REVOLUTION IN AGRICULTURE

American agriculture came out OF
this war geared to produce 80 to
35% more than it was producing in
the years Immediately preceding
Pearl Harbor. This increased produc-
tion came about at a time when TIE
farm population, and hence the farm
labor supply, was decreasing. In ad-
dition, the available supplies of farm
machinery were far below the
amounts that farmers wanted to buy.
This outstanding production on
the part of American farmers indi-
Gates we have had a veritable produc-
tion revolution in agriculture, de-
clared Secretary of Agriculture An
derson few days ago. We may ex-
pect that more and more farmers
will turn to the use of tractors and
other power machinery; that more A.
row cultivators will be in use, and
that many types of machines will be
used to cut down the heavy labor re-
quirements at harvest time in the
cotton, hay and vegetable fields, as
we'll as in the fruit orchards.

HOW RECREATION HAS
CHANGED

How rapidly the types of recrea-
tion enjoyed by rural people have
changed was illustrated in state
ment which shall represent as oc-
curing in four generations:
/. In Great-Grandfather' Day
Recreation was then of pioneer
type. Our ancestors wrestled, hunted
fished, trapped, raised houses, rolled
logs, played pranks on each other
andca mped out. along with much
feasting and dancing.
2. In Grandfatker's Day-Recrea-
ton was centered mainly in the
home and the school-box parties
school socials, singing schools, spell
ing bees, literary societies, debates
hay rides, minstrels, kissing games
ring games, picnics, fairs, barn rails
ings, log rollings, corn shuckings
dances, quilting parties, sewing bees
8. In the Lifetime of Our Parents
Play became organized; people
started paying money to be enter
tained-brass bands, fiddlers' con-
ventions, minstrels, chautauquas
baseball, dancing clubs, horse races
football, basketball. Activities still
largely free from commercialism
were family reunions, picnics, bi-
cycling, tennis, volley ball, golf
along with sewing bees, husking
bees, community sings, hay rides, fish
fries, etc.
4. In Our Automobile Age-Recre-
alton has become too commercialiZed
and urbanized; country people join
townspeople in going long distances
to football, basketball, big league
baseball, commercial movies, pool
tournaments, swimming parti S
skating parties, auto and motorcycle
races, roadhouse drinking and dane
ing parties, filling station poker
games and drugstore 'loafing con-
ventions. DIR. Clarence Poe, Editor

A SUCCESS TALK FOR THE BOYS

A little sermon on the qualities
which make for success is preached
in the current Progressive Farmer by
8O-year-old Clifford Pinchot, former
ly Governor of Pennsylvania, but
even better known as Americas s No
! pioneer in forestry and conserva-
tion. While he writes "A Success
for Farm Boys what he says should
interest a much wider audience:
Next to high character, which is
the foundation of all success WORTH
having perseverance, in my Judgment
Is the master quality.
A boy who wants to accomplish q
particular thing, and is willing to
stick to it in spite of opposition and
encouragement, very seldom fails.
Keeping Everlastingly At 1t" brings
success more often than any other
quality l know of.
The boy who sticks to his job, sees
what it leads to, and doesn't get
scared in advance, is the boy who
wins. You can do nearly anything you
like il you only believe that you can
Most of the obstacles which stop
people, IL you take the average all
through life, are imaginary, anyway
If you want to do a tl;ing worth do
ing, and will undertake to do it, and
will keep at it undismayed, the
chances are very strong that you will
win out.
wish you all the best kind of
good luck.

That America is eagerly awaiting
replacement materials is amply
borne out by results of a recent sur
vey conducted among car-owners in
various sections of the country, says
Keystone Automobile Club. The de-
mand for new tires outranks all else,
according to latest poll tabulation.
While 81 per cent of those inter-
viewed sought new cars immediately
and Is specified new models, 25 per
cent were content to wait until arri-
val of the 1947 models. On the other
hand, 20 per cent stressed the urgent
need for replacement of tehir present
tires.
An adequate supply of tires for all
motorists who need them is still
some months of, according to re-
ports received by the Club. And while
production estimates on the volume
of new cars are being constantly re-
vised upward, it will be a long time,
too, before every one who wants to
buy new car will be able to buy
one. w

MOVE TO LOWER STATE INCOME

In a move looking toward possible
reduction of State taxes, and the in
come tax in particular, Governor
Herbert r. O'Conor has asked tie
Board of Public Works to give first
consideration to such tax reduction.
in deciding upon the disposition of
expected surplus funds likely to ac-
crue to the State during the remain
der of the fiscal year of 1945.
Legal authority is vested in the
Board of Public Works to utilize any
surplus in the States general funds,
in excess of the working fund of ST.
900, 900 prescribed by law, for any OF
the following purposes:
Cd Reduction in income tax
(2) Reduction in property tax
CD ALLEGATION of surplus to post
war construction purposes
While expressing sympathetic
interest in all three possible uses of
any surplus funds, Governor O'Conor
declared that he felt strongly that
the utmost consideration was due the
tax payers WHO helped create any
surplus that may accrue. He pointed
to the recent transfer of $6,200,000
from surplus to the postwar con-
struction fund as indication of the
desirability for programming a great
part of this new construction from
funds in hand At the same time, he
called attention to the fact that much
of this construction cannot be under
taken Immediately because of exist
ing conditions.
The Governor asked the Board of
Public Works to review present reye-
nues and estimates of anticipated re-
ceipts in the hope that further re-
duction may be made in taxes affect
ing 1945 calendar year incomes.
Such a move, Governor O'Conor
asserted, is thoroughly in line with
his belief that tax reductions should
be attempted by all levels of govern
ment to stimulate business and pri-
vate enterprise, and to relieve in
some measure the heavy tax load
brought about by the war.

CAN GIVE GARDENS WINTER
OVERCOAT

Gardeners can improve their pros
poets of good crops in 1946 by SOW
ing cover crop in the areas of the
garden from which vegetables have
been harvested, says Charles H. Ma
honey, Horticulturist of the Univer-
sity of Maryland. vetch can still be
sown during September in parts of
Maryland, and rye will make a good
cover crop if planted by Oct.
A cover crop prevents washing
away of bare soil by winter and
spring rains. and also prevents leach
ing of what mineral fertilizers are
left in the soil by turning them into
plant growth. Rye will make a quick
growth and provide some organic
matter to be turned under even if
the garden is to be planted later in
the spring. Immediate planting of
the cover crop is necessary to make
it successful. September is too late
to sow crimson clover as a soil cover.
Vetch seed costs more than rye,
but being legume, 1t returns more
fertility to the soil than rye, provid-
ed 1t can be planted early enough to
make good growth. Rye seed is low
In cost, can be planted later than
other cover crops, and can be sown
broadcast over the garden and light
ly raked in.

BONDS FOR FERRY, TERMINAL
GO AT LOW RATE

The purchase of new ferry boat
or the Sandy Point -Matapeake ferry
.ystem moved step closer when the
State Roads Commission sold the
o1,500,000 bond issue, authorized at
he last session of the Legislature.
Governor O'Conor, in announcing
he sale, made known that the State
fill benefit to tke extent of S32,635
" selling the bonds at a per cent
instead of at the u per cent rate as
vas anticipated. The Chief Executive
pointed out that over the life of the
)onds, 15-year issue, S163.175 in
interest will be required, whereas the
tate had been expected to pay
,195,81O at the higher interest rate.
In addition, the State realizes an
immediate premium of S2,S48.50.
his amount was paid by the pur-
haser over and above the $780,
900 face value of the issue.
The bond issue will be used for the
acquisition of double-end new ferry
BOAT and for the erection of a two
~plit terminal at or near Matapeake.
1t will also be used for the installa-
ton of equipment for the boat and
criminal as well as for such buildings

tarffic and to construct protecting
jetties at the new terminal.

MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY
RESPONSIBILITY LAW

The new Motor Vehicle RESPONSE
bility Law, passed at the last session
of the Legislature, becomes effective
January 1, 1916. Because it directly
concerns more than 100000 licnesed
motor vehicle owners and operators
of Maryland, and indirectly every
citizen, w. Lee Elgin, Commissioner
of Motor Vehicles, is directing a
Statewide Educational Program to
acquaint the public with this most
important statute AS it's title indi-
Gates, the law has two general aims:
First to establish financial RESPONSE
bility on the highways by requiring
that anyone who owns or operates a
car shall pay for damages he causes
tOs others or forfeit his driving Ii
cense and registration plates; second,
to serve as an incentive for better
driving by increasing the motorists
stake in safety and placing a pre-
MUM on good driving records. The
statute is NOT a compulsory insur-
ance law. A motorist is not required
to take out insurance as a prerequi-
site to obtaining a drivers license or
registration plates. A careful driver
who avoids involvement in an acci-
dent and maintains good driving
record will not be denied the use of
the highways. Anyone who owns or
operates an automobile may be af-
fected by the provisions of the law,
including those which call for revo-
cation or suspension of his driving
license and vehicle registration, in
any of the following circumstances: !:
If he is involved in an accident
resulting in any personal injury or
property damage in excess of $4,000.
2. If he fails to satisfy within 80
days an accident judgment in any
amount for personal injury, or for
property damage in excess of $50.
g. If his drivers license is suspend
ed or revoked as the result of certain
convictions, such as reckless or
drunken driving, or leaving the scene
of an accident.
A. If his driving record is such that
lu0 COMMISSIONER OI MOCOr N0HlcloS
feels it is in the best interest of the
public to require proof of future fin
ancial responsibility.
Under certain circumstances, the
law also affects residents of Mary
land while operating cars in other
States or in Canada. For instance, if
resident Of Maryland is convicted
of certain offenses such as drunken
or reckless driving, or has a judg-
ment taken against him in any other
State or in Canada, upon receipt of
notice of this fact the Department of
Motor Vehicles is required to pro-
ceed in the same manner as though
the occurrence were in this State. All
provisions of the act also apply to
nonresident owners and operators
using the streets and highways of
Maryland under the same circum-
stances as they would apply to a res
ident.

FREEDOM FROM WANT

"The Food and Agriculture Organ
ization is born out of the idea of
freedom from want
This is the opening sentence of a
report, The Work of FAC, prepared
for, the delegates to the first session
of the organization meeting in Que
bee, Canada, October 16,1945.
This" the report continues, sis
not one mans fortunate phrase; it
expresses an aspiration as old as man
kind. Whenever primitive men tried
to imagine paradise in concrete
terms, they pictured it as a place
where food was plentiful and want
no longer existed. Every utopia man
has conceived has been such a place.
But in tkis generation freedom from
want has come to have different
meaning. 1t has been taken out of
the realm of utopian ideas. The con-
viction has spread that it can be
achieved; indeed, that is one of the
convictions most characteristic of the
thinking and the mood of this gener-
alton, and it is held by hard-headed
business men and skeptical scientists
no less than by dreamers and ideal
ists.'
Freedom from want" another
paragraph says, "means the conquest
of hunger and the attainment Of the
ordinary needs of a decent self-re-
specting life. 1t is not to be expected
that human beings who have reached
this goal will be free from desire for
other god things of life. Indeed. the
