an inventory might be a shock, but
no merchant would put off finding
where he stands, unless he wanted to
invite bankruptcy. Should an intel
ligent nation do less? A nation can
be rich only as long as its natural re-
sources remain greater than the

There is food for deep thought in
Mr.. Darling's comments. We need to
know where we stand if we are to
remain the bread basket of the world
We also need to practice more Of the
measures known to be effective in
conserving, improving, and protect

A large part of the job can be done

expense. And Garrett County is we'll
equipped to provide the extra help
that is needed. The Garrett Soil Con-
servation District was organized for
the purpose of helping farmers con-
serve soil and moisture. The District

Or maybe Mother Earth would be-

Bishop Heber, who said, "Where
every prospect pleases and only man
is vile" Maybe she would close by
simply saying, "Oh well, man will
learn; let's hope it's not too late
Anyway, if the earth were to make
some such accusation about mankind,
it would be perfectly true. would
like to repeat part of a message
written by Ding Darling, the famous
cartoonist and conservationist:
''The silt-laden rivers we see run
ming down to the ocean may look like
nothing but muddy water to you, but
they are beefsteaks and potatoes,
ham and eggs, and bread and butter
with jam on it. For there, with the
aid of improvident agricultural
methods, goes the rich topsoil from
American farms at the rate of 25,-
100000 acres a year. Some groceries!
"Water reservoirs f or industrial
purposes, water for agriculture,
water for municipalities, and water
for fish and wildlife has been so pol

partially counteract this waste of
water, we are authorizing millions of
dollars for the control of man-made
floods.

lie woke up to the realization of
what's happening. A breeze is blowing
that may soon become a hurricane,
depicting natural resources all along
the line. Two world wars in which we
oiled, munitioned, and fed the world,
took heavy toll not only of our soil,
but of our iron, oil and forests.
Bernard Baruch, the wisest of
our elder statesmen, says that an in

number one essential for our future
prosperity. The result of taking such

The Old Soak Sez

The name "old soak" is usually
given to the person who drinks too
much. Mother Earth is the biggest
old soak of all We can be glad for
this because otherwise the world
would not be habitable.
The soil that covers the earth is
second only to the sea itself as a
reservoir for water If we lived in a
world that could not be penetrated
by water, all Of our rainfall would
run off the surface as it does from
a concrete road. The result, of course
would be terrific floods. Then, as soon
as the rainfall stopped, the land sur
face would be as dry as a bone. Vege-
tation would have no more chance of
growing than it would on a tin roof
We would have a climate like that of
the moon, where temperatures vary
from hundreds of degrees above to
hundred degrees below zero. MOis-
ture that passes from the soil into the
air keeps our temperature livable.
Yes, we can be very glad this earth
of ours is an old soak. But soil must
be handled properly if it is to give
us full benefits from ''the sunshine
and the rain" Of which poets sing.
Unfortunately man has not always
given the soil this care. | wonder
what Mother Earth would say if she
could deliver talk on water? Maybe
it would 90 something like this.
"Water, water everywhere, and not
drop to drink In the old days, be-
fore man came on the scene, | had
everything under control. The trees
and grass covered the surface and
protected me from the beating force
of raindrops. When these trees and
grasses died, they added to the
mantle of rich topsoil which filtered
and absorbed water But now, that
too many trees have been cut, and too
much grass has been plowed up, rain
causes erosion. The beating raindrops
churn my bare soil and make it mud
dy.
q can't drink this coffee-colored
brew because it clogs my pores. So,
l go thirsty even when it rains. If
man would work with me, instead of
against me, he could plow the land
without causing these bad effects.
All he would need to do would be to
slow down the speed of the runoff
water. This can be done by contour
blowing, cover crops, diversion, and
any number of other simple things"

Thus, in neither Russia nor her sat
telites, no matter how much money
we spend, are we able effectively to
counteract Soviet propaganda. And,
even if we could get the same dis
semination we could not compete in
misrepresentation contest. We just
are not built that way. But for the
comforting thought of Mrs. McCorm-
lex the prospect would be black, in
deed. However, this astute and expert
enced observer is convinced that in
the end propaganda will not prevail
over facts. All the broadsides that go
out from the Soviet sphere do not,
she contends. draw people in. Every
where the trend of those under Soviet
domination is to get away, move to-
ward US. All the traffic is one way.
That is encouraging That belief
should enable us to bear well the in
justice being done us. 1t is, in fact,
the only thing we have to sustain us.
For we cannot match in volume or
character to the hostile publicity with
which so much of the world is now
flooded. And it is quite clear that the
real purpose of this anti-American
propaganda is to divert us from our
great objective which is internation-
al cooperation in the cause of perma-
nent peace. That is our main business
and to engage in violent name-calling
arguments interferes with that. Moth
ing should be permitted to interfere
with that Calm refusal to be diverted
into a futile debate seems the most
effective possible antidote We are
strong enough to adopt that course.

Milk Production Hints
Outlined For Fall Use

Maryland milk producers will eX-
perence less difficulty in maintaining
production this fall if they follow sug-
gestions outlined by G. NJ. Cairns,
head Of the Dairy Department at the
University of Maryland
Zone of the first considerations, -
he said, "is to protect the herd from
the cold, chilling rains which so fire.
quently occur during October and No
vember. Cows should be inside during
such weather and on cold nights"
He also emphasized the need for
maintaining high feed consumption
and warned that pastures at this time
of year do not furnish sufficient
nutrients. Hay and silage should be
fed as supplements and the change
from pasture to barn feeding should
be made gradually as weather de-
mands.
Plan for 1913
DR.. Cairns also stressed the i'm
portance Of dalrymen planning ahead
to keep up production every fall.
"This is an important problem con-
fronting the dairy industry" he said,
"but it can be met if the number of
faIl-frcshening cows is increased. In
fact, the schedule of freshening in
the herds should be changed until ap-
proXimately one-third of the calves
come in the fall with the other two
thirds coming in winter and spring"
He explained that it is natural for
COWS to freshen in the spring months
and then to be giving less milk by the
time fall comes. However, this pattern
can be changed, particularly if dairy
men will plan each year to have their
first calf heifers freshen in the fall.

Practically all of this comes from
Soviet sources and there is no way in
which we can meet or match it. For
number of reasons it is not a game
we can play Our State Department
efforts with its $20,OOO,OOO appropri-
alton and Intellectual personnel are
feeble, futile and sometimes foolish.
1t isn't question Of money and it
isn't a question Of equipment or
capacity. Fundamentally, it is a
question of character Perhaps it
sounds unctuous and SNUG but the
basic fact is that we are handicapped

lies and slander about other nations.
This does not mean that there are
not some liars and slanderers among
our politicians and public men. Nor
that many Of our citizens are not, for
their own ends, mean as we'll as men
dacious. 1t does mean that as
country dealing with other countries
our standards bar lies and slander.
We have a reputation for decency to
live up to. Our highly competitive
politics make it certain that any
administration sponsoring deliberate
misrepresentation of another nation
in time of peace inevitably would
be caught, condemned and tossed out
at the next election.

and that Truth must prevail in the

Thus, as Mrs. Anne O'Hare McCorm-

York Times, a propaganda unparal-
leled in volume and venom is spread
through western Europe by means of
the radio and an immense network of
Communist newspapers to an extent
beyond the conception of those who
measure Communist influence by the
limited appeal of the party-line press
in this country"
