The Maine Corn and Fruit Show re-
forth from several experts comment to
the effect that there is every reason
why the Maine apple should be able to
compete with the California apple,
says the Portland Express & Advert
ser. While there was remarkable
unanimity of opinion in this respect it
is to be borne in mind that the spe-
cialists who expressed themselves are
not at all residents of New England.
nor of the East. In fact, one man
who spoke in highest praise of the
Maine raised apple, stating that in
quality and hardness it was unex-
celled, was from the Pacific Coast
where he is an expert in this branch
of horticulture. That the Maine farm
er and orchardlst received a sugges-
tion at the Maine Corn and Fruit
Show cannot be questioned, for to him
as well as to the layman the display
of fruit raised in the Pine Tree State
gave no other than a favorable inn
preston rs to it's being an important
marketable product. In the past few
years the question of better care OF
orchards, scientific pruning and spray

tuberculosis hospital for the hous-
ing of patients in the advanced stages
of the disease is a probability in the
near future at Portland. 1t is declar-
ed by the leaders in the movement
that, as no city can spend it's money
to better advantage than safe
guarding the lives and health of its
people, a sanitarium would do more
than almost any other conceivable
thing to attain this desired end. The
site is named as a lot near the city
home, about the right distance from
other buildings and near enough to the
city so that patients might not feel
too far from their friends. The Port
land Telegram says of the move: THE
conservation of the health of it's people
is one of the greatest responsibilities
of a State. In the matter of dealing
with tuberculosis Maine trails behind
several Of the other states. BY this 1t
is not intended to convey the impress
sion that nothing is being done here in
fighting the White Plague but the need
of greater effort is apparent. To pre-
vent the disease is of more Importance
than curing it. Since it has been de-
cided by eminent physicians that tu-
berculosis is contagious, communities
all over the country are establishing
hospitals for the isolation and care of
advanced cases. There is need of such
an institution here and it's establish
ment would be of inestimable aid in
fighting the plague. The tuberculosis
classes are doing a good work by their
open air treatment and teaching the
people how to care for themselves and
splendid results are noticeable. But
what is required is place for the Sc
gregation of advanced cases so as to
prevent the spread of the disease.
