Bird Feed Patch

The time has arrived when a great
many Of our farmers are working
their corn crops for the last time
this season. For some years we have
advocated the 'bird food patch,
which has been adopted by thousands
of farmers in our State who have bene-
fitted from the establishment of this
patch by attracting birds to their
properties and by the birds destroy
ing obnoxious weed seeds and insects
The last working of corn is the time
to plant buckwheat. There are a great
many farmers who follow their corn
crop with wheat or barley. However,
there are thousands who do not. We
request those to seed small area of
buckwheat in the outer rows of their
cornfeld by working same in with
their cultivator or harrow at the time
the corn is being laid by. The bird
feed patch need not be large as the
best method is to seed strips either
through fields or around the edges.
1t is still not too late to seed buck
wheat, cowpeas, millet, sorghum,
kafir corn or black-eyed peas and
leave the same standing to furnish
cover and feed for our wildlife during
the coming winter season.
Practically every farmer or small
landowner of our State has a small
piece of land which could be used to
great advantage for the bird feed
patch. The expense is very small and
as 80 per cent of the diet of all birds
is obnoxious weed seeds and insect
life, the attraction of the birds to
your property greatly benefits you in
deriving a profitable investment from
their presence.
We recommend and request your
cooperation in planting a small area
or number of small areas on your
property in any of the above seeds or
grains recommended, leaving it stand
until the spring of 1884 to provide
cover and feed for wildlife during the
coming fall and winter and assure
you that beneficial results will be
obtained.

State Game Warden.

vival has gone far enough to convince
every one Of its solidity. If the adj
ministration has at last realized the
perils of it's initiation policy it may
learn how to avoid them in whole or
in part. But we doubt if it will find
threats and shudders helpful. AS a
matter of fact, swift rise in wages,
necessarily accompanied by swift
rise in wholesale and retail prices,
might easily start buyers strike
which would halt Commissar John
sons train indefinitely. The more
normal the course of the revival, in
short, the better its chances of con-
tinuing. The sooner the administra'
ton can find a way to halt imitation
and let nature take its course the
better.
Russia, even Russia, has found
threats an ineffective means Of rails
ing wheat, building cars and running
trains. We doubt if either threats or
shudders will work any better here.

Maryland to Get $3,564,527 For
Highway Building

Governor Albert C. Richie does not
favor proposals to spend any of the
States share of Federal relief road
money on the construction of super
highway across the State-for the
time being, at least.
Maryland is to get $3,564,527 of the
Federal road grants. The road COM
mission, according to present plans,
will spend 25 per cent of the money
in Baltimore,2 5 per cent for secondary
and feeder roads and so per cent for
the improvement of the Philadelphia
road, the Belair road and the Annap-
oils road, each project beginning at
the Baltimore City line, and to the
improvement of the Leonardtown-St.
Mary's City highway.

NOT WARRANTED

One notes in some of the state
ments sent out about the desire for
cooperation for recovery the intima-
ton tina tiff it is not successful ma
tional ruin will follow"
Such a declaration is without a
shred of warrant, unless Americans
are willing to admit that the entire
business foundation here is far weaker
than in any other land.
Look at the situation coldly. Re-
covery is under way in other lands,
all without departure from accepted
procedure. True, there is no extreme
advance. Wise leaders doubt the value
of sudden and tremendous gains. The
evil of such in the exchanges has al
ready been demonstrated.
If there is even a hint of weakness
in all that is being attempted now, it
is found in the fact that too much en-
phasis has been placed on what has al
ready been accomplished, also in
threats to those who may be dis
posed to deal with their business as
in times past, because of the degree
of uncertainty remaining as to the
future.
No person with recollection of eX-
periences in other times of reaction
will talk of universal disaster" or
national ruin" Only those of little
faith will continue to be fearful. Only
those who have some special individ-
ual purpose in mind will predict dis
aster if their proposals are not ac-
copied.
These are things to remember. AL
so one may recall that just such "sure
ruin" was predicted back in 1887,
again in 1857, once more in 1875 and
in the free silver experience of 1898.
Only the World War saved the nation
from similar predictions for 1914.
The real gain in these times over all
other disastrous periods is the inn
mensely increased disposition to CO.
operate and to work with others for
the good of all. Evidence of such is
found on all sides. And it is great
gain, of itself alone.

BY THREATS AND SHUD-
DERS

Commissar Richberg threatened the
nation with communism in his New
York speech. Now Commissar John
son threatens it with a collapse"
He said: "If we can't come along
here with increased purchasing power
to support that higher production, l
shudder to think what will happen.
This country can't stand a new col
lapse"
Both of these efforts reveal jumpi-
ness of nerves in administration
circles which in a less substantial
country might well produce the very
panic which Commissar johnson seeks
to avoid Nevertheless the symptoms
are to be rated as helpful rather than
alarming. For they apparently repre-
sent the end of the innocent faith of
the "brain trust" in initiation as sort
of automatic prosperity maker which
any child can handle.
Rumor has credited the President
with sharing this optimistic view. He
is said to have been persuaded by his
professors that initiation could be
easily controlled and that there was
nothing to worry about. Keep on
smiling, get the country to singing
Happy days are here again." and in
f1ation will take care of itself.
The fact is that there have been
for months solid grounds for believing
that the turn had come in the world
depression and that this country,
along with the others, was due to
see demand, production and employ
ment increase and prices rise. I'm
questionably, therefore, part of the
recent spectacular rise on the stock
and grain markets has reflected a
genuine and normal revival. But how
large a part? To this normal pro-
gress has been added the artificial
stimulus of an initiation threat, and as
a result nobody knows just how much
is sold and how much is not.
The worry that has suddenly seized
the administration has apparently
come from a sudden realization of this
situation. Commissar johnson plain
ly fears that unless wages are boosted
swiftly in line with the speculative
rocketing of prices the bottom will
drop out of his boom.
Fortunately the country's nerves
are in an excellent state, and the re-

NEW DEBT TALKS
SCHEDULED TODAY
Acheson Says Discussions
With British Expected to
Continue for Some Time.

BY the Associated Press.
British and American negotiators
scheduled new debt talks for today,
hopeful that their meeting with Presi-
dent Roosevelt might help to show the
way out of what had appeared to be a
blind alley.
The negotiations have been under way
nearly a month No definite achieve
ments had been reached, and there
were reports which could not be downed
that the discussions were about to end.
But after an hour -and-a- half meeting
at the White House, Undersecretary
Acheson of the Treasury said that an
other meeting of conferees would be
held today and that he expected the
negotiations to continue for consider
able time.
A White House statement said this:
This was a conference on the sub
ject of the debt settlement-a continu-
alton of the discussion. The discussions
will be continued. There was nothing
at all final"
The conferees today still confronted a
situation which had appeared to them
to be meeting between the old ire
sistible force and the immovable object.
On the one hand was a continuing
popular British demand that payments
cease: on the other, the American ad-
ministration's belief that Congress,
which has the last say, still wants the
debts paid in full.
Involved in the talks was about So
0OO, 100000, representing the British
debt of $4,000, 100000 plus interest over
the next 81 years.
