Many Fine Cattle And
Sheep On Exhibition This
Week At Livestock Show

Continued from page
An interesting account of his re-
cent visit to Maryland, where he
inspected some of the beef cattle
herds, was written by Frank Rich
ards, of Chicago, for his paper, the
Chicago Daily Drovers Journal,
Mr.. Richards article in part,
reads as follows:
We had to rush to catch our
train at Baltimore, but had to stop
in and see the commercial herd of
James Clark, Ellicott City. This is
a Briarcliff foundation and were
a mighty pleasing lot. Mr.. Clark
was away and we did not meet him
but found Mrs. Clark very enthus-
iastic about the cattle. This was
also true about most of the women
we met on this trip. They were
fully as much interested as their
men folk. l was sorry that could
not have stayed longer and met
more of these breeders.
George Mobley, Laytonsville, has
one of the old Maryland Angus
herds. We never saw better pas
lures than we found on this place
and we don't know when we have
seen a herd of cows that come
nearer filling our eye. Another son
of Evaxcus is in service here. We
forgot to mention that one of the
few real sons of Blackcap Revo-
luton, Revolution 18th, was at the
head of the Monocacy herd.
Foster Bros, Owings Mills, have
an Andelot foundation Of females,
headed by son of Imp. Evaxcu5
of Ballindalloch. They have steer
fitted for Baltimore this year that
is going to be in somebody's way.
Mushroom beds were starting to
yield and will supply the Baltimore
and Washington markets
H. H. Hackney, FinksDurg, has a
select group of ten heifers from
Andelot. They are headed by a
grandson of Evaxcus. This is one
Of the newer herds, but the right
kind of a start has been made.

LETTER BOX
Old Timer Says He
Remains A Democrat

To the Editor of The Sentinel,
Dear Sir:
For several years l have been OPP
posed to many of the tactics adopted
by the Democratic administration in
Moltgomery County. For example, l
believe that number of appointments
have been unwisely made. l believe
that the county could have gotten
along without big liquor warehouse,
although the property is undoubtedly
well worth the cost and should event
ually pay for itself in office rent. l
have also found fault with the fact
that the Organization has run several
men for Office when they should be
doing manual labor or something en-
tirely harmless as far as county
politics is concerned.
I have consistently voted for both
anti-Democrats and Republicans,
while supporting few Organization
men. But, l shudder to think Of any
one voting the Fusion ticket when 1t
doesn't mean anything. Why did wide
awake G.. o. P. leaders permit them
selves to be led into this Fusion
snare? There is nothing to be gained.
Either the Republicans or the ants
will sooner or later fall into deep,
fathomless pit. The name "Fusion"
means nothing at all. Has not the
New York Fusion party melted away.
r. was afraid to nominate Fuslonlst,
Samuel Seabury, for Governor. The
Republicans went back to the same
old stand. Can anyone, who knows
notifies in this county, believe but for
minute that the Republicans will
not snill the ants overheard if they
sbould win in October? You are cith-
or a Democrat or Republican. If our
fathers voted to keep Montgomery
County Democratic so many years.
Univ should we (even though we dis
like E. Brooke Lee) vote for RepuD-
lican control. I have been Democrat
all Of nv life. I have, for the past
several years voted anti in the prim.
arv would have done so again II
there had been a primary election
Put 7 remember the old Peter families
the old Bouic families, the host OF
others who always had their primary
spats but who got together in the
general election. I shall vote against
the Fusion party because it means
nothing and should be repudiated by
every follower Of Roosevelt.
An Old Timer.

Duck Hunters Must
Get Federal Stamps

The Federal law now provides that
every person hunting waterfowl, over
the age of sixteen years, must first
procure a Federal duck hunting
stamp. The money from the sale of
these stamps is to be used for the
purchase of migratory bird refugees.
The stamps are on sale at one dol
lar each at all post offices in towns OF
$500 population or more, in county
seats and in certain other localities.
