Luce has done, during his administration

| cational interests. During all these meet
ings in Aroostook, Superintendent Luce and
Prof. Robertson took an active part in the
many interesting discussions held.
Prof. Robertson returned home by way
of the Bangor and Aroostook Railroad. He
says the road has undoubtedly very pros
porous future before it. At the present
time it is plying interest on its bonded in
debtedness and it has not yet penetrated
the great fertile valley of the Aroostook
river. 1t is expected that The road will
reach Pressure Isle within a few weeks.
The management of this enterprise has bes n
highly successful up to the present time
The road is doing an immense business in
the transportation of potatoes. The crop
is very abundant one this year. Potato
houses are rapidly being erected all along
the line of the road.
On the trip from Fort Kent to Caribou
the Safe officials passed through the thriv-
ing town of New Sweden. This Swedish
settlement, planted in 1870 by Hon. W. W.
Thomas, Jr., commissioner of immigration,
and State Land Agent Hon. Parker P. Bur-
leigh, has had a most successful history
The Swedish settlers are thrifty people
Intelligent, honorable in all their dealings,
they have, by industry and frugality, estab-
lished for themselves neat and comfortable
homes. Upon all sides are evidences of
thrift and progression. Most of the log
houses erected by the State for the fret
few settlers who went into this,
at that time, wilderness, have
been replaced by neat and substantial
framed buildings. Prof. Robertson was par
ticularly impressed with the evidences of
thoughtful oversight and care bestowed by
these settlers upon their stock of cattle and
horses. The members of the party shot
many birds along the line of the Fort Kent
road. Prof. Robertson says this highway is
in excellent cond:tion-as good as the one
leading from Augusts to Winthrop. Deer
and moose are abundant in Aroostook, and
the woods are full of sportsmen from all
parts of New England and the entire coun-
try.
This was Prof. Robertson's first visit to
Northern Aroostook and Northern Maine.
The weather during his absence was de-
ghtful. The scenery throughout this
county-the garden of Maine-wss grand
and impressive. The great and grow
ing county of Aroostook-large enough
in territorial area for several states,-has
brilliant future before it. One must travel
through this thriving section of our State to
be fully impressed with the extent and
scope of its natural resources.
Nature has certainly distributed her boun-
ties here with lavish hand, and the active,
progressive people of this section know
how to make the most of them.
