the electric road to Camden it may be said that
the situation has materially improved of late.
The trustees of Northport campground have
accepted the offer of the promoters of $500 for
land damages in passing through their prop
erty, number of other cases which at first
looked hopeless have been satisfactorily adj
justed, and slight changes in the survey may
be made that will solve some heretofore diff
cult problems. While it is expected that titles
for right of way from Camden to Belfast may
be secured at an early day it is not probable
that the work of construction will be begun
this fall. But it has been the intention from
the first to begin at this end and build the road
to Northport, and if all goes well work will
begin early in the spring and the road will be
ready for the summer business, and the re-
mainder of the line will then be pushed to
early completion.
LIGHT AND POWER. The Penobscot Bay
Electric Co. has bought and taken over the
property, franchise and everything pertaining
to the Belfast Gas Electric Co. and the Bel
fast plant is now under the direction of the
new company. It is expected to furnish light
and power from the plant in East Orland with
in 60 days, but the power station in East Bel
fast will be placed in good order, ready for
use in case of an emergency. Either this fall
or early next spring the wires will be stretched
to the Northport line, and Ira M. Cobe will
have line constructed from there to his sum-
mer home in Northport. He proposes to do
this at his own expense, but others who want
electricity for lighting will probably join him.
There are assurances that the gas service will
be continued by the new company and better
service both as to gas and electricity is ex-
pected. There is certainly room for improve
ment in both directions.

Dry Farming Converts Arid Wastes
Into Fertile Farms

The Dry Farming Congress is now
organized, with some persistency and
determination to be heard from in the
matter Of urging its claims upon the
attention Of the public. The faith
that the promoters and operators OF
this association have in their claims
OF dry farming methods, we'll carried
out, cal.rot be questioned, says the
editor Of the Twentieth Century
Farmer. The experiences and results
of careful and persistent work IN
crop growing efforts are the evidence
that is offered in testimony Of the
feasibility Of dry farming methods
and dry farming as an industry.
1t is not surprising that there are
the doubtful, the skeptical, the I'M
believer in converting the dry land Of
the arid west to agricultural purposes,
the growing Of crops, the cultivation
of orchards and forests, the establish
ing Of homes and the building up OF
commercial interests and industries
on these lands; we say that i IS not
surprising that some hesitate, that
they doubt the availability Of suffi-
cient moisture to grow crops, that
they forecast seasons Of drouth, etc.
All these things had their period and
have exerted their influence to dis
courage and prejudice the mind OF
the public as the settlement OF the
country has progressed westward for
the last fifty years, and yet eultiva-
ton has been the civilizing influence
that has conquered drouth, hot winds
and the barrenness Of the plains and
prairie countries that are now the de-
pendence in production.
