Information Desired
Concerning Purebred Aniinalfl
County Agent, Warren Moore iB
compiling a list of owners of
bred farm animals in
County. This list is to be used in a
publication of the University of
Maryland which is to carry namds
and addresses of breeders of pure
bred farm animals in Maryland.
Each breeder of purebreds is
urged to send to the County Agent
full information relative to the
breed or breeds which he owns, in
cluding a statement as to the num
bers of males and females of each
breed owned by him.
Maryland undoubtedly has more
good stdek than is generally known.
It Is hoped to give wide publicity to
the information which is being col
lected, so as to encourage a morv
general use of purebred animals in
the State.
Photographs of outstanding pure
bred animals or of their offspring
will be gladly received by the County
Agent and good use can be made of
the best of these in showing the pub
lic something of the good stock
which is available for use in still
further improving the dairy and
live stock industries of Maryland.

LOCAL FISHERMEN GET
READY FOR EARLY RUN
Practical Fishermen Are Getting
Lines And Weirs Ready While
HoJk And Line Experts Prepare
For S|K>ri.
As in the spring the young men’s
fancy turns to thoughts of love, so
the minds oi the watermen turn to
the prosaic thoughts of fish. The
local fishing season will soon be in
full blast. Many large weirs and
smaller nets are being set by the
local fishermen and it seems as
though the fish had learned no bet
ter sense than to patronize them as
in the past seasons.
Judging from the opinions of a
good many of the fishermen, this
promises to bo an excellent season
in every way. Of course the major
portion of the fish consumed here are
caught in weirs and by the haul
seiners. However the disciples of
Isaak Walton are getting down the
trusty rod and reel and giving it a
thorough bath with a well known
oil, in order to be ready when the
siren call of the pike, trout, bass and
the known perch and hardhead is
heard.
Communication
A communication in Thursday’s
issue of the Baltimore American
sent from Cambridge is not only a
slander on our community but a
gross reflection on our local govern
ment. We cannot believe this com
munication is from a local corres
pondent, for the assertions made are
far from the facts. He says more
drunks have been seen on our streets
within the past few months "it is al
leged” than were in evidence when
the city was “wide open” and
liquors sold across the bau. A
drunken man is a rare sight on our
streets, we do not pretend to say
that concoctions are not sold on the
sly occasionally, but so far as a com
parison of this date, with the time
when bars were open, no man who
has lived in Cambridge for 50 years
or less would or could truthfully
make such an assertion. Our city is
not only one of law and order, but
with v. population of 7,000 is a model
city from a moral standpoint. It is
unfortunate that such a communica
tion of misrepresentation of our city
should appear when our city is filled
with ministers and strangers from
all parts of Maryland and Delaware.
We do hope for the good name of
our city, this communication will be
looked upon as slanderous and un
true.
No doubt the Baltimore American
was glad to have the opportunity to
publish such an article, with their
wet proclivities and its hatred to
prohibition. Baltimore papers are
waging a relentless war against pro
hibition.

Keep Physically Fit
Clay City, Ky.— *T have been in
business here for twenty-one years;
am also coroner, riding the Kentucky
hills and hollows In all kinds of
weather and under all kinds of con
ditions,” says Mr. Sam T. Carr, of this
place. “To be able to do so, I must
keep physically fit, and Thedford’s
Black-Draught Is my stand-by.
“These trips used to give me head
aches, and that, I found, came from
hurried meals or from constipation.
“I was convinced that Black-Draught
was good, so now I use It, and It gives
perfect satisfaction. It acts on the
liver, relieves Indigestion, and certain
ly is splendid. I am never without It.”
When you have a feeling of discom
fort after meals, causing a bloating
sensation, headache, bad breath, and
similar common symptoms, try taking
a pinch of Black-Draught after meals—
a pinch of the dry powder, washed
down with a swallow of water. This

WON’T TOLERATE VIOLENCE
Attorney General Declares Worker!
Must Not B* I nterf e-ed With—A
F. of L. to Back Miners.
Washington, March 24. —\\ aruinj
that the fed nil government would tol
erate no use of violence to prevem
coal production during the threatened
coal strike was issued by Attornej
General Daugherty.
Mr. Daugherty declared he was mak
iug uo threats and that he believer j
a man or set of men have the right |
to strike in an orderly way, but that |
they did not have the right to inter
fere with those who took their places
The attorney general did not dis
close the government’s plans for tht
miners’ walkout, hut it was under
stood that lie conferred with President
Harding and Secretary Davis upon tin j
possibility of a public appeal by the;
president to avert the strike.
Mr. Daugherty said he did not i
believe that the government would
have to wait until there was an actual
coal shortage before it could take ac
tion. His theory, he explained, was
that since fuel was an indispensable!
part of transportation the government,
had the same power to act in the
case of any interference to coal pro
duction that it would in the event oi
any interruption in the nation’s trans
portation system.
The attorn y general, without elab
orating on ids statement then pro |
cecded to say that action the gov
ernment in connection with a coal
strike would boa little farther step
than had been taken by any othei
country, a little more drastic and a
little more specific, but his mind was'
set upon it and only a court could
block it. He added it was probable I
that at one minute past midnight on
March 31 the justice department '
would have something to say on the
situation. , [
Investigation of conditions in the
coal mining industries by a special
commission to be appointed by the;
president is called for in a bill in !
troduced by Representative Bland, oi i
Indiana.
The commission, which would have i
three members, would be instructed tc '•
make inquiry particularly luto wages, i
hours of employment and working '
conditions o' miners, and into the :
causes of the “present industrial dis-1
pule" between the operators and min- j
ers. The investigation would embrace !
both the anthracite an bituminous;
fields.
A. F. of L. to Support Miners.
New York, March 24. —The nation
wide strike of antracite and bitum
inous coal workers, set for April 1,
will be prosecuted “with the fullest
and most effective co-operation f the
American Federation of Labor,” it
was announced here afier a visit to !
mine officials of envoys of Samuel j
Gompers, president of the American j
Federation of Labor.
Mr. Gompers’ delegates came here j
for a short conference with John L. j
Lewis, president'of the United 'line'
Workers of America.
“The purpose of this conference,” a j
statement of the delegates said, “was j
to make possible the fullest and most |
effective co-operation with the United j
Mjne Workers on the part of the ;
American Federation of Labor and its !
affiliated departments aid divisions. •
It was desired that there -night be i
available for President Gompers, the |
latest authentic Information before the j
departture of President Lewis for '
Cleveland.”
Mr. Lewis announced that his or- |
ganization also would have the sup- [
port of the Rail and Miners’ Protec- |
live League in the walkout set for
April 1.
“The Rail and Miners’ Protective
League is a potential source of moral,
financial and active aid,” Mr. Lewis
declared.
By ratifying the program of the i
league, its 720,000 members, he said,
are bound to support the miners with
any and all means in their power.

Chester, Pa., March 23. —A howling

forts to find freedom, that neighbors
complained to the police.
The police reported the cat to the
Ore men and the Moyamensing Hook

; an estate which totals $500,000.
•! The wealthy brother, who just died,
was August Koontz. The two came
to America t* seek their fortunes in

i coming into the anthracite region.
They never saw each other again,
; having lest track of each other’s

l Julius Koontz.
! Through this man August was iden.

, by a scar, which was on ids right arm,
due to an accident when he was a boy

TO SCOUR WEST FOR

'

| Mother Prepares to Start in
Huio Bought Wiili Savings.
' New York, March 23.—Failing b>
I every other means to find her son, a
i mother is setting out from an East
! Side tenement next Tuesday in an
1 automobile she lias bought with hei
| savings to scour the vast stretch ol
country embraced by the single word
“west."
The hoy-—Sidney Leßoy Ross —may
he in the wheat fields; starving in
some city, or buried in an unmarked
grave, hut ids mother is determined
to find him. She is taking with hei
only iier -cat “Spots,” a sewing ma
chine and the very lightest of kits,
j Mrs. Marie Whittaker —she remar
j ried after her son’s birth —says he
may be among the harvest hands. She
sees it as possible that he may have
gone to a city. But she will not admit
the faintest chance that he is dead.
He is alive and tie needs her.
Four years ago in Oklahoma City
they separated. Ihey wanted to make
money, lots of it, because Sidney had
i leaning toward electricity—his fel
low students called him “Edison” —and
he had an ambition to own a farm,
a farm equipped with all sorts ol
conveniences, so that ids mother would
only need to push buttons to get what
?ver she needed.
To bring this about Sidney became
i carpenter in Fort Worth, Texas.
Mrs. Whittaker went to Tennessee to
i munitions factory, but only a few
weeks after she arrived the armistice
•ame and there was no further need
for munitions,
i So Mrs. Whittaker came to New
! York to see her friends. Soon after
she arrived, letters from Sidney ceas

planning to leave for Brewster, Mo.,

Quakertown Villagers Will Try to
Identify Prisoner as Slayer of Con
stable.
Doylestown, Pa., March 24.—Huddl
ed in a cell iu the little Quakertown
lockup is a strange figure—glaring ol
eye, long-haired, with a great reddish
spade beard half covering a gnome
like face.
Twenty-two years ago, Adam Weav
er, a burly, red-haired outlaw of tin
woods and rocks of Haycock Moan
tain, six miles from Quakertown
fought tiger-like against a posse, kill
ed a constable, shot another and,
aided by a wife who hurled scahlint
1 water and fought like an Amazon, es
eaped in the darkness. He was hunt
ed for months, and a price of slsOl
put upon his head, tut he was nevei
caught.
The prisoner—he gives no name ano j
most of his mutterings are uuintelii j
glble—was arrested vithin a handier j
yards of tiie shack from around whirl j
the posse wap routed more than tv.< I
decades ago. Harry Rhodes, chief ol 1
the Quakertown police, arrested bin j
as -die hovered about the spot like c j
troll of some weird Scandinavian j
legend.
Adam Weaver was born in the Hay j
cock.mountai. country. It is perhap.- |
the racst rugged and heavily woodit!
tract within fifty miles of PhiladH •
Its rocks, hills and hollow; j
preclude farming.
Few persons lived there twenty-twr j
years ago, nor do they now. How ;
Adam Weaver kept himself alive, in )
one knew. Twenty-two years ago In i
was about 35 years old. He had sev j
en children, and they and his wit’s ■
lived with him in the three-room 1
shack.
Then the store at Bursonville was
robbed of cartridges and food. Otlici |
thefts of lesser nature had been com i
niitted.
Evidence pointed toward Weaver j
He was not popular. He was of Penn
sylvania Dutch stock, and spoke a!
most no English, nor h.".d any Inter
course with his neighbors. Neithei j
his wife nor his boys were bettei j
known.
When Metas Atherfcolt, constable ai |
Quakertown then, decided to am*;-: !
Adam Weaver as the robber of tin
Bursonville store he deputized Irvli
Mondeau, of Quakertown, and anothei
man, whose i-ame is forgotten.
Tiie posse of three went armed, bj 1
night to Weaver’s shack.
They stepped into the living room 1
lighted by three candles. Mrs. Weavet j
sat sewing at a machine. Weave: !
, slouched in a chair. V shotgun stood
- in a corner.
The constables pulled their revol !
vers.
“Better come along,” sail' Atherholt i
Weaver slowly rose. Suddenly in a
bound he reached the corner when
the gjm stood. At the same time, his
wife snuffed the candles.
The dark interior erf the room was
lighted as though by a lightning flasfc
i when the shotgun went off. Atherholt
fell, bleeding, wounded in the neck
Another flash and Mondeau dropped
shot through the heart.
Atherholt, on the floor, and the
other man, groping, searching about
with his re olver, screamed togethet
a moment. Mrs. Weaver had jumped
to the stove in the corner and snatch
ed off a bucket of boiling watm.
She flung It on the two men, amt
the skin was scalded f -om their faces
They were helpless when Weavet
sprang out and bounded away through
the woods.
Later, Mrs. Weaver was arrested
and convicted of second degree mur
der. Now she is in the State Hospital
for the Criminal Insane at Norristown,
where siie was moved Yifter she went
crazy in prison.
None of the seven Weaver -hildren,
except a baby, were In the hack at
the time of the murder. Now, all
have scattered, except one. Michael
Weaver, a blacksmith at Penn’s Park
in lower Bucks county.
The blacksmith son is going to Qua
kertown, and he may identify his
father.

HOW the cost of building quality tires has been brought down to the lowest
level in history was explained by H. S. Firestone, President of the Company,
to the stockholders at the annual meeting on December 15, 1921.
I. All inventories and commitments at or below the market.
2. Increased manufacturing efficiency and volume production reduced factoiy
t overhead 58%.
3. Selling costs reduced 38%.
Mr. Firestone stated, “This reduction in prices is made possible by our unusually
advantageous buying facilities, and the enthusiasm, loyalty and determination of our
100% stockholding organization.
“Due credit must be given to Firestone dealers who are selling Firestone tires on
a smaller margin of profit. This brings every firestone saving direct to the car
owner."

The Norwalk Vault
Is Manufactured in Cambridge By
W. A. CARTER I
—
It is made of thoroughly
tempered cement, steel
reinforced, abso 1 u t e 1 y
waterproof and air tight.
Several otherwise excel
lent burial vaults have
tops that are simply laid
over the caskets and left
to their own devices, this
of course is handier and
much cheaper, but what
of its safety? The Nor
walk vault leaves nothing |
to chance; its top is se
curely cemented on by
hand, therefore top and i
bottom becomes a solid
piece of masonry.
Order from the Undertakers and
Cemetery officials.

MOTOR TROUBLES
Lack of original power and pep, Use of an excessive amount ot gas and oil, Spark
j plugs continually fouled, Is choppy, especially when idling. Oil in crank case thinned
with gasoline, New and expensive rings bring no results.
All can be cured by REGRINDING!
While Manufacturers or all high grade cars have long since reco
gnized the value of ground cylinder bores, the average car owner
j is still in the dark. It Is, however, so vitally important in help
ing the engine functioning properly that careful thought and study
should be given it by every driver.
Not only on new motors, but is is equally true on worn or scor
ed cylinders to bring them back to their original condition it re-
I quires grinding, together with the fitting of new pistons, rings,
and pins.
In order that a motor may work properly and be correctly carbu
retted, the cylinder must be accurately ground so that the diameter
does aot vary more than .001 part of an Inch as te roundness, and
the hole must be straight and absolutely square with me base of
the cylinder. The pistons will thea bo free te operate without be
ing in a eramped position, thus Inducing undue friction, notse aad
danger of scoring.
