iurv. Init NV some strange construction
or maninulation of the law which has
never been satisfactorily explained they
were nearly all excused from appearing.
Sheriff Jenkins was informed at the
interview that it was enforcement that
the people wanted, and that they would
be glad to get it even from the present
deputy. The seizure mentioned as hav-
ing been made of late by Deputy White,
assisted by Deputy Dickey, took place
Immediately after it became known that
the people of the village were about to
make a request along this line in the
form of this petition, and while it has
been a common occurrence to see haul
ed along our streets packages con-
tanning from five to twenty-five gallons
OF hard liquor at time, yet only enough
was procured to enable getting the first
and only fine, and we congratulate our
selves upon having attained even this de-
gree of success.
Let it be understood that we are CRATE
full for even this attempt and hope the
work will be continued, if occasion re-
1uires, to the end that the law may be en-
forced, thus making any further moves
On the part of the petitioners and the pub
lie unnecessary.

FOREIGN GROWN POTATOES
Should mot be Used for Seed. A Warning
to Potato Growers.
Winterport, Me.

Should mot be Used for Seed. A Warning
to Potato Growers.
Secretary Healey of the Connecticut
Department of Agriculture has sent out
the following statement that should at
tract the attention of potato growers in
this State.
Large quantities of foreign grown
potatoes are being received in this coun-
try. Their fine appearance and reason
able cheapness, in comparison to home
grown, is strong temptation for many
of our farmers to use them for seed.
Don't do it. In testing more than one
hundred G0O) varieties our National De-
partment has proven that they do not
equal home grown seed as producers.
The Great Danger, however, is in intro
ducing several new diseases as yet I'M
known here.
The most dreaded is the "Wart Dis
ease" Bulletin No. 81 of the Bureau of
Plant Industry and Farmers Bulletin
4S9 of the Department of Agriculture,
Washington, fully describe the same.
Spongosposa Scab, Black Leg and Leaf
Curl are others.
The danger from these diseases is not
limited to single season, as soils once
infected remain unfit for potato culture
for many years.
SUMMARY.
QD Foreign-grown potatoes should
under no circumstances be used for seed
potatoes.
(2) Such potatoes are not adapted to
our soils and climate and will not return
profitable yields.
(3) Several serious diseases not now
prevalent in this country are almost GER
tain to be introduced if such stock is used
for seed."

HUNTING DANDELIoN GREENS.

II you can't 60 to Africa after lions
you might try hunt for dandelion
green's.
Equipment required, tin pan and a
ease" knife. though of course YOU can
be stylish and use a trowel if it makes
you happier.
Among the things you won't want are
a picture hat and shine on your shoes.
though If you get started with either of
these encumbrances you will soon be eased
OF them. You may, if you like, take a
camera to photograph your game, if YOU
tlnd any, and wheelbarrow to convey
home your trophies, unless you prefer the
more soclable arrangement of a small
boy to carry the pan.
You can't stalk dandelion from the
rear because it faces all ways at once.
The thing to do is to get your eve on it
from the top of steep bank and per-
suade it to stand there until YOU can
come and get it. The quickness with
which you secure it depends good deal
on whether you land head or feet first,
land also whether either of the above
mentioned members were damaged by
the fall.
But If you can bag that dandelion YOU
will have made beginning and secured
some valuable experience that may help
you to get another. You will be handi-
capped at first by losing the boy and the
pan every time you find dandelion, but
there are ways of overcoming this diff
Guilty. The simplest one is to sit still in
the shade of the dandelion and let him
find you. Then you go on together until
again separated by circumstances.
By the time you sight your third dan
delion it is time to go home to supper,
but you know you don't want those dan
delions till next days dinner, so what
your hurry? You can either camp in the
neighborhood of the dandelion or go
home for nights rest and begin again
in the morning.
No doubt you will say that hunting
dandelion greens needn't be 50 strenu-
GUS as this; that they can be found near
err civilization and in more accessible
spots.
Just the same, it will pay you to 90
far atie!d for your game. The more I'M
civilized dandelion is, the filter to eat,
and moreover course of tumbling down
banks in the month of May is good for
that fatal languor that besets US in the
spring. Think of the rest you will gel
sitting in the shade of that dandeiior
waiting for the boy and the pan.
And don't you know that folks go hunt.
ing not for the spoils, but for ease OF
mind? That you can always get out ir
the greening world, even if you have tt

An Unwelcome Prophecy.

The Buffalo News is out with the cheer
full prophecy that we are going to have a
repetition of 1916 this year, and 1916, as
some of the old inhabitants may remem-
Der hearing about, is often known as
eighteen hundred and starve to death. ~
In that year, it is said, there were frosts
in June, and in Vermont 16 inches of snow
fell. In May the ponds were covered
with an inch of ice, and the buds were
frozen on the trees. There was ice on
the Fourth of July, and on the Both of
August snow fell again. Let US hope the
Buffalo News is a little off on its predic-
ton.

THE DUTY OF THE HOUR.

Maine is the second in the list of States
that will lead in the fall elections, and
from now on the issues, State and N a
tional, that divide the respective parties
will be the chief topic of discussion.
After an almost unbroken reign of
fifty years, Maine Republicans enter the
canvass as a minority party. 1t is USE
less to argue the causes that brought
about it's defeat and rout two years ago.
1t is enough to know that if the party is
to reclaim the ground it lost and again
be dominant in the affairs of the State it
can only be done by an organized and
concerted movement upon the enemy's
lines; and in order to accomplish this
end, there must be no faction fights,
no sulking in tents, no digging open of
old sores, but on the contrary every
voter who has the good of the Republi-
can cause at heart, and desires to have it
once more triumphant, should come out
into the open and make himself seen and
heard.
1t is obvious that the Democratic
regime has by no means been delinquent
in fortifying its position. Every oppor-
tunity at its command has been lndustri-
OuSly WOlhCu " lIS CONTINUANCE
in power. The vast patronage of the
State has been parcelled out to the string
pullers solely with an eye to this purpose,
until there is no longer room around the
flesh pots for the hungry place hunter.
With the view of dominating legisla-
ton for the next decade a system of
gerrymanding was inaugurated that is
rarely exceeded in the manipulation Of
politics, and n ore potent illustration
of this statement is not needed than is
shown in the releasing of the towns in
Washington County.
There are times when it is more ad-
vantageous for party to act on the Of
fensive rather than the defensive, and it
so happens that this is one of the times
that has fallen to the Republican party.
This year the Maine Democracy must
submit to the lance of criticism which
the opposing party will insert wherever
there is vulnerable place, and there are
certainly many.
There is no denying the fact that Maine
is naturally Republican State. It was
in the forefront of the grand phalanx of
loyalty and freedom that under the lead
of Lincoln, saved the nation from disso-
luton, and redeemed it from the thrall
of human chattelhood.
The Democratic party in Maine is hav-
ing it's season of jubilee, and it will be!
some time to come before it will again
stand upon the delectable mount of re-
joicing.
1t should not be deluded with the false
notion that the thousands of Republicans
that went into the Democratic camp in
1910 went there to stay. They simply
fell out of line to administer to their
party righteous chastisement, and hav
ing done their work they will return, not
as prodigals Inundated and homeless,
but as enthusiastic Republicans, to be
factor in bringing about their party's
restoration and triumph. -Machias Re-
