research, tried samples of the drink
on monkeys, rabbits and white rats,
but all these animals were immune to
paralysis. Then he tried it on chickens,
the bird family having well known
susceptibility to poison.
He gave it to white chickens and
every one developed either paralysis or
symptoms of paralysis.
But when he gave it to black chickens
not one of them showed a symptom
of paralysis.
Scientists who attended the chemical
meeting here this week made a guess
that the paralysis of Jamaica ginger
compound 'iS a function of pigmenta-
tion,' meaning that the coloring matter
in pigment, that makes the complexion,
may in some manner combine with
something in the drink to give the
whites special poison.
Mr.. Address says the experiments are
too incomplete to throw any light on
these guesses.

HARRY GUGGENHEIM
TO RETURN TO CUBA
State Department Denies Official
Unrest Reports From
Havana.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the AsSoclst TED Press.
Reports that Harry r. Guggenheim
would not return to Cuba as United
States Ambassador, brought the as
sertion from State Department officials
today that he would sail or ny to
Havana at the end of his present vaca-
ton.
The Ambassador has been resting at
Port Washington, L. l., after his first
Winter in Havana.
Unofficial reports received in Wash
ington have indicated the political I'M
rest manifested in recent revolutions
in the Argentine, Peru, and Bolivia
might possibly become apparent in
Cuba. State Department officials said
today, however, no official cables indi-
cative of unrest in the island had been
received.
Late reports from Cuba said an at
tempt at reconciliation between adj
ministration leaders and the opposition
group, known as the Nacionalistas, had
failed.
No comment was available at the
State Department concerning the Cuban
situation other than the definite as
sertion that Ambassador Guggenheim
would return. -

THE OUTLOOK

1t is not necessary to state that the
country has been going through an
economic depression during the past
year. 1t is a depression which is
world wide and which attacked the
United States long after it had laid
low the other nations of the world. AS
result, great many people are as
overly. pessimistic as others were
over-optimistic just before the stock
market crash in October. They have
now convinced themselves that we
will never achieve prosperity again in
this generation, and that things were
never so bad before. All of which is,
of course, "the bunk" 1t may take a
little time to get back where we were,
but there is no doubt that the signs
pointing to improvement are increas-
ing.
For instance, Uncle Sans foreign
trade made sizeable gain in August
over July, the first in many months.
Commodity prices, with the excep-
ton of wheat, are showing signs of
stability and improvement, and the
usual seasonal improvement which
comes with the autumn is at hand.

sIET THERE BE LIGHT

The question of a White Way for
Oakland has again come up before the
City Council, and its members are in
favor of having the business section
of Oakland well lighted. However,
before they sign the contract they are
giving the citizens of Oakland a
chance to express their opinion at an
adjourned meeting next Monday.
There is no good reason why Oak
land should not have White Way. A
well lighted town makes cheerful
looking town, and everybody certainly
wants Oakland to look cheerful.
The Republican has only one sug-
geStion to make. Since the business
section of Oakland is going to be well
lighted by the sun in the daytime, and
by 400-Watt bulbs at night, wouldn't
it be good idea to keep the streets
clean? If the town is not able to
hire street cleaner, couldn't the
merchants, when they sweep the side
walks in front of their establishments
each morning, instead of brushing the
refuse into the street, gather it up
and place it in receptacle?
Dirt makes poor reflector for
light rays, but reflects quite bit on
the citizens of Oakland.

LINKING UP OUR GOOD
ROADS
Gan editorial from the Piedmont
Herald)

Gan editorial from the Piedmont
Herald)
We have long advocated the con-
Meeting of Oakland and Kitzmiller by
a hardsurfaced road and we rejoice
with those communities in the COM
pletion of the project. AS long as Kitz-
miller, the second largest town in Gar
rett county, was without hardsur-
faced road to the county seat, we felt
a hesitancy in urging the building of
a good road from Bloomington to the
crossroads where the Bloomington,
Kitzmiller and Oakland roads con-
verge. Now, however, we feel that the
next project in this vicinity should be
the building of the ten miles of road
that will link this community with
Kitzmiller, Deer Park, Mt. Lake Park
and Oakland.
Such a road will not only provide a
shorter route between Oakland and the
Tri-Towns, with the resultant advan-
tages to both communities, but will
bring within forty minutes reach of
the Tri-Towns the splendid facilities
for boating, fishing and camping which
Deep Creek Lake affords. The COM
pletion of the Westernport-Mc Coole
road and of this proposed road beyond
Bloomington will greatly shorten the
distance between Cumberland and
Oakland and make these outdoor activ-
tiles more easily accessible to the peo-
pie of that city and vicinity.
The road will also give the people
of the Kingwood-M organtown section
a more direct route to the East. The
route will eventually extend through
Oldtown, Paw Paw, Berkeley Springs
and Martinsburg. and on to Washing
ton.
We believe the members of the
Maryland State Roads Commission
recognize these advantages and we
hope they will make completion of
this ten mile stretch above Bloom
ington a part of next years road
building program.

COUNTY AGENTS COLUMN

Resident County Agent, ed.
Oakland, Maryland

How to Get Most out of Livestock
Feed
Methods for making the limited
amounts of feed available this year
for livestock and dairy cows go as far
as possible are described by j. A.
Conover, Dairy specialist of the Uni
versity of Maryland Extension Ser
vice.
"Unless there is sufficient silage for
all cattle, feed it to the best mixers"
says Mr.. Conover, land rough the
dry cows and young stock through on
coarse and weedy hay and oats or
wheat straw" He also advises that
the best hay be fed to the heavy
producers.
If all hay and straw are run thru
the silage cutter and dampened with
molasses water, one quart of cane
molasses to one gallon of water, it is
stated, they will be more palatable,
will go further, and will be entirely
consumed.
1t is emphasized that legume hay,
especially alfalfa, will produce more
milk and will go further, so that it
is wise to invest in that kind of hay,
if hay must be purchased. Accord
ing to Mr.. Conover, alfalfa hay is
worth from $500 to $500 a ton
more than non-legume hay for milk
production. ...
Feeding of wheat in amounts up to
one-third of the grain mixture is
recommended as long as the price Of
wheat remains low in proportion to
the prices of other grains. Comfor-
table housing of animals and provid-
ing them with water from which the
chill has been removed during cold
weather are urged as measures that
may well be followed for the purpose
of getting the maximum value from
the feed used. IT
Among the grain rations suggested
in which wheat is included are the
following: Ground barley, 400 lbs,
ground wheat 800 lbs, cottonseed
meal, 200 lbs, linseed meal, 100 lbs.
Another ration includes ground wheat,
300 lbs, ground oats, 400 lbs, ground
corn and cob meal, so lbs, ground
wheat, $50 lbs, 1920 dairy feed, 450
lbs.
