Governor Wilson of Vermont
recently pointed out that the
prosperity of the nation is
largely dependent on the pros
perity of agriculture, and said:
"Only by united effort can
dairy farmers secure their just
rights, Cooperation is abso-
lutely essential.
"If farmers do not have some
profit for their labor and in
vestment, the public cannot be
assured an adequate milk sup
ply at a fair price for long"
What Governor Wilson says
goes for all other farm produc-
ers, whether they handle cot
ton, sheep or wool, morgan
lied agriculture means depres-
sed agriculture, even when
general business conditions are
good, The cooperative move
ment is the farmers answer to
conditions that have become
steadily worse in recent years.

ELEVEN COUNTIES REPRE-
SENTED In TOMATO
CONTEST
-
Ten-TOn Tomato Club Contest
Promises To Be Excit.
ing This Year

One hundred and fourteen
growers from the principal to-
mato growing counties of the
State are competing for honors
in the fifth annual Ten-Ton
Tomato Club Contest, it is
stated by T. D. Holder, canning
crops specialist for the Univer-
sity of Maryland Extension
Service. This contest, which
was started in 1928 by the Tri-
State Packers Association, in
connection with the State Uni
versity, offers awards annually
to the three Maryland tomato
growers making highest yields.
In addition, all growers whose
yields are above ten tons to the
acre, receive certificates Of
membership in the Ten-Ton
Tomato Club. Promotion Of
the production of higher yields
per acre, which will of neces-
sity result in improved quality
without the tendency to in
crease total production, is the
object of the contest.
While records for this year
have not been received from
all the entries, it is understood
that a number of growers made
high yields and there will be
considerable competition for
the prizes. Yields are based
on receipts of deliveries made
to Gamers from a definite,
measured acreage. Winners
will be announced and awards
presented at the annual meet
ing of the 'Tri-State Packers
Association.
According to Mr.. Holder,
growers representing, Freder-
lex, Baltimore, Hartford, Cecil,
Kent Queen Anne, Carroll, Tai
bot, Dorchester, Wicomico and
Worcester counties are taking
part in the contest this year.
Nineteen growers are enroll
ed in Cecil County. ALI yield
reports are not in yet. To date
Harvey e. SINNERS and Har-
vey S. Ewing have reported
over ten tons of tomatoes per
acre.

RISING SUN ELKTON $

On Saturday last Rising Sun
defeated Elkton Us in the clos
ing game of the season for
both clubs. This being the
first time these teams had met
in three years there was still
the same rivalry that existed in
days gone by. Both teams
fought for victory from start
to finish and the result was in
doubt until the last man was
retired. The feature of the
game was the fielding of Mar
ian Rawlings and the hitting
of Jimmie Dinsmore. War
burton for Elkton and Poist for
the Sun each allowed but 6 hits
and had 8 strike-outs to their
credits.

MISSISSIPPI FLOOD CON-
troll WORK

A far-reaching network of
low-cost inland, freight-carry-
ing waterways; Old Man River
Mississippi, the once chronic
rampager, brought at last I'M
der effective control; these are
two dreams of many years
which the national bread bas-
ket, otherwise the middle West.
has seen to take form during
the last 31a years.
There are mile on mile of
new protective levees in the
place of constantly shifting
mud banks. Long stretches of
revetment spell safety from
floods for human lives and
crops. New harbors and term
inal facilities aid the transfer
of water shipments to land;
locks and dams by the scores
facilitate navigation. 1t is a
development in the national
transportation system wholly
new, and as yet far from fully
appreciated, which leaders in
river work survey as they
check over a map of the ma
TONS interior, showing pro-
jects completed or under way.
Many were the problems
that had to be surmounted in
the improvement of the lower
Mississippi. First of all, the
engineers faced a task stagger-
ing in its sheer immensely.
From Cairo, ILL.,, to the Gulf Of
Mexico, lay an overflow area
600 miles long and so miles
wide through which passed the
drainage from a watershed L.
100000 square miles in extent.
AS far north as the mouth of
the Ohio, the river ran a 1,O0O,-
900 cubic feet a second, a vol
ume more than doubled in food
time.
Today as a result of the ire
mendous amount of work that
has been done there is def
nitely controlled channel in
the lower river, SO protected
that in many places a former
flood flow width of so miles has
been confined to a course less
than a mile across. The story
of the work is told in the de-
tailed reports of the army en-
gineers, published in large vol
umes of hundreds of pages, but
the realization of how much it
means to the nation warrants
the reading.

WEST NOTTINGHAM 2e-
THOMAS PATTON 0

Opening their season last
Saturday, the West Noting
ham Academy gridmen swept
to a 26 to 0 victory over the
Thomas Patton school, of Eliz-
abethtown, Pa. A fast NOV
ing veteran backfield, behind a
charging line, slashed through
the losers defence for long
gains. Armstrong crossed the
goal line twice, while .Teeter
and Odell each countered once.
The first period found Arm
strong receiving the kickoff
for the local team and return
ing to the As yard line. From
here the Nottingham eleven
moved straight down the field
to a touchdown, which was &C
counted for by Teeter, who
slammed through tackle from
the four yard line. Metzgar
drop-kicked the goal. The
next period found Patton play
ing their best football of the
afternoon, when they stopped
two Nottingham drives short of
the goal line. The half ended
at Z to 0 for Nottingham.
The opening of the second
half found Nottingham staging
another drive up the field, but
once again the Patton team
stopped the victors just short
of the goal line. Teeter re-
turned a punt to the seven yard
line as the period closed. In
the final quarter the w. N. A.
team really opened up their
attack and scored three times.
Twice the stocky Armstrong
smashed his way over the goal
line. On each occasion, Bow
les had put the ball IN scoring
position by long runs from be-
hind a screen of fast interior
ers. The final Nottingham
score came when Odell took a
long pass from Metzgar and
sprinted over the final chalk
mark. One more point was
added when Odell drop-kicked
the goal.
The fast charging of the
Nottingham line, time after
time, put Wood, McCauley and
Ray in the Patton backfield to
smother every threat.
Nottingham's next game will
be with Wilmington H. s. J. u,
at West Nottingham. on Fri
day afternoon, October IA,

PASSION PLAY
Thrills Large Audiences At
Auditorium, Baltimore

Auditorium, Baltimore
One of the most spectacular
and impressive dramatic pro-
auctions ever staged in this
section of the country opened
last Monday evening at the
Auditorium, Baltimore, when
the original Freiburg Passion
Play was presented before a
large audience. This was the
initial performance of a three
week engagement.
More than 200 people assist
ed the Freiburg cast who left
their homes in Freiburg, Ger
many, in order to make a
United States tour for the pre-
sentation of "the play sub
lime"
Adolf Fassnacht, portraying
the role of the "Christus," inn
parted an awe-inspiring con-
ception of the life and suffer-
ings of Jesus Christ. In addi-
ton to carrying the principal
role in the drama. Herr Fass-
nacht is the director of the
Passion Play.
Detailed settings, many of
them exact reproductions of
famous paintings of Biblical
history, are the backgrounds
used for the unfolding of the
thirty-two impressive scenes
and tableaux. The story as
presented was from Christ's
triumphal entry into Jerusa-
lem until His crucifxion and
included every one of the inn
portant events of the Passion
Week.
Adding to the grandeur of
the play were the elaborate
and colorful costumes worn by
the scores of people who took
part in the play and the prac-
tically perfect lighting effects.
Particularly pleasing was
the incidental music that en-
HANGED all of the more inn
portant scenes. The Passion
Play Chorus was recruited
from various choruses and
church choirs of Baltimore.
The intenseness with which
the play was received was the
outstanding feature of the per-
Torrance. Throughout the
three hours of the emotional
drama the audience sat in alb
solute silence, showing it's ap-
probation with solemn re-
spect.
The Passion Play will be
staged in the Auditorium, Ho-
ward Street above Franklin,
Baltimore, for three weeks, Oc-
tober 10th to 10Th. All per-
formances will be in English
with the exception of the eve
nings of October 18th and 18th.
These two nights will be spec
lal German Nights, with the
entire play spoken in the Ger
man language.

THEY ARE BACK AGAIN

With the hint of frost in the

For they are back on the
menu-oysters are. The first
Maryland oysters of the season
came in as usual in September
the first fall month with an
R in it. And they will stay in
until the months without an R
come back again.
In preparation for the oyster
season, the State Department
of Health, through the Bureau
of Food and Drugs, has sent a
circular letter to oyster pack
ers and to others engaged in
the oyster business, calling
their attention to the require
ments which must be met for
shucked and canned oysters, in
order that the product may be
accepted for sale or for ship
ment, within and without the
State. Strict compliance with
the minimum requirements of
the United States Public
Health Service and of the State
regulations will be necessary
in order to obtain a certificate.
Here are some extracts from
the letter which was signed by
Mr.. A. L. Sullivan, Chief of the
Bureau of Food and Drugs:
"No person should undertake
the shocking and shipment of
oysters unless prepared to in
stall the necessary equipment,
and operate his plant in ac-
cordance with the Public
Health requirements.
Packers must ship only oys-
tiers which are free from added
water and which have not been
adulterated by excessive wash
ing. Any other policy will be
ruinous to the industry.
"Oyster plants should be put
in first-class condition; floors
re-surfaced where necessary;
benches must be of approved
design and in good condition.
Where metal has become bad
ly rusted,, benches should be re-
covered and seams soldered.
Blocks must be removable.

Apparatus, including seal
ship cans and other returnable
cans, should be thoroughly
cleaned daily by the use of
brushes, hot water and wash
ing powder, then rinsed and
sterilized, Where no steam is

EARL CARROLL "vANITIEs"
New Ninth Edition Coming To
FOrd'S Theatre. Baltimore

The new ninth edition OF
Earl Carroll "Vanities" with
the original New York cast and
production is coming to Ford's
Theatre, Baltimore, for one
week beginning Monday, Octc~
Der II, with matinees Wednes-
day and Saturday. This is the
show which was produced in
New York last year and con-
tinued over seven months on
Broadway. Special attention
will be given to mail orders
from out-of-town patrons and
Ford's Theatre will insure the
best choice of seats to all those
who order by mail. The seen
ic production is massive and
the company numbers one hun
dred people. While on tour a
special train of four Pullmans
and four of the largest baggage
cars are required for transpor-
tation. Each season Earl Car
roll produces a new edition of
this annual revue and this is
the first time this company and
production have been seen in
Baltimore. With utter disre-
gard for expense Earl Carroll
has assembled some of the
worlds leading comedians to
create laughs, and a large
beauty chorus to grace the
"Vanities" with their fluffy
presence and some of these
girls are among the most beau
tiful in the world. 1t is a re-
vue not wanting in any depart
ment of amusement and it con-.
tains everything that is excel
lent in abundance. This bril-
liant potpourri is particularly
rich in comedy. There is plen-
ty of sparkle to the stage set
tings, gay in spangles, color
schemes and radiant beauty.
1t is guaranteed to keep the
most weary business man
awake. Staged in fifty-five
scenes, the show moves thru
a fast succession of comedy
scenes, dance ensembles and
specialties, song numbers, gor-
geous scenic spectacles and
brilliant and colorful light eff
fects.
In his principal comedians
Mr.. Carroll has the material
for royal good humor and he
makes excellent use of Al Ira
han, who has just returned to
this country from a tour of the
European capitals and his COM
mand performance for King
George in London. He has
also staged Mitchell and Du-
rant in various comedy sketch
es which give full scope to the
hilarious and ridiculous antics
of this pair of vigorous aero
batic comedians. The featur-
ed dancer is Lucille Page
whose dance with the pre-his-
tOric DinOSaur is an outstand-
ing sensation. The Outstand-
scenic features are "The Pre-
historic Curtain" over three
hundred feet in length, a mag
nificent staging of Ravel's fam
GUS Bolero and the first Neon
electric curtain ever used on
the stage.
The song hits include "Have
a Heart" and TITS Great to be
in Love" which were popular
on Broadway last season and
my Darling" Masquerade"
and II Guess l will Have to
Change My Plans," now cur
rent and popular in New York.
