Schm e | ing fight
booked for Tuesday and the
national open golf champion
ship scheduled to get under
way Thursday, the biggest
sports week of the season is
here.
Of the three events, all at
tracing countrywide attention
and with two having an inter-
national aspect, the hardest to
dope is the Sweep-SWinging con-
test on the Hudson. Rowing is
a sport noted for its upSets. At
least four of the seven crews in
the varsity race are conceded
an excellent chance, with those
who attach much Importance
to time trials inclined to favor
Cornell.
It is the links tourney that
provides the one outstanding
favorite of the trio of events.
In game where form is as
feeting and tickle as in golf it
ordinarily would be odd to find
one contestant generally con-
ceded as dominating as classy
field as that at Fresh
Meadow. now that Bobby Jones
no longer is in the picture. But
considering his impressive tri-
umph in the recent British
Open and the fact that the
Long Island layout is his home
course it seems logical enough
that Gene Sarazen should be
an oddS-On choice.

Winter Mulch Protects Plants
From Heat Rather Than Cold

That a winter mulch of straw or
leaves, or a covering of burlap is a
protection to tender shrubs or other
perennial plants from heat rather than
cold will come as a surprise to many
gardeners. Yet, this is the statement
of Mark M. Shoemaker, assistant
specialist in landscape gardening for
the University of Maryland Extension
Service.
The real purpose of the mulch, he
states, is to prevent the sun from
thawing out the ground too rapidly,
as therein lies the danger to the roots.
Successive freezings and thawings
tend to heave newly planted peren-
malls out of the ground, he says.
1t is not likely, according to Mr..
Shoemaker, that freezing of the
ground can be prevented by the depth
of mulches ordinarily put on. He adj
vises waiting until after the first
heavy frost, or freeze, before doing
this garden chore and then doing it
while the ground still is frozen.
Pruning in the fall or early spring
is perfectly safe for some types of
Towering shrubs, this specialist says,
but it is disastrous for other types.
He points out that some kinds of
shrubs, such as Forsythea, Flowering
Ounce, and Weigala, which bloom
early in the year, produce flowers on
wood made the previous summer.
Pruning that kind of plants in fall or
early spring, he states, removes wood
that would bear bloom. Late summer
and fall blooming shrubs, such as
hydrangea, althea, or creeping myrtle,
bloom on wood made during the cur
rent season and may be pruned safely.
Without worrying about the reas-
ons, Mr.. Shoemaker says, it is safe
rule in most cases to prune inn
mediately after blooming.

SCHOOL DAYS

With Tuesday came the end of the
school children's vacation, when thous-
ands of children in Garrett county
Joined thousands of others in other
counties and states of the nation in
the march to the school room, march
ing with conflicting emotions as the
sound of the bell summoned them to
another years routine of class and
study.
These varied emotions are shared
by the teachers as we'll as pupils, for
no instructor, regardless of how well
he or she may love the work may
hope to find unmitigated pleasure in
the years work of teaching young
ideas how to shoot and instructine
the pupil in many other ways that
formerly was not considered part OF
the curriculum.
Physicians and health officers stress
the need of perfect or nearly perfect
health as part of the necessary equip
ment for the pupil. No child is fitted
to study with impaired vision, defec-
tive molars or physical imperfections
of any kind and in this the parents
and guardians can be of great assis-
lance to the teacher in doing every
thing possible to safeguard against
disease. A clean body tends to keep
the mind clean and with healthy, re-
ceptive mind the child's struggle for
an education loses much of its disad-
vantages and dread.
Parents can help; too, by keeping in
touch with the work of the child and
the teacher, for teacher who is on
friendly terms with the child's par
ents is able to do better work because
of the sympathy and understanding
thus established. The child profits
by this mutual interest and the study
period is easier and attendance need
not be urged or enforced.
The march to the school room is a
march of civilization, of progress and
enlightenment. Many of these chill
dren are potential teachers. The task
of gaining an education is cooper
alive one, and through cooperation
comes the highest form of success.

WELL TO FOLLOW FACTS,
FOOLISH SUPERSTITIONS
Valuable Advice Given By State
Health Department

Speaking of the teeth and their
care, DIR. Richard C. Leonard, Chief
of the Division of Oral Hygiene of
the Maryland State Department of
Health, said:
Certain beliefs regarding the teeth
and their care held by persons unac-
quainted with the facts, have nearly
become superstitious. For instance,
there is the unfounded one that a
child who is born with one or more
we'll formed teeth is destined for
either good or bad fortune. This can
probably be traced back to some of
the old folk beliefs concerning chill
dren who show any unusual character
istics at birth. According to some of
them, such developments signify good
luck; according to others, they indi-
cate the opposite, which is about the
way life turns out, at any rate,
whether we are born toothless or with
a full set. AS matter Of fact, fully
formed teeth in the mouth of the new
born child signify nothing more than
probable excessive activity on ma
lures part in the formation of the
child's dental apparatus.
another belief that amounts al
most to superstition is that it is
dangerous for an eXpectant mother to
have her teeth attended to, and that it
will have an unfavorable effect on the
health of the newborn child, if the
mother has any teeth extracted or
treated. Experience has shown that
dental care can be safely given to
practically every expectant mother. 1t
should be part Of the routine care she
has during this period, and should
never be neglected. The truth of the
matter is that such treatment is es-
sential to the health of both mother
and child.
"a third very general belief, fol-
which there is no foundation, is that
there is no necessity for caring fol-
the first, or baby teeth The mere
fact that they are temporary does
not prevent them from needing strict
supervision and the best of care. They
are important organs, with a definite
function, and with important tasks to
perform. Neglect may make it i'm
possible for them to do their work
which is chewing the food-prop-
erly. This is likely to open the way
for serious systemic disease, and
probably will result in discomfort anc
pain for the child. There is no ques-
ton but that the baby teeth should
have the same sort of care that the
later teeth need.
"My advice in regard to all of these
things is to rid your minds of unscien-
ific, unfounded beliefs, and to base
your dental practices upon actua
facts"

Sheep InfestatiOn the Worst in
Years, County Agent States

From inquiries received at the Of
fee of the county agent in Oakland
it would indicate the parasitic infesta-
ton of sheep is worse than it has been
for years. Farmers who have never
had trouble with parasites before did
not recognize the trouble, but upon
examination heavy infestation of the
stomach worms was found in four
teen f1ocks.
"The damage from parasites is
greatest as rule among lambs and
young animals" Mr.. Carter said.
"The young tissues seem less resis-
tant and the more sensitive nervous
system breaks down more quickly I'M
der the influence of parasitic injury.
Old sheep are subject to infestation
but may not break down as quickly
as lambs.
Treatment for control of parasites
most common in this section is efec-
tive and inexpensive. One to four
dollars will treat 100 sheep, depending
upon treatment selected. The copper
sulphate and black leaf 40 treatment
which has been published in The Re-
publican a number of times is relia-
BILE and effective. r.-~
"Worm capsules consisting of Tet-
rachlorethylene are just as effective
as the copper treatment. The cap
sules are made in two sizes, 21s &C
for lambs and 5 &C. capsules for ma
ture sheep.
"Anyone using commercial capsules
should be sure to follow directions on
package. Most important of all make
sure the capsules you use are made Of

BE FAIR MINDED

So many things have been said SO
many times about the benefit of hold
ing a Garrett County Fair that it
seems unnecessary to enumerate them
again. " ......
This year, as in past years, Henry
M. Speicher, general manager of the
Fair, is asking the people of the
county to become fair minded. Think
fair, talk fair, act fair and Garrett
county will have a show worth the
effort. And above all, forget the petty
differences of the past.
With the crops in good condition.
everybody has an opportunity to make
this annual event one to be remem'
bered. Why not try it?

Forest Reserves in County More
Than Half of Entire State
Acquisition

The total area of State forest in
Maryland is now 49,073 acres, more
than half of which is in the three
areas of Garrett county-Swallow
Falls, Potomac and Savage River. In
these three forests there in an area
of 26,998 acres.
The Savage River reserve is the
largest in the State, with 1929 acres,
while the Swallow Falls and Potomac
tracts contain 1896 and 6,073 acres,
respectively.
Since the last account of the State
Forest acquisition five small areas to-
falling $50 acres were acquired in the
Savage River area; one Military Lot
was purchased on the Potomac State
forest, adding 43 acres there, and
568 acres were bought adjoining the

Canning Tomato Juice

Tomatoes used for juice should be
as red as can be obtained They
should be free from bad or soured
spots. Cracked tomatoes may be
used if the cracks have not had time
to become contaminated with yeasts,
molds or bacteria. This means the
cracks can be only few minutes old.
1t is impossible to cut bad, spot out
of tomato and have it good. One
spoiled tomato in a can of soup is
often what makes canned tomatoes
as we'll as tomato juice spoil.
Preparation-Wash tomatoes clean.
Remove cores and cut into quarters.
Cook the tomatoes over slow fire
until soft or for about twenty min
utes. Turn into a fine sieve and rub
the tomatoes through until the re-
naming pulp is about the consisten-
cy of thick paste, but do not rub all
the pulp through the juice. Use this
first extract for a sauce to can for
the preparation of baked beans. Heat
the juice to the boiling point, add 1
tablespoon of salt to quart. Put the
juice into sterilized glass jars and
seal. Process both juice and PURGE
in the pressure cooker at five pounds
for 10 minutes or in water bath for
25 minutes.
Tomato juice may or may not be
highly seasoned. AS a rule, salt and
perhaps a little pepper are quite suf-
ficient. If a more highly seasoned
juice is desired, add stalk Of celery
to the tomatoes while cooking. A
squeeze of lemon emphasizes the to-
mato flavor. A small amount of
horseradish gives a new flavor.

A KICK BACK

Governor Roosevelt's attacks on the
present administration at Washington
have been altogether fortunate, as
the resulting publicity has shown.
First. after accusing the administra-
ton of bringing on1the panic through
laxness in handling the financial stu
alton and stating how he would RENE
dy it by close regulation of the stock
market and of the banking profession.
Governor Roosevelt was reminded
that the biggest stock exchange in the
world is located in New York City and
amenable to the laws of the State Of
New York, while perhaps the largest
and most nauseous Of American bank
failures has been that of the Bank of
the United States, infNew York City,
a state bank, under the control of the
State Banking Commissioner of New
York, who is in turn under the con-
troll of Governor Roosevelt.
In his New Jersey speech handling
the liquor traffic Governor Roosevelt
again inferred that the national gov
eminent had failed in enforcing the
liquor laws and that it would be pos
sible for states to avoid the return
of saloons after the repeal of the
Eighteenth Amendment, without any
constitutional guaranty against the
return of the saloon. After which
Governor Roosevelt was reminded
that nowhere have liquor law viola
tons been more fragrant than in New
York City, where there are now more

PRACTICAL ROAD BUILD
ING

The most expensive roads are those
which do not serve their communities
well. By the same token, the most
economical roads are those which best
suit local conditions, whether they
cost three thousand dollars a mile or
thirty thousand dollars.
At this time many states, cities and
counties doubtless consider dropping
much of their road work as an econo-
nv measure. This is a mistake-al-
most any other government function
should feel the axe of retrenchment
first. Road construction and mainte-
nance has been one of the most vital
factors in fighting distress and unem-
ployment the past three years
Every road dollar which we spend, so
long as it is spent wisely after due
study of conditions, will return con-
tinuous dividends in the future. 1t
will do this by improving business
conditions, encouraging tourist travel
and broadening the markets and OPP
portunities for agricultural sections.
Good secondary roads, which are
weatherproof, skidproof and long
wearing, can be built with oil or as
phalt surfaces for less than five thous-
and dollars a mile. These make per-
feet feeder arteries for connecting the
towns and farming areas with the
cross-country superhighways. They
have been termed the "food" high
ways of the nation-a title they emf
nently deserve.
The good roads movement has been
one of the most progressive phases OF
the twentieth century. The necessity
of facilities for fast, economical and
year-round transport can hardly be
exaggerated. And roads will play an
even greater part in the future OF
America than they have in the past.

saloons than in any other city of the
country.
In accusing Mr.. Hoover of vague
ness on the liquor question Governor
Roosevelt reminds US that he has
been vague himself on practically ev-
cry political question of the day. His
tariff announcements have certainly
not shown where he stood on tariff re-
vision. In fact, he has been free to
criticize, but very vague in telling
the people where he stands himself.
In referring to Governor Roosevelt's
personal attacks on the President, the
Chicago Tribune recently we'll said:
POLITICALLY Mr.. Hoover must win,
if he does, against such brilliant ac-
cusations as Gov. Roosevelt has be-
gun. There will be more of it. But
what of the governor himself? When
he has revealed bureaucracy founder
ing on the tide flats where the reced-
ing welfare of the country has left it,
what affirmative does he add to his
criticism? Is it not more bureauc-
racy? He damns the ineptitudes Of
the governments operations, but he
proposes an extension of its range.
If he seems to recognize that social
istic theories applied to private en-
terprise has sterilzed it he also re-
veals that he is himself government
minded and that instinctively he be-
lieves that too much socialism needs
more socialism.
"This trend in Roosevelt himself,
which takes on an altruistic mysti-
cism in reference to the legendary
forgotten man, is to be interpreted in
terms of his political associations.
He is the choice of some of the most
dangerous men in Congress, most
dangerous to American principles and
the American nation. The campaign
is still vaporish. The governor is
painting the picture of the President
as he sees him. The country waits
for the full picture of himself"

Identifies Poisonous Snake

This spring while type mapping in
the Savage River State forest in this
county, Matthew Martin, resident for
est warden, killed three-foot poison
Gus snake that resembled a RATHER,
but in place of rattles short blunt
spine protruded. This spine was sent
to the New York Geological Gardens
for identification where it was pro-
nounced to be that of a cotton mouth
moccasin, one of the four poisonous
snakes of the United States.
This is the first time that this spe-
cies of snake has been reported in
Garrett county.
