THE Potato PROSPECT. A Waldo county
correspondent of the American Cultlvator
says: MANY old potatoes are still in the hands
of the farmers, and as they are very low, only
twenty cents delivered at the station, they are
hardly worth hauling. Undismayed by the
low prices the farmers are intending to plant
many more than usual in the northern part of
the county. Having plenty of seed there is
nothing else they do but plant it. Libby
Brothers, who are as far we have been able
to ascertain, the largest growers in the coun-
ty, will plant eighty acres on their farm at
West Troy Twice as much field and sweet
corn for the factory will be planted was
planted last year. Practically the same re-
port comes from other towns in the county.
The W. C. T. U. PLANTS A TREE. At the
suggestion of the woman who thinks of things,
and following the example of many other
Unions, the Belfast W. C. 7. U. observed
Arbor Day by planting tree in the Park7a
white birch, named for Mrs. L. M. N. Stevens,
National and State President of the Womans'
Christian Temperance Union. Joining hands
around the tree the party sang verse of
"Blest be the Tie" followed by prayer and
brief remarks, both voicing the hope that as
the tree grows so may the efforts of the W
C. T. U. for the uplft of humanity, strengthen
and prosper. The name-card was tied on with
white ribbon by a member of the Cradle Roll.
At the regular meeting earlier in the after
noon the attendance was large and vote of
thanks extended for aid in procuring and
planting the tree. Delegates were elected at
the county convention in Jackson, June 18th
and very interesting letter was read from
the State L. T, L. Secretary, Mrs. Myrtle G.
R. Ames of Fort Fairfield. The discussion of
the topic, Sunday School Work." was opened
with short paper by Mrs. Brier All who
spoke emphasized the duty of parents to teach
their children, courtesy, honesty and purity.
One quoted the comment of an English friend,
visiting America: "In England, children obey
their parents; in America, parents obey their
children."-E. F.. M.
