For the purpose of showing how the
business has increased i'm the past nine
years the following statement Is MADE
At the time the Bangor &sAfoostook
railroad was opened for business there
We're but four points in the county
which had railroad connection OF
these four points take Houlton, At that
time the territory for which it was the
shipping point covered radius OF
about 20 miles, The opening OF the II.
& A. reduced this territory to about SIX
miles In the natural course of events
it would be expected that the shipments
from that point would show eorre-
spending decrease.
! Have they?
No. Quite the contrary. The aver
age yearly shipments over the b, A,
from H0ultop each year are now nearly
four times greater than they We're over
the G. r.. II, before the Maine road was
built.

In no way, probably. can a better idea
of what the potato crop of Aroostpok
means be conveyed than to give some
figures concerning the shipments made
out Of there, last year. The shipping
season begins about the first or middle
of August and lasts until July OF
course, the first two months Of the sea-
son does not amount to much, so that,
practically speaking, the season con
sists Of about nine months.
In the ending this month there was
shipped over the Bangor & Aroostook
railroad 3,li2,466 bushels of potatoes.
This was a large shipment. fully up TO
the average but yet il shows a decrease
of i35s,6l7 bushels from the year end
ing in July 1902. The reason for tins is
thai the rust spoiled much OF last year $
crop. 1t required to transport the last
cror of the county about $500 freight
ears.
Prices which the farmers received for
their potatoes ranged from 80 cents to
stS5 a barrel, the average being about
$50.
