Chas. D. Woods, director of High

nearly three years experience it has
been thought best. since the horticul-
turist has resigned, to try the other
alternative that suggested itself in
1909. The orchard management in
volving the grosser experiments with
fertilizers, cultivation and pruning
will be handled by the chemist and
the practical orchardist; the diseases
occurring on the apple and their
methods of control or amelioration
will be handled by the pathologists
and Psychologists while the construc-
tive will be handled by the biologists.
This is not 80 great change in pro-
gram as might at first seem for the
work in spraying has been planned
Jointly by the horticulturist and plant
Psychologists, and the work in breeding
that is most promising is the joint
planning of the horticulturist and the
biologist. The Station management
deem themselves very fortunate in
obtaining the services Of George A.
Ycaton for the past six years connect

The Bangor & Aroostook railroad
has another of the new gas-electric
motor cars like that purchased last
fall. 1t is a combination motor and
passenger car with accommodations
for about rs persons and a drawing
power sufficient to haul a trailer or
ordinary day passenger coach. 1t has
much the appearance of an ordinary
coach, except that the ends are closed
and entrance is gained from the mid
die. The car received last fall has
been in service between Fort Kent
and Squa Pan and has proved most
satisfactory addition to the motive
power of the railroad. During the
heavy snow storms which prevailed
in the northern part of the State, the
car was taken off because it is not
equipped with snow plows but it will
be placed back on the route shortly.

wide shingle, or two If necessary,
to cover the bucket, and then some
for couple of spare inches. The
shingles are Tapped one over the
other and. fastened with a clinched
small single nail at the top or thick
ends, and by tack half way down.
Then drive in a small hen-wire staple
close to the top center, on the upper
side, slantng toward the tree.
Through the staple drive long brad
into the bark of the tree about two
inches above the pail, so as to give
proper drainage and ventilation, as
the sap win sour If closed in. If the
wind is liable to blow the shingle off
the bucket. use two staples and two
brads bending the brads upward.
Nails instead of the small brads draw
too much sap from the nail holes.
Drive the small staples we'll into the
shingles, else the wind will work
them loose.

A STATEMENT.

To the Editor Of The Georgian.
You published in today's issue OF
your paper purported extracts of the
Anglin trial in Macon which do great
Injustice to Mrs. Anglin.
AS one Of the witnesses and inter
ested only to the extent of seeing the
whole truth published and justice done
all parties. which position | am conf
dent YOU occupy also, l desire TO say
that the statement OF Alex Thompson
was completely and entirely disproved
nv the testimony OF Mr. Groom, clerk
at the European hotel. and the Euro
pean hotel register itself, which shows
that rooms 10 and 1s were not occu-
pied by any women during all the time
Mira. Anglin resided in Macon.
It was also proven that Mrs, Anglin
had not been out of her home at night
at any time during her stay In Macon,
except In the company of her father.
l examined the rooms and Railways
Of the European hotel and positively
state that Alex Thompson could not
possibly see who went in or out of
rooms 10 and 16 from the positions he
said he occupied when he claimed to
have seen the transaction.
Mr.. Jester proved by the parties
rooning with him, and the hotel regis
ter, that he spent his nights when in
Macon at the Dinlller hotel
Mrs Anglin's good character was
testified to by two ladies and three gen
tlemen who bad known her since child
hood. and also the lady at whose house
she boarded while in Macon.
