Farmers are complaining bitterly about the miserable condition of the Joppa road, between Carney and the Belair road.

Two young boys, 17 and 18 year of age, hopped on a truck in Philadelphia bound for Baltimore. The chauffeur treated them thrfce of four times to double back action booze.

Labor is extremely short; whole fields of corn remain unhusked. 1 he same state of affairs exists in Harford county. One man had 24 acres in potatoes and offered half to get them out, with no takers.
