Maine Looking To Her Roads.
(Christian Science Monitor.

(ChriStian Science MONITOR
Maine has in view the establishing
of a complete system of continuous
highways throughout the State. This
ia wise. The last legislature passed
a law providing that after the pay
ment of State aid the balance of the
fund may be expended in rebuilding
main tEoroughfares of through travel
There is said to be a growing senti-
ment that the future development OF
the tourist and summer resort busl-
ness depends largely on the construc-
ton of a system of trunk-line high
WAYS. Good grounds for this feeling
may be found without much search.
A great many motors made their way
into Maine from other states last year,
and it will be to her advantage to en-
courage owners of machines by pro-
viding the best roads possible. New
Hampshire is aroused in this matter,
and her legislature at it's last session
authorized the expenditure of a million
dollars for the construction of three
trunk lines running from the Massa
chusetts border into the White noun
tains.
The trunk road of most Importance
in Maine, it is thought, should start at
the New Hampshire line at Kittery and
extend to Bangor. This route is about
1876 miles in length and includes all of
the larger cities of the State.
Another trunk line is proposed to start
at Portland and run to Bangor, a dis
lance of 100 miles. A third would ex-
tend from Bangor to Ellsworth and
Bar Harbor, across the coast to East
port and Calais, some rs miles in ALL
The value of good roads to farmers
as well as to the travelling public is
being recognized throughout the coun-
try. East and West and in the South
Massachusetts has taken the lead, and
now has broad network of fine high
ways 1t is a good investment Of
state funds, and Maine is displaying
excellent judgment in forwarding like
improvements.

has been asked to resign, but just how
the request was preferred the dispat-

The request might have been writ

through the parlor window. Or it
might have been canned up in pho

Editorial Comment.
Regarding Potatoes.
brunswick ReCOrd.)

After gathering information from
all over the county the Kennebec
Journal estimates that the potato
crop of Kennebec county amounted TO
724,451 bushels, which at a price or
fifty cents a bushel would be valued
at S362225. The acreage upon which
the estimate was based was 4416 acres.
The Journal further states it is not
unlikely that the crop in that county
reached a total of million busheis
and value of half million dollars.
OF course that is small compared with
the crop in Aroostook, but when II
is considered that Central Maine po-
tatoes have the lead in quality and
in nearness to market the outlook for
further development of this crop Is
very encouraging.

modern social and economic con-
ditions this step is necessary to IN
sure the equal participation of all
citizens in this form of natural
wealth. which is peculiarly the
heritage of the whole people. The
state is the proper authority to
undertake and carry out the con-
servation of it's own water re-
sources The advantages to be
gained by the state in dealing with
this natural resource have been
forced upon the public mind none
too soon. Even though the profits
may not appear generous in the
near future, our own experience
and the experience and observa-
ton of our neighbors show that in
the not distant future ample re-
turns will result from all possible
outlay. The next generation will
either commend our efforts for
prompt action or condemn us Tor
inexcusable delay.
Our ancestors found unlimited
resources. immense forests which
held the deep SHOWS and heavy
rainfalls in the strong grasp of
their shadows, roots and tangled
underground, and permitted them
to escape in slow and easy stages
all through the dry summer
months. The necessity for stor-
age and stream regulation was
unknown to them. They did not
dream of the possibility of con-
verting their water power into
electricity and transmitting it long
distances, nor did early industrial
and social conditions supply gen.
eral market for power at large
centers of population. To clear
the land was their first effort to
destroy the timber the ambition
of the hardy pioneer. 1t seemed
to them that the streams issuing
from the deep, dark forests would
run on through the future as they
had been running in the past. We
of modern times are met with new
conditions and must solve new
problems. The forests to a large
extent have been felled or the fires
have destroyed them, so that now
the flow of our streams, instead of
being steady and constant, is ir-
regular and unreliable. and unless
regulated their value for power
purposes is bound to be in a large
measure lost While at the same
time there is a growing demand
for power
