The anniversary meeting of the Eastern Shore Dental Association was held in Easton on June 6lh.

The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Dr. A. Smith, president, Denlon; Dr. J. M.

Haymaker, first vice-president, Denton; Dr. Otho Mason, second vice-president. Berlin; Dr. C. P.

Smith, secretary, Salisbury; Dr. P. P. Payne, treasurer, Cambridge; Dr. W.

L. Lowe, sergeant.al.arms, Cambridge. This meet. Ing marked the functioning of the organ, jzation for the first year; the most difficult in the history of any organization. About a year ago a few dentists, with a vision and purpose, set out to organize a dental society on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and took as its territory that part of the Stat.e of Maryland east of the Chesapeake Bay and south of Cecil county.

About 36 practitioners reside in these eight counties and the enrollment in.the association to date is twenty-five, the rosier showing the most representative men in the above mentioned sec. lion. Although an infant organization, it is expected that the members of The Eastern Shore Denial Society will soon be. come members of the American Dental Association through acceptancy of the Maryland Slate Society; this step, if it materializes, will be very flattering to 1 the Shore Shad Disappearing. When dark came Tuesday evening, the last stake of the pound and other fixed nets was removed from the mouth of the Susquehanna river, says the Baltimore Sun.

The Cecil county law requires that all fishing for shad and herring be stopped on June 10. This date having fallen on Sunday, the fishermen began removal of the nets immediately after midnight Sunday and by noon Monday, the pounds had all been taken out. This closes another season of fishing marked by failure. While the net return from fishing this year in the upper bay was greater than that of last year, those engaged in the industry say that it was not worth while and they all agree that the Cecil county law permitting fishing until June 10 should be repealed and May 31 substituted as the closing date. The shad that have been taken since the first of the month have scarcely been food fish and were in ideal spawning condition.

The fishermen declare they should have been allowed to perform the natural function. Just DOW the fishermen are discussing the news that they have received from Washington that their brothers of Kent county are attempting to use political efforts to have tbeir request lo the Com. missioner of Fisheries This re. quest is for the privilege of extending their pound nets out into water ol 25-foot depth. According to the charts governing navigation in the Chesapeake Bay, the granting of this permission would give to the Kent countians almost the en.

tire width of the bay, less a 200.foot channel opening for bay craft to pass through. Fallowing the refusal of Harrison W. Vickers, Conservation Commissioner of Maryland, to take sides in the issue, the people of Kent have, it is reported, enlisted the efforts ofSenator O. E. Wei.

ler to have their wishes granted. Local followers of the water can only see the final extermination of shad if the people of the counties are permitted to entire ly block off the spawning ground from the spring migration of shad.

War on the Caterpillar. An organized campaign among farmers of rural New Castle county seems to be the only logical solution toward the riddance of the Caterpillars" that have invaded the orchards, according to farmers who have became alarmed at their increasing numbers. The old rural adage of "a million in a drove" seems to have become true. Their appearance in such large numbers is attributed to the fact' that weather conditions have been ideal this spring for their development, and they have reached full growth earlier than usual. The only method of ridding trees-from the insects is to burn out the tent-like nests with a gasoline or kerosene torch, or lo spray the tree with some so.

lulion. Troops of Boy Scouts on their weekly hikes, have been instructed by Scout Executive Frank A. Greenback to offer their services in ridding the county of the pests wherever possible.

The Caroline County Farm Bureau, just recently organized, is composed of approximately four hundred farmers. The county organization is made up of various locals or units, a unit having been organized where there are sufficient members to justify it.

The officers of the county organization are as E. H. E. Thieroff. 1'res- ton.

piesideni; Frank Stevenson, Ridgely, vice-president; Wayne Can ley. Denton, secretary-treasurer. 1 hese men are all farmers. ID general, the main purpose of the organization is to study the needs of farmers and then adopt plans of work based on these needs. This is teally of as much, if not mote, importance to the locals than the county organization.

The plan of work of the county organization should be the plans of the various locals incorporated into one big broad program. Portions of this program may extend over a period of ears. Others may be accomplished in a much shorter lime. The motto of every local unit of the Farm Bureau should be: "Plan the work, work the plan." And -this plan should be based upon carefully studied- farm needs in the communities themselves. If the Farm Bureau deviates from this plan of work it is allowing its foundation lo weaken." Secretary Coverdale.

ol the National Farm Bureau Federation, slates, not in these words, but to the effect that he has no use for a local unit which fails to adopt a definite plan of work based on the needs of that particular community. There has never been a local that has succeeded where, when a member asked "what is the Farm Bureau doing?" replies I'l don't know." He can have no respect for such an organization and certainly such a reply can command no respect from an outsider. He should be able to reply, for exam, pie, "Why, we have saved our members $100 by buying binder twine through one of our local merchants for cash instead of on time; we have appointed a committee to look into the possibilities of a live stock shipping association; another committee is working on the marketing of eggs; certain other members have been appointed to keep cost records on producing tomatoes, peas, wheat, corn, soy beans, ajid milk. Each member is planning to have bis soil tested for lime requirements; and we are all going on a picnic to August eleventh. That's only part of our program, and we are only beginning to get started and to find out how badly we need such an organization.

How about signing up in the Farm Bureau? 1 What I Ten dollars too much? That is only ari egg a day. Eat one less each morning. The Farm Bureau is returning a steak large enough for the whole family each morning for an investment of one egg each day. All farmers have been complaining about hard times. The Farm Bureau has corrected a lot of things in the interest of the farmers and plans to do a lot more.

Tbe farmer whp believes $10 too much in this particular organization is surely "penny wise and pound foolish." Mr. Farmer, Mr. Banker, Mr. Canner, Mr. Storekeeper, before you judge the Farm Bureau, just consider where you stand in relation to this organization.

All of us either go forward or backward with our agricultural population. The Farm Bureau, regardless of what some member may say or little local do, is organized on a very broad basis. It aims to live and let live, to build rather than tear down. It alms to help the farmer make a fair living, to sell his produce at a fair profit, to buy at a fair price. Can anyone deny the farmer ibis right? Mr.

Farmer. Mr. Banker, Mr. Canner, Mr. Storekeeper, stick by your local unit of the Farm Bureau.

Boost it, encour. age it. help it. It may not do all of these things for you in return today, but "cast your bread upon the waters and it will return after many a djy." W. COLLINS THOMAS, Counly Agent.
