The outlook is excellent for large
crop of sweet corn, this year said
of Agriculture John p.
Buckley, Friday to a Journal repoI ter.
The corn is coming fast, too, and
according to present appearances the
corn packing shops will be able to start
in their work considerably earlier than
last year.
Commissioner Buckley says the out
look for the potato crop in Aroostook
county is good, and the corn looking
finely in that section. In fact the corn
crop is coming pretty good in all sec
tons of the State, and the yield is like
ly to be more than the average Mr.
Buckley says that the potatoes in 9TH
er sections of the State will not give a
large yield on account of the contin-
ued dry weather. He looks for fair
crop of grain in most parts of the
State, notwithstanding the drought.

C. Mulligan, assessors of the city of
Bath, appeared Friday morning before
the State board of assessors to ask for
an abatement upon the State tax

property owned by the Eastern
Steamship Co. which formerly hailed
from the port of Bath, but no longer
does so on account of the removal OF
corporation headquarters to Eliot, in
York county.

AGAINST TAR MACADAM.
Representative Scates Has Strong
Ideas Upon Road Building.

Hon. John Clark Scates of West
brook. who represented that city in
the 18th Legislature. was visitor
Friday at the State Highway depart
ment. Mr. Scates is very much inter
ested in the highway problem and at
the present time is engaged in compil-
ing statistics in regard to the Maine
and New Hampshire roads, attempting
to make comparison as to which
state gets the most for it's money.
Mr. Scates is strongly opposed to the
prevailing bituminous macadam con-
structiou which is being used in Au-
gusta, and in trunk line work in other
sections of the State. He says that
his experience in travelling more than
$4,000 miles on the roads of New Eng
land has convinced him that there are
but three kinds of roads which are prac
tieable; dirt construction, gravel con-
struction, and straight macadam. He
that where the straight ma
cadam has been constructed, it has not
been given a fair show, little or no at
tention being given to keeping it in
condition.
Commissioner Hardison. who had a
long talk with Mr. Scates. Friday fore
noon, agrees with him as to the need
of more care for the straight macadam
but believes that the
Westbrook man Is away off on the BIZ
macadam proposition. Il feel
sure that | can convert Mr.. Scates to
my way of thinking if he will only take
a trip with me and inspect the newly
Rockland- Rockport trunk
line, said Commissioner Hardison. in
speaking of his interview with Mr..
Scates

SIMPLEX SIMPLE REPAIRS
Unusual Facilities for Taking
Care of Car Troubles.

As no chain is stronger than it's weakest
link. uniform excellence OF handicraft Is
essential in any plant and II Is upon rae
tory organization that the superiority OF
an automobile depends. An evidence that
this is realized by foremost makers is found
in the system that has been installed in the
factory and repair departments of the SIM
plex Automobile Company in New York
city.
The Simplex company has the advantage
Of having ts repair shop for customers
ears within ten blocks OK the building In
which us cars are originally built. Ihe
factory is at SD street and the East River
and the repair department is at the foot OF
73d street. bordering the same river. One
large floor Is occupied, equipped with all
sorts of modern light and heavy machin-
cry. such as can be used for repairing and
rebuilding automobiles.
While work IS being done on the car
customers are not allowed In the shop, and
no employe Will take orders from a Gus
toner which have not come through the
foreman I'm the regular way. When work
is not being done on cars. each Is covered
with a cotton slip, which keeps out dust
and dirt.
Owing to the fact that the home plant IL
so near by there is little or no delay In
securing extra parts. for what the service
building does not keep in stock can be OBJ
tanned direct from the factory i'm a few
minutes by means OF the motor truck used
by the company. which goes back and forth
continually.

five times and finally put to sleep in the
