FARM INCOME

The highest farm income for any
six months since 1880 was forecast
last week by government economists
for the first half of 1887. Drawing
on official figures for the first four
months of the year, which showed a
total farm income of $2,604,OO0,00O,
81 per cent better than last year, the
economists predicted that 1897 farm
income would reach the $4,00O,0OO,-
900 half-year mark for the first time
in seven years.
Sharp price rises in cotton, wheat,
corn and other major farm products
were largely responsible for the gain,
the economists stated, since the vol
ume of marketing during the first
four months of the year fell off about
per cent.

Contour burrows are practical,
easily constructed erosion control
measure for pastures that is being
used effectively on number OF farms
in the Soil Conservation project and
work areas at Boonsboro, HARDWOOD
and White Hail., according to o. c.
Bruce, state coordinator for the Ser
vice of Maryland.
AS a general rule, he says, after a
farmer has had some experience he
can stake out, construct, lime, ferti-
lie and seed the necessary number
of burrows for two or three acres OF
pasture in a ten-hour day, using ,
standard IL or IA inch pillow. One
Glow furrow width is usually suffic-
lent for these structures, if moisture
conditions are right and the ground
is not too rocky. burrows placed
ten feet apart in an acre of pasture
will hold as much water as it would
take to cover this same area one
half inch deep.

ELEVEN MARYLAND COUNTIES
TO BE AERIALLY PHOTO
GRAPHED

More than $500 square miles OF
farm land in eleven Maryland coun-
ties will be aerially photographed
and mapped during 1887 by the
Agricultural Adjustment Admins
tration. il is announced by DR.. T. b.
Symons, Director of the University
Of Maryland Extension Service. The
counties. which will be mapped,
either partially or entirely are Anne
Arundel, Calvert, Caroline, Carroll,
Charles, Frederick, Prince Georges
Queen Anne's, st. Mary's, Talbot and
Washington. Kent county was map
ped in this manner in 1886.
The Agricultural Adjustment Ad-
ministration inaugurated the use OF
aerial photography for mapping farm
land in 1884 and this year is plan
ming to photograph approximately
$4,000 square miles in "a states.
Aerial mapping, in addition to be-
ing accurate and considerably cheap
err than other methods, will provide
record that can be used from year
to wear for large number of farms,
thus eliminating the expense and de-
Law incident to measuring these
farms each year.

SCRAP STEEL, SCRAP LIFE

Old, dead automobiles, molderine
in roadside graveyards, have LONG
been a worrisome sight in this coun-
try. We peer into glade and glen
and find bodies decomposing there,
stripped of tires and batteries. For
eigners, visiting us, are appalled, at
the spectacle, and write letters nome
to their papers about American
wealth and waste.
But today these carcasses lie IN
easily in their burial grounds, prey
ed upon by grave robbers of a new
sort. The price of scrap iron and
steel has risen tremendausly-it
seems there is a European demand:
iron Is wanted for the wars, and the
stealthy junkman arrives to pluck
the ancient auto from the caress of
raspberry vine and nettle. At his
approach, field mice fee their nest
in the cushions. Iron for the wars!
Somewhere peasant saves his brok-
en- spade for the government collec-
tor; somewhere a bride melts down
her wedding ring for God and coun-
try; somewhere someone's old fam
lily sedan goes to its great adventure.
Scrap steel shipments have jump
ed from a 2S7,203 ton average in
the years 1928 to 1888, to more than
a 100000 ton estimate this year.
An alarming percentage of this is
said to be going direct to nations pre-
pairing for war.
The United States is talking peace
and encouraging war by permitting
the unrestricted shipment of war in
gradients abroad.

THE MIRACLE HOUSE

| The Claiborne Miracle House, a
tuberculosis preventorium for white
MARYLAND children, will again open
its doors this summer to approx
mately 1875 children threatened with
future breakdowns from tubercu-
losis if nothing is done to prevent it.
The official opening of the Miracle
House will be on June 2Sth, when
large delegation of children will
leave from Baltimore for the Eastern
Shore. This will mark the begin
ming of the eighteenth season in the
preventorium's history. During this
time more than 1000 children have
been entertained there.
Speaking of the Miracle House,
William B. Matthews, Managing Dr.
rector of the Maryland tuberculosis
Association said, 1.-THE Miracle House
is for children who lived in contact
with tuberculosis and are in need OF
strengthening so that they can eff
fectively fight against IL. there
they are exposed to the most health
full conditions and receive careful
and considerable treatment. Every
effort is directed toward improving
their health and in teaching them
how to protect their health.
"This service is free to those who
attend, being made possible by the
annual sale of tuberculosis Christ
mas Seals. Everything that the
children could possibly need is furn-
ished for them, including the cloth
ing This places everyone ON an equal
basis and also makes it possible for
those to conserve their incomes for
fighting the disease at its source"

KEYSTONE CLUB MOTOR
PATROL

A substantial addition to the per-
sonnet of it's Motor Patrol has been
made by the Keystone Automobile
Club of Maryland, as first step in
expansion of Club civic activities CO.
incident with record growth in
membership.
Announcement is made by Robert
E. Gambrill, Regional Supervisor OF
the Club, that membership goal OF
IS, 900 is expected to be reached be-
fore the end of the present year, and
that on the basis of present gains the
Club has entered upon program de-
signed to improve motoring condi-
tons
The familiar motorcycle unit of
the patrol now is augmented by
fleet of automobiles, painted dis
tinctive moonstone gray and bearing
signs identifying them as part of the
Clubs First Aid Organization. Both
motorcycles and cars are manned by
uniformed patrolmen adept in FIRST
Aid-both medical and mechanical
and each piece of equipment car
ries a complete set of tools and med
ical supplies to cope with any kind of
highway emergency.
In the three and one-half years of
its existence the Patrol has render
ed 27,906 services to motorists
stranded on the highways. Over the
Memorial Day weekend the patrol
men, operating in Eastern Pennsyl-
yania, New Jersey, Maryland and the
District of Columbia, assisted more
than 500 motorists whose cars had
broken down.

FARM PROBLEMS IN CONGRESS

Difficulties have been encountered
by officials and farm leaders in their
attempts to arrange new program
that might succeed old measures that
were crudely called farm relief.
The various subsidy elements that
have been encouraged by the Admin
istration during the past four years
are being challenged, because of the
gestures in behalf of sweeping econ
omy "all down the line. Those who
are engaged in the controversy diff
fer over the question of the size of
farm program appropriations, be-
cause farm prices are shown by Of
fetal statistics to have almost doubl-
ed since May, 1888. The Senate re-
Gently trimmed $6O,OOO,OOO from the
$500, 100000 appropriation for soil
conservation.

TWO MARYLAND FARMERS HON.
ORED BY UNIVERSITY

Honorary certificates in agricul-
ture were awarded two Maryland
farmers by the University of Mary
land at the regular commencement
exercises held in College Park on
June 5. The presentation was made
by DR.. H. c. Byrd, president of the
University.
The two men receiving these hon
ors were Paul L. Gunby of Marion
Station, Somerset county and Edwin
Warfield, Jr., of Woodbine, Howard
county.
In presenting Mr. Gunby, DR.. T. B..
Symons, director of the extension
service, referred to his achievements
in demonstrating improved practices
in strawberry culture, has active eff
forts in advancing the farming prac-
tees and living conditions of the peo-
pie of his community, and his work
in promoting farm and social organi-
cations.
The award to Mr.. Warfield was
made in recognition of his disting-
uished achievements in promoting
cooperative organizations of farmers,
scientific improvement and conserva-
ton of soil, as progressive farmer
and business man, and as a leader
among men. At present he is pres
ident of the Hillsboro-Queen Anne's
Cooperative Association, the largest
producer cooperative marketing or

LABOR UNREST

To industry the Lewis Committee
of Industrial Organizations repre-
SCENTS labor dictatorship OF business.
Many industrialists are convinced
that compromise now will mean COM
plete subservience later on. They
see in Lewis's current demands for
collective bargaining rights devil
GUS approach to the closed shop
the unionization plan under which
no man may work in given factory
unless and until he has Joined the
union which dominates the factory's
trade.
To many political observers, es-
pecially those who are prone to view
things with alarm, the c. l. o. is
weapon with the aid of which Lewis
may come to control or even usurp
government. They suggest that a
body of three or four million men,
disciplined to leadership, is the sort
of machine which toppled democra-
cies and created relationships In
Europe.
Both the C.. 1. o. and the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor look for
great gains under the Wagner Labor
Relations Act, which permits unions
to demand consent elections under
government supervision to establish
their right to exclusive bargaining
rights. The A. F. of L. is convinced
that the law will prove tremendous
advantage in forcing Lewis to agree
to showdown elections in the COM
ing struggle. The G. l. o. has al
ready enjoyed Wagner Act benefits
in its struggle with steel. Whether
the government, in the role of UNI
pire can restrain the two rival unions
from open conflict remains in doubt
Pitched struggle between the two
armies seems inevitable. AS the bat
tie lines are drawn, hope of early in
dustrial peace in the nation dwindles
Labor is on the march under two diff
ferent standards. Where the move
ment will end, how it will eventually
affect economic and political Ameri-
ca, is a speculation too great and
important to allow of a hurried OF
certain answer at this time.

TREES FOR ERoDING LANDS

Farmers cooperating with the Soil
Conservation Service in its program
of erosion control have retired $780,
600 acres of steeply sloping or Sc
verely eroded croplands to trees and
shrubs. Under proper management,
farm woodlands are not the waste
lands that many farmers have consid-
cred them to be, according to J. F.
Preston, Forester of the Soil Conser-
walton Service. Proper manage
ment means fire prevention, adapted
trees, thinning, and protection from
grazing animals.
