Potato Fields Are Inspected

OF. eraser, teacher Of Agriculture
in the local high school, and Rev. c. A.
Shilke, chairman of the Boys Work
Committee of the Rotary Club, COM
pleted an inspection of the potato
fields of the boys who are members of
the Rotary Club potato project among
the youth of this section of the coun-
ty. The inspectors expressed them
selves as being well pleased with the
outlook and condition in which they
found nearly all the fields.
The Rotary Club joined with the B.
& o. Potato Club for Garrett county
in making an experiment to prove that
Garrett county can raise certified seed
potatoes from locally grown seed as
well as from seed grown in other
sections. If the experiment proves
successful it will mean thousands of
dollars annually to potato growers
of Garrett county.

Branbridge and a crew of over 300,
got the Philadelphia off the reef and
added the vessel to the Tripolitan
navy.
1t was then decided that the Phila
delphia should be destroyed rather
than remain in the hands of the Tri-
politans. Then it was that Stephen
Decatur, Marylander, offered to lead
a surprise boarding party to recapture
or destroy the ship. On his second
attempt to enter the harbor he was
successful, and in a brilliantly con-
Quoted attack, under the most dis
couraging conditions, Decatur routed
the free-booters and set fire to the
vessel.
Decatur did not stop at this victory
but was active in a series of attacks
upon Tripolitan gunboats in the har-
Dor of Tripoli. 1t has been said
that the act of recapturing the Phila-
delphia twas the boldest and most
daring act of the age"
It is said that Decatur's life was
saved in one of the hand to-hand con-
flicts with Tripolitan officer by a
sailor who interposed his body be-
tween the American and the appraised
sword of the Tripolitan.

An Interesting Fact

Stephen Decatur-Pirate Fighter
In the early 1905, during the adj
ministration of president Jefferson,
there occurred the war with the Bar
barry States, which, with respect to
one Marylander at least, proved to be
good training for the American navy
in the war of 1872. This war on and
with the Mohammedan pirates of the
Mediterranean was one which brings
to mind stories of Drake, Frobisher
and other free booting characters of a
previous age, which stirred our
imaginations and our blood as youths.
The Mohammedans had a habit of
inprisoning their captives and holding
them for high ransom. Among these
captives were many Americans, in
Guiding some Marylanders.
During Washington's second ad-
ministration, Jefferson endeavored to
induce Congress to furnish enough
ships to bring these Corsairs to terms,
without relying upon European pow
ers, who seemed to wink at the depre-
dations. But nothing was done thru
the whole Adams administration, ex-
cept to increase the sum of immunity
payments. In fact this nation was
Inundated by having one of our ships,
the George Washington, sail thru the
Dardanelles with pirate flag nailed
to her masthead, to insure immunity
from pirate attack.
At last an American fleet was
raised and concentrated off the coast
of Tripo1f. The Philadelphia, with
Commodore Brainbridge in command,
ran aground in an effort to overtake
a Moorish craft. The pirates swarmed
over the helpless vessel, captured
