The Money Tourists Bring.

! The American Automobile association
has compiled an estimate of the money
HAT will be expended this season in
trans-continental touring. The figures
are interesting, as an evidence of one
means of keeping money stirring, in
this great country of ours, and from it
we may gain some ideas of the posi-
biities Of the sums that will be spent
= by touring parties into Maine. Every
season the number of automobiists
who tour Maine is increasing and. as
our highways are rapidly put in condi-
ton to encourage this means Of pleas
IRE, it will continue to increase, and
thousands of dollars will be left in
Maine where hundreds now figure.
In the following figures, given by the
national headquarters of the American
Automobile association, we are given
glimpse of the manner in which the
average tourists expenses are divided.
1t is estimated that the number of
cars which will tour the continent this
year win reach 500, with an average of
four persons to a ear. The estimated
expenses of these 800 are given rs fol-

states that 6000 automobiles visited tina;
state in 1911, ana that they left no less
than S2.700. 600. If the slogan of Ameri

America First we should encourage,

dations and by Calling attention to our
attractions. make it Interesting for
these tuorists to Begin with Maine"
in seeing America first.
There are many things which should
be considered in making the touring of
: Maine interesting and profitable 10 the
tourist and every day better worth
While to ourselves. One of these is the
nnatter OF sign posting the highways,
40 that tourists may not only easily
find the best and most direct routes TO
historic and Interesting spots. but
they may know at almost any point
where they are and how far it is to
the next place Of special interest.
Strangers going to California for the
first time are high in their praises of
the sign-posting i'm the Golden State.
That state is now in the midst OF one
of the most important road improve
ments in the country, and it is esti-
mated that for every dollar for this
promotion of good roads, directly or in
directly, 20 are returned to the state.
Certain sections of the state have rap
idly increased their population because
their attractions have been seen by
tourists from other parts of the coun
try. Real estate has advanced on the
strength of the advertising given these
districts by automobile visitors 1t
