Since writing the foregoing we find
that this matter of sheep raising has
been under discussion in some of the
Maine papers. The Turf, Farm and
all such matters, has suggested that
there should be an instructor in sheep
husbandry in the agricultural depart
ment of the University of Maine, which
seems to US a sensible and practical sug-
gestion. The 1ndependent-Repo has
also had something to say in regard to a
new era in sheep husbandry in Somerset
county, and we quote the following from
its columns:
Somerset county farmers have stayed
in the sheep business because it paid, and
it pays better today than at any time in
years. But with the shifting of popula-
ton that has taken place during the past
three decades, many of the best farms
are now owned by men who have never
kept sheep. They would keep them now,
but they do not know how, and there is
no one to teach them. This is another Of
the objects of the Association. AS a
slight indication of how such instructions
would probably be sought, President Gift
ford received letter short time since,
asking him to come to "a distant part of
the State to advise the writer regarding
his sheep. The latter offered to pay all
expenses, but pressure of business at
home made it impossible for Mr.. Clifford
to accept.
THE present plan is to ask the Legis-
lature for an instructor in sheep hus-
bandry, such as is already provided for
the dairy industry. A modest appro-
priation expended in this way would
work wonders in raising property values
and the revenues of the State. Waste
places would be made fruitful, and the
upward trend in meat prices checked.
Taking time by the forelock, the sheep
men are now busily questioning candi-
dates for the legislature, and carefully
noting their answers. 'The fortunate
ones who 60 to Augusta will know what
they want before they start"

In recent trip through the West
certain matter was brought forcibly to
our attention. On farms where there
We're no sheep kept, weeds fourished,
fence corners were grown up in bushes,
fences leaned in or out, and there was
general air of dilapidation about the en-
tire place. We could always tell when
we were approaching farm where sheep
were kept; the meadows were clean, there
We're no weeds in the fence corners, the
fences were strongly built and in good
shape, and there was an air of thrift about
these farms. The Practical Farmer.
On trip abroad a few years ago the
writer was impressed with another phase
of the sheep question. Everywhere, even
in the suburbs of the large cities, where
there was bit of ground not under cul-
tivation, there We're sheep, from only two
or three up to larger numbers, evidently
in each case the number the area would
warrant 1t was learned that in many
for home consumption, while there was
of course always market for the meat
and the wool. 1t has often occurred to
the writer that this practice might be
followed to advantage in this country;
but that of course is purely speculative
on our part as we know nothing as to
the care or cost of raising sheep in this
way, and we should be glad to hear from
a practical farmer on this point
AS to weeds and 'fence corners grown
up in bushes nothing of the kind was
seen in England or Scotland, but this is
not altogether attributable to the keep
ing of sheep. Even the streams are not
allowed to meander at will, washing out
here and depositing there, but are con-
fined, like canals, within their banks

Transcript.
No one on earth today will live to see
the liquor question removed from poll
tics. One argument in favor of resub
mission has been that if the people were
allowed to vote on it it would be taken
out of politics. Not so. That it will be
voted down by the people of Maine even
it's strongest advocates admit. What
then will be gained? Will those who
want license or free rum be any better
satisfied than they are with present con-
ditions?
In our opinion the defeat of the Repub-
hcan party in Maine began two years ago
when Governor Fernald was first nomi-
mated The sentiment of the party was
strongly in favor of William T. Haines
but the Kicker methods defeated him.
The Haines men accepted the action of
the State convention and helped elect
Mr.. Fernald but the reduced plurality
showed lack of enthusiasm. -Piscataquis
Observer.
The beginning of the trouble dates
back two years more, when Fernald was
a candidate for the nomination against
Cobb. The Lewiston Journal then made
the charges of Republican extravaganza
and of ring rule which have constituted
the chief campaign material of the Demo-
Gratis ever since. A campaign sheet is
sued by the Democrats at that time was
made up almost wholly of articles from
the Lewiston Journal. 1t kept up this
cry after the defeat of its candidate and
during Gov. Cobb's administration, and
months ago it began attacks on the
Maine delegation in Congress, both in
the House and in the Senate, in which
it was aided by the Portland Press. The
Lewiston Journal also made personal
attack on Congressman Swasey, the Re-
publican candidate for Congress in the
second district, and with the aid of the
Portland Press was endeavoring to secure
Hale who was not acceptable to large
number of Republicans. In trying to
pull down other Republicans it has con-
tributed to the defeat of the party and
Of its own candidates.
Governor-elect Plaisted tells his sup
porters: boys, we must make good.
But will he; can he? If he does there
will be trouble in the Democratic camp.
The old-line, hard-shell Democrats, will
not in that case get what they hoped for
and voted for. They want an era of pro-
scription and destruction. They want to
see the knife put in deep and turned in
the wound. Then where does w. R. Pat
tangall come in? While he had the aid
of johnson, McGillicuddy and others of
the Democratic ring, his was the master
mind, the directing spirit, in the move
ment that dethroned Gardner, put Plais-
ted in his place and secured the latter's
election. While the turning down Of
Gardner was generally looked upon as
mistake that would cost the Democrats
dear, it did not prove SO, and for good
reasons. AS the head of the State Grange
Mr.. Gardner cut a very good figure and
in 1908 he no doubt carried very con-
siderable percentage of the Grange vote
that would otherwise have gone to the
Republican candidate. As politician

EPISCOPALIANS PRAISE

Think Marriage License Acts
Value Is Doubtful.

TRENTON, May 16-The committee
on social service of the Episcopal do
cesar convention. which closed here
yesterday. said in it's report that the
uniform divorce law, passed two years
& under which a final decree cannot
be signed until six months after the
decree is signed, had acted as a deter
rent In many a prospective case. Speak
ing Of the Brown law. requiring license
to'marry, which goes into effect July l,
the COMMITTEES said:
lit Is not certain that the change will
be for the better. There is a question
whether the municipal clerk will take
as much care of asoertaining whether
the parties are qualified to marry as do
the minister's, and as the presentation
of a license Is legal justification the
clergy may grow careless and more lax
in their Investigations.
"It also nay be said that the pay
mentl of 81 and the necessity of going
before a public officer to make the
requisite deposition may deter many
persons from being married"
