Beautifying Augusta.

The enormous enterprise OF the M.
C. r. r. in cutting through Rines hill
not only protects lives by doing away
with dangerous grade crossing in
Augusta but will result in improving
the aspect of the railroad approaches
into the city, with it's walls and tunnel
of neat and strong concrete. Even
tually probably these alterations will
arrive at a satisfactory conclusion by
the railroad building on Water street,
at the foot of the hill, a new and suit
able structure for depot more appro-
pirate to the capital city of Maine.
And while the Maine Central is ac-
complishing these alterations and
benefits it We're we'll for our city to
improve itself in this locality.
The Journal would suggest NUM-

very simply be effected by converting
what will remain OF Hartford Square
into little park oasis with possibly
touch of color in the form of flow

the point of intersection of Grove and
Green streets be curbed either by
granolthic or turf work into a neat
little triangle. And this also might
be filled in summer time with flowers.

Marvellous Farm Machinery.

A marvellous farm machine that
promises to revolutionize methods in
the great Western grain fields, has
come to light. Should it's practical
operation prove all that is claimed for
| it, the harvest labor problem would be
solved the large percentage Of wheat
spoiled in the stack would be saved;
much other machinery would be sup
planted; great economy in operation
of farms would ensue; more extensive
cultivation of grains would be posi-
toward reduction in the cost of liv-
ing
This machine was intended to
thresh the grain in the field 1t is
said to resemble what is known to
agriculturists as header" The
horses are driven behind rather than
| in front of it. In place of the header
sickle there is a cylinder, ten inches
| in diameter. The heads of the grain
| are driven against this cylinder by the
| driving blast of an exhaust fan. The
grain is then carried back into a
| cleaner where it is separated from the
chaff, which is carried by elevator to
the sackers. The fan and elevator
are run by a gasoline engine. The
machine is made of steel and weighs
$500 pounds.

Why Taft Is Coming.

President Taft has been impOr-
| tuned by the Maine machine leaders
TO show himself in Maine, and has
| finally yielded, greatly to their "un-
concealed delight" He will speak at
| Eastport, Bangor and Rockland, &C
cording to the published program.
Judging by the results of his western
| trip. when Mr.. Taft praised the Payne
| Aldrich tariff and posed Senator Al
drich as "a friend of the people," his
visit to Maine is calculated to do the
| Republicans more harm than good.
Evidently, however the Republican
politicians are relying upon him to
help them in their extremity. But If
the Democratic campaign has already
| collapsed" as Republican contem-
porary assures us, why this anxiety to
call in Mr.. Taft to the rescue, and this
| "unconcealed delight" at his answer
to the call?-Portland Argus.
| A little Argus logic goes long
| way if you don't read on Republicans
are we'll pleased to greet President
| Taft and to listen to him. They are
| willing to take chances on the harm
| the Argus predicts, and they are also
willing to be rescued if he can do
| both at the same time. If the Demo-
cratic campaign has not collapsed, its
balloon has most certainly received
several severe punctures and is COM
| ing down. And contrary to the Di-
vining Rods notion, Taft is not COM
ing to Republican rescue but to see
the Democratic splash

Phones on Southern Farms.
(From Progress. J

In the last year nineteen cities in the
South, through their chambers of
commerce or through some organiza-
ton of the merchants and business
men. have taken practical steps to in
duce farmers to build telephone lines
and connect with their towns.
Funds have been raised to assist the
farmer in financial way and the re-
suit has been ever more successful and
gratifying than was expected.
Farmers in Georgia and Alabama
are now selling their cotton and other
products by telephone at higher prices

risk of finding conditions unfayorahls
The plan under which farms secure
universal telephone service and con.
nection with the compresensive BeB
system contemplates that a group Ct
farmers band together in a cO-opers
tive organization, build the line and
purchase the equipment This re-
quires small cash expenditure. but
the farmers own the telephones, wires,
and other material.
The line is connected with the Bell
system, fiat charge being made for
service. This monthly charge is very
low and when divided among the
farmers on the line is seldom more
than 80 cents a month. The fact that
all the telephones are on one line Is
an advantage rather than an objection
in rural districts 1t enables a
farmer in an emergency to call every
one of his neighbors to his assistance
without loss of time.

go to the Presidents summer home go
because they have important business
to submit difficult problems to be

of entire rest. an actual vacation of
