The bridge between Orr's Island
and Great Island in HarpsweIl, which
has been closed to travel since last
summer, has been opened the past
week. The plans made for the bridge
between Orr's and Baileys islands
which were made by the selectmen of
Harpswell are not satisfactory to the
government and new ones will have

The woodsmen sitting by the side
of log cabin fire places in the vicinity
of Reddington, says the Maine Woods,
tell stories of the tame bob cat that
is supposed to live in that part of the
country. Some person has named the
cat Bunny for he is as fond of rab-
bits as any other bob cat. Now AMI
then, the story goes, Bunny comes
out of retirement and meets his
friends, allowing them to rub his
whiskers and smooth the fur on his
back. On these occasions the big
bob cat purrs with sound that
makes one think of coffee grinder
in full action. There are people who
have met this cat who have tried to
tweak his stubby tail. But all who
have done so have regretted the ac-
ton, for Bunny does not allow such
liberties. How the cat became tame
enough to allow people to pet him is
not explained by the woodsmen who
tell the story.

MOSQUITO EXHIBIT

An excellent object lesson on the
necessity of keeping premises free
from stagnant water is furnished by
the bottles containing mosquito lar

These bottles are labeled showing
that the water, which is reel1ing with
,dgglers, was taken, respectively
from house gutter, a cesspool, tin
can, a hole in tree, catch basin
and water trough.

The stars big $4,000 prize contest
continues to develop surprise, and
from indications there will be sue
cession of them from now on until the
end of the great race, on January o.
One of the interesting features Isl
the rather remarkable results attained
by probably the youngest contestant,
Arthur Henry Winkley, who within
the past few days has jumped his
score up to over $4,000, which puts.
him seventh from the top of tho list.
Young Master Winkley is but 10 years
of age. the son of H. G. Winkley and
resident of that aggressive new com
munity, Kaimuki He is a pupil of
Punahou.
Arthur Winkley is hustler in more
ways than one At the last poultry
show he carried off one Of the first
prizes for magnificent Rhode Island
red cockerel, which he had raised him
self. He is an enthusiastic fancier,
and. moreover, doesn't depend upon
his parents or hired yard boys to at
tend to his live stock. He does 1t
I himself, and the results prove with
what success. He is going at the con
test business in the same spirit, and
states that he isn't near through yet
He confidently expects to get one of
the big Ten" prizes, and he is GER
tainly making frst-class progress in
that direction.

ROOSEVELT ATTACKS
GOV. WILSON AGAIN
At Same Time the Colonel
PIumeS Himself on His
Own Record
(By Associated Prsss.)


CHICAGO, Oct. 12.-Colonel Roose-
Welt in an address at the coliseum to-
night attacked Woodrow Wilson's rec
ord in the New Jersey governors chair,
on the trust question, and declared
that if the Democrats were successful
in November the great trusts OF the
country would find Governor Wilson
"a most delightful and harmless com
panion."
Colonel Roosevelt further insisted
that New Jersey was above any other
commonwealth, the trust state" of the
country and while it had laws which
could be used with great effect against
the trusts, Governor Wilson had pur-
sued a ''do-nothing' policy in this re-
gard.
Let Mr.. Wilson ponder the parable
of the talents" said Colonel Roosevelt,
land apply it to our several records in
office on the trust question.
"As president, had ten talents en-
trusted to me and / used them all.
"As governor of New Jersey Mr.. Will
son at least had one talent entrusted to
him. He has buried it in a napkin ana
Roosevelt sl1etched his own record on
the trusts while president, during
which he said:
II made so much impression by my
repeated messages and addresses that

lines / had ndicated-although the
promise was broken by those in charge
of the Republican party as soon as 1

BRIGHT PROSPECTS FOR
ATLANTA POULTRY SHOW
Inquiries Already Coming in
From All Parts of the Coun-
ty-5,000 Birds

Prospects for Atlanta's 1912 poultry
show under the auspices of the South
ern international Poultry association
TO be held at the auditorium armory
Dec. 16 to 21 inclusive are exceedingly
bright.
Thomas NJ. Poole, secretary of the
association. has been kept busy for
weeks answering inquiries from ali
over the country. Fanciers not only in
this immediate vicinity or the south
but from the far north, and west to
the Pacific coast, are writing here for
particulars with a view to sending ex-
hibits. IL is almost certain that gum
bers Of applicants will be turned down
toward the last on account of lack OF
adequate floor space despite the size
Of the auditorium armory There is
only room for 5000 birds, and it is a
foregone conclusion that every inch or
available space will be taken up.
Not only in quantity, but in quality
will the coming display eclipse any
thing OF the kind ever shown in the
south. Every variety of bird known
will have it's place somewhere in the
long lanes OF wired cages.
1t is only reasonable to suppose that
the success of the show last December
presages the coming one as a red letter
event in the annals of the world or
poultry.
The premium list, owing to the re-
cent illness Of Mr.. Poole, has been de-
layed somewhat, but is now in the
printers hands and will be ready for
the public on the eighteenth of this
at the same time, and both will be sent
TO persons on application.
In speaking of the coming display
month. Entry blanks will be completed
Secretary Poole said:
THE marvellous success Of the South
ern international Poultry show in De-
cember, 1911, where over 1000 birds
Of the very highest quality were exhio-
tied to approximately 10000 visitors,
was the subject Of national comment
in the poultry world, and has directed
attention to the great possibilities Of
the south in this billion dollar industry
viii. Atlanta as the hub of activity.
TN bringing the exhibition to sue
cessful conclusion, the aim and inter-
est of the association, broad in scope,
liberal I'm view and for the benefit or
the industry, was followed to the let
ter, with the result that the greatest
poultry show in the history of the
south was held"

The best combination pasture for dairy
cows for fall and winter grazing with
which we are acquainted is composed
either of rye or oats and an admixture
of crimson clover and hairy vetch. In
your section of the state you may use
the Oregon vetch to some advantage, but
in the northern part of the state It Is
frequently killed out by hard freezing.
The Oregon vetch has the advantage of
being an autumn and early winter grow
er, and therefore in combination for pas
turage in your section of the state we
would suggest the use of some of 1t.
Suppose you mix together four or five
peclSs of rye, six to eight pounds of Grim
son clover, ten to fifteen pounds of hairy
vetch. Seed in open burrows or drill in
vetch. Seed i open burrows or drill in
with an ordinary grain drill. We believe
you are likely to secure the best results
from the open furrow method. Fertilize
with 500 pounds of an SPA or 1925, de-
pending on the per cent OF sand in your
soil. Get the crop into the ground as
soon as possible. For grazing purposes
this crop should be seeded as early in
the fall as practicable so as to allow the
largest proportionate development before
cold weather.

SIBERIAN ALFALFA
