ANNUAL CENTERVILLE
SHEEP DAY

Announcement is just made
by County Agent J. 2. Miller of
the Seventh Annual Purebred
Ram Show and Sale to be held
in eenterville, Queen Annes
County, on Saturday, July 18th.
Sheepmen are more enthusiast
cti than they have been for
years, due to the improvement
in lamb and wool prices. Those
in charge of this project are
expecting it to come up to the
mark of former years as one of
t h e outstanding livestock
events in this vicinity.
During the last six years
over 200 purebred rams have
been exhibited and disposed of
at the Centerville Show and
Sale. These have improved to
a marked degree the quality of
market lambs produced and the
amount and quality of wool
produced in this section.
Sheepmen point out that the
Eastern Shore never had as
good a reputation for it's mar
ket lambs as it has today.
They also state that the wool
clipped in flocks where good
purebred rams have been used
over a period of years has in
creased from an average of
about 5 pounds per head to
about s pounds per head. AT
present market prices. this has
resulted in each eve returning
about $1.00 more per year than
formerly.
The Show and Sale will be
held as usual in the shade Of
the trees on the Court House
Lawn. Sheepmen everywhere
are invited to attend.

RAGWEED, NOT GOLDEN
ROD CAUSES HAY
FEVER

Goldenrod, the floral outcast
to hay fever sufferers, has been
restored to good standing.
Ragweed, found in every
State, is the true culprit in
most hay fever cases, the Unit
led States Department of Agri-
culture says.
Instead of going to the
mountains to avoid hay fever,
the department urges sufferers
to organize campaigns to clean
up ragweeds before they bloom
and shed the yellow pollen
which causes autumn hay few
er. Goldenrod pollen, often
blamed by those with hay few
err, is in fact sticky, heavy
pollen that does not blow about
as ragweed pollen does. I'm
less one is very close to golden
rod, there is little chance of
his getting any of the pollen.
Of the hundreds of thousands
of autumn hay-fever cases in
the United States each year, 80
percent east of the Mississippi
River are caused by ragwood,
the Public Health Service says.
1t has approved the advice Of
NE Department to cut down
ragweed, as it has found that
persons only slightly subject to
hay. fever may escape entirely
if The quantity of pollen in the
air is reduced, and other cases
will be less severe. Two types
of ragweed are chiefly respon-
sible for autumn hay fever.
These are the common rag
weed, which grows about 2 feet
high, and the big rag-weed,
which grows as high as s to 10
feet. These are both annual
plants.
The Department suggests
cutting ragwood twice year
to prevent pollen forming.
The first cutting should be just
before the flowers form and
the second before the flowers
develop on the lowgrowing
branches which shoot out after
the first cutting. If cutting is
delayed until flower buds form
the pollen may develop after
the weeds are cut. In this case
burning the weeds may be nec-
esssary. Cutting ragweeds
along highways and on vacant
lots of cities and suburbs is es-
pecially important, the Depart
ment says.
Organized efforts by civic
clubs and similar organizations
in cities and towns and their
suburbs can substantially low
er the quantity of ragweed pol
len and reduce the number and
severity of hay fever cases.

HEY used to say, when a

Gus" or "a perfect picnic" which,
in those days, meant that the
party was something of a WOW.
Expressions come and go, lemon
ade-on-the-lawn becomes cocktails
on-the-roof, but the circus and
picnics are perennial.
So what could be nicer than a
circus picnic-and by that we
mean a picnic out in the open
with canvas big top-even If
it's just canvas stretched on four
poles-to keep off the sun, and a
bag of sawdust sprinkled under
foot, red and white checked table

tables that fairly grin, rather
than groan, with good foods of
the out-of-doors sort?
Anybody's Picnic
Maybe it's picnic for children,
to celebrate the close of school;
maybe it's a picnic for dignified
adolescents; or maybe it's picnic
for vivacious adults-it's the same
picnic anyway, for the circus
knows no age distinctions.
There should by all means be
a ring-master to crack the whip
and announce the various attrac-
tions--the guests all being part
of the cast. If the guests are
many, the affair can take on the
splendor of a three-ring circus,
