Mr.. James Rowland, Of this village.
states that for twenty-five years his

sician he went to the store and secured
a bottle Of it. His wife did Tot approve
Of Mr.. Rowland's purchase at first. but

Phohibitionist sentiment in Maine has
reached its extreme development among
rhe farmers, many of whom have stop
ped raising barley for the reason that
chat cereal enters so largely into the
manufacture of malt liquors. The moral
basis of this attitude is invinclble. Of
course, but the general application OF
rhe principle it involves would lead to
some awkward conditions. The manu-
facture Of charcoal might be opposed
for instance. on the ground that it en-
ters into the making of gunpowder, and
thus encourages the spirit of war. The
cultivation of wheat, rye and corn
might be condemned on the contention
mat those crops are the feeders Of the
distilleItes. and grape culture could be
opposed because it contributes to the
production Of fermented drinks. II is
AL question of use and misuse of ma
dive products, and the farmers of Maine,
