Firemen Extinguish Blaze

The Oakland firemen were called to
the Floyd Wensell farm last Friday
morning when sparks from a fire
spread to huge straw pile near his
barn.
The pile was mass of flames when
the department arrived few minutes
after the alarm had been given, and
they succeeded in stopping the fire
before it had caught the barn. Firemen
grabbed pitchforks and scattered the
straw in all directions, while others
carried water from nearby spring to
keep full the booster tank on the fire
engine.

Five wildlife conservation projects
for Garrett county were set up last

DR.. Thomas B. Symons, extension SER
vice head of the University of Mary
land at College Park.
This is the first major step in a
Statewide program of farm forestry
which embraces many phases of con-
servation of the soil, timber and Wild
life, land usage and development of
habitats for wildlife.
1,4OO Acres Set Aside
A total of 400 acres will be set
aside for the five areas where inten-
sive efforts for the restoration of wild
life will be undertaken.
There are in addition four similar
projects now functioning, two of which
are located on State forest property
in Worcester county and two others on
State forest property in Wicomico
county.
The five projects to be set up in
Garrett county are as follows:
No. 1-Wolfe's Swamp area, two
miles northeast of New Germany, 100
acres.
No. pine Swamp river area, on
the road from Homecoming to Savage
River, 200 acres.
No. 3-High Rock Fire Tower area,
about seven miles north of the site of
the new Savage River dam, 700 acres.
No. Bear Greek area, adjoining
the Bear Greek Fish Nursery, in the
vicinity of Accident, 200 acres.
No. Potomac State Forest area,
on Backbone Mountain, about four
miles east of Mountain Lake Park, 200
acres.
One On Highest Elevation
Area No. is on one Of the highest
elevations in Garrett county, some
$3.50 feet above sea level.
Work on Projects No. and No. 2
is to go forward Immediately. The re-
naming three projects will be under
taken early next year.
The areas will be fenced immedi-
ately with galvanized wire and posted
with metal signs, II by IS inches, ad-
vising gunners: Estate Game Propa-
cation Area-It is unlawful to hunt,
trap or enter upon this area"
Upon completion of the fence-build-
ing job, grain will be planted on which
birds may feed and nut-bearing trees
and berry bushes will be set out.
Federal and State organizations are
cooperating in carrying out the many
sided program, developed by the sub
committee of the State Agricultural
Land Use Planning Committee.
Departments Assisting
In addition to the University Of
Maryland's Extension Service, the
State Forestry Department and the
Maryland State Game and Inland Fish
Commission are cooperating. Federal
agencies which are aiding include bu-
reaus of the Department of Agricul-
ture, the Civilian Conservation Corps
and the experimental stations.

SUNDAY DINNER

Director of the ASP Kitchen

TGG prices have continued to drop
IL to a very reasonable point for
first quality and to cheap for ordinary
grades. Even the cheapest eggs should
be unusually good. Butter and cheese
are inexpensive.
Forequarter cuts of beef and lamb
are lower, making for a more normal
price range between chucks and kinds.
Little other change will be noted in
either meat or poultry costs.
Apples and the citrus fruits con-
tinue to be plentiful and cheap. Peas,
caulifower, broccoli, and lima beans
are now reasonably priced. Green
beans are less cheap but the quality
is better and the price still reasonable.
Salad greens, cucumbers and tomatoes
are available at moderate cost.

Business Guides

Director, .Basiness Training

MODERN business is largely con.
1v1 Quoted on credit. The manu-.
facturer allows wholesalers and job
bers time in which to pay for what
they buy. the latter in turn ordi.
!narily do not demand immediate
payment from retailers. The extern.
sion OF credit allows many business
transactions to take place that
would not otherwise occur. It.
therefore. increases the number of
sales and thus makes possible q
greater production OF commodities.
In spite of the frequency OF credit
transactions there is a widespread
misunderstanding Of the nature Of
credit. Credit passes from the debtor
to the creditor. from the buyer to
the seller, and never In the opposite
direction. Few people realize this.
We frequently hear such statements
as MRS. Blank found it annoying to
pay cash for her daily purchases, 80
the grocer gave her credit, or, "Mr.
Citizen asked for credit at his
clothier's and the clothier was glad
20 give 1t to him"
As matter OF fact Mrs. Blank
and Mr.. Citizen did not receive
credit. They possessed It to begin
with, otherwise they could not have
purchased goods without paying
cash. They parted with a portion OF
their credit when they bought
goods from merchants with promises
to pay 10 the future. The customer
offers credit, and the seller accepts
or declines to accept credit. This is
true In all credit transactions, large
or small. The debtor redeenls his
credit. OF that part OF It with which
he has parted, when he pays his bill.
II dealer realizes clearly that
credit is an attribute of the buyer
be will be more able to size up the
credit standing of a customer and
be will, therefore, have fewer losses
from bad debts.

1t is the intention of the government
to construct two army bases and we are in
formed that all indications point to the
Florida peninsula as site for one of them.
Instead of constructing another base in this
state, why not utilize the one here in Key
West, where thousands of soldiers were
-quartered during the World War? But, of
course, economy is out of the question with
this Administration.

clement weather, could be uninterrupted

The Files of The Citizen

Blue prints of three sites in Key
West will be submitted to the
committee of the New York State
monument committee for selec-
ton as places probably appropri-
ate for the erection of the me-
mortal monument planned to be
placed in this city in honor of
the soldiers who were from New
York and died of yellow fever
here during the civil war period,
The intersection of the highway
and the boulevard was the place
determined on as being the most
fitting and was most favored by
the committee members, who
made a round of the city follow
ing a meeting held yesterday, and
it was generally concluded that
a plot 20x20 feet could be easily
spared on the extreme side of the
boulevard, yet would be on the
right-of-way of the thoroughfare
and just off the railway property
there. Here the shaft would
come within the full view of visi-
tors and could also be seen by
those who come by railroad. Since
all visitors, practically, come by
automobile over the boulevard, it
is believed by the committee that
this site would make the monu-
ment better than would any of
the other places selected. The
local committee is composed of
Mrs. Norberg Thompson, Miss
Ileen Williams, Mrs. r. L. Spots
wood, Mayor Leslie A. Curry,
Karl Thompson and w. w. De-
