Special Farming Special for Aroos-
took County.

1t has been definitely settled that
Farming Special train viii he run
through Aroostook county sometime
during the spring or early summer.
This arrangement is made possible
through the cooperation of the
Maine Department Of Agriculture. the
College of Agriculture and the Ban
sor & Aroostook railroad This mat
ter has been under advisement be
tween the College of Agriculture and
the Department of Agriculture for
feeling that a Farming Special would
be of material assistance 10 the asri-
culture of Aroostook County and
stimulate an interest in more diver
sitied agricultural practice.
Al conference recently held be
tween Mr. Todd. general manager of
the raiIroad. Commissioner of Agri-
culture. and a representative of the
College of Agriculture. Mr. Todd said
that the Bangor 4 Aroostook railroad
was vitality interes ed in the prosper
ity Of the Aroostook farmers and VAS
only too glad 10 cooperate in this
manner. and would furnish train
and bear all necessary expenses in
Cidental thereto The Department of
Agriculture and the College will CO.
operate in furnishing material tor
exhibits and Instructors to accompany
the train. II is planned to devote
one car to live stock in which there
shall be an exhibit of representatives
of the different dairy breeds Other
kinds of live stock will undoubtedly
be shown on the train Seed I'm
proyement will also be made one of
the educational features of the trip
1t is expected that it will require
at least a week to cover the entire
county. The exact date on which the
train will be started is now under ad-
visement, and together with the itin-
erary of the trip viii be announced
at an early date.
The Farming Special has come TO
be recognized as one OF the best
means for teaching up-to-date agri-
cultural practices. and wherever run
they are attracting large crowds of
people III lHe western states many
such trains are devoted to the teach
ing of one line of forming only. This
practice has been found to be adyan-
tageous The Farming Special idea
has not vet. however. deyeloped far
enough in M;ine TO adopt that pl.n at
the present time.
