aRooaTooK FLOUR.
Co. missioner Oak Says 1t Is the Equal of
Any Made.

Commissioner Charles E. Oak is just
now intensely interested in the Hour
manufacturing business, as the Hrm o.
which he is q member, has Jusp put IN
!, mill in Caribou, that is bound TO pe
a success. 1t is Aroostook's latest in
dustry and is what Mr.. Oak says Is oes-
tined to become one of the GREATEST Ior
he cannot see why Aroostoek cannot
raise more wheat. as well as other pro-
ducts. Mir. Oaks friends were not over
sanguine when he spoke about puS.img
but the firm thought the matter over
fully. and saw no reason why they couin
not make success of it, as we'll as tne5
do In the mills of the west.
Now that they are showing that
they can make flour in Caribou
they expect to do still greater
things next year. and the people in at
section of the country are making prepar-
ations to put in good supply OF wheat
another spring. They have been planting
more and more wheat each year and 1t
has proved to be a great crop for them,
so the planting of the crop Will not ps an
experiment by any means.
Mr. Gag says the press and the grange
have been calling upon the farmers OF the
section to raise something besides potatoes
40 that should that crop fail them they
will not be left in SO destitute a condition.
The mill of s. w. Collins 81 son, which
is the one TO which Mr.. Oak Is mem
her. is doing something more than urging
ths matter. They have put In q mill
where the product of the wheat fields can
bs sold or ground, which ever pleases the
farmer. In that way the firm is proving
to be benefactor to the farmers OF
Aroostook.
The Collins mill runs day and night.
They have been receiving 800 bushels
daily, 200 bushels of wheat and 300 BUSH
els Of buckwheat, barley and feed. The
capacity of the mill is about 10 barrels
daily. The mill was purchased in Cham

more than pleased BY the products OF
this MILL for with its short time only OF
business it has given wheat cash value

experienced in this section hefore,S0 being

The greatest difficulty Is that the
quantity offered is small, showing the
fact plain ly that the Aroostook farmer
must sow more wheat and other grain,

FRANCE SPEAKS WELL OF THE

Paris. December 6.-The Journal De-
bats welcomes President Mckinley's hope
that q Franco American understanding
will shortly be reached, ''as evidence of
the friendship which was doubtless pro
NOTED by the important role recently en-
acted by the French AMBASSADOR Mt Wash
ington. 1t adds: 'tNot power interested
in the far east is disposed to deny
America the practical and reasonable de-
mands of President Mckinley"
The Temps thinks that, after perusing
the message, no one will be the wiser in
regard to what can be hoped from the
friendship of the United States or feared
from her enterprises. "As regards Cuba
it may be remarked that the President g
declaration is absolutely identical with
the declaration of Great Britain when
that country entered Egypt and where she
still remains. /"
