II. still Big MONEY in our business!

THE ordinary copper penny has lost lot of its
purchasing power these days = and some of its
copper But it still buys much electricity
For example, right now in your home penny
will toast about twenty slices Of bread or brew ten
cups Of coffee clean FIVE big rugs or run your
refrigerator for several hours
Rather startling what penny will do when you
think of it that way isn't it?
Actually the price of electricity came down so
steadily before the and it has stayed down so
successfully since that today the average fsrniy
gets about twice much electricity for the same
money it paid fifteen years ago.
All this didn't just happen, of course. It's due
largely to the hard work, efficiency and experience
of your friends and neighbors who and manage
this company. That's why penny, spent for cleo
t7cy, buys much.
CAUTION: Even though electricity is cheap
even though isn't rationed-PLEAsE DON'T WASTE
IT. Coal OIL n1anpower, transportation 90 into the

A trick question"
Traditions have more lives than
cat and are just as hard to kill"
writes the historian, R. Bentley
Thomas, as he explodes the one
that goes Tradition says that in
February 1914, Richard T. Bentley
and Benjamin Hallowell met on
the road somewhere about the
place where The Frances LATHE
Inn now stands and planned to
organize the Senior Farmers Club"
anyway the club was organized
that year.
Then he partially kills another
county tradition; that this Senior
Farmers Club is the oldest such
organization, for he finds that Car
roll County organized one in 1917,
in Union Bridge vicinity. This,
too, was organized by Quakers -
among them Thomas Sheppard,
Daniel and Samuel Haines. But
this club differed from the Sandy
Spring Club-it was organized for
cooperative marketing and not for
the social part. Some years ago,
when there was contest for a
suitable creed for Sandy Spring,
himself w. M. Moore suggested
that exceedingly apt and terse
epigram We Eat To Live. How
ever that may be, there is nothing
that lends fraternity and sociabil-
ity like the festive board" writes
Mr.. Thomas.
The early part of March DR..
Louis T. Bassler moved his
Servicentre from Ashton Corner
into a part Of his laboratory just

two largest fruit producers aver
aged up a profitable year. Rust
Candy did well with the first real
crop from young orchard, while
William W. Moore struck gold on
his apples. He picked about 10000
bushels---sold nearly 5000. worth
from one tree.
Three other farmers made
noteworthy crops and gains last
year.. T. Siebel, of the Spencer
vile section, sold about 1000 bush
els of peaches from his well pro-
tected orchard, when others had
few or none. All but go bushels
were sold right at the farm, at
prices ranging from So for culls
to So for some of the best. Prices
mostly were from 81 to Sc.
