GARRETT LEADS IN OATS
PRODUCTION in MARYLAND
Census Shows So Percent of To-
tai Produced Heretofore Farms
Are Owned BY Operators
POTATO INDUSTRY GAINS

Garrett county had the largest
acreage and production of oats in
1884 of any county in the State, ac-
cording to the 1885 Federal Farm
Census preliminary report released
this week by Director William L. Aus
tin, Bureau of the Census, Depart
ment of Commerce.
In 1884 Garrett county had 80 per-
cent of all the acreage from which
oats were threshed in Maryland and
produced 35 percent of the total oat
crop in the State.
Another interesting fact revealed
by the census report is that larger
proportion of the persons who operate
farms own all or part of their farms
in Garrett county than in any other
county in the State. Of the 1899
farms, 1,72O, or Sc percent are owned
wholly, or in part, by their operators.
An expansion in the acreage of
Irish potatoes during the last five
years made Garrett the second largest
potato producing county in the state
in 1884. Although Worcester and
Baltimore counties had a larger
acreage in 1884, only Worcester, with
779,274 bushels, exceeded the produc-
ton of 511, $50 bushels in Garrett.
A gain of 81 percent in cows during
the last five years indicates some ex-
pansion in dairying in this county.
Garrett, with 1875, had a larger
number of sheep than any other coun-
ty, except Queen Anne's.
These figures are preliminary and
subject to revision, it was stated.
Other interesting figures were CIV
en-. The number of farms was 1899,
valued at 1921, 652, consisting of
238,825 acres. The average acreage per
farm was 1875, the average value
per farm $3,137; the average value
per acre, $26.26. Horses and ~celts
on farms, 1927; cattle, 1859; sheep,
1875, almost 900 less than in the
1880 census.
Selected crops harvested-c orn,
143,747 bushels; wheat threshed, Co.,
STA bushels; oats threshed, 330,563
bushels; barley threshed, 1891 bush
els; rye threshed, 6,240 bushels; all
hay and sorghums for forage, 1865
tons.

Woods Full of Hunters as SOUR
rel Season Opens

The woods have been practically
filled with hunters since the squirrel
season came in on Tuesday. More
than 1000 hunting licenses have been
issued by the Clerk of the Circuit
court, many of these seeking permits
getting them within the past week.
Two clerks have been kept busy con-
stantly issuing the slips and receiv-
ing the SIPS for each one.
With the woods so full it would ap-
pear that the squirrels wouldn't have
a chance to survive. but according to
some of the tales reaching Oakland,
there will still be plenty for next
saseon. Veteran hunters returned
home empty handed, while the rain
interviewed to give the squirrels a
break for one day at least.

ON COFFMAN-FISHER JOBS
After COnfessing His Part We'd
nesday He Makes Clean Breast

William McIntire, Negro of Fair
mont, who confessed last week to pull
ing the first Coffman-Fisher Com
pany robbery in Oakland, continued to
"spill the beans" to county officers and
arrest of several other persons is ex-
pected to result.
McIntire was forced to surrender to
1. R. Rudy, manager of the store, when
cornered in the rear of the Miller
building after he had entered the Coff-
man-Fisher store for the purpose of
robbery and from which he fled when
discovered by local police officers. He
was shot in the foot by Officer B. B.

away with six suitcases full of cloth
ing during the first robbery and hid
ing them at a point along the railroad
tracks and returning here for the
goods the following night.

Their confessions, warrants have been
issued for the arrest of three people
in a West Virginia city who are al
legged to have been connected with the
robberies in some way. McIntire first

TRIO OF GYPSIES FRISK
AGED COUPLE IN SWANTON
Charged With Extracting SIS
From Mr.. and Mrs. B. SweitZer

A trio of gypsies, who gave their
names as Frank Cannon, Mary Can
non and Rosie Stevens, of Detroit,
were brought to the county Jail here
last night after being arrested at
Keyser, w. Va.
The arrests were made following
report from Swanton that they had
held up Mr.. and Mrs. Bonnie Sweitz-
err, aged Swanton residents, and had
robbed them of $500. The gypsies
denied the charge, telling States At
torney Neil C. Fraley that they hadn't
been to Swanton.
1t was alleged that the two women
had entered the Sweitzer home while
the man remained in the car with a
small child. Both Mr.. and Mrs.
Sweitzer are more than 80 years old
and the former is blind and almost
helpless, and was lying on the bed at
the time.
Delivering an order to the home,
Arthur Reckner discovered that the
gypsies had just left. He notified
Arthur Green who gave chase as far
as Deer Park, where it was learned
the automobile had headed for Kitz-
miller. He phoned authorities at Oak
land who called Kitzmiller just after
they had pulled out of that town.
They then called Keyser and authori-
ties there picked them up. The gyp-
sizes were travelling under Georgian
license.
