Maine Is the Place.

Forest Henry who has been in our
state on four occasions to speak at farm
institutes made rather significant
statement on the eve of his departure
for his home in far away Minnesota re-
Gently.
Asking him for some of his impres-
sions OF the east as compared with the
west he said very freely:
81 am . westerner by adoption and my
home life Is very pleasant after q resi-
dence there of "a busy years. We work
harder there than you do here in the
east and probably make money faster
but might as we'll admit first as last
that We do not get as much out OF 1t all
as you do here in the east.
You have many advantages that are
denied the most OF US even after all our
hard work. No, it's no use, the east 10
the place to get the most out OF life
especially IL you are rearing family"
Pretty significant talk from gentle
man who loves the west az Mr.. Henry
does.
Again. We met a gentleman recently
who in the last two or three years has
had business in practically every state
In the union. He is getting along to
that time iu life when he hopes 80 on to
retire from the more active duties of
life aud being naturally interested in
fruit has long ago determined to settle
soon on q small orchard. His family
and affairs are such that he can settle
wherever he desires without severing
any family ties. He has searched for a
location as far west as the state OF Wash.
ington and as far south as Florida and in
fact has carefully inspected several de-
sirable locations intermediate.
Nothing that be has yet seen has ap-
pealed to him from all points Of view,
especially financial point as a location
in old Waldo County, in the Penobscot
valley where he has already procured q
fine location and next spring will have
10 acres not only set to apple trees but
cared for after they are set. he figures
that they will come into good bearing
Just about the time when he gets ready
to retire from q long and active life OF
hurry and hustle and that this will be
fine location to see the sun rise and set
In the twilight OF his life. he also
figures that this orchard II 1t responds
In any degree to the treatment be is
planning to give 1t will provo good In
vestment ON the money he expects to
put into the venture.
