Somerset Pomona Meeting
at East Madison.

The regular September meeting was
held with East Madison Grange, Tues
day Sept. s. Il was beautiful day in
every particular, just such an ideal day
as would call out large delegations of
patrons from all sections of the county.
Worthy Master, W. B. Whittier was on
hand to preside and the Lecturer, Stew
ard and Assistant Steward, Chaplain,
Secretary, Gate Keeper, Pomona and
Lady Assistant Steward were also pres-
ent. The vacant chairs were filled by
appointment. w. C. Hobart in behalf
of East Madison grange gave a most
cordial welcome to the visiting members
and S. F. Emerson responded for the
Pomona.
The question of our rural schools
came before the meeting for discussion
and F. w. Page, B. l.. Flanders, and 5.
F. Emerson, l.. l.. Smith, Kate B. Ellis,
Alonz) Smith. c. II. Jones, c. E. Smith,
H. l.. Goodrich, VIM. Mclaughlin, f.
| II. Libby and r. w. Ellis took part in
the discussion In the order named. Less
waste of school money, better teachers,
concentration of pupils, more children
| TO teacn, greater interest on the part OF
parents and increased appropriations for
the rural schools were the prominent
points brought out by the speakers.
The decrease in school children and
consequently the abolishing of school
districts and school houses in the coun-
try was deplored as it should be.
E. Ii. Libby, secretary of the Maine
State Grange, was present and added
greatly to the interest of the meeting.
Mr.. Libby says that the grange lie
advancing steadily throughout the state,
and expects the state grange meeting at
Waterville in December will surpass
any previous meeting Of that body 10
numbers and enthusiasm. Waterville
will be taxed to its utmost in entertain
ing the patrons as they come rushing In
from all sections of the state.
East Madison Grange choir furnished
excellent music during the session and
there was a recitation by Eliza Nc
Laughlin, select reading by Mary
Marcia, and songs by w. C. Hobart and
others.
Twelve members were instructed in
the Fifth degree and admitted into the
Pomona. The next meeting will be with
Athens Grange, Tuesday October ID.

No Coal Found.

The State Survey Commissioners
make public the following preliminary
report of their investigation of the coal
question in a portion of Aroostook
county.
1.-THE locality on Fish river where coal
was reported to have been discovered
last year was carefully examined. The
strata are we'll exposed here, in the
fresh cuts of the Fish river extension of
the Bangor & Areostook railroad. A
thee inch seam of black material &C.
ours, interbedded with the sandstone
aud shale, but in composition this is
nothing more than a black mud, soft
sha 9, in which there Is sufficient car
bonaceous material to give the black
color. 1t is not coal
The formation occurring south at
Eagle lake, near the Fish river crossing,
appears to be younger than the rocks
both north and south of this locality
and may represent deposit belonging
to the later Paleozoic. A more definite
statement concerning it's age, however,
must await the examination of the fossil
plants, collected here, and which, it is
believed, have never before been brought
to notice In this part of the State. These
will be submitted to the Paleo-botanist
at Washington and will be reported up
on later.
The commissioners we're fortunate in
securing the cooperation of Geologist
smith, who is recognized expert In
this line. and In the aid extended by
President Cram and other officials of the
road. The most of the way from Ash
land tn Fort Kant WAS travaraad IN a
motor car which the road supplied
This enabled them to stop when and
where they pleased and to examine
carefully all the cuts along the line.
Mr. Smith is to examine reported
coal deposit in northern Hancock some
time next week. To prospect the whole
State is an impossibility; but the COM
missioners desire that ore samples be
sent them, and wherever justfiable an
examination will be made. They should
be sent to State Geologist Lee at Bruins
wick, who is chairman of the com
| mission.

Our Navy

The public is not 80 apt 10 indulge in
vain cnnceit over our navy after reading
the statement of Admiral Dewey just
published in the Navy League journal.
The writer says that popular newspaper
articles are very misleading regarding
our fighting strength on the sea and that
we are really deficient in that capacity.
The United States has completed and
afloat, 10 battleships, armored cruisers,
and IA protected cruisers, making 20 in
all in commission. We have under con-
struction 10 battle ships. eight armored
cruisers, and nine protected cruisers,
making q now building. When these
ships are completed, we shall have 20
battle chips, 10 armored cruisers, and %
protected cruisers, m Aking SO war ships
of those three classes in all. Without
even quoting these figures, which are
official Admiral Dewey calls attention
to the fact that the British fleet in home

British navy and available as an evolu-
tionary Observation-Disclosures 30 battle
ships and 80 cruisers, while the French

II cruisers. of course we are doing
the best we can" says Admiral Dewy,
"but the Navy League should not allow
the people in general to be deceived;
and, above all Brings, should impress
upon them the necessity of our having
a fleet that will combine all the various
elements of naval strength Admiral
Dewey's statement presents an i'm
portant matter in light which is new
and not wholly agreeable to many read
ers, but it is his evident intention to
forearm us by forewarning us. Because
we trimmed Spain so handily is by no
means an argument that we are ready
to cope with fleets which so greatly out

THE TRICKY BRAIN CELL.
what Happens when We Know n
Name Which Escapes Us.


Name Which Escapes Us.
The anatomy of the nervous system,
and consequently Its physiology, was
regarded in the past as very simple.
Cayal showed that the specific brain
cell is an Independent unit provided
with multiple processes, by means of
which it is capable of acting not
through one nerve alone, but several.
This independent brain unit or cell Is
called a neuron. A simple illustration
of how the neuron works Is furnished
by our not infrequent hunt for a name
or an idea which we know we possess.
We feel that the name is there. but we
cannot recall it. We get various names
near it. beginning even With the same
letter or the same vowel sound, yet
only after minutes or even hours does
1t actually occur to us.
What is supposed to happen is that
the particular cell of intellection which
we are using throws out its process
among the cells of memory for names,
and though this process is brought in
connection with cells containing sim
liar names, 1t is only after a more or
less prolonged search that 1t hits on the
right one 1t is as If the telephone op-
orator in the central office felt around
blindly for the connection wanted. and
only after putting the plug into various
holes eventually struck the proper one

Radium on Exhibition.

At the Museum of Natural History in
New York there is oR exhibition a tiny
glass tube containing about two grains
in weight of the newly discovered sub.
stance called radium. In appearance it
is gray powder. 1t is not pure radium,
but compound called radium bromide.
1t is the largest quantity now in this
country, and cost $500 The sample
was purchased through the generosity
of Edward D. Adams for experiments
by DR.. Charles Baskerville of the Uni
versity of North Carolina and George F.
Kunz, curator of gems at the museum,
who have been conducting experiments
with diamonds. 1t is known that when
certain gems are exposed to the y ray
or to the ultraviolet they will glow
with phosphorescent light for some
moments afterward. Radium produces
similar effect. Nobody yet under
stands the reason of it. This substance
rsdium is derived from mineral named
pitch blend. A ton of 1t was used to
produce the two grains of radium. The
substance was discovered in 1906, and it
has marvellous properties, which some
think may be useful in curing certain
diseases.

How 20 Save CantnIoupe seed.

How to Save CantaIOupe Seed.
Cantaloupe seed should not be saved
from melons grown near any other
kind of vine fruit, says Denver Field
and Farm. The melons should be Sc
lected of the right shape, deeply and
roughly netted. from those weighing
from one and one-half to two pounds,
never to exceed two pounds. with small
seed cavity and thick meated. About
one-third of the bloom end of the mel
on should be discarded as 1t will be no
ticed that the seeds in the bloom are
very much smaller than in the middle
of the melon, the same as the grains in
the tip of an ear of corn are smaller
than in the middle. \ good and safe
plan Is to select one melon as near per-
lection as possible, the right size and
shape, netting perfect. discard the
seeds in the bloom end and plant these
seeds by themselves in some remote
part of the farm, SO as to be sure there
is no mixing or contamination with
other vines. Raise seeds from this one
melon for general planting and do this
every year to keep the stock up to per
lection.
