Fall crops in 1880 were IA
vored by a late growing season
and yields exceeded expectations
Of a month ago, but the Novem-
Der crop report issued by the De-
partment Of Agriculture today
showed a considerable drop in
production below last year. Pro
longed drought in many States
is held responsible.
Maryland showed smaller
yields in corn, buckwheat, apples,
pears, potatoes, sweet potatoes
and tobacco, while the only in
crease-one of only per cent
was in grapes.
Only One Gain
Corn and sweet potatoes showed
the greatest drop in Maryland
with the acreage corn yield drop
ping from 36.5 to Is bushels.
Sweet potatoes fell to 66 bushels
per acre this season as compared
with l25 for last.
Estimates Of corn production
for the entire country rose 2 per
cent since last month, but this

GRANGE SEEKS
NEW TAX PLAN

BELTSVILLE, Md, Nov. Is.
Advocating a proposal to tax the
income of Prince Georges County
farmers instead Of their land
holdings to be presented to the
Maryland State Grange when
that body meets in Silver Spring
next month. the Pomona Grange
of Prince Georges County closed
it's quarterly meeting here Thurs
day night.
The proposal was developed
and presented to the Pomona
Grange by the farm taxation
committee Of the Prince Georges
group. Whether or not the new
method Of taxation will become a
bill to be presented to the State
Legislature depends upon the
action of the State Grange.
In face of the severe drought
and loss of crops the present tax
ruling viii require the farmer to
pay just as high q tax as in a
prosperous season. This, accord
ing to the Grange, is unfair and
the farmers taxes should be
judged by his income and not
his property holdings.

CLARENDON. Va, Nov. 15.-Tn
response to letters recently sent
out by Mrs. Norbert Melnick,
chairman of the group in charge
Of the sale Of Christmas seals
for Arlington county, orders for
seals amounting to $l25 have
been received.
These letters were sent to the
various business firms Of Airing

the health seals on the annual
statements which are sent out
around Christmas.
The letters also explained that
the purpose Of the seal sale was
to raise funds for the fight
against tuberculosis all over the
country. The proceeds from the
sale go to the County Health
Department and win enable it to
continue its work along this line.
By an agreement with the Red
Cross, public sale will not begin

COUNT SEEKS
POLICE CHANGE

UPPER MARLBORO, Md. Nov.
ia change in the manage
ment of the police force and ap-
preparation of funds for the vol
unteer fire department of Prince
Georges county will be among
the first items considered by the
new members of the State LegiS-
lature from this county, accord
ing to rumors in this vicinity.
The police force, now Subordi-
nate to the sheriff, will in all
probability be placed under COM
mand of the County Commits
sioners. The present method was
begun as an experiment, and in
the recent election both Demo
cratic and Republican parties
recommended this change.
The fire fund bill, now in
highly tentative form. would
create three classes of fire-fight-
ing units in the county. The
first class, consisting of a pumper
with capacity of at least $50
gallons, and a service or aerial
truck with at least eco feet of
ladder, would be granted $500
for each piece of equipment:
the second class, consisting of
chemical truck, one engine
equipped with booster pumps, or
q hose wagon, would be granted
$400 for each piece, while an
unspecified allotment would be
made for rescue units. The res
cue squad now has three am
balances, and there are a number
Of units throughout the county.
AS now drafted, the bill pro-
hibits my company from receiv-
ing the proposed appropriation
on more than three pieces of 'ap-
paratus. This bill, it is believed,
will be brought before the advis-
ory board of the Prince Georges
Volunteer Fire Department at a
meeting in Mt. Rainier on Decem-
Der 10.

mond, Washington Highway and
which has burned over 600 acres
Of wooded land.
Two fire-fighting units, under
the direction Of Forest Warden
John Bayliss, had given up hope
Of extinguishing the flame and
were lending their efforts to an
attempt to keep 1t from spread

Report Shows Drought Hit
Maryland Crops Hard

areas were reported smaller in
size than usual, and the entire
crop somewhat below average.
Pears declined in Maryland but
the nation produced the largest
crop since 1925.
The production estimate Of
359, TOE, 900 bushels for the nation,
includes a considerable quantity
of small, understandable pota'
toes. It is the smallest crop
since the drought Of 1901.
Tobacco acreage was 5 per cent
more than last year but returns
do not indicate that the crop will
be bigger.

OVER PROPOSED
CONTEST
No Evidence Of Fraud on Hand
to Warrant Demand for Re-
count of Election Returns

ROCKVILLE, Md, Nov. l5.-Af-
ter many apparently fruitless
meetings here Of the board Of
strategy" Of the Montgomery
county Republican party, COM
posed Of several leading attorneys,
it today appears that the plan to
file petitions to contest the re-
cent county election has been in
definitely postponed, II not COM
pletely abandoned.
differentiation Democrats,
who were prominent in support
of the Republican county ticket,
when asked Is to the status OF
the proposed recount of the bal
lots, disclaimed taking any part
in the contest proceedings. Lead
ing Republicans, identified with
the movement, admitted being In
the dark as to their probable fu'
ture actions.
Evidence Lacking
It was generally admitted that,
since the law requires those who
propose to contest an election to
show prima facie evidence OF
fraud, 1t has been, up to today,
impossible to obtain that kind OF
evidence. No person prominent in
the proposed undertaking could
be found who would admit that
grave irregularities in the voting
on last election day could be
proven.
While there was much conSulta-
ton yesterday between several Of
the anti" leaders and Republi-
cans, it was learned that nothing
definite came out Of the conver-
sations except further uncertainty
Of mind.
It is known that the petition,
or petitions. have been drawn up
and made ready for filing the
moment those having the matter
in charge pass the word along.
1t appears possible that con-
test may be made in the case
of one Republican candidate for
county commissioner, who was
defeated by only Is votes. This
candidate is Frank n. Karn, who
was defeated by William Frank
Rickett. The precinct count
showed Karn the victor by 20
votes; but upon the official count
being made by the board of elec-
ton supervisors. it was shown
that Rickett was winner by IS
votes.
New Basis for Contest
Many attorneys Of both par
ties believe that the element Of
human error in counting votes
enters into a case where the
majority is so slight to such an
extent that a judge Of the court
would grant q petition for re-
count upon Athat basis alone.
without recourse to compelling
the charge Of fraudulent voting
to be made.
While the majority Of Robert
G. Hilton, Democratic candidate
for State Senator, over Thomas
M. Anderson, his Republican
opponent, is only 100. the fact
that the General Assembly Of
Maryland. which doesn't meet
until January, 1881, must decide
whether q recount shall be made
Of that vote, has considerably
dampened the ardor Of those
favoring the recount.
There appears to be no unified
thought among the Republican
leaders as to definite action in
the election controversy that
nearly all Montgomery county
politicians discuss every day.
