To End aCoueh
In Hurry, Mix
This at Home

To end a stubborn cough quickly, 1t
is important to soothe and heal the in
famed membranes, get rid of the germs
and also to aid the system inwardly to
help throw off the trouble.
For these purposes, here is home
made medicine, far better than anything
you could buy at 3 times the cost. From
any druggist, get PA ounces of Pinex.
Pour this into a pint bottle, and add
plain granulated sugar syrup or strained
honey to fill up the pint. This takes
but q moment, and makes a remedy so
effective that you win never do with
out, once You have used it. Keeps per-
fectly, and children like it.
This simple remedy does three neces-
sary things. First, it lOosens the germ.
laden phlegm. Second, it soothes away
the inflammation. Third, it is absorbed
into the blood, where it acts directly
on the bronchial tubes. This explains
why it brings such quick relief, even
In the obstinate bronchial coughs
which follow cold epidemics.
Pinex is a highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway Pine, con.
tanning the active agent of creosote, in
n refined, palatable form, and known
as one of the greatest healing agents
for severe coughs, chest colds and
bronchial troubles.
Do not accept a substitute for Pinex.
1t is guaranteed to give prompt relief
or money refunded.

farmers TOLD
HOW To PLANT
THEIR CORN

COLLEGE PARK. Nd. March
10.-In selecting seed corn from
the crib for spring planting, Mary
land trainers are urged by F..
w. oldenburg. specialist in agron-
omy for the University of Mary
land Extension Service, to be
particularly careful to use only
well-formed, healthy, true.to-form
stock. especially as much Of the
corn in Maryland was destroyed
by freezing weather last Novem-
Der.
Oldenburg suggests that farm
ers take the following steps in
selecting their seed corn: First,
only well-formed ears OF medium
size and typical of the variety
should be used; second, a more
careful inspection should be made
of each ear with a sharp corn
knife; third, two or three grains
from each ear should be cut into
to see II the germs are free
from discoloration and waxy in
texture; fourth, the seed should
be tested for termination.
It is believed that II these four
rules are followed carefully. en-
lcouraging results will be obtained.
Over period of 5 years, in 10
counties Of the State where 116
tests have been conducted by
Oldenburg and DR.. r. A. Je1le,
plant pathologist for the Univer-
sity Extension Service, an aver
age increase of 81a bushels have
been secured and in some cases
increases of from IL to IA bushels
were obtained.

100000 LOAN
ON MARYLAND
TOBACCO

BALTIMORE, March 10. A
$500,00o commodity loan to the
Maryland Tobacco Growers Asso-
citation, with headquarters here,
by the Federal Farm Board, will
probably go into effect early this
week, George I. Gardener, vice
president and sales manager Of
the association said.
The loan was authorized pri-
marily to enable the association
to make advances on additional
member-produced tobacco crops
not practical under present credit
facilities.
1t was said by the Federal
Farm Board that the association
handled about 40 per cent Of all
tobacco grown in the State. This
figure, however, is much too
small, Gardener said, declaring
that during the past seven years
the association has handled
about So per cent of the tobacco
crops of the State.
The loan will be used princi-
pally for marketing and exten-
sion purposes officers of. the aSso-
citation say. Since its organi2a-
ton in 1919. the association has
been somewhat handicapped due
to the fact that it had to operate
on limited capital. The. loan will
probably enable the organization
to expand considerably and also
operate on closer margin.
Officers of the organization in
addition to Gardener are Thomas
Parran, president, and j. c.
Brown, manager.

DECLARED
] To HAVE WIDE
SUPPORT

SILVER SPRING. Nd, March
ioeserious consideration is being
given by local business and civic
headers to a change in the name
OF the town OF Silver Spring.
There is considerable senti-
Rnent among business interests in
favor Of the change. These men
feel that In view Of the dressing
up" that is going on In this
community that the name Of the
town should be dressed up"
as well.
It was pointed out that open
inR Of the new east-west highway
which connects with Sixteenth
Street at the District of Columbia
line viii make q new gateway nat
only to Silver Spring, but to the
communities to the north.
No One-Horse Town
According to one line Of
thought this will make a more
elaborate entrance to this section
and, therefore, name in keeping
with the beauty and dignity of
the new entrance should be
adopted.
As one man expressed 1t, Some
Washington people still think of
Silver. Spring as a little one-horse
town at the end of Georgia
Avenue 1t is the desire of
local business men to wipe out
Whatever old impressions Of Silver
spring Washingtonians m ay
harbor and to create in their
minds a new picture Of the COM
n1unity which has developed here
during the past few years.
Some time ago business men
OF this section spent consider
able sum advertising it as Mary
land North Of Washington. This
designation, however, proved too
cumbersome and failed to take. /"
What they are looking for now is
some name which can be applied
not only to the immediate Silver
Spring section. but to nearby
communities as we'll.
Point To Washington
Under this scheme the other
communities, such as Woodside,
North Woodside, Montgomery
Hills, and other DEVELOPMENTS
would not necessarily lose their
names, but would be designated
as the. "Woodside section of so
and-so," in much the same way
as portions of Washington are
Pleasant, Petworth, etc.
At 4 recent meeting of the
Silver Spring Chamber of Com
merce b committee was appointed
to work out a suitable design for
ornamental welcome" signs to
be placed at each entrance to
Silver Spring. Their work, how.
ever. is being held in abeyance
until the question Of change in
name has been settled.
