DIED AMONG FRIENDS
"Billy'' Mansfield Dies in Langdol
Among Many Friends But Has
No Relatives Here

A sad event in Langdon was the pass
ing away Thursday night of William
Mansfield, who died after a lingering
illness of tuberculosis at his room in the
Columbia hotel. Death came as a release
to suffering after having been in an in
valid condition the greater part of the
year now drawing to a close.
"Billy" Mansfield was alone, as far
as immediate friends we're concerned,
but since it became known that hopes
for his recovery had been given up by
his doctors had not been either alone or
friendless. He had made many friends
since first coming to Cavalier county
about ten years ago. First coming to
Osnabrock, where he worked on a farm,
later since making Langdon his home
he had been in the employ of Rev. M.
Dougherty and others, who learned we'll
to know him as a steady industrious
young man and willing always to make
an honest living until his health broke
down.
Or his earlier life it is known that
along with two of his orphan brothers
he came out to Montreal, Canada, in
1895 when about ten years old. One of
the brothers is known to be still in
Canada and another, younger than the
deceased is thought to be somewhere
in the southern states. He is not
believed to have any other relatives
living.
Since his condition was known to
have become serious about two weeks
ago many friends, especially among the
older residents, did all they could to
make the passing days of his life as easy
and peaceful as possible, and when the
funeral was held Saturday forenoon
from st. Alphonsus church the occasion
was shswn q duo respect which his lie
IN cssasAnnity falaly deserved.

New England Farms .

The April and initial number of
monthly agricultural bulletin called "New
England Farms, issued by the industrial
department OF the Maine Central Railroad
Co. and intended for free distribution
among present and prospective farmers OF
Maine, made its appearance this week.
1t is an interesting little publication,
made up OF thirty-two pages, 6x10 in size.
1t has departments on horses and other
animals, vegetables, the dairy, poultry,
tree fruits, small fruits and farm homes,
and the advertising patronage OF business
houses shows a generous appreciation OF
the railroads efforts to arouse interest in
and develop New England agriculture.
An opportunity for farmers which is
| the subject OF an editorial reference re-
lates to the growing OF strawberries in
| southern Maine, northern Massachusetts,,
and southern and central New Hampshire
| to supply the constantly increasing de-
| mands for the fruit in New York, Phila-
| delphia, Washington and Baltimore and
surrounding communities, after the local
| production in those places reaches the
end of the season. 1t is pointed out, also,
that the New England home demand for
''natives" is as yet but partially filled.
A leading article relates to the advan-
tage OF combining fruit and poultry raising
| and there is an interesting story of how
an Ohio travelling man, worn out
| physically and mentally, purchased an un-
occupied New England farm and found
health and prosperity in raising poultry
and dogs. There are several interesting
| suggestions and timely hints, and the
! publication as a whole develops spirit of
| hopefulness and courage which cannot
| fail to be of benefit to its readers.
| "New England Farms" will be mailed
without charge to present and prospective
farmers who send their names and ad-
dresses to the industrial department,
Maine Central Railroad Co., Portland.

tMr. Phillips letter was submitted to
Col. F. E. Boothby, general passenger
agent of the Maine Central, and it
brought the following reply:
"The rules regarding railroad advertising
are that the initial lines shall arrange for the
same, and we are all the time endeavoring to
bring Maine to the front so that the western
roads will show Maine as an objective point
in summer as much as they do Florida in
winter.
"While theMaine Central may not have done
any special advertising in western papers, 1t
has each year in southern papers, and during
the spring fishing and fall hunting seasons
carries advertisements in nearly all Of the
dailies in the eastern states as far south as
Washington and west Of Pittsburgh.
"For the year ending June 80, 1869, as per
our annual report, we paid on account Of ad-
vertising s25,s32. 80; the Washington County
expended $l,l8O.45, and the Somerset Railway
Co. $S42.25.
"Our pamphlets are regularly sent to such
addresses as we are able to obtain, and
monthly to all OF the principal ticket agents
throughout the country. The Bangor &
Aroostook spent in advertising year ending
June 80, 1909, s7,70928; the Boston and Maine
$l5s,s7s,0l. In connection with what the
Boston & Maine Is doing to influence travel
into Maine, the ground is, to my mind, we'll
covered.
"Ipresume you know of the additional duties
given at the last legislature to the COM
missioner OF industrial statistics, etc., with a
view of helping to advertise Maine, and the
industrial department which we are to create
will materially aid.
"Your communication, however, gives me
an idea that it might be well to stir up the
roads in the West with view Of their more
prominently mentioning our State in their
