Outlook for Good
Run at Shoe Shop.

The Charles A. Eaton shoe factory
recently started in making 100 dozen
pairs of shoes daily, and the outlook
for large winter run is very bright
at this time. 1t is expected that l25
dozen a day will be made in a very
short time, and this is larger num-
Der than have been manufactured in
this shop, under the present manage
ment, for any length of time.
Work has been quite slack for the
past few weeks, but now large num-
Der of extra help are being hired, and
it is thought that within a short time
more hands will be employed than ever
before. The large increase in the or
ders is said to be due, somewhat to the
fact that the shoes are all made under
the label of the Boot and Shoe Work
ers' Union.

G. S. York Shoe Store.
1863 Water St., Augusta, Me.

Creamery butter is selling at Kan
sas City at As cents, to 10 cents
higher than AT this time, last year.
and local commission men say it will
go several cents higher, in the next
few days. In previous years they say
the market at this season had been
flooded with country butter sold by
farmers wives and others, laying in
their Christmas money and this kept
the prices down. This year, there has
been little country butter offered and
the reason assigned is the decreasing
popularity of the ehurn.

EAGER TO COMPETE
IN WASHINGTON TO
NEW YORK AIR RACE
Those Interested In Aero
plane Industry Here Will
Support Project.

Washington people interested in the
aeroplane industry today gave encour-
agement to the plan of the Aero Club
of America for a race from this city to
New York next month. The National
Aviation Company offered the use OF
it's four hangers at College Park, and
the Rex Smith Aeroplane Company
gave assurance that 1t would enter a
competitive aeroplane in the race. The
National Aviation Company probably
would not enter an aerOplane, but IL 1t
should II would be of the eight-cylinder
Curtiss type.
Glenn II. Curtiss is expected to be IN
Washington during the first part of next
month, an aeroplane show being plan
ned for that time, and II is possible
that he will be one of the competitors
in the Washington to New York race.
The announcement received in Wash
ington from New York today that the
Aero Club was planning the 250-mile
fight as a feature of the meet i'm the
metropolis May 10. 20, and q, created
considerable interest among the local
aviators.
Rex Smith, who has been conducting
the exhibition flights at Potomac Park,
would be out Of the city on exhibition
work, but another aeroplane will have
been finished before that time.
According to the tentative plans made
yesterday, the crsss-country fight will
be from College Park to the Belmont
Park aerodrome in New York The
aeroplanes are to make but two stops,
the Atlantic City lighthouse being the
turning point.
