these fish are equipped with crusher-
like teeth with which they crunch the
oyster shells. The noise Of these fish
at work on an oyster bed can be heard
by persons In q boat many feet above
them. The noise Is termed drumming,
hence the name Of the fish.
Capt. Davis says his nets were dam
aged to the extent Of $3.50 by the big
FISH.

PROMPT VACCINATION CHECKS
HOG CHOLERA

That vaccination, when perform
ed in time, is a reliable means for
checking the inroads of hog cholera
is shown in the annual report OF DR..
l. X. Atherton, inspector in charge
of hog cholera work in the State Of
Maryland.
According to DR.. Atherton, ninety
per cent of all hogs treated when in
an apparently healthy condition,
were saved from the disease while in
many cases an equivalent percentage
of losses occurred among hogs treat
ed after they had contracted the dis
ease. If all the hogs had been prop
erly and promptly treated upon first
signs of the disease the mortality
for the year would have been cut
from 1879 hogs, an exceptionally
high number for Maryland, to APP
proximatley 1900. This would have
meant saving of $3.50 hogs to the
farmers of the State, it is declared.
vaccinating after the hog has con-
tracted the disease, DR.. Anterior
points out, is like locking the pro
verbal barn after the horse has been
stolen. In spite of this, surveys
made of 839 outbreaks during the
recent year show that in only 500
of the cases were the hogs vaccinat-
ed and of these, $3.50 of the hogs
were sick or dead when the serum
was administered. In $40 herds to
which the serum was given 1896 Of
he hogs were infected and of this
number 1854 were lost.
A perusal of these figures, it is de-
Jared, shows that much larger
number of hogs were unnecessarily
ost after the animals were permit
ted, through carelessness, to con-
ract the disease.

The Archbishop of Upsala, Swed'
en-, in recent article in the Federal
Council Bulletin, wrote: 1T is a
good thing sometimes to pronounce
IA solemn anathema. and what
should our generation anathema-
tie with greater conviction than
War? But solemn declarations are
not enough. They demand action
II contradicted by action, they be.
come hypocritical, a hindrance, and
not a means for the furthering OF
peace. Mr.. Kellogg's magnificent
International pact honors both hu-
manity and our epoch. But it must
have backbone in a safe interna-
tibnal settlement"
That is good phase solemn
ahathema. We have been accus-
toned to war and TO its glory and
primacy. Now we must become ac-
customed to peace and to its greater
glory. Man shall not be mastered
BY the dangerous implements of mis-
sdciR1 and international life. He
shall be the servant of his ideals,
and shall at length lead out upon a
world ordered for his progress and
happiness. and not for his suffering
and destruction.-R. X. NJ.

PEACH LEAF CURL SUMMONS
ORCHARDISTS

Peach leaf curl, serious disease
among the peach orchards OF Mary
land, is sounding the first call for
seasonal activity among the orchard
lists of the State, according to DR..
R. A. Jehle, plant pathologist for the
University of Maryland Extension
Service.
The disease, it is said by DR.. Jehle,
causes severe losses to peach grow
ers who neglect the proper applica-
ion of spray at the right time. The
dormant period, before the buds be-
gin to swell, is the proper time for
the application of the spray and
spraying can be done any day when
the temperature is above forty de-
grees Fahrenheit.
Only one application of spray is
necessary and If the work is
thoroughly done during the dormant
period growers need have no further
fear from the disease. This is due
% the fact that the disease propa-
gates by spores and but one crop of
spores is produced each year. The
spores terminate about the time the
peach buds begin to swell. Once the
fungus has entered the buds it can
not be reached by spray material.
The Importance of early spraying is
therefore evident.
For control of the disease, spray
of concentrated lime sulphur (32 de-
grees Baume) twelve gallons to 100
gallons of water is recommended.
If no San Jose scale is present ON
the trees, seven gallons of the con-
centrated lime sulphur will be sutfi-
cient or four pounds of copper sui
plate may be substituted. Ii terra
pin scale or red mite eggs are pres
ent in the orchard, an oil spray used
according to recommendations of the
manufacturer should be applied fol-
lowing the lime sulphur spray
This spray also should be applied
before the buds begin to swell and

STAYMEN APPLES ARE BALTI-
MORE FAVORITES

Among the many varieties OF aps
pies grown in Maryland orchards
he Staymen winesap apparently
leads in popularity on the Baltimore
market. This variety sold most
readily and in largest quantities, &C
ording to information recently
gathered from eighteen Baltimore
commission men and jobbers by w
P. Walker, assistant in agricultural
economies at the University OF Mary
land Experiment Station. The
Winesap was the second most popu-
ar variety.
Opinion as to the popularity of
eastern grown apples in comparison
with those from the West was d.
yided, ten commission firms voicing
the opinion that the eastern fruit
was just as popular as the western
Ind seven endorsing the contrary
view. Most dealers, however, ad.
nitted that they could use more 10

ween two and half and three
inches in diameter, were centrally
conceded to be the best .scllerss
Seven of the dealers queried favored
shis range, five specified the three,
inch size while four others, without
mentioning definite size, said the
.arge apples sold best.
The barrel or hamper type OF con-
:ainer, because of the trade demand
and ease of handling, was pronounc-
ed the most popular by ten OF the
commission merchants while seven
specified boxes, pointing out that the
fruit was less likely to bruise in this
type or carrier. Only one firm was
IN favor of the basket.
One significant fact brought out
in the survey was that fifteen of the
dealers declared lack of grading and
