The scheme to start a "a, 900 acre cattle
ranch in Maine may look well on paper,
bat until the details are well fixed and
the New YJrk and Western promoters
pat in their dollars and establish the in
dustry the farmers of Maine can hardly
be eXpeo ed To take stock. New York
and Western promoters know little of
Maine conditions and climate if they ex-
pect to feed large herds out of doors from
November until May. There is room for
a great increase of the beef industry in
Maine, but only in accordance with the
climatic conditions prevailing here.
Rough ranch methods will not fit New
England winters. Maine Farmer
But why assume that trough ranch
methods are to be adopted. Is it not
mole probable that men who go into an
enterprise of such magnitude will under
stand what they are doing before they in
vest their money? In this connection
some Waldo county correspondence from
the State Board of Agriculture Bulletin
will be read with interest. For one, we
hope to see the ranch established.

The Bath Independent is still uncon-
WINGED as to the advisability of the one
daily session in a High school, and sub
mits some strong arguments on its side of
the question. 1t says, among other things:
The way to tell, or one way to tell, is by
comparing the scholarship for three or
four years under each method. The
lealth OF i'll health resultant also, though
halder 10 compare, can doubtless be as
certained.
The ACCESSIBILITY OF inadyisablity of one
session at a High school is made more
difficult to decide even after trial because
teachers and superintendent would
scarcely be human if they were not pre-
judiced in favor of one session, i. e., less
work; same pay.
IN This discussion the parents side of it
seems to have been overlooked. From some
expressions we have heard we believe it
would be overwhelmingly adverse to the
one session plan.
