KENT co. FARMER is
CHARGED WITH ASSAULT

A charge that he had molested 4

NAL last week from John Newcomb,
5e-year-old father of several children
The Kent county farmer was held in
Jail in lieu of $4,000 bond, set as
hearing before Magistrate William A.
Wheatley, Chestertown. Asserting ne
was innocent of the charges against
him, he sought to engage an attorney
to represent him.
Sheriff John N. Bennett, of Kent
county, who arrested Newcomb, said
the child involved was Helen Beck,
young daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. John
Beck, of Rock Hall, and that the al
legged offense occurred on Friday last
At the hearing Newcomb said ne
had tried to carry the child across a
stream near her home, but firmly de-
MED he had harmed her. Sheriff Ben
nett said the child had slight bruises
on her legs, but he did not believe
she had been attacked.

money by Congress for public works

it is believed that sum will be set
aside for beginning the work on the
canal.
G. Harry Pouder, executive vice.

effort to have the project begun, said
that Senator-elect George L. Rad

to those working elsewhere either as
to quantity or size. The watermen are
faring very poor, and even if they
could catch greater quantity the
prices are low and the net income
would be small.
Not so many years ago large fleet
of dredge boats made their headquar-
tiers at the lower end of Tilghman's
Island. Here they would stock up
their pantries, lay in supplies for a
week, and on the following Saturday
come back again. The Choptank and

of dredge boats at work while now,
according to this informant, they are
not to be seen.

TALBOT co. OYSTERS ARE
INFERIOR IN QUALITY

Talbot oysters are in poor shape
both as to quality and quantity. When
the dredging season opened, the dred-
ge boats heretofore seen in the bay
off Talbot shore line were conspicu-
Gus by their absence. Not a dredge
boat is to be seen, said one of the
oyster inspectors, where in former
years they were here in great num-
bers. Asked where they are work
ing, he replied that they are up the
bay and in other sections of the state
where oysters are in better shape.
The tongers are also working in
other sections of the state, the oysters
being very poor in Talbot. Talbot
packers are buying some of their stock
in other sections, having the bivalves
brought here by truck and boats.
Tongers are receiving from 20 to 30
cents bushel for their oysters, while
the dredge stock is bringing around
45 cents. One waterman was asked the
condition Of the oyster business and
he replied that it was the worst seen
in many years. Worse than last year,
he said, for the oysters are small and
poor. The Potomac River sees many
Talbot oystermen at work there for
the old reliable rocks Of the county in
the past are not so prolific this year.
Of course there are oyster tongers

MOSQUITO DITCHING FAV-
ORABLE TO MUSKRATS

Formerly abandoned muskraC
marshes were again productive during
the present season, due to reclama-
ton by mosquito control ditching, ac-
cording to a report submitted to De-
Verne Doty of Broadkill Neck, musk
rat specialist of the Mosquito Con-
troll Commission.
Since the area bordering the SOU
thern shore of the Broadkill River
was ditched by CCC Mosquito Control
workers, a year ago, several large
acreages of varying types of muskrat
marsh have been kept under careful
observation by Mr.. Doty, to determine
the exact effects of the ditching on
these valuable fur bearing animals.
According to the report, one 18 acre
plot, on which muskrats were plenti-
full up to 1928, was inundated with
four feet of water, by storm in the
spring of that year, and many of the
rats, and all of their houses, des-
troyed. Another storm in the au-
tumn of 1919 similarly despoiled the
marsh and each time the salt water
Law several feet deep for more than
a week. AS a result the report says
in the spring of 1880, the old grass
es seemed dead, and new grasses did
not spring up. The storms had clog
ged the entirely inadequate natural
bitches, and year after year the plot
became more completely "lost" to the
owner. This represented serious
loss of annual income that the owner
had formerly gained from sales Of
muskrat pelts.
Mr.. Doty's latest observations, how
ever, are that, "with the relief of the
stagnant condition by the mosquito
control ditching, the ideal muskrat
feed, three-square grass, has returned
in ever-increasing abundance. The
rats are starting back on this plot,
and by next year the marsh looks as
though it will be solid with three
square grass and the owners will have
reaped good harvest of pelts this
year land each year will get better"
The report further points out that
over 70R of the musckrat houses on
the reclaimed marshes have been To-
Gated along the banks Of the new
mosquito control bitches, using the
excavated sod to build on, and having
the bitches handily at their front door
to operate in.
The report concludes with state
ment of the finding that, the rats
want water, but they want pure wa
ter, we'll distributed over the marsh
IN restricted channels. The water

Plan Health Resorts in
Land of Northern Lights

Moscow.-Because of the health
full qualities of cold, pure arctic
air and northern mineral waters,
the Soviet government is consider
ing the establishment of health re-
sorts in the land of the northern
lights.
Such a plan, quite in contrast to
the usual theory that health resorts
should be located in warm, sunny
lands, Is recommended by DR.. A. L.
Shishkina, a Soviet woman special
ist on health resorts, who was sent
to the Arctic by the government to
select sites for a sanitarium.
Shishkina, who has just returned
from her explorations, recommend
ed two sites. One of them was on
the shores of the Pomorskaya bay,
an arm of Matthew's strait, rum
ming through the Arctic island Of
Nova Zembla. The other was on
the northwestern coast of the same
island.
81 have discovered exceptional
possibilities for medicinal baths in
Nova Zembla," Shishkina said. Il
found the water there very useful
in treating arctic scurvy and amaze
mia. In the future persons with
tuberculosis or faulty metabolism
will go to Arctic resorts just as
they now go to the Crimea."
