GOOD HARVESTS SEEN ON
COUNTY FARMS This YEAR
Corn and Potato Crops Look I'm
usually Good at This Time,
County Agent Carter States
EXPECT AVERAGE YIELDS

The dark green color of healthy
corn, intermingled here and there with
the lighter shades of the ripening
grass and forage crops, is holding
predominant sway over the fields of
Garrett county this week, giving in
dications of a more than average har-
vest this fall. Buekwheat, sown late
in June, is showing a good stand and
while it is now too early to predict
the ultimate outcome; indications are
that buckwheat cakes will not be
strangers on the tables of Garrett
countians the coming winter.
County Agent John H, Carter, who
has been making daily trips into the
various farming sections, said that the
corn and potato crops look unusually
good and hay and other forgae crops
fair. Owing to the early dry spell, the
meadows are not as productive as
last year, and the season for peas has
been below the average. The appear
ance of the corn is healthy, he said,
and is apparent in practically all sec
tions of the county.
Practically all the farmers are OPP
timistic about the fall harvest, and
unless some catastrophe comes they
are certain to make good returns from
their labor. What they will be able to
get for their products in the markets
will determine the conditions for next
year.
Maryland farmers as whole have
reduced their acreages in corn, wheat,
tobacco and sweet potatoes, but these
are partially Offset by increased acre
ages of hay, barley, and white pota-
toes. The wheat crop suffered losses
from insects and diseases during June
The corn throughout the state has not
grown well this spring and prospects
are for yield per acres about two
bushels below the average. About av-
erage yields Of potatoes are expected
and better than average yields of
sweet potatoes. Average prospects
for yields of hay crops are reported.
Present conditions promise a good
crop of grapes, but other fruit crops
are spotted and production of apples,
peaches and pears will be considerably
lower than last year.

MT. LAKE PARK

The Baltimore contingent of the
Epworth League has charge of the
Park this week. They are an upstand-
ing fine set of young men and women.
The registration shows approx
mately 275-not so bad for a depres-
sion year.
An encouraging sign is the presence
of some members of the League from
the Pittsburgh area. 1t is rumored
that there is some dissatisfaction over
the site chosen for their meeting this
year, many are in favor of returning
to the Park next year. Here's hoping.
Of the Baltimore crowd, more than
a hundred are here for the first time.
That is also good sign, but, never
theless we miss some of the old fell
lows who have been coming here for
several years. We hope that by next
year Old Man Depression will be down
for the count.

there were upwards of 1000 people
gathered in the Auditorium not

The presence of some of Oakland's
outstanding citizens, serving as a

touch and made the spirit of coopera-
ton more evident We are moving in
the right direction. Better times for
the Park are in the offing.
Nearly every cottage in the Park
is now occupied. The few remaining
will be shortly rented.
1t was all mistake about the B. &

present Although the hand-thrown
switches are all in place, ready to be

Only two candidates have filed APP
plications for councilmen to be voted
for at the coming August primary
election. These are Gay Hayden and
James Elliott. The latter will sue
coed himself. Although an ordinance
passed by council provides for the
holding of the primary election, yet,
inasmuch as only two candidates have
filed and there are only two vacancies
to be filled, it would seem an unneces-
sary expense, in this instance. Moth
ing would be gained, as there is no
provision in the ordinance allowing
to go on the ticket by pc
tition, or otherwise. Therefore, only
the two candidates who have filed
can be voted for, and
their election is assured.

stands two numbers below Capt. Ernest

engineering duty only, there is consider
able comment in naval circles concern

the promotion of any officer in that
