East Madison Grange met In reg
ular session September 25 with Ath-

chairs and furnished the program.
over one hundred and sixty listened
to one OF the finest literary programs
ever given at East Madison Grange.
Much credit is due G.. r. oliver, who
had the matter in charge. Special
mention should be given OF the music
by the ladies which was encored sew
eral times. The readings, recitations
and declamations were listened to
with great deal of interest. Last,
but not least were the stories. The
pleasing manner in which they were
told added greatly to the days en-
tertainment. 1t ls a day long to be
remembered. One candidate took
the third and fourth degrees. and
one was balloted on for membership
Sunday, Oct. 3, at o'clock. This
Grange has an invitation to be pres
ent In body at the church services.
1t Ia hoped that large number OF
the patrons will be In attendance

Maine Granite Industry.

The granite business In Maine Is
very prosperous this year. Many OF
the quarries and finishing works are
oyercrowded with orders and are un-
able to find as many first class work
men as they would like to put at work
under long time contract. The
great improvement in business in the
west and south has brought about the
signing of hundreds of very large con-
tracts for the erection of banks, busi-
ness blocks and public buildings that
were designed several years ago to be
made of Maine granite. The panic of
1907 caused the postponement of these
but the markers are
running freely with orders for Maine
granite. Some of the shipments are
Just about being made to Texas,
Louisiana, st. Louis, Chicago, Pitts
burg, Washington, Baltimore. Phila-
delphia and New York. Exceedingly

low water freights between the coast
granite quarries of Maine and the
larger cities along the North Atlantic
and Gulf coasts are big factor in
favor Of the Maine granite industry.

Workshop for the Blind.

The workshop of the blind, just
completed In Portland, will be opened
In October There are two substan-
tial brick structures, the workshop
proper. and the administration build
ing. The work shop contains. besides
the superintendent office. store
room and toilet rooms, two large
light work rooms. on the first and
second floors, and a good sized base
ment. There Is an elevator run by
small dynamo in the basement.
In the administration building the
superintendent will reside. A small
library of books for the blind will be
placed here. Here, also, Is the So
called administration room, where the
directors meet The rooms are fin
ished in imitation of Mission oak
Both buildings were erected by the
State, under the auspices of the Maine
Association for the Blind. The blind
workers will make brooms, baskets
mattresses and cane-seats for chairs
After they have learned their trades
as many as possible will be employed
there. There will be another build
ing for boarding house at an early
date. The association is fortunate In
securing as superintendent J. Calvin
Knapp of Portland, who has done
much to further Its interest.

Orr's Island to Taft.

Citizens of Orr's Island, regardless
of political faith. have united in ten
dering President Taft a lot suitable
for the building of a bungalow. They
do this with two ideas In view, one
being that the scenery surpasses that
of the Massachusetts coast and be-
cause 1t will be "far from the per-
picking buzz of politicians seeking fat
Offices" The donors are correct about
the scenery, for any portion of the
Maine coast Is unsurpassed, but 1t is
not within the range of human pos
sibility to select a spot so remote
that the busy politician will not seek
it-not even the newly discovered
North Pole, perhaps.

60. Acre Potato Field In Clinton.

We are asked the question as to
who In Central Maine has the largest
acreage OF potatoes, and also whether
there are many. II any, In kennebec
county who have rs acres? We only
know OF one Kennebecker who comes
up anywhere near that figure. and
that is Mr.. Arthur Pratt, a travelling
salesman from Albany, N. Y, who
has 60 acres growing in the good
town OF Clinton. They are being
cared for by Charles Hodgdon. and
are looking remarkably we'll. IL Mr..
Pratt meets with any kind OF sue
cess he will next year plant 500 acres
1t is said, and as he is amply able
to do 30 and to take good care OF
them, we hope he will.-Turf, Farm

rh.v DIDN'T Have 10 Chance.

During the years in which our pure
food laws have been put into effect
there has been . great hurrying and
scurrying on the part Of the food man
ufacturers to change their methods to
make them conform to the Law.
The Quaker Oats Company Is a con-
spicuous exception 1t was admitted
that Quaker Oats was as pure and
clean 40 possible and that It was an
ideal food.
1t is so cheap that any one can af-
ford 1t and 90 nourishing that every
one needs Il. The result of last years
experiments at Yale and other points
where food values were tested is that
Quaker Oats has been adopted by
many persons - their food on which
they rely for adding vigor and endur-
ance OF muscle and brain.
The Quaker Oats Company meets
all demands In the way It packs
Quaker Oats: regular size packages
and the large size family package:
the latter both with and without

s0Mg FACTS ABOUT THE OLD
FIRST MAINE.

In Portland, this summer, veteran
of the Civil war and sometime IN
dian Fighter. said OF the First Maine
Cavalry. the regiment holding iis re-
union In skowhegan this week: The
rebels feared the old First Maine
more than any other regiment. The
history OF the regiment goes Tar to-
wards proving the statement which
will sound good In the ears OF the
boys. Their children. also. are proud
to hear of their progress.
The First Regiment of Maine Caval-
ry was organized In the autumn OF
81. and after n winter of waiting at
Augusta, was called TO Washington,
where II shortly began to make his
tory. Organizing with 49 officers and
100 men, the regiment by recruiting.
by promotion, by re-enlistment and by
transfer from the First District Of
Columbia Cavalry, reached total OF
149 officers and 3077 men, total Of
1926 members. OF these, eleven OFF,
GERS and i01 enlisted men we're killed
In action on the battlefield, officers
and So men died of wounds received
In action, one officer and men were
killed by accident; 447 were wound
ed, 72 were wounded and taken pris-
oners, and 539 were taken prisoners
from the First District of Columbia
Cavalry before its transfer.
Almost continuously in the saddle
throughout its service of four long
years, 1t was always in the thick OF
the conflict, fighting often at close
hand with carbine pistol or sabre.
Twenty-nine great battles and six
hardly less terrific, with skirmisihng
after skirmish, made up list of one
hundred and seven engagements. The
names of the battlefields on which
they fought bring stirring scenes to
mind and quicken pulses as they are
spoken. Middletown, Winchester,

their campfire at this reunion, each
of these names suggested Its story.
and with laughter and cheer, the
memories were passed along. but, in
the fun, they did not forget the sad
ness and the sacredness of their SER
vice.
For they saved the day at Brandy
Station and Aldie. Their charge at
Middleburg Gen. c. Fl. Smith has COM
pared to the charge of the Light
Brigade. They suffered hardship in
