FAIRS MUST BE CLEAN.
Matters of Interest to Managers of Maine
Fairs.
From the Kennebec journal

From the Kenneboc journal.
There is no doubt about it, the man
ayers of the State fairs;in fact, the man
ayers of all fairs drawing stipend from
the State of Maine, must eliminate GER
tain features which have been all too
common in times past. This is the in
tention of the agricultural department,
which has had the matter under consid-
GRAFTON for some time, and it is determine
ed that Il intention of the last leglsla-
ture that the exhibitions given by agri-
cultural societies shall be more for the
benefit Of agriculture and less for the
benefit of gamblers and Oriental dane
ing girls, shall be carried out.
While the conditions are not so bad
in Maine as in some other States, yet
it was a general remark at the close OF
the fair season last year that the at
tempt at reform had only been partly
successful. 1t is evident that under
the strict construction which will be
placed upon the law this season many
things which fair associations did with
impunity last year will land them III
difficulties this year.
Another matter to which the mana
gers of fairs will do we'll to give atten-
ton is that under the law passed at the
last legislature dairy products must be
Judged by the standard score card.
In speaking of this matter yesterday,
Commissioner of Agriculture Gilman
said: "The legislature has felt that the
agricultural societies should do more
for the agricultural interests of the
State and the stipend to the societies
has been raised from one and onefourth
to two cents tor each man, woman and
child in the State, for the express pur-
pose of having the fairs conducted
along educational lines and more in the
interests of agriculture" The mana
gers and committees in charge of fairs
are being referred to Sec. IA of Chap.
60 of the Revised Statutes OF Maine,
which reads as follows: !.
"Sec. IA. There shall be appropriated
annually from the State treasury sum
of money not exceeding one cent and
one-ouarter to each inhabitant of the
State, which shall be divided among
the legally incorporated agricultural
societies of the State not provided Tor
by special enactment, according to the
amount of premiums and gratultles
actually paid in full by said companies,
provided that the stipend shall be based
entirely upon the premiums and gratul-
ties actually paid in full on exhl5ltlon
stocks and products, and provided that
no society shall receive from the State
sum greater than that actually raised
and paid by the society for said pur,
poses; provided also, that each OF the
said societies shall cause the prohloii,,
tory liquor law TO be enforced on al
grounds over which they have control,
and not allow gambling in any form or
games of chance on said grounds.

A Talented Maine Poet.

Mrs. Belle r. Fish, who is visiting
her parents, Capt. and Mrs. d. G. Ricl
of Orand, has achieved no little sue
cess in the literary field, having writ
ten many short poems for the Boston
Journal and Globe. Her latest poem
Attainment, appeared in the Jun'
Munsey. Her favorite poem is of he
native State.
THE PINES OF MAINE.
Oh pines of Maine, Oh pines of Maine,
Thou art so dear to me;
l see thee straining in the gale
Like Stalwart maStS at sea,
Or in the tranquil summer time,
When Nature sleeps and all
Is quiet save thy waving boughS
And top-most branches tall
Grand monarchs of the shade art thou,-
And yet so soft and low
Thou singest now thy slumberous songs,
As in the Long Ago,
When in thy glad primeval youth,
Thy transient shadows lay,
And fragrance of thy basam filled
The woods of yesterday.
And often in my pensive moods,
When far from home and thee,
| listen for thy wndswept voice,
Thy gentle minStrelSy,
There comes to me d perfume sweet,
l hear thy glad refrain
And on my mental vision fails
The rugged Pines of Maine.

PRESIDENT FOR SPORT
Writes Letter to boys and Girls of WASH
inRtOn

Writes Letter to boys and Girls of Wash.
ington
President Roosevelt, always interest.
ed in things athletic, has written let
ter to the ''boys and girls of Washing
contests held at the Fairgrounds recent
ly. The President says that he is
happy to learn, through DR.. Curtis, of
the active interest taken by the chill
dren in athletics, although he contin-
ues that he does not mean that work
should be sacrificed to play. The letter
follows:
"OYsTER BAY, N. Y, August 6, 1908.
''To the Boys and Girls of Washington:
''Thru DR.. Curtis have learned that
many of you are taking an active part
in various athletic contests and ath.
letic events in your city. am glad to
see this. l believe in work and do
not believe in sacrificing work to play;
but most emphatically believe also in
play. A boy or girl who has a healthy
body will be all the better fit for seri-
GUS work, and if the health come
through vigorous sports pursued in an
honorable, straight forward manner,
not only the mind but the character is
benefited.
''To the boys wish to say a special
word. l emphatically believe in manli-
ness, in courage, physical address; but
l believe quite as much in good COM
radeship and a spirit of fair play. 1
hope that wherever you enter contest
you will do all that is in you to win, and
yet that you will remember that it is
far better to fail than to win by any
unfairness, by any underhand trickery.
Keep in mind that it is only by persis-
tent effort in the face of discourage
ement that any of us ever do any
thing that is really worth while
doing. the fellow who gives up when
he is once beaten is made of mighty
poor stuff, and if he thus gives up
as soon as he is beaten in a sport, he
does not stand much chance of success
in the serious conflicts of after life.
The true spirit, the spirit which wins
victories in after life, is the spirit
which fights hard to succeed, but which
takes defeat with good nature and with
the resolute determination to try again.
1t is good beginning for this serious
work of after life if on the Fairgrounds
you learn how to cooperate with
your fellows, and to do your best to
win, while at the same time treating
your opponents with fairness and
courtesy.

The Farmers Telephone.

They've put the telephones all IN
" 18th cases shining bright,
And we can call our neghbors up
At any time at night.
And those who didn't get them say
They wouldn't have them in;
With wind a-screeching thro' the wires
And raising such din.
They say that not for half farm
They'd hear their neighbors ring
Astounding thro' their house till
They couldn't think thing.
But we who have them say: "Oh, my.
We couldn't do without"
/ Since we can learn, at moments call,
What people are about.
"Hello, what are you cooking ?" "Say.
Have you got yeast to spare?"
"Will you be at the dance tonight?
And oh what will you wear? ?"
Say did you see that rig go by?"
Sand is the baby we'll ?"
And, 81 could tell you something, if
l knew you wouldn't tell"
Nay, not for thrice the cost will we
Who have them ever own
That we regret we now have got
A Farmers Telephone.
