Of their grain when ii was reported from
Winnipeg that the rust that had ruined
the crops of Minnesota and the Ddko-

APPROPRIATIONS ETC. FOR THE
BENEFIT OF THE FARMERS.

The eXiSencies must indeed be great
when it is thought necessary to under
take to array one great industry against
another
The fish and game industry has no
controversy with the farming industry;
it never has had any, it never will have
any.
In 1852, the year this ease goes back
to for q starter, there was not one land
locked salmon in Maine. where there are
10 DOp today Then there were but four
lakes in al Maine where there We're any
ut all, viz: Sebago. Sehcc. Green and
Grand lakes. Now thcr" are hundreds
where they abound. Then there WAS
not one moose or deer where there are
hundreds. today. Then there WAS not
our visitors to our inland territory
where there are tens of thousands. to-
dav. Then not one dollar was left in
Maine by tourists to our inland terri
tory where scores of thousands Of dol
lars are left. today The farmers of
Maine are too intelligent to be misled
by such misleading statements as are
printed on this card.
The good, hard commOn-sense Of the
common people we can safely trust to
roach out the host results: it will al
vavs assert itself. I commend to you,
nv friends. the facts of the history Of
our beloved State in this regard.
| thank you for your cordial recep-
ton. kind attention, and with You God
sDeed all your labors.

In the early days Of fish culture the

Have the farmers of this State ever
been to the Legislature and asked for
anything they did not get? If so, | do
not recall it, in my time. Possibly they
have been too modest, and have not
asked for what they needed. but they
had in 1909 the fnllowing-not enough

They confirm also previous reports

The indications are that Vinita will |
have a new Touring mill at an early
date. Mr.. II. f. Shueltz, represent
ing the Carey Milling Co., OF Enid, o.
r., was here last week and In company
with president Lahman OF the Com
mercial club, went over the town care
fully In search Of a location.
This company has a mill at Drum
mond, twelve miles east of Enid on
the Frisco, and wanted location on
the same road here. Frank Anderson,
industrial agent OF the Frisco, was at
once advised OF this fact and came
down In person. He stated 10 Mr..
Lahman that If the Carey Milling Co.
wanted location on the Frisco at
Vinita he had no doubt the matter
could be arranged. MIR. Shueltz, who
had returned to Enid, was advised Of
the Frisco's action aud writes that
Mr.. Carey, the head OF the company,
will be IN Yinita soon TO look over the
field.
These people purpose putting IN a
80 barrel mill, good enough and large
enough to meet all competition. The
success OF a mill depends, In a meas
ure, upon the raising Of wheat IN its
locality, and We all know that few
years ago this was one Of our staple
crops, and Is yet, short distance away.
Mr.. Hobbs, the Oswego's grain buyer,
stated yesterday that inquiry had lead
