SHOWS BENEFIT CROP
IN TALBOT COUNTY

The truth of the ancient adage re-
garding ell wind" is demonstrated by
the recent snow storms which spread
it's blanket heavily throughout Talbot
county. Even though it did great deal
of damage to property, and isolated
this section from the rest of the coun-
try for several hours, reports show
that it has filled the springs, swelled
the streams and drenched the parched
soils so that they may be properly
cultivated and planted, and give early
Spring crops a good start towards ma
turity. The precipitation throughout
this immediate vicinity was great
enough to relieve the anxiety of land
owners over the fear that there would
be no abatement in the drought for a
considerable time.
Farmers, on the other hand, have
cause for rejoicing, for once such a
prolonged spell of abnormal weather is
broken. Nature is likely to return to
her more equitable distribution of
moisture and sunshine.
1t is estimated that the snow has
contributed the equivalent of thousands
of dollars to the prospective Spring
crops in Talbot and there is hope that
a weather observer who declared one
season of drought is likely to be fol-
lowed by another has made mistake
in his conclusions.

SOMERSET FARMER HAS
WIRE GRASS DESTROYER

Farmers consider wire grass the
worst plant pest with which they have
to contend. A pest that thrives only
on the warmest and richest loan soil,
it reaches it's best development on the
lower Eastern Shore on the fertile
farms along the Potomac, Wicomico
and Nanticoke rivers, which rank with
the highest producing land for ber-
ries, beans and tomatoes, that can be
found in the United States.
Until recently the Short farmers
depended on the old fashion fluke har-
row and brakes and the one-horse
pillow in the cultivation of row crops
on wire grass infected land, with very
poor success.
A Somerset county farmer, Mr..
Robert S. Wiles, on his Wicomico riv-
er farm last season introduced and
demonstrated the famous bull-nose cul
tivator. as used in the Southern cot
ton and tobacco fields. Mr.. Wiles
formerly lived at North Wilkesboro,
N. c., where he became familiar with
the two-shovel Bull-nose, and believed
that the tool that kept cotton and to-
bacco fields clear of weeds in Dixie
would operate successfully against the
Eastern Shore wire grass.
The results in his tomato and corn
fields demonstrated it's worth and now
its fame has spread and hardware
dealers report good demand for that
type of cultivator by Shore farmers.

TOWNSEND AWARDED
$1,000 FOR AUTO INJURIES

Damages in the amount of $1,000
were awarded to John d. Townsend,
in the Wicomico Circuit Court against
E. Walton Toadvine.
Townsend was injured last July
when Toadvine's automobile ran
amuck down the crowded sidewalk in
Salisbury. A score of people were in
jured, more or less seriously.
Toadvine faced a dozen damage
suits, and several charges of more
or less serious character were lodged
against him. Reckless driving; drunk
en- driving; failure to stop, ETC., are a
few of the charges.
The Townsend case is the first of
the damage suits to come to trial.

25 PER GENT
 OF VOTE CAST
 THIS FORENOON
Municipal Electio n Polls Open in Three Precincts
 Until 7 This Evening

Figures obtained at noon from the city's three precincts showed that slightly more than 25 percent of the registered electorate had balloted in the general municipal election being held today.
 Five hundred twelve of the rec ord-breaking 1898 persons who reg istered, had voted. This figure was interpreted optimistically as it was taken before large rush to the polls expected during the noon luncheon hour.
 The precinct stations opened at g. o'clock this morning and close at 2 o'clock tonight. Voting is be- ing done in the First Precinct at the apparatus room of City Hall; in the Second Precinct at Giovan- etti's store at Front and Main streets; and at the Third Precinct in the Home Grocery on Willough- by Avenue near Seventh Avenue.
 Expect Rush
 Political observers said that vot- ing probably would be heavy in the early hours of the afternoon, but would slack off during the celebration at the new Pacific AL aska Airways field. However, an- other final rush is expected around the dinner hour.
 Voting at the First Precinct at noon showed 246 ballots cast out of 975 registered; the Second Pre- cinct showed I'll out of 648; and the Third Precinct had 95 out ot 375.
 A mayor for a one-year term three councilfnen for a two-year term, and one School Board mem Der for a three-year term are be- ing chosen today from list of IA candidates.
 Tickets
 Asking reelection as mayor is 1sadore Goldstein, heading the Economy Ticket which includes holdover councilmen as follows: Art McKinnon, William J. Beck and George B. Rice.
 The Citizens Ticket has c. H MacSpadden as mayoralty candi- date, and Alfred Dishaw, Mike E Monagle, and G. E.. Krause as councilmen bidders.
 The Progressive Labor Ticket is headed by Charles L. Crozier, back ed by Mel L. Heard, John R. Mon- agle and Walluf A. Rasmussen as councilmanic aspirants.
 Boggan Independent
 Garland Boggan is an indepen- dent candidate for mayor. He has no councilmanic running mates.
 Walter P. Scott is unopposed for school director.

PRAISE GIVEN NEW ROUTE BY
 PAA PILOTS
Barrows and Robbins Both Have Many Years Fly
 ing Experience

After jointly surveying the Ju- neau- Fairbanks route which will be inaugurated today by the Pacific Alaska Airways, Joe Barrows, Act ing Divisional Engineer with the company, and s. E. Robbins, vet eran pilot with the company, ex- pressed the opinion that it is a very feasible route and should prove an excellent air line to the Interior of Alaska. They also ex- pressed great satisfaction over the location of the airport in Juneau, said conditions of wind are good as is the freedom from obstacles on the long approaches and the condition of the field itself.
 We both believe that the com pany has the very finest type of airplane for this service and that the dual motors and high flying speed of the Lockheed Electra makes for maximum of safety and comfort" MT. Barrows said.
 Aviation History
 Acting Divisional Engineer Bar rows, who is piloting the Lockheed Electra on its first scheduled trip to Fairbanks this afternoon, has had a total of five thousand, two 11rndro1 and a;obfy-npa hoaIY.c f1V- ing time since learning to fly in the latter part of 1919 at the old Cecil de Mile Field in Los An- geles.
 Previous to coming to Alaska in 1880, Barrows had varied ex- perience in flying, doing the barn. storming, flying school, instruct ing that aviators turned to before aviation became a recognized ad- vance in commercial transportation and the establishment of compan- ies maintaining regular scheduled operations.
 For four years after completing his course in Los Angeles he did transforming and in 1924 began instructing in his own flying school in Southern California. Later he sold out his school and went into Crescent, Oregon, where he oper- ated a fishing and hunting resort, flying sportsmen into the resort from the coast. After a short time he also sold that business and in 1925 began flying the Los Angeles San Diego airline. During 1927 and 1928 he was in charge of contract forest patrol in California from Bakersfield to the Oregon line and during the same period he was identified with the Fairchild Aerial Surveys and was pilot on a map ping plane for the Fairchild com pany.

"All aboard for Fairbanks, White horse, Nome and waye ports; that announcement of scheduled air. plane stops marks a great, an un- usual occasion in Juneau's history and heralds an era that is destined to overcome the barriers of water and forest. of mountain ranges and tundra expenses that geographical ly isolate us from our town and other peoples" said R.

 "The citizens or Juneau and the members of the Chamber of Com merce were privileged indeed to have had a hand, even though 1t were small, in bringing about the selection of this Site as an import ant airport of the Pacific Alaska Airways far flung air service.

BRITISH POLISH CONFERENCE IN WARSAW BEGINS
Hint Poles Propose Change in League of Nations
 New Pact Scheme

WARSAW, April 2.--Capt. An thony Eden, British Lord Privy Seal, began conversations today with Polish statesmen, who, it was hinted by the semi-official Gazette Bolska, may propose changes in the League of Nations.
 It is assumed conversations will amplify views 'of leaders on the new proposal for allaying the mu- tual distrust among European na- tions.
 The scheme might take the form of a renewed eastern Europe se- curity pact that would satisfy Po- lands preferences for limited agreement, meet Germany's opposi- ticn with a mutual assistance clause and soothe Russian fear re- garding the Polish-German inten- tions.
