SOMERSET ATTORNEY AC-
CEPTS NEW POSITION

States Attorney F. Kirk Maddrix
of Somerset county, has resigned
from that office.
Mr.. Maddrix, who relinquished the
Somerset prosecutors post, has ac-
|cepted a position with the Legal De-
partment of the Federal Government
and will be stationed for the present,
at least, in Washington, d. c. His
term of elected office, however, would
expire on January 1, 1913; thus, there
are only a few months of his term
remaining unexpired.
Mr.. Maddrix, a native of Crisfield,
was employed with the Federal Gov
eminent, and spent number of
years in Peurto Rico, before return
ing to his native city in 1884. In the
fall of that year, he was selected
States Attorney on the Republican
ticket and was again elected in 1888.
He was not candidate for reelection
this fall.
While there is confirmation as to
whom his successor might be, it is
thought that the post will be filled
shortly.

HERD QUALITY Is
One OF The WAR
Time DEMANDS

With market prices of livestock
where they are today, no farmer can
afford to pass up an opportunity to
improve the quality and production of
his herd to meet increased wartime
demands, says James B. Clubhouse of
the University of Maryland animal
husbandry department.
Many Maryland herds and flocks
can we'll afford to use better sires,
Mr.. Clubhouse declares. In many
cases, he says, the sire is poorer than
many females in the herd, and it
lis loss of time and money to lower
the quality of the herd in such a
way. Don't get caught in post
war price decline that will make a
new sire an impossibility," is his ad-
vice.
The sire exerts an influence on
every calf, lamb, colt, or pig that is
dropped in the herd, Mr. Clubhouse
points out, while the female exerts an
influence only on those that are her
own off spring. To cause any improve
ment, he states, the sire must be bet
ter than any female in the herd or
flock. He must be outstanding as an
individual; he must be purebred;
and he must have the ability to pro-
duce a marketable product, whether
it is market animal or a breeding
animal. A good rule is to pick the
sire that is strong where the females
of the herd or flock are weak.
Improvement will come only thru
the use of a good pure bred sire, Mr.
Clubhouse asserts. A scrub sire,
purebred or otherwise, seldom pro-
duces a marketable product and usual
ly lowers the quality of the herd or
flock in succeeding generations. A
purebred has a long line of ancestry
behind him and is bred to standard
ize certain characters which breed
true A scrub sire may produce any
kind of offspring.
Don't keep an Improbable female
just because she is a purebred, Mr..
Clubhouse advises Sell her while
prices are high, as she consumes
feeds, time and labor that could be
spent on more profitable females.

crop was a record one. The Florida
orange season started later this sea-

The figure mentioned above will
not surprise you when you read that

The orange tree Is an evergreen.
Few varieties ever grow to height
of more than 30 feet. What Is al

blossoms, green and ripe fruit on
the trees at the same time.
However, the orange tree is usually

Florida legislators showed their
sentiment toward the orange blos-
som when they legally adopted 1t
for their State floral emblem.
The orange is said to be a native
of China and the Burmese PENN
sula, whence 1t was carried to India
and Hindustan. The Arabs imme-
diately saw the value of this fruit,
and in the 10Th century it was
favorably introduced to MeSo-
potamia. From Asia, it was taken
to Northern Africa and Spain. The
Spaniards took it to South America,
and American missionaries sent
small trees to Florida and California.
This is the romantic story of the
travelling experiences of the COM
mercially important orange of to-
day. .

Americans would do without their
