The United States of America il the nat.
urai market for the agricultural and mineral
productions OF Nova Scotia, SAYS the West
ern Chronicle, published at KentyiIle. n. 8
Any line of transportation that will give the
most direct. quickest and safest transporta-
ton with good facilities for protection from
frost or heat, (say frost proof cars and refr,g-
orator cars and steamers) connecting west
ern Nova Scotia with the New England
states, must OF necessity open up a large and
prontaoie market for our productions, fish,
beef, mutton, poultry. butter, eggs, hav,
apples, plums, berries. cherries, potatoes.
carrots, turnips, beets, celery, and in fact
everything that our shores and valleys can
produce.
The New England Acadian Steamship
Co.'S new line from Annapolis via Digby,
Eastport, Campobello, Mount Desert, to and
from Sullivan, Maine, making close connec-
tions at Annapolis with the Windsor & An
napolis Railway, and at Sullivan with shore
terminus of the Maine Central Railroad
with their refrigeratory frost proof cars, will
offer such facilities for frequent, quick and
safe transportation of fresh meat and fish
and all kinds of perishable products of our
own country. That our western valleys and
shores must be, as nature intended they
should, market garden for the New Eng
land States
Our people generally have little idea of the
rapid increase of population in Maine, Yer
mont, and New Hampshire, within the past
ten years since the Greelv ''Go west, young

other new feature particularly on the coast of
Maine Is the yearly increasing tide of sum
mer travel which promises to make the bays
and islands of the coast of Maine rival Long
Branch, Rockaway or Newport. Penobscot

summer cottages including the famed Mt

as well as the large and growing cities and
towns of Maine, and in the future give our
farmers all they can do in the way Of ship

shire.
That the New England & Acadian Steam
ship Co., line of steamers must command
large freight as we'll as the bulk of the pas
sengers traffic between Nova Scotia and the
United States appears to us inevitable, pro-
vided first class steamers are placed on this
line and prompt tri-weekly connection made
between Annapolis and Sullivan, tapping as
they will the tide of summer travel at Mt
Desert, Eastport and Campobello, and attract
ing it to our shores and into our valleys, so
interesting for tourists during the summer
and fall months.
