Timber Possibilities
Good In County

Possibilities for expansion of the
timber industry in Garrett county
are good, according to a recent sur
vey by Forestry officials. They esti-
mate that there are 281, 500 acres
of commercial forest land in the
county, of which $4,000 is farmer
owned, 10000 acres owned by in
dustrial and private interests and
$4,000 by the State. Municipalities
own 1,4OO acres.
Sawtimber stands total $4,000
acres; poletimber stands, 124,8O0
acres; Seeding and sapling stands,
51,700 acres and other areas, 25,100
acres.
Red oak is the most prevalent of
commercial woods in the county
with $4,000 acres. Other popular
species are chestnut oak, white oak,
yellow poplar, bottomland hard
woods and river birch sycamore.
Timber is being replaced in Gar
rett county faster than it is being
cut, but the new growth lacks the
quality of the timber it is replacing.
By more careful planting, it is felt
that the industry could be kept at
high level and would provide a
continuing source of local income.

Senate Cloakroom
By J. GLENN BEALL
United States Senator iron
Maryland

Reports on the bills signed by
the President since the Saith Con-
gress adjourned are still so fresh
in our minds that they need no re-
lpeating, so this week will continue
my review of new legislation by
once again mentioning a few of the
measures which became law dur
ing the actual session itself.
The list will be my last regular
Senate CloakrOom" communica-
ton with you until the Congress
reconvenes, but l sincerely hope
that | will see all of you in person
during the trips which l will make
through the State in the interim.
Returning to our consideration of
laws which were added to the
books during the second session of
the Saith Congress, we find that
there is now legislation which:
Provides for a more effective con-
troll of narcotics and fixes penal
ties of death or life Imprisonment
for the illicit sale of drugs to chill
dren;
Authorizes a five-year, S7,500,000
year program for Federal aid for
State library services in isolated
rural areas;
And permits Federal Housing Ad-
ministration loans for repair of
homes damaged in floods and other
major disasters.
Other new measures:
Provide for an extension of the
school milk program to include
camps and nurseries for under
privileged children;
Authorize a research program in
forest, range and watershed man.
agement;
Expand the program for water
pollution control to S50,000,000
year for five years;
Broaden the plan of payments to
farmers for water conservation
practices;
And increase the pay of siX-month
armed services trainees under the
Reserve Act from $50 to S7S per
month.
Dates Available Through Office
The preceding reminders of new
laws represent only small portion
of the statutes enacted prior to adj
journment.
If additional information con-
corning them or any of the hun
dreds of other new measures
passed by the Saith Congress is de-
sired, we will be glad to supply it
in answer to individual requests.

Richard H. Hodgson was devot-
ed to his family and friends. In
every endeavor he tried to do his
work well and in this he succeed
ed. Starting out in vocational
life when a young man he took a
position as telegraph operator and
ticket agent at Massey, Md. and
then remained steadfast in that
work. Later he was transferred
to the station at Townsend and
remained in that position until his
retiremet several years ago. While
yet young man he became inter-
ested in the various civic organi-
cations and took an active inter
est in them. In his youth he was
also active in church work and
identified himself with any move
ment that aimed to advance the
Kingdom of God. At one time he
was appointed a local magistrate
and served in that capacity for a
number of years. He was a good
citizen and will be missed by the
many who knew him for his zeal
and determination to serve the
public well. His signal honors
were to serve as Representative
at Dover for one term, and again
as the Speaker of the House a
few years later.

said while here a few days ago
that if we ever get dog racing in
the state he will enter three good
dogs in the contests. He thinks
that dog racing would pay better
than horse racing ever could. 1t

kind of race. Then he added that
dog racing would draw sports
from more than 100 miles away.
Hunters are finding small game
just as they found rabbits and
partridges in seasons before. The
rabbits and birds they say are
just where no one would expect
to find them. A covey Of birds
was found inside the cellar wall
of a house that was moved away
three or four years ago. Never
theless, some good hunting is in
progress and due to good shoot
ing the bag becomes an exception

Mrs. Sarah Buckson was a fine
person from every viewpoint. She
was noble and sincere, devoting
her time largely to the better

homemaker. She had interesting
children and led them to improv-
ing conditions in every way. She
aided any good civic cause and
likewise took a fine interest in
the church and attended services
whenever able to do so. Also her
grandchildren were devoted ones
and they added much pleasure to
her life by remaining loving and
true. AS a mother she was ever
in the foreground as aiming to
set a good example that others

Shades of the Red Men were
emphasized near here a few days
ago. The first buck to be shot
by bow and arrow in Delaware
since the Indians was brought
down by William ]. C. Francis of
Taylor's Bridge. The eight-point
deer was shot in the woods on the
farm of Mr.. and Mrs. Paul But
Ter, near Fieldsboro. 1t weighed
approximately 100 pounds.
AS the small game season has
closed, several hunters tell how
they Jared in cunning for several
days. Bob Jones said he had
good luck. Elmer Ford did better
than he thought he would without
a dog to help him. Tom Hates
had no luck at all as he found
no game to shoot at. Peter Smith
got all he wanted in four days
of cunning near Blackbird. He
said he had enough wild meat to
last his family for four weeks.
The holiday crowds of shoppers

everyone who realizes what the

A stocking that was left hanging
from a door knob uptown was
soon filed by some old folks who

At this time of the year the
firemen are called out to fight
numerous grass fires and the men
wonder as to how these fires get
started. Some way the hunters
start them by throwing a lighted
match upon the ground, and that
ignites some leaves or other in
fiammable matter there.
Results show that the local
postoff1ce broke all records dur
ing the holidays, the volume of
mail being the largest ever to
