CERTIFIED SEED GROWERS
UNABLE TO MEET DEMAND
All State Certified Potato Stock
Has Been Sold at Better Than
Average Prices
CERTIFY 65,94S BUSHELS

In striking contrast with growers
of other agricultural commodities,
Maryland certified seed potato grow
ers this year were unable to supply
enough stock to meet the demand and
received considerably more than the
market price for their product, accord
ing to DR.. R. A. Jehle, specialist in
plant pathology at the University of
Maryland.
DR.. Jehle states that 65,948 bushels
of potatoes, the largest quantity ever
certified in the State, were eligible
for certifcation this year. Of this
amount, 1855 bushels were of the
cobbler variety and were second crop
potatoes grown in Worcester and
Somerset counties. Practically all of
the remainder of the seed was grown
in Garrett county.
Approximately 10000 bushels of the
second crop were sold in New Jersey,
Maryland, and Virginia, the average
price received being So for an eleven
peck barrel, or fifty cents more than
the average price for uncertified seed.
it is stated that the demand exceeded
the supply of this seed. Many of the
fields in New Jersey planted with
these potatoes were visited by DR..
Jehle, VINO said they were practically
free from disease and were the best
looking potatoes he saw in that State.
The growers were well pleased with
the stock and want more next year.
Of the Garrett county crop, approx
mately 5000 bushels were sold to
West Virginia growers who paid
seventy-fve cents bushel for it,,
twenty-five cents above the price for
uncertified seed. Fourteen bushels of
the Garrett stock were planted in
Frederick county.
In several instances, according to
DR.. Jehle, growers planted home
grown stock along side of the certi-
fled potatoes from Garrett county, but
found to their regret that the yield
from the home grown stock was from
twenty-five to fifty per cent less.

Bean Lodges In Child's BrOn-
chial Tube; Extracted in
Baltimore HOSPITAL

The two-year-old daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Lloyd 'Mac" Tasker was
near death on Tuesday night as the
result of bean becoming lodged in
her bronchial tube.
When no local physician could be
obtained, DR.. George E. Clarke,
health officer, was called, who revived
the child and advised that she be
rushed to a hospital. She was taken
by her parents to Keyser and then on
to Cumberland where in both cases it
was found that no facilities for remov-
ing objects from the bronchial tube
were at hand and the nurse and sur
geon who had been called at Cum
berland went with the child and her
parents to Baltimore where at the
University Hospital the bean was sue
cessfully extracted.
When asked what the charges would
be for his assistance the Cumberland
surgeon replied: "The bean and the
price of the gasoline used in bringing
US to Baltimore"

SCOUT SAVES GIRL ABOUT
TO DROWN IN DEEP CREEK
Had Gone Down Six Times But
Had Not Swallowed Much Water

Once again a boy scouts training
has been responsible for saving life,
according to Elmer Haulenbeek, pro-
prietor of Rainbow Inn, on Deep Creek
Lake, eight miles north of Oakland.
Jean Bishop, 21, of Johnstown, Pa,
member of camping party along
Deep Greek, was being taught to
swim. She got into deep water, be-
came frightened and went down. She
went under six times, having presence
of mind to take breath each time she
came to the surface. The sixth time
she was practically exhausted and
swallowed lot of water, and would
have drowned, had not assistance
come.
Marshall Jones, a scout from the
Clarksburg council, now encamped at
Rainbow Inn, was in rowboat at the
time. He jumped into the water with
his clothes on and swan toward the
girl just as she was going down for
the sixth time. A little push was all
that was necessary to send her close
to shore, so that she could touch bot
tom, and the danger was over.
Jones was awarded an extra week
in camp, free of charge, and the girl
whom he saved will see that he gets
to stay another week, making two
weeks extra in camp.

COUNTYS FIRST FAMILY OF CLIFF DWELLERS FOUND AT
ROCK CAMP; EXPECT TO REMAIN THERE UNTIL FALL

little food they have, and one or two
repaired chairs complete the furnish
ings.
To keep out the rain they have
used old rugs, awnings, window blinds
and heavy paper.
While waiting for better times the
mother is not loafing. She wants to
remain in her rock home until black
berries are ripe and she is able to
can them for next winters food. Her
brother, in the meantime, has a gar
den planted which is expected to
yield food for the cold winter days
ahead. What little work he can find
at present provides enough money to
keep them supplied with the bare ne
cessities of life.
Mabel is SO years old and her chill
dren, Jim, Claude, Mabel, Marion,
Madaline, are II years to months.
Her husband disappeared more than
a year ago, leaving them no means of
support. But they are making the
best of it, and when asked if she
would rather be moved to some house
if it could be arranged, she replied
that she was comfortable there and
would rather not leave until after the
blackberries were ripe.
Keeping clean is hard job, but
with water within stones throw of
Rock Camp, this difficulty is being
overcome as much as is possible. And
when it came to posing for pictures,
they were just as human as the rest
of US and smiled gayly for DIR. George

INCENDIARISM Is BLAMED
FOR RECENT BLAZE HERE
Three Held for Questioning in
County JaiEAnOther Being
Held in UniOntOwn Jail
SAID. TO HAVE CONFESSED

Three are being held in the Garrett
county Jail, another is being held in
Uniontown, Pa, and two others may
be implicated as a result of the early
morning fire at the property, corner
of Fifth and Alder streets, on June
16, which was said to be of incendiary
origin.
The three being held in the Garrett
county Jail, Sam Picquadio, Martin
Jubic and Louis Wisilosky, all of
Connellsville, Pa, are said to have
confessed to their part in the crime
and it is alleged that they have i'm
plicated a fourth party, Tony Brom-
eio, also of Connellsville, who is at
present in the jail at Uniontown. He
would not waive extradition, but a
requisition for extradition papers has
been sent to Governor Ritchie by
States. Attorney Walter w. Dawson,
and it is possible that he will be
brought here for a hearing.
1t is understood that Bromeio, the
alleged head of the "gang," knows
the principal or principals who paid
for having the fire set.
After the fire had been extinguished
the morning of the 18th Emroy Boil
den, one of the fremen, discovered a
can and some cloth which had been
soaked with gasoline. While investi-
eating the case a county detective
and district attorney from Fayette
county, Pa, were questioning Sam
Picquadio, who had been apprehended
on the charge of robbing filling
station. Two tires on his car had just
been bought recently from Ray Teets'
garage, Oakland, and further ques-
tioning brought out the fact of the
reason of their visit. -
The other two were then implicaed
and all three in turn are said to have
implicated the fourth. That the fourth
person would also have some inter-
esting information was predicted by
county authorities. A hearing is to
be held soon.
In the alleged confession it was
said to be stated that the fire had been
started by a candle. When the can
die burned low it ignited the gasoline
soaked rags and these in turn ignited
the stairway. The poor ventilation
and lack of draft were said to have
been the cause of delaying the start
of the fire until after daylight. The
plans evidently had been to have it
is ashes before that time.
The record title for the property
is in the name of George H. Barron,
of lockwood, Pa, and the vendors
lien is held by J. Victor Shartzer, of
Connellsville.
