National Affairs

Generally speaking, it is not within
the province of a country correspond
ent to attempt to fill his space with
other than merely local news, but in
these times, when the whole peoples
are more or less scared by the scorch-
ing results of the past three years, the
doings, or lack of doings, of the Con-
gress becomes news to the citizens
of Mt. Lake Park just the same as
it does to the people of Maine or
California. In other words no major
bill can be acted upon by the national
House or Senate that does not direct
" affect the people of this small COM
munity. We have the right, therefore,
to commend or to criticize. And dur
ing the past week our safety valve has
been at the popping-off point because
of what seems to US the almost crimi-
nal obstruction of the legislative
wheels by the filibuster of the King
fish Senator. If the old rules of the
Senate are such that an asinine ex-
hibition by one of the members can
not be checked, then those rules should
be amended so that important relief
and other measures can be enacted
into laws.
While this fiddling while Rome
burns attitude is being maintained by
the fve-day speech of the members,
the rest of the country suffers.
But there is another class of citi-
zens, in contrast, to whom all honor
is due. We speak Of the welfare
workers. Paid workers, and volun-
teers are laboring day and night to
relieve distress, to check the pangs
of hunger in literally millions of
human beings. These together with
the generous ones who furnish the
money, food and clothing, are the ones
who will save this country from
itself, for hungry people are dam
gerous people.

POTATO DISPLAY ONLY
TYPICAL OF WORK HERE
Some of Entries Shown Won
HOnOrs Here and in State Show

The display of rural russell pota-
toes shown in the picture on this
page is only typical of the type of
work being done in Garrett county
by All club boys, DR.. R. A. Jehle,
pathologist for the University of
Maryland Extension service, stated.
The particular potatoes shown in
the picture are some that carried off
honors at the annual Garrett county
potato show held in Oakland during
the fall, and were grown by the same
persons who carried off honors in the
statewide show at Baltimore early
in January.
According to DR.. Jehle, the work
of the club boys has had a beneficial
effect upon the potato industry in
Garrett county. Before this work
was begun the quality of seed stock
used by the great majority of
farmers was below average and very
little certified seed was produced in
the county. When the boys began to
get such good yields, many of them
strikingly larger than those obtained
by their neighbors and fathers, the
older heads became interested. AS
result there has been no trouble in
selling their potatoes for seed, about
1000 bushels having been disposed
of in this manner the first year, 5000
bushels the second year and 5000
bushels in 1882.
DR.. Jehle says that many of the
club boys get yields of 275 bushels
to the acre and a few have obtained
more than 400 bushels. This is quite
a contrast to the old 100 bushel
yields obtained formerly.
Five new certified seed potato
clubs were organized the past year
in Garrett county, and tifty-nlne
fields with total of 100.75 acres,
were certified in the county as COM
pared with 43 fields and total OF
61.75 acres in 1881.
The vocational agricultural depart
ments of the various high schools have
cooperated in this work.

NJ. E. Church Anniversary

The plans for the celebration of the
fiftieth anniversary of the founding of
the Mt. Lake Park Methodist church
are not yet completed. We know it
will be an interesting event and many
long forgotten historical items will
be gathered for publication. The his
tory of this church is practically the
history of the Park. Rev. Middaugh
has promised us these facts for publ
cation in the next issue. We have in
mind many, both permanent residents
and those who are summer visitors,
who will delight in having recalled to
memory events connected with the
early history of the Park, and espec-
tally the church they and their parents
attended. We have named Rev. Mid
daugh as the promisee, so if you fail
to find the items here next week, you
will know where the responsibility
lies. We may say, however, that at
least twenty voices, mostly young
people, responded to the practice call
at the parsonage Tuesday evening,
and from what we know of the pro-
gram it will be really worth while.
Night Proving
Bailiff Wiley is usually an even
tempered man, but with him patience
has ceased to be a virtue. There is
too much night prowling in the Park
and too many houses being entered.
Evidence of the guilty parties is not
going to be hard to secure, if the
depredations continue: Some of the
young men of the Park, of the better
class and of good standing, have de-
termined that the good name of this
community for law and order, must be
upheld. And they are in earnest. If
the States Attorney gets the goods
on the guilty-well, it will really be
too bad.

SLEEP MALADY

ST.TOUIS, Mo, Sept. 9 I.N.S)
Total deaths in the sleeping sick
ness epidemic stood at SO today
as research scientists announced
the first forward step in their
search for the medium Of trans
mission among human beings.
Eleven deaths in a 24-hour pc
riod challenged the corps Of labo-
ratory experts working to curb the
dreaded disease. A total Of 635
cases have been reported since the
epidemic began in late July.
That monkeys apparently have
been successfully inoculated with
the encephalitis germ was an
nounced in a report made by
Public Health Service and Wash
ington University physicians to
Surgeon General Hugh S. Cum
mingS.
The physicians next will at
tempt to establish the mode of
transmission in human beings by
attempts to spread the disease
from one animal to the others.
Six monkeys chosen for the ex-
pertinent we're inoculated with or
ganic matter from five patients
who subsequently died from the
disease. The animals developed

PAY GUT HANGS
ON LIVING COST

Official intimation from the
White House is that the failure
of the 1885 budget estimates to
carry any provision for contin-
uance Of the is per cent pay cut
has no significance, inasmuch as
the Budget Bureau must estimate
salaries on a full basis.
The fate Of the pay cut will de-
pend on the state of living costs.
If the latter advance during the
six-month period now in progress,
there presumably will be a reduc-
ton in the amount of the cut for
the next period.
Federal employees, however, in
tend to battle vigorously against
continuance of the pay cut. The
executive council Of the National
Federation of Federal Employees,
as final gesture following the
close Of the convention in Kan
sas City, has prepared an open
letter to President Roosevelt
urging restoration Of Federal
salaries.
This letter points out that the
100000 Government employees
constitute one of the largest
groups Of salaried workers in this
country, but that for most Of
them the economic crisis has
meant more work and less pay.
