ArOOstOOk POta= 4
toes Are Saved.

Houlton, Me-, Aug. g.-A wave of cool
weather during the past 10 days has saved
the potato crop of Aroostook comfy fdxi
1907 and mighty are the paeans Of prals%
offered by the growers. =
AS conditions now appear the produc.
ton this year will be q cord-breakers:
but two weeks ago 1t was felt that there
was hardly an even chance for q 50 per
cent. average. ~ 4
This situation was brought about whoi-s
" by weather conditions For about
three weeks during the last of july and
the first of August it rained almost con-
stantly. hardly q day passing without n
downpour from the clouds. The potato
growers were unable to spray the growth
or take any precautionary measures.
1t was believed the wet "spell'' would
be followed by n stretch of extreme heat.
and this would result in an attack Of
rust which would prove fatal TO
large proportion of the crop.
For once the weatherwise were fooled.
and. instead of n siege of hot weather.
cooling east wind struck across the plains
and ridges. clearing the atmosphere and
drying the plants so the growers could
resume their care. Within few days 1t
has become apparent that conditions new
err were better for n banner crop.
Now the producers are beginning TO
turn their attention to the freight PROB
lem, which, like n bugaboo, appears every
fall to harass and distress the men WITH
potatoes on hand and n public demand
with no means of reaching market. Last
fall it was impossible to ship all the pota-
toes grown and called for, but this year
it is expected that conditions will be
much improved.
The establishments of the Bangor "
Aroostook Railroad terminal at Stockton
Springs helped in moving the crop quick
" i'm 1906, because OF the short period re-
quired for each car load In transit. But
the Stockton Springs resources "ere
scarcely equal to the demands made upon
them, although many hundred thousand
bushels more than ever before sent out OF
Aroostook county were handled.
This wear additional facilities have been
arranged at the terminal. and 1t IS
thought that there will be less trouble
than ever in moving the crop. Should the
conditions which appear now maintain 70
the shipping season it is believed that 1871
will prove the most prosperous year ever
known In Aroostook.

MUSIC AND DRAMA
Humane officer Hedaes

Humane Officer Reynolds, who an
nounced day before yesterday that
"Peter Pam the Maude Adams fairy
play, would not be allowed because
children were to appear in 1t when it
came to the Mason July s, hedged
yesterday. He ascertained that the
child labor law didn't apply quite so
fiercely as he thought, especially as
the company comes during school va
cation. He also looked up the child
theater law, which prohibits children
under certain age from being ex-
hibited, "singing and dancing" And
he found that even under this he was
powerless, as in peter Pan" the chill
dren do nothing but sit In circle and
hear a story told. Hence and accord
ingly Mr. Reynolds has pulled in his
horns, and the chances are that Los
Angeles will see Peter Pam after all;
also that several other playhouses
which have been more or less bothered
by Mr.. Reynolds will not be so mo-
Tested for a while.
