The secret service is hard game to
tackle, but, like all kinds of work, it has
its easy jobs. One of them is that of spe-
cial agent for railroad. The agent is
supposed to trace those who steal or de-
stroy railroad property.
When he is notified that a trunk or
other article of baggage is missing he finds
out by its number from where it was sent
and follows it on the books to the last sta
ton where it has been checked. Then he
notifies the police in the vicinity between
the station where the baggage was last
checked and the station where il should

ARoOsTooK FARMING.
A. Exemplified by Mr.. Beckwith Of
Athens.

AS EXempllne0 by "
Athens.
-Four thousand bushels OF potatoes
from ten and one-quarter acres Is the
hnynner cron that J. C. Beckwith Of
Athens finished putting into his cellar
iast Saturday And out of all that were
dn ,y iess than half a bushel were rotten,
while the nronortion of culls is unusually
small Another one of those beautiful
observation-disclosures of the Aroostook meth
DDS in central Maine.
Mr.. Beckwith moved down from Fort
farm Of 10 acres up there, but when he
was offered $500 for it he took no
chances on letting the buyer get away.
And his nose was Just as keen for a bar
gain when it came to buying another
Farm. too. He located the place in Ath-
ems, looked over it's $50 acres carefully,
noted that considerably more than half
could be plowed, and then paid 81 900 for
it as quickly as he could get the papers.
The land was in bad way when he
came tn turn it over, but the Aroostook
treatment was all it is cracked up to be.
Lots of narrowing, lots of cultivating,
and plenty of fertilizer, told the story in
Athens that they do everywhere else.
Three thousand bushels of potatoes came
out of the old fields last year, and while
other growers sat around and wondered
what to do, Mr.. Beckwith sold his crop
and went to work in the woods. He
didn't make whole lot that season, but
neither did he get stung as SO many 9TH
ers did.
There were oats this year where pota-
toes grew last, and the crop just filled
the big barn right up to the gables.
Most of the barn floor space was taken
up with what was harvested from one
acre of corn. In fact the looks of every
thing sets one to wondering what Mr..
Beckwith will do with his crop when he
gets his big farm to really producing.
Here is everything full before he has
turned over quarter of it.
Ter horses, two cows, and few
chickens are all the stock on the place
now. A little later there will be some
sheep, and after the fields are once seed
ed, cows. Then we shall see one of the
banner farms of central Maine. Five of
the horses are of trotting stock, since
Mr.. Beckwith has quite an eye for choice
things in that line. There are two brood
mares, two sucking colts and one year
ling. The latter was sired by May King,
while the youngsters are by Pilot Nelson.
Mr.. Beckwith is so agreeably surprised
with the way his farm produces crops Of
all kinds that already he considers il
worth at least $1,000 more than he paid
for it. Then he thinks that by the time
the Athens electric railroad has beer
running for while, and he is ready te
take life little easier, somebody will be
very glad to part with about $4,000 tt
get possession of the establishment
And his judgment to date makes thai
figure look Conservative. Portland Ar

The Shoe Situation.

In the shoe trade wholesalers throughout the
country are more actively engaged and in con-
sequence are placing larger orders with the
New England manufacturers. Statesmen on
the road are also doing more business with re-
tailers. Some labor troubles have developed
in different shoe manufacturing centers, but
these are not of q serious nature. Indications
therefore appear to point toward revival in
the shoe trade, which has been unusually dull
throughout the year. Trade in leather contin-
ues quiet, with considerably more business
effected in sole than in upper stock on account
Of the fact that cloth and other materials than
leather are still being substituted to large
extent in the uppers Of womens shoes.-Dun's
Review, December Sd.

CHRISTMAS EXPRESS PACKAGES.
Suggestions to Shippers Early and
Avoid Rush.

l. Ship your package early-by Dc
cember 18th, if possible. The express
company will give you small label to
paste on the package reading: "Do not
open until Christmas. - This will give
opportunity for the package to reach it's
destination before Christmas, and give
the additional pleasure to the recipient of
the gift of having it on Christmas morn
ing.
2. Use wooden boxes for packing,
especially for glass and other fragile
articles, which should be we'll protected.
1t may cost a few cents more, but the
danger of damage will be very: much re-
duced, and you should do your part to
safe.
8. Write the address in full-State,
county, city, street and number-on the
box or package, with ink or crayon.
Tags are frequently torn off and lost.
4. If you want to prepay the charges,
write the word "paid" in large, plain
letters on the package.
5. Insist upon receipt, and see that
the amount paid and the value are mark
ed on the receipt and on the package.
6. Write your own address in full
somewhere on the package, following
the prefix: From.
Z. Enclose a card in each box or pack
age reading:

Would Abolish Gang Hook.

AUGUSTA, Me-, November 30. ]. W.
Bracket, chairman of the fish and game
commission, will introduce a bill in the
legislature to abolish the use Of gang
hooks in trolling. He believes the gang
hook is cruel and destructive, as every
fish hooked in this way is killed, whether
of a size permitted by law to be taken or
not. He believes it is unsportsmanlike.
This kind of hook includes some of the
most popular forms of spinner" used
by fishermen in the inland waters of
Maine, and sometimes has as many as
10 points.
