ONE HALF TOP SOIL HAS LEFT
THE FIELDS

Soil experts indicate that about
one half of the top soil in the county
has left the fields, on the average.
They state that the original depth of
top soil in the county when the land
was first settled was about one foot in
depth. Today these top soils are not
likely to be more than six inches in
depth.
These soil men point out that Cecil
County farmers have done muck to-
ward retaining their soil through US
ing good crop rotations. Yet, in spite
of the crop rotation and other good
practices to keep the soil from wash
ing, the soil has left at a rather rap
i'd rate.
Last summer group of Cecil
County farmers realizing the serious
ness of the top soil losses, signed a
petition requesting that Soil Con-
servation District be formed in the
County. This district, they found out,
would provide for local organiza-
ton under a State Act that would
permit Cecil County farmers to go
out and ask the Soil Conservation
Service to come in and aid Cecil
County farmers in this serious prob
lem
AS required by the act series of
hearings were HELD in the county
where farmers were invited to attend
and voice their opinion as to whether
or not they wanted Soil Conserva-
ton District. 1t is necessary accord
ing to the State Act to have farmers
vote as to whether or not they are
in favor of the creation of this Dis
trict. The referendum will be held
about February l., 1915.
If this Soil Conservation District
is formed, farmers in the County will
be able to get assistance in their
cropping plans, laying out contour
lines, working out drainage problems
on land needing drainage, and other
practices in connection with conser-
wing and improving our agricultural
soils. This work will be on voluntary
basis, with each individual farmer,
however, TIE Soil Conservation Dis
trict provides plan for farmers to
work together in conserving and i'm
proving their farm lands.
Seven of the Eastern Shore coun-
ties that have organized into soil con-
servation district, have active drain
age programs in operation where
large draglines are digging out the
drainage in The counties. This work
is being gradually extended to farm
land through farm drains that outlet
into the larger bitches that are dug
out

Christmas Seal
Origin Recalled
With 1913 Drive

The origination of the Christmas
tuberculosis seal was recalled by Of
fcials of the American tuberculosis
institute as the 36th annual sale got
under way.
Back in 1903, Finar Holboell, then
a young mail clerk in the post Of
flee at Charlottenlund, Denmark,
conceived the idea of a voluntary
tax on Christmas greeting cards
which would benefit the poor. He
gained permission from the ministry
to sell the stamps at post offices for
a fund to erect a hospital for tu-
bercular children.
In 1907 Miss Emily P. Bissell of
Wilmington, Del, adopted the idea
and interested the American Red
Cross in the project. The first ma
tional sale in 1903 brought in $135, 1000
and the amount has grown larger
each year. The sale of seals has
saved 100000 lives annually among
tubercular patients, officials declare.
At the time of his death in 1927,
Holboell was president of the Inter-
national tuberculosis association
and a member of the board of di-
rectors of the National tuberculosis
Association of Denmark. AS mark
of honor to the originator, the Danish
Christmas seal for 1927 bore his pic
ture.

Christmas Elf Concerned
With Well.Being of Cattle

Jule-Nisse was not exactly Dan
ish version of Santa Claus. He was
an elfish little old man who lived in
the attic and was primarily con-
cerned with the well-being of the
cattle, keeping them quiet and con-
tented, caring for them if the stable
hands neglected their duties.
Misses name and association with
Christmas probably stems from his
legendary tenancy of houses where
peace and contentment prevailed.
IT'S said he either avoided homes
where contention ruled or played all
sorts of gremlin-like tricks upon the
occupants thereof
Danish youngsters, mindful Of
Misses long memory and watchful
eye, put themselves upon their good
behavior as Christmas approaches.

Famous Cribs of World
Still Being Preserved

In various central European coun-
tries the Christmas crib, staged in
a box, is carried through the streets
by groups of singing children. It is
also a feature of every home in
southern Europe, where many ia
nous cribs are found in churches.
The most elaborate Christmas
praesepe in Italy is the celebrated
shrine of Madonna dele Grazie. Aft
er the news of st. Francis praesepe
had spread the Capuchin monks built
a grotto Is feet high, made of Sar-
dinian cork. They had a system Of
figures, shepherds, fiocks, and the
Three Kings, which moved down to
the manger. The wooden figures
were carved by Gaggini and Ma
ragliano.
The crib at Casterta, Italy, in
cludes the most famous Bambino in
the world.
At the Bayerisches National mu-
scum in Munich is to be found the
worlds most famous collection Of
cribs.

DOMESTIC COAL USERS
CAUTIONED

Consumers of domestic coal for
household heating were cautioned
by State Coordinator of Solid Fuels
w. Frank Roberts against relaxing
efforts to conserve their winters quo
tas of solid fuels, since TIE outlook
of increased mine production during
the remainder of the heating season
is unimproved.
"Householders must CONT n u e
throughout the winter to take every
precaution to prevent waste of fuel
because of shortages due to shrinking
mine manpower," Coordinator Rob-
erts said. Temperatures should be
kept down to a safe minimum as a
means of saving coal. Moreover, ev-
cry ton saved will reduce the burden
of railroad transportation, labor, and
retail dealers delivery facilities.
When it can be done without en-
dangering the family's health, we can
well afford to put up with some slight
discomfort There can be no COM
plant about it, when it is realized
that the fighting men overseas are
spending their winter in huts, bomb
ed-out dwellings and foxholes, all of
them colder than the most poorly
heated building here at home"
The Coordinator said that, in the
normal range of domestic heating,
every additional degree of heat re-
quires three percent more fuel. Thus,
the difference in annual consumption
of coal between IS degrees and rs
degrees would be 80 percent or three
tons of every ten tons burned for
space heating.
In contrast to the American GUS
tom of maintaining high tempera-
lures in their homes, Roberts cited
the typical English home. For gener-
ations the people of England have
normally maintained home tempera-
lures in the lower sixties. During the
war they have had even less fuel than
usual, yet the health of the British
today is the best in history.

Keeping Spirit
OF Christmas
HENRY VAN DYKE
From "The Spirit Of Christnids.")

It is a good thing to observe
Christmas day. The mere marking
of times and seasons, when men
agree to stop work and make merry
together, is a wise and wholesome
custom. 1t helps one to feel the SUI
premacy of the common life over the
Individual life. 1t reminds man
to set his own little watch, now and
then, by the great clock of humanity
which runs on sun time.
But there is a better thing than
the observance of Christmas day,
and that is, keeping Christmas.
Are you willing to forget what
YOU have done for other people, and
to remember what other people have
done for you; to ignore what the
world owes you, and to think what
you owe the world to put your rights
in the background, and your duties
in the middle distance, and your
chances to do little more than your
duty in the foreground; to see that
your fellowmen are just as real as
you are, and to try to look behind
their faces to their hearts, hungry
for joy; to own that probably the
only good reason for your existence
! is not what you are going to get out
of life, but what you are going to
give to life; to close your book OF
complaints against the management
of the universe, and look around you
for a place where you can sow
few seeds of happiness-are you will
ing to do these things even for a
day? Then you can keep Christmas.
Are you willing to stoop down and
consider the needs and the desires OF
little children; to remember the
weakness and loneliness of people
who are growing old; to stop asking
how much your friends love you,
and ask yourself whether you love
them enough; to bear in mind the
things that other people have to
bear in their hearts; to try to I'M
derstand what those who live in the
same house with you really want,
without waiting for them to tell you;
W t1lIlI yOQl lamp oO' tIot IL WILL
give more light and less smoke, and
to carry it in front so that your
shadow will fall behind you; to make
a grave for your ugly thoughts and
a garden for your kindly feelings,
with the gate open-are you willing
to do these things even for a day?
Then you can keep Christmas.
Are you willing to believe that
love is the strongest thing in the
world-stronger than hate, stronger
than evil, stronger than death-and
that the blessed life which began in
Bethlehem 1900 years ago is the i'm
age and brightness of the Eternal
Love? Then you can keep Christ
mas.
And if you keep it for day, why
