Deer Kill Hits
4S7 In 3 Days
Big Boost Will Be Necessary
To Surpuss AII-Time
Record Of 662

At least four hundred eighty
seven deer have been killed in
Garrett county during the first
three days of the six-day open
season. it was announced by game
officials this morning.
The number was thirty-nine be-
low the total for the first three
days of last year and a big boost
during the final three days will
be necessary to surpass the all
time record of 662 kills. made last
year. Many hunters from the Bal
timore area left for their homes
yesterday after the eight-inch
snowfall, and the number of
hunters in the woods yesterday
dropped considerably.
The hunting weather was con-
sidered ideal for the first two days
but yesterday brought a damper
to activities with the snowfall and
poor visibility. Today, however,
was bright and clear with indica-
tions that the hunting activity
would pick up.
Most of the deer brought in were
of moderate weight Apparently
the biggest rack of horns to show
up until this morning was brought
in by Joseph a. Ashby Oakland
showing II points. His buck how
ever weighed only $40 pounds. Nah
Ion NJ. YOder, Oakland, brought
in one weighing 1870 pounds, but
having only eight points. There
were a number of 10-pointers and
one 11-point
The number of women entering
the picture totaled at least six.
They were Naomi Holler Mrs.
Thomas J. johnson, Elinor
Browning, Oakland; Helen L. Lay
man, HyattsVille; Mrs. Daisy Rudy,
Port Deposit, and Betty Ann De-
Berry, Deer Park.
There were apparently not as
many hunters in the woods as in
former years. Restaurant owners
said the number of meals being
served was less than in previous
years.
Game wardens reported viola
tions at a minimum. There were
several for carrying a loaded gun
in their automobiles, and a few for
hunting without a license. Illegal
kills appeared to be few.

Water Supply Is
Now Ample But
Still No Surplus

Oakland's water supply is now
sufficient for all essential needs
but there is still no surplus, Mayor
Russell L. Smith reminded citizens
this week
The statement was made after
the Mayor and the City Hall had
been Swamped with telephone
calls last week when rusty water
appeared in many places and lack
of water in others.
Mr.. Smith explained that the APP
parent shortage was caused be-
cause workmen were engaged in
laying new line from the new
well to the spring on Thanksgiving
day He said they had been hav-
ing difficulty with the pump at the
new well but that this was now in
good working order.
Mayor Smith released a state
ment this week called truthful
information and facts on our Water
Supply" which gives a background
of the trouble this fall and what
is being done for the future. Mr..
Smith says:
Because our citizens have suf-
fered many Inconvenience with
relative few complaints during the
past several months due to insult
ficient water in our lines, and a
great deal of calculated misin-
formation has been spread around
in an attempt to aggravate the stu
alton, l feel compelled to publish
the following facts:
Il Why do we have a water
shortage?
During the Six-mouth period
from April to September, 1857, in
elusive, we have suffered de-
ficiency of 1O.49 inches in our
normal rainfall. Weather records
show this to be the worst pro-
longed dry period of more than
thirty years Records in our Water
Department also show that the
consumption of water in Oakland
has almost doubled during the past
ten years. Much of this increase in
consumption is due to having added
the hospital and high school to
our lines and the growing use of
automatic equipment for laundry
and dishwashing purposes, plus d
healthy growth in new attractive
homes.
~. Where do we get our water?
The town had until three weeks
ago four wells and spring which
supplied our water. These wells,
most of which are ten or more
years old competent engineers tell
| us that ten years IS about the lie
of such wells in this area pro-
duced last year approximately $50
gallons of water per minute large
ly without pumping. Today these
wells which have been pumped

Russidns Report
Success With
Intercontinentdl Misl.

A Soviet announcement tells of
the successful testing of an inter
continental ballistic missile a few
days ago. The results show, ac-
cording TO the Russians, that it is
possible to direct rockets to any
part of the world.
The release calls the missile a
super-long-distance, in%terconti-
mental, multi-stage ballistic rocket
which flew at a very high unpre-
cedented altitude, covering a hugh
distance in a brief time and land
ed in the target area.
Senator Henry Jackson, Demo
crat of Washington, who has
stated months ago that the Rus
slams are making notable strides
in the field of guided missile, said
that we are now in a neck and
neck race with the Russians for
an intercontinental missile.
The Senator said, however that
he does not believe the Soviets
have achieved an operational
ocean-spanning missile but he
thinks the announcement signi-
ies the Soviets have perfected
the necessary tests which precede
an operational inter-continental
: allistic missile.

Income Up 200 Million
Dollurs in 1856

WASHINGTON : The Agricul-

received about $4,000, 900, 900
from marketings in the first seven
months of 1857. This is 5000, 000,-
900 more than cash marketings in
the like period last year.
Prices averaged nearly 8 per
cent higher this year, but the
volume of marketings was down
a little.
Total receipts in July were
about So, 500, O0O, 900, up 6 per cent
from a year ago because of high
er prices and slightly larger
marketings. Receipts from live
stock of $1,4OO, OO0, 900 were about
g per cent above a year ago be-
cause of higher prices for cattle
and hogs and slightly larger
milk production. Crop receipts of
81, 100, 600, 600 were up 2 per cent
from July, 1856, with larger re-
ceipts from fruits and tobacco.
