NAMES POTATO FARMERS.
Pressure Isle Rem a a BILE for It's Yield
of Tubers-ClOver the Alter
nate Crop Raised.

The regulation farm lot in Maine is
100 acres, but the ease with which
large areas of smooth land can be
cultivated by means of modern, i'm
proved machinery tends to habit OF
expansion. says the National Magazine
Within reasonable limits, the bigger
the farm the more economically and
profitably 1t can be operated. Hence
we find Ia Pressure Isle the average
acreage approximating 200, and large
percentage of farms ranging from this
figure to 400 and even 500 acres. Po-
tatoes, Aroostook's staple, are found
here in fields ranging from 20 to 100
acres, often yielding over 100 barrels
to the acre, and since he has caught on
potatoes, the Pressure Isle farmer Is
able to alternate great fields between
hay and potatoes, so as to raise and
sell an immense volume of both sta
pies, and at the same time actually to
increase the strength and fertility OF
his farm. For the past three years 1t
is very unpretentious Pressure Isle
farm that has not yielding profits total
ing $4,000, while many have run as
high as $4,000 and $4,000. Making
all due allowance for operating ex-
penses, there is margin left that has
made these farms a veritable gold
mine; and it is no wonder that, after
providing himself and family with
ample comforts, and such luxuries as
are indicated by pianos, elegant furni-
ture, rubber-tired carriages, fine dIiv-
ing horses, ETC., these farmers still
have good, fat bank accounts to their
credit.

complete choking Of these exits to the

away In order to get to the fire escape

IN TORNADO FORMATION.
Hawks Rotated In Funnel shape to
Protect Weak Members-Per-
haps Caught In storm.

A curious spectacle was witnessed
here one afternoon recently, according
to a st. John IN. b. dispatch to the
New York Sun. Promenaders in
the park heard shrieking overhead, and,
looking up, found great funnel
shaped cloud of hawks overshad-
owing them. There were several hun
dred of the birds, and all were sailing
around some imaginary center In cir
cling layers one above the other. The
lowest stratum was only about $50 feet
from the ground, the topmost as far
away as the eye could reach.
Independently Of their centrifugal mo-
ton, the birds were going evidently by
force of the wind, in northeasterly d.
rection, which promised soon to take
them out over the Atlantic. They ap-
peared to be moving by some concerted
agreement, sweeping about with the
greatest ease. occasionally giving ut
terance to the only cry Of which they
are capable. One surmise of the curl
Gus formation was that flock OF NIL
grating hawks had found itself In the
heart of a storm, and had been rolled up
nv the wind, which rotated in the form
of a tornado; or possibly 1t was for
the protection of the weaker members
of the flock that they elected to travel
to another country in this curious fash

Washington, Nov. 2.-The president
has issued his annual Thanksgiving
proclamation in the following terms:
by the president of the United
States of America. A Proclamation:
The season is at hand when, accord
ing to the custom Of the people, it falls
upon the president to appoint day OF
praise and thanksgiving to God.
During the last year the Lord has
dealt bountifully with us, giving us
peace at home and abroad and the
chance for our citizens to work for
their welfare unhindered by war, fam
inc or plague. 1t behooyes us not only
to rejoice greatly because OF what has
been given us, but to accept 1t with
the solemn sense Of responsibility.

with us ourselves to show that we are
worthy to use Alright what has thus
been entrusted to our care. In no 9TH
er place and at no other time has the
experiment of government of the peo-
pie, by the people, for the people, Eeen
tried on so vast a scale as here in our
own country in the opening years OF
the twentieth century. Failure would
not only be a dreadful thing for us,
but a dreadful thing for all mankind,
because it would mean loss of hope for
all who believe in the power and the
righteousness of liberty. Therefore, in

TWO MILES A MINUTE.
Several American Railroads Have
Made That Remarkable Record
Mental Strain on Engineers.

The fact that a speed of 1868 miles
sen experimental road in Germany is
interesting, but the engineers in
charge are in error If they think that
this is the highest speed ever attained,
says the New York World. More than
20 years ago a steam engine and car
were driven at over 100 miles on hour
on a single rail "saddle-back" road
built by Capt. j. V. Meigs at Boston.
Ten years ago the Empire State ex-
press ran mile at the rate of 112.5
miles an hour. Two years ago a train
on the Plant system in Florida ran
five miles in two minutes and 80 sec
onds, equivalent to 120 miles an hour.
Some experts think that while there
is no mechanical difficulty in the way
of running trains at the rate of 100
miles an hour or more, no engineer
will be able to stand the strain of such
a speed without a nervous breakdown.
But with a thoroughly protected track,
free from grade crossings, with moth
ing to disturb the mind, and with VI
brations reduced to a minimum, 1t may
be found that a train can be run at
two miles a minute with less mental
tension than is caused by half that
speed to-day-when a speck on the
track a mile away may develop within
20 seconds into a wagonload Of peo-
