were present, and at the next
meeting at the house of George
E. Brooke held on April 6 the
club numbered 10 members, the
additions being Thomas Lea
and Henry Stabler.
ITO conclude by ventilating a
part of my scientific knowledge,
/ believe no person can claim
the exclusive paternity for its
conception and 1t seems in my
opinion to have come from
Spontaneous combustion and
here endeth my chapter of the
annals Of our dear old club"
The constitution signed be-
fore the first meeting was In
the handwriting of Bentley and
1t has been the basic law Of
this club, and Of many others,
since Its adoption In 1874. 1t
is as elastic as the constitution
Of the United States in the
hands of the Supreme Court,
say its members, and much less
difficult to- interpret.
1t says, in part, q. A free
interchange of ideas upon agri-
cultural subjects will be ex-
pected by all; and if any mem.
Der is making experiments
which will be likely to be use
full or interesting, we shall take
especial care to notice their
progress and results.
when the examinations are
completed we shall return to
the house and after taking tea,
our host for the evening will be
expected to read us an original
agricultural essay of such
length and on such subject as
he may prefer, but it is recon-
mended that a portion of the
essay should consist Of a report
on some experiment in one or
the other of the departments of

years the first time and 10
years the second time. He died
a member in 1889, and his son,
DR.. Augustus Stabler, took his
place.
Edward Lea was still a mem
Der when he died, though his
resignation had been written
and was found among his
papers. Richard Bentley died
in 1889, still a member. Thomas
Lea was more mechanic than
farmer and resigned after one
year.
Samuel Ellicott and Benjamin
Hallowell were honorary mem
bers for some years.
In 1889 it was decided that
sons or grandsons of members
who followed their ancestors on
the farms should be considered
members of the club if they so
desired. This rule was adopted
too late to prevent the present
situation of having no original
farms represented in the club.
The records of the first five
years of the club are mostly
reports on the use of barnyard
manure, Peruvian guano and
bone, with some mention of
lime and its results. The first
mention of guano was at
Mahlon Kirke's farm at Wood
burn, where Is hills of corn
with a teaspoonful of Peruvian
guano made a yield of 1919
pounds of ears, while 10 hills
nearby without fertilizer made
7% pounds.
From then on, guano was
used literally in the neighbOr.
hood. 1t was bought in big
humps in Georgetown and was
broken up in a guanO mill.
In 1849, half of one meeting
was devoted to the question of
whether corn should be covered

Brooke showed an Esterly Irvine
binder that had cut 104 acres
for him that harvest.
In the first crop report. the
IL member farms contained 100
sheep, "A horses and IS head of
cattle OF all sorts. There was
no report of livestock on any
other crop report. but the secre.
tary in his report on the vari-
Gus farms usually mentioned
the number of cows, horses
hogs seen around the barn.
The number grew larger very
slowly, but 1t did increase with
the better crops of corn and
hay. The market for livestock
improved greatly between 1860
and 1870, bringing with it more
interest in the production Of
animals, says John e. Muncast-
er, from whom most of this
historical material comes.
In 1943 there were on the 10
farms in the club 1892 head of
cows and beef cattle, 743 hogs,
297 sheep and 1900 chickens.
In 1861, a vote was taken on
the question that the Union
should be dissolved. The club
divided evenly. Shortly after
this the secretary noted that
there had been some political
discussion which was not con-
sidered proper.
From this there seems to
have been adopted an unwrit-
ten law that political and re-
ligious discussions are not to be
had at any time during a meet
ing of the club, and any mem
Der noticing one starting must
call attention to the rule.
This has worked so well that
while there have been numer-
Gus members of the club in po-
litical campaigns, it has had no

caster served in the post for
more than 80 years.
longtime Members
The II original members of
the club held their membership
for a long time. George E.
Brooke died in 1905 at the age
of SO. He resigned his member
ship in 1891, but the resignation
was refused and he was asked
to continue as a member and
attend when he could.
Broke was one of seven of
the original members who at an
advanced age turned their
farms over to their sons and re-
signed from the club. Henry
c. Hallowell was not a founder,
but he and his son, Frank, who
had formed a second club along
with the other sons, had a joint
club meeting at Rockland, and
George Brooke and his son
Charles had one at Brooke
Grove.
The other old fellows, Will
liam John Thomas, Robert r.
Moore, Richard T. Bentley, VIII
liam H. Farquhar and Caleb
Stabler, whose sons went into
the other clubs, seem to have
had two club meetings a year
on their farms for a while, and
then resigned.
They were elected honorary
members and were asked to at
tend any and all meetings. of the
club whenever they could.

with a hoe or with the new
tangled horse-drawn cover. All
but two advised the hoe.
Seven years later, five of
these II were still using the
hoe. Hand dropping was usual
long after 1873, when member
mentioned having heard of a
corn planter. Eighteen-seventy-
nine found a machine for drop
ping corn at Isaac Hartshorne's
meeting. 1t belonged to Henry
Stabler, and was described as
Opening the furrow. dropping
the hill and covering it, all at
one operation.
Planter Used
Charles F. Brooke planted the
crop at Brooke Grove in 1885
with a two-row planter, and
recommended it highly.
Still, most of the club seem
to have used the old way. They
got the land in order, then
marked it across with single
shovel plows, then crossed these
rows with the same shovel
pillow, then dropped the corn by
hand.
Four men planted from six
to eight acres a day, while the
two-row planter puts in 10 to
IA.
In 1865 there were two grain
and fertilizer drills in the
neighborhood, neither owned by
a member of the club. 1t was
three more years before the club
unanimously approved drilling
wheat instead of broadcasting
it.
Farmers Club members seem
to have had contempt for the
wire binder, which was first
used in the County. There is
no mention of a binder in the
club until 1882, when Charles F.

the farming business, which
we consider it incumbent upon
every member to make.
I'VE adopt for our govern
ment no rules or regulations
other than those which should
always prevail in good society
with the single exception that
it shall be both the privilege
and duty Of each member to
criticize freely the arrangements
that may come under his exami-
nation. :"
Visitors Allowed
The host member may invite
visitors to attend Club meet
ings. This privilege has been en-
joyed by such men as DR.. H. j.
Patterson, in the COS; Sen. Mac
Kellar and Sen. Caraway in the
1920's, and William Tyler Page.
Rep. Gilpit Haugen appeared
at one meeting to discuss bill
he sponsored for the relief of
farmers. He apologized for talk
ing so long, but said he had the
best time he ever had at a
farmers meeting.
William Henry Farquhar was
the clubs first secretary, and
he wrote almost every minute
through 1847. He was selected
as secretary pro TEN for so
many absent officers and was
reelected to the office so many
times that he noted in his min
utes, condemned to serve as
secretary pro tenn"
In the years that followed
there were many who filled the
office from two to five years.
At last in 1897 a rule was
adopted by which every MEM
Der who did not wish to serve
as secretary, on the first of
January of each year, should
pay to the member who would

1884, and his own words are
more conclusive than tradition.
He said, THE origin of the
Sandy Spring Agricultural Club
has been a matter Of interest
and several leaves of history
have been brought forth for the
benefit of posterity. / have con-
cluded to throw in my mite for
its enlightment, believing at the
same time that the old lady was
right when she said she did not
know what posterity had ever
done for us, that we should be
doing so much for posterity, but
be that as it may, the formation
of the club was simply a need
or want felt by several about
the same time.
Indulgences Noted
Zone of the most active was
Edward Lea, who obtained,
through our friend Henry Ty-
son, valuable information re.
specting an Agricultural Club
that had been in existence In
Hartford County, but which, it
was understood, had fallen
through from the fact that 1T
was a dinner club, which
brought with it certain indul-
gences not considered beneficial
to stald and worthy tillers of
the soil.
1.-THE writer of these reminis-
cences one morning concluded
to ride up and see our dear
friend Benjamin Hallowell on
this subject. Upon arriving at
his house, and receiving that
cordial and warm greeting so
kindly extended to me on all
occasions, he said after the first
salutation, I was just coming
down to see thee about form
ing an Agricultural Club
This was a singular .coinci-
dence, but it tends to show that
1t was in the minds of several
OF our people at the same pc
Rod of time.
william Fl. Farquhar, being
one of the most efficient, pre-
pared an excellent paper for
our guidance, which was the
record with the following sig
natures attached: Robert r.

several sons who work the
same farm may all be in the
club.
The membership limit was
set by the clubs founders be-
cause of the procedure of its
sessions. Members meet once
a month-in recent years on
the first Saturday-at the farm
of one member. A foreman is
elected to preside at that meet
ing. Then the club goes on "the
wall" traditional inspection
of the host members farm.
After the walk, the farmers
discuss what they saw, compli-
menting their host on improve.
ments and offering suggestions
for correction of problems they
noticed.
Informal Talks Held
Meeting sessions are infor-
NAL. consisting mainly of dis.
cussions of problems faced by
one or more members in their
farming activities.
Not the least important of a
meetings events is the tradi-
tional dinner, served to the
members by the ladies of the
household where the club is
meeting. Country-style food is
piled high on the boards
chicken, ham, homemade bis
cults.
The Sandy Spring Farmers
Club decided long, long ago that
politics had no place In an Or
ganizati0n such as theirs. So
politics are never discussed at
. club meeting, and the club
has steered clear of controver.
siaI issues.
The club also avoids involve.
ment in charitable OF communi.
ty-uplift projects, feeling that
Its business Of h elping It's
members to bee better farmers
excludes all other activities.
This was the aim of the men
who organized the Sandy Spring
Farmers Club In 1874. BY that
year, primitive farming meth
DDS and overuse of land had
taken their toll in fertility on
the farms in the Sandy Spring
area and local men searched for
ways to improve their agricul-
tural methods. The men who
saw the way to learn these
methods were Richard T. Bent
ley and Benjamin Hallowell.
Tradition says that in Febru,
airy, 1874, Bentley and Hallowell
met on the road-but there is
