1t would probably be impossible for
Hancock county farmer to grow potatoes
as they do in Aroostoek county, IL the
following clipping from the Aroostook
Republican is true:
certain farmer commenced digging about
three weeks ago; he noticed the vines were not
quite dead, but supposed the tubers had had
their growth, and, as It was the season for dig
cling and the weather most favorable. be put on
a crew of i've men besides himself, and finished
his twenty acres in good time, putting all but
the factory potatoes into his potato cellar. Last
Saturday he noticed that the foundation OF the
building was sprung little, but laid 1t TO the
wind. On going out Monday morning, the
farmer was surprised to see his building was
raised up fully two feet. Tuesday II went up
another foot and by Wednesday morning 1t was
fully four feet in the air. and his 2. 200 barrels
were exposed TO the light. He was Obliged to
get a lot of lumber and build addition to
the bottom of the storehouse. 1t appears that
his potatoes had not reached their full rize when
dug and hal Kept right on growing after being
housed. His 600 barrels had Increased to
probably $500. ard he was correspondingly
happy.
We don't like to see Hancock county
take back seat, SO come up, farmers, and
tell us what your potatoes can do.

be no let up in the work of building and of
keeping at the highest point of efficiency navy

The United States wins in the Alas
kan boundary case. Our Canadian
friends thought they had good case,
and expected to win. While they are
naturally cut up at the outcome, the
remarks that are being made by the
Canadian press, which presumably
reflects public opinion across the
border, are, it seems to us, in ex-
tremely poor taste, and hardly in
keeping with the dignity ohthe affair.
