Tobacco Raising In Maine.

Pope Gibbs, who lives near Topnng
on X. F. d. Route No. 2 from Augusta,
has been making successful expert
ment this year in tobacco raising
which leads him to believe that to-
bacco raising Tor CONNIE cial pur-
poses II something entirely feasible
under the conditions If Maine soil
and climate and that the farmers Of
this State would find it paving
business If they should engage in il.
Everybody knows that much tobacco
Ii raieed in some Of the other New
England states, notably Connecticut,
western Massachusetts and southern
Vermont but very few attempts 10
cultivate it have ever been made
here m Maine. Occasionally a tobac-
co plant is found in a garden where
its delicately tinted pink blossom
wins for it place Of honor.
Mr.. Gibbs is a native Of Wisconsin,
where his father still lives and where
tobacco is cultivated on an extensive
scale with much profit TO the farmers.
Realizing that the ATTITUDES Of Wis
consin a Maine are practically the
same, Mr.. Gibbs decided last spring
10 turn part of his garden into a
miniature tobacco plantation, secured
seed from Connecticut and 81 arted tho
plants in little boxes in the house as
many people start tomatoes and Gu
cumbers. Early in May they were
transplanted to the garden, about 100
plants in all, and Mr. Gibbs gave them
due attention through the summer
months. The plants look much ike
the common weed known as mullen
although growing taller than mullen.
When the buds and blossoms appear
ed in the summer they were all care
fully clipped off, 30 that the whole
strength of the growing plant should
appear in the leaves. Abou. the
middle OF September the plants were
fully mature and were then cut and
hung up in the barn to dry. This
drying or curing process usually con-
tinues for several months and then
during the winter the leaves are de-
livered 10 the manufacturer who
later uses them in cigar making.
The local cigar maker TO whom Mr..
Gibbs showed some Of the plants he
raised declared that ID size and quail
ty they seemed to be the same az that
which he is accustomed 70 import
from Connecticut for manufacturing
purposes. Mr.. Gibbs feels convinced
that if such success as this can be
made of tobacco raising during a
short season like the past one. il IS
wholly practical TO raise tobacco on
an extensive scale in Maine. OF
course the soil must be well nourish-
ed, but no great amount OF care
seems to be required by the growing
plant, at least no more than is requir-
ed to make success Of our usual
Maine crops. II was an interesting
experiment and it is not unlikely
that the example OF Mr.. Gibbs will be
followed by others in this vicinity
Mr.. Gibbs himself has neither large
amount of land nor has ne time from
his other business to devote to tobac-
co business upon an extensive scale,
but had he time and land he says that
he would surely raise tobacco in pre-
ference to corn, potatoes, grain or
garden vegetables, feeling that the
crop would yield much larger fnan-
cial returns. X nebec Journal.

THE CoMMANDERY.

A petition signed by twelve Sir
Knights, all members of Trinity Com
manders of Augusta, was presented
to the Grand Commander of Maine in
1886, asking to have a new command
cry established at Skowhegan to be
known as De Molay Commandery.
Three of these petitioners are now
living, w. r. G. Estes of this place,
Maniey W. Turner of California and
Temple Cutler of Massachusetts. The
other signers were Nathan Woodbury.,
William Tucker, William Hapgood,
John D. Robbins, Horace W. CLANCY,
James Howard, Mark Hilton and AL
bert Moore. 1t seems that at the
same time a petition was presented
bv Sir Knights of Fairfield and vicini
ty for a Commandery in that town
but the prayers of the Skowhegan pc
titionere were granted and they were
given exclusive Jurisdiction in Som
erset county, which they still retain.
The first meeting was held at Masonic
Hall, then in the REPORTER block.
This meeting place and Coburn Hall
block, and, since the destruction of
that building, Odd Fellows Hall, have
been the only asylums occupied by
De Molay Comm andery.
The first important pilgrimage of
De Molay Comm andery was on the
occasion of the State Encampment at
Cushing's Island in Casco Bay, in
1869. Other early pilgrimages were
the participation in the dedication of
the Masonic Hall in Bangor on June
2s, 1863; participation in the exer-
cises of dedication of the Masonic
Hall at Foxcroft on June %, 1870; to
Rockland, August II, 1872; Lewiston,
June "a, 1874; and to Dexter, June %,
1875, on the occasion of the dedica-
ton of the Masonic Hall in that place.
De Molay has taken high rank
among the Communicates of this
state for it's efficiency in the work of
Templar Masonry, and its members
have often served in the official posi-
tions of the Grand Commandery.
One of its members, EN-. Sir Geo. w.
Cover, has held the Office of Grand
Commander of that body. The pres
ent membership of De Molay Com
mandery is 219.
The names of those who have serv-
ed as Eminent Commanders of De
Molay Commandery, from the date of
it's organization, with the year in
which each was installed, appear in

Probation Work in Maine.

AT the time when the pro baton law
for Cumberland county was passed it
was regarded as something of an ex-
pertinent. How this experiment has
succeeded will be told at the State
Conference Of Charities and Correc-
lions to be held at Auburn, October
q and %, by probation officer, George
Grover, who enjoys the distinction of
being the only probation officer in the
State Of Maine. Many people over
the State have been inquiring as to
the success Of Cumberland county's
probation experiment, and a part Of
the time assigned for this question
will be given over for people to ask
questions regarding the points on
which they wish to be informed. 1t
will be very int resting to know the
number of men who have been
placed on probation and the kind Of
men with whom best results have
been obtained, and the improvements
which Mr.. Grover feels still need to
be made in the system.
The Child Labor question, which
has attracted national attention
through the attempt TO secure ma
tional law preventing child labor, will
also be discussed at the meeting.
Last year a state committee was or
ganized in Maine to study the con-
ditions and see what could wisely be
done. Mrs. Ella j. Mason, secretary
OF the Maine Child labor committee.
will speak on this question. She has
made study of the conditions exist
ing in different parts of the State,
travelling about to see them herself,
and is familiar with the attitude of the
members of the legislature and the
manufacturers. Her paper on this
subject and the discussion which
will follow ought to be very instruc-
tive. DR.. Henry Blanchard, d. D.,
chairman of the Maine child labor
committee, will open the discussion
of this question
All are invited to attend the con-
ference. Reduced rates have been
granted by the railroads.

Valuable Information
Something Every Person in Skowhegan
Should Know.


Nearly three hundred years have
passed since the medicinal, curative
elements known to exist in the Gods
liver were first discovered and recog-
nized by physicians as specific in
the treatment of pulmonary and vast
ing diseases, and as a body builder
and strength creator; but how to ex-
tract those medicinal elements from
the oil in which they were enveloped,
has been the study OF some OF the
most expert chemists in the world.
Now, the process discovered by two
eminent French chemists, Morgues
and Gautier, should interest every
person in Skowhegan. By an extrac-
tive concentrating process they dis
covered way to separate the tonic,
body building and curative elements
contained in fresh Gods livers from
their useless oil. BY this process
Vinol is made.
Because Vinol contains no oil, but
embodies all the medicinal value of
cod liver Oil, with tonic iron added,
it is fast superseding old fashioned
cod liver oil and emulsions. AS a
body builder and strength creator for
old people, weak women, delicate
children, after sickness, and for all
pulmonary troubles, nothing has ever
beell known to excel Vinol. We ask
Skowhegan people to try Vinol on our
offer to return their money II 1t does
not give satisfaction. F. w. Buck
