The firm with whom Mr.. Mooers has

much interested in his venture into

Mr.. Mooers was married II years
ago to Miss Ella Tobey of Athens and
they have one son, Horatio fobey
Mooers, a pupil OF the Skowhegan

Mr.. Mooers, to seek the office OF

since gave no thought whatever to
public office, so tar as ne himself was

The Junior Commissioner

Continued from flIhl rage
lectmen in Madison have had charge
of the highways during a portion of
the time that Mr.. Perkins has been
chairman of the board, and he has
thus acquired recent knowledge of
the building and maintenance of high
ways, which is likely to be especially
useful to him as County Commission
er. Mr.. Perkins is past master of
Euclid Lodge, Free and Accepted
Masons, of Madison, and is member
of Somerset Chapter, Mount Moriah
Council and De Molay Commandery
of this place. He is also Past Grand
of Indian Spring Lodge, Independent
Order of Odd Fellows of Madison and
has served as District Deputy for
both the Masonic and Odd Fellowship
fraternities. He is also member of
the Knights of Pythias, the Indepen-
dent Order of Foresters and the
Knights of the Macoabees.
Mr. Perkins father, now 80 years of
age, served two terms in the Maine
House of representatives, 1860 and
1880. Madison was their ancestral
home, so far as the two generations
mentioned in this account are con-
cerned and the present county COM
missioner was the youngest of a
family of ten children.
Mr.. Perkins has wrought out his
own career by persistent industry and
faithful attention to every trust com
mitted to his care. 1t is easy to be-
lieve that the manifold duties which
will now devolve upon him as one of
the board, to whom are entrusted the
of nf3o nf
County, will be efficiently performed.

Increase in Game Animals in Maine


Shipments of deer and moose over
the Bangor & Aroostook fell off
greatly as compared with those of the
last Is days of open season in 1907.
The moose shipments show the falling
off most acutely, there being a de-
crease reported of 100 moose of the
107 sent over the road in December,
1907. The deer shipments are but 40
per cent. of what they were a year
ago, when the total of deer carried for
the last half month of the six weeks
allowed as open season was gle.
The shipments for December of this
year amount to Alb deer, seven moose
and no bears-last year there were 2s
bears shipped. The record for the
season, however, shows grand total
of 3515 deer, 1l9 moose and II bears
This is a distinct decrease in the
numbers of moose and bears shipped,
but considering the number of game
packages" given into the care of the
express companies for transportation
there were handled this season IFS
more pieces of game than during the
season of 1907 over the same system,
even though there is a reported de-
crease in the moose shipme hts of 1876
moose and As bears.
OF the various stations. Greenville
easily leads with 10 deer, more than
twice as many as sent out by the next
highest, Patten, which shipped 1922.
Patten, second in deer shipments,
was ahead of all competitors for
moose shipments, registering total
of % for the season, the next nearest
being Norcross with an even dozen
and Greenvllle and Masardis with 10
each. Shipments by comparatively
small stations of large numbers of
deer, emphasize the fact that the deer
are shifting their feeding grounds
with each season and no man may
know where they are liable to be
plentiful another season. CRYSTAL
with PIC, Grindstone with 2l3, and
Norcross with Pill, are some OF the
points to be borne in mind by the
prospective hunter of the season of
1909. Other records that are interest
ing as indicating where deer were
found this season, are Masardis, 19s
deer; Shirley, 1877; Stacyville, 1903;
and Katahdin Iron Works, 100,
Altogether the records show that
there is a great increase in game ami
mails in the forests of the state, the
lack of hunters alone being response
bic for the dlminution in the number
of game animals killed.
