When Mr.. Gatlln gazed upon thai

In his agony, the words of the poem

With buds of roses In your hair and

He sold his retail shoe business and
placed all of his assets In a trust fund,

death. He saved out of this trust
fund, however. ten thousand dollars,
with which he purchased a letter of

Body Needs Supply Of Salts
When Planning Meals, 1t Must Be Remembered Tha,
Phosphorus, Working With Calcium, Pro-
vides the Material Required.

Phosphorus is the n Of the three
minerals for which we must take
most thought when planning meals.
Phosphorus works with calcium to
supply the salt which make the bones
and teeth strong and sturdy.
These two minerals are so inter
twined that 1t is not only necessary
to have a full quota of each, but to
have each in such a proportion that
1t balances the other. In the absence
of this the skeleton of the body may
grow normal in size but not in
strength, and the consequence of this
lack is bowed legs and other bone
deformities.
Phosphorus Is also a necessary
contribution to every cell In the
body, but is especially important in
the nerve cells. Perhaps this Is
what led to the ancient superstition
that phosphorus stimulated the brain
II is. however, a factor in the utiliza-
ton of food and in maintaining the
neutrality of the blood stream. BY
weight we need about twice as much
phosphorus as calcium. Children
need a large supply of both of these
minerals, Of course, because of de-
mand upon food to build new struc
ture. A mother dIrhagg tie fHeHth
before the birth Of the child, and
while she Is nursing him. will also
need an extra supply. If this is not
supplied she may show the effect of
the lack through the breaking down
of her teeth. If, for any reason, she
cannot take plenty of food rich in
these minerals. she may take certain
salts which are more or less effec-
tive.
The foods which supply phosphor-
us most literally are milk, cheese,
eggs, vegetables, nuts, some of the
fruits, and whole cereals. All but
the latter are sources of calcium to
a greater or less extent. Among
vegetables, navy beans, carrots, len
ills and sweet potatoes are high,
Among fruits we find peaches, ba-
nanas, grapefruit, oranges, pineapple,
prunes and berries at the head of the
list.
The quality of minerals in foods Is
not affected to any large extent by
cooking, If the proper methods are
used. One of the reasons for cook,
ing vegetables in very little water Is

to preserve the mineral content
which may be partly drawn out into
the liquid. A small amount may be
lost by the heating of milk during
pasteurization, but the amount Is
negligible If the daily ration of milk
is plentiful.
A shortage of either calcium or
phosphorus, a poor balance between
them or the lack of yitamin d, which
has the property of stimulating the
deposit of these minerals in the
bones, may result in ricketts,, mild or
acute. A mild form of ricketts, is not
uncommon among children. while
acute ricketts, attack undernourished
children, especially those who are not
exposed to the sun. Children in fam

him the maximum Of suffering rather

VIRGINIA SPUD FARMERS
SEEK BETTER PRICES

Potato farmers on the Eastern
Shore went on a strike last week in a
desperate effort to better the prices
offered for their potatoes which have
been dropping each day, despite the
fact that not enough potatoes are
going to market to supply the demand.
On Wednesday the price was as low
as $1.25, or about rs cents less than
the cost of production.
A crowd estimated at 400 to 500
assembled at Central High at Painter
Wednesday night to see what could be
done about it. At the meeting which
was presided over by George A. Fow-
Ter, a potato grower of Shadyside,
with Milton T. Hickman, of Painter,
acting as secretary, resolution was
adopted that the farmers would refuse
to ship any more potatoes unless given

LAND IS CONDEMNED
FOR CANAL WIDENING

Proceedings to condemn fifty-one
parcels of land in Cecil county, in
connection with the deepening and
widening of the Chesapeake and Della
ware Canal were instituted in the
United States District Court at Balti-
more.
The suits were instituted by Ber-
nard J. Flynn, United States District
Attorney and decree was signed by
Judge w. Calvin Chestnut giving the
owners of the various parcels until
July 20 to show cause why the pro-
perty should not be condemned.
According to C. Ross McKendrick,
Deputy District Attorney, who drew
up the papers, provisions of the Rivers
and Harbors Act give the War De-
partment authority to take possession
of the property to be condemned i'm
mediately after the date of the hear
ing.
The District Attorney for the Dis
trict of Delaware had taken similar
action toward condemnation of pro-
perty along the canal route in Della
ware.
The canal will be excavated to pro-
vide a depth of twenty eight feet and
will be widened to $50 or 300 feet.
According to Mr.. McKenrick, the War
Department has completed it's sur
veys, and is believed to be ready to
start work on the project as soon as
the property has been acquired.
Although the complete project is ex-
pected to cost $12,5OO,OOO, an initial
ALLEGATION of SIS, 1O7, 900 has been made
for starting the undertaking.

FROM OUR
EXCHANGES
POLITICS CHARGED IN
NICE APPOINTMENTS

In a statement charging disregard
of the seafood industry, disavowal OF
campaign promises, and terming the
appointments political salve," Rep
resentative Joseph w. A. Evans on
last Wednesday attacked Governor
Nice's three-men Conservation Com
mission.
The Commission as named recently
by Governor Nice is comprised OF
Judge Robert F. Duer, of Somerset
County, DR.. ]. Hubert Wade, of Wash
ington County, and Frank L. Bentz,
of Hagerstown.
Governor Nice in making his ap-
pointments disergarded all sugges-
tions of the seafood industry" Mr..
Evans said, land promises made prev
ious to his election"
"There is nothing in his appoint
ments to enthuse either the oyster
men, the packers, or the seafood indus
try as WHOLE" Queen Anne's Rep
resentative in the House of Dele
gates charged.
eve do not question the intelligence,
honesty or sincerity of the new Con-
servation Commission" Mr.. Evans
said, "but it appears to me and all
clear thinking people that at least one
member of the group should have been
a man with a thorough knowledge OF
the seafood industry.
"The Governor in his campaign
throughout the tidewater counties pro-
missed faithfully that thorough re-
organization of the Conservation De-
partment would be made with the ap-
pointment of practical men to the
Board.
"This was just political salve to Sc
cure votes" Evans charged.
"The seafood industry was never in
a more critical condition than at pres
ent. Our oyster rocks are near deple-
ton. Our seed areas are rapidly be-
ing destroyed.
"But proper judgment on the part
of the Governor would have assisted
greatly in restoring Maryland to her
proper position in the seafood indus
try.
Governor Nice, however, elected to
follow in the footsteps of so many po-
litical leaders, and has paid off poll
teal debts regardless of consequences"
Mr.. Evans saw only one ray Of
hope in the appointments and that was
for the physical condition of the fish
and crustaceans themselves. "There is
only one consolation in behalf of the
fish, oyster, and crab," he pointed
out. eff at any time during the pres
ent boards administration they should
suffer any ailments or need legal ad-
vice, the Commission is capable of
rendering assistance with Judge as
Chairman and two doctors as assis-
tants."

Survey ORDERED FOR
GREAT ROCK, TANGIER

Conservation Commissioner Robert
F. Duer has issued instructions to the
Commissioners Engineer, Mr.. H. E..
Collins, to survey a part OF Great
Rock, in Tangier Sound, which will be
set aside for experimental work in
shell planting under the supervision
of the Commission.
A reasonable amount if shells will
be used with the expectation that they
will have a good strike of spat, and
demonstrate the effectiveness of shell
planting alone without the planting
of seed oysters near by. It is con-
sidered too late to plant the seed
oysters, but is just the proper time
to plant shells, as the water is full
of the oyster spawn now, and it IS
probable that on Great Rock the
shells will soon be literally covered
with the young oysters.
Shells will also be planted in other
sections of the States waters, and
close contact kept with the way the
shells catch the spawn, the rate OF
growth, mortality ,etc.
The new Conservation Commission
er is showing an aggressive spirit to-
ward and real determination to re-
habilitate the oyster industry in the
State, and his efforts, combined with
those of the oyster packers, tongers
and dredgers, should show splendid
results.
This work of the State is separate
and apart from the action begun last
week when a campaign was launched
to secure for Maryland and especially
for Somerset county, government
funds with which to plant shells and
seed oysters to rehabilitate the oys-
ter industry, leading business houses
and individuals, and the Chamber OF
Commerce of Crisfield have sent tele-
grams to United States Senators Mil
lard E. Tydings and George L. Rad
cliffe, and to Congressman I. Alan
Goldsborough, asking their assistance
in obtaining the funds Immediately.
The Conservation Commission, how
ever, is carrying forward a much
more extensive shell planting and oy-
ster seed planting program for next
year than is possible because of the
lateness of the season at this time.
Commissioner Duer hopes to sup
plement the State appropriation OF
100000 for shell and seed planting
in 1886 by Federal grant of an equal
or larger amount, which would make
a quarter of million dollars avail
able next year and which would go far
to re-establish the depleted oyster
rocks of this State.
The Federal funds would be used
largely for the cost of labor, in shell
and seed planting operation, and that
money expended in the restocking of
barren oyster beds would go further
to make Maryland watermen self
supporting in the future than it would
be possible by Federal expenditure in
any other way.
Washington officials have viewed
with favor the Maryland oyster plant
ing program and have given every in
dication that they will act favorably
upon the matter, in which case the
Chesapeake Bay county will see next
year the greatest rehabilitation sched-
ule put into effect that has ever been
inaugurated in this State.
