The Lubec Herald sizes up prospects
for Washington county as follows:
The New York. New Haven & Hart
ford Railroad company have pur-
chased SO. 600 acres of good land at
Cherryfield, which will be used for
agricultural experiments that must be
of great value to the county as well
as to the State at large, assisting in
the work already being done by the
University of Maine at Orono. At
Gardeners Lake, a little nearer us,
there will go up the building for the
summer home of the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology. which is to
send many of it's students there dur
ing the vacation months for extension
work. At East Machias, which has
suffered heavily from fires the past
few years, the energy of its local board
of trade. headed by Mr.. Geo. Cary.
has succeeded in locating a large pulp
mill on the river at that point, with
the consequent employment of over
90 hands. Jonesport has its coat off,
and its board of trade is bending every
energy toward securing a branch line
from Columbia Falls, so that there
will no longer be the twelve mile gar
that it believes separates it from gooG
connections with the outside world.
Lubec Will undoubtedly see the estab
lishment of a creamery that will begin
the era of prosperity for its stock
raisers and farmers, who may start
the endless chain of stock raising
milk producing, and farming With
cheap and plentiful fertilizer. 1t has
been demonstrated that we can raise
potatoes and hay here, and the bust
ness is growing by leaps and bounds"
