Obituary

Died in Moose River, Maine, June
9th, 1913, Mrs. Deloria McDaniels
Pierce, who was until few months.
before her death a resident of this
place. She was the wife of Davis
Pierce who with one son Leman and
two daughters, Eva and Doris, be-
sides an aged father, James McDan--
iels, one sister Lizzie and two broth
ers, Albert and Chester McDaniels,
are left to mourn her death. Her
birthplace was in Dennistown, Maine.
For the past year she has suffered
with that dreaded disease called
cancer and although at times great
sufferer she was one who never bur-
dened others with her troubles or
pains. Mrs. Pierce was a woman of
rare qualities; always cheerful and
happy thus winning the affection of a
large circle of friends. She will be
greatly missed in the home of her
children, where she often visited; and
while thankful for the brightness
and loving care she brought into
their lives they will deeply and rev.
erently miss her.
The funeral services were held
from her late home June 20, Rev. Mr..
Beaumont, pastor of the Congrega-
tional church, spoke words of com
fort to the family and those present.
The floral offerings were many and
beautiful; among them was pillow
and bunch of pinks from the family
broken circle of pansies from Mrs.
T. w. BARLEY, bunch of pansies
from Mrs. Peter Herbs from The
Forks; harp from the Ladies' Auy-
iliary of which the deceased was
member. other cut flowers and pottod
plants too numerous too mention.
Among those from out of town who
attended the funeral were Charles
Pierce and son Abel from Bingham ;
Mr.. and Mrs. George Merrill, Mr.. and
Mrs. lothian Bean, Mr.. and Mrs. Mont
Bean and Mr.. and Mrs. Scott Dur
gin from The Forks. Tie interment
was in the Whipple cemetery.
A good woman has departed
A noble self sacrificing life gona into
her eternal reward.
Still let her mild rebuking stand be-
between US and the wrong.
I And her dear memory serve to make
our faith in goodness strong.
And grant that she who trembling
here
Distrusted of all her powers
May welcome to her holier home
The well beloved of ours.

IN GRAVE DANGER
Strenuous Measures Are to be Adopted

The Boston Post has the following
interview on the potato crop OF the
nation and in Maine, particularly:
Strenuous measures are to be adopt
ed by government scientists to pre-
serve the country's potato crop, which
plant Psychologists declare, is in grave
danger of destruction.
Experts from almost every part OF
the globe have been called together
to investigate the diseases. that are
now affecting potatoes throughout
America, and they will begin their
work within the next few weeks IN
Van Buren,, Maine.
After Aroostook county has been
covered thoroughly the scientists will
examine the other recognized potato
fields of the United States. Their itin-
erary will include western New York
Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin
and the potato fields of Utah, Colorado
and the Pacific coast.
A special train of eight cars will be
provided the scientists for their work.
/ One car will be fitted up as a labora-
tory, with the most precise instru-
ments obtainable. 1t is expected that
the investigation will be completed by
October l.
E. II. Grub, one of the most fam
GUS of American potato specialists, de-
clares that unknown plant diseases
have attacked the crop in almost ev-
cry section of the country. So seri-
GUS is the condition that Utah, until
recently the greatest potato raising
state in the Union, last year, had to
import so per cent of the potatoes
needed for home consumption.
Among those taking part in the sur
vey will be Government Counsellor
DR.. o. Appel of the Imperial Institute
for Agriculture and Forestry, Berlin.
DR.. Appel is the recognized leader in
Eorope of this work. DR.. H. W. VOL
lenwober, who is the best authority In
the world .on fusarium disease OF
plants, is another German savant who
will join the party.
Professor L. c. Corbett or Professor
William Stuart, it is hoped, will par
ticipate. Both are representatives OF
the cultural and economic side OF the
potato industry. Professor L. r. Jones,
professor of plant pathology, UNIVERSE
ty of Wisconsin, hopes to accompany
the party from Wisconsin westward.
The American Bureau of Plant In
dustry will be represented by E. H.
Grub.
Every state university of those
states which grow large crops of po-
tatoes is expected to send one or two
Of its experts along, especially while
the party Is within it's own boundaries.
After the return a report will be
made to the United States government
and to each state visited. This re-
port will contain the result Of the sur
vey made by the scientists and will
exhaustiyely treat of potato troubles
throughout the country as well as
those local to each state.

School and Mill Fund Apportioned

Joseph w. Simpson of York, the
state treasurer has completed the ap-
portionment of the school and mill
fund for the year 1918, the amount
available for that purpose this year
being $7S6,777S2. The apportion-

Progressives Very Much in Earnest

Our offer to give publicity in these
columns to opinions on political and
other topics, seems to be appreciat-
ed so far only, by the. Progressive
party We publish below, second
communication from Mr.. Goodrich, an
ardent Progressive.
Bingham, Maine, July %, 1913
The Editors, The MISREPRESENTATION
err:
This letter is respectfully presented
to you for publication in your open
column in answer to the question:
Who is Edward NJ. Lawrence, the
leader of the Progressives in the
third Congressional district and can
he be elected?
Col. Edward M. Lawrence is a sue
cessful business man who lives on his
farm in Washington County. He has
been teacher, common laborer and
carpenter. Hens a member of the
firm of Lawrence Bros, general
merchants. He is connected with
several important business enter
prises, among which is the sardine in
dustry. The company OF which he
Is president has four factories, two in
! Lubec, one in Stonington, and one in
Rockland. He designed his own fac
tories and superintendent their con-
struction. He has invented several
machines and his fish taking machine
was the means of eliminating all
child labor from his business. He
| has served two terms in the Maine
legislature.
In brief, he is man who under
stands the needs of all the people
because he has worked as one of the
people in many different occupations.
Like other Progressives he has Joined
the new party because he understands
human needs, and has found from ex-
perience that the Progressive Party
is the one party that is actually work
ing to make living conditions better
to give the poor man the same JUS
tice as the rich man, to revise the
tariff schedule by schedule so that
business will not be held up by uncer-
tainty. and workmen thrown out OF
employment. While he is not law
yer, his Legislative experience and
his human sympathy prove that ne

elected as we'll as before.
In the last election the Republican
Party cast only one vote out OF five
in this district. The fight Is between
the Progressives and the Democrats
These two parties were practically
of the same strength at the last cleo
ton. The Progressives need to gain
only a few hundred votes in order to
win. Whoever the Democrats noml-
nate, it is not probable that he will
be able to carry his full party vote
II it is Gould, he will not receive the
support of all the respectable cltl-
zens whom he has called IAN element
of nay party of which l am not proud.
If it is Pattangall, 1t is not probable
that he will be supported by all the
friends of honest Sam Gould.
1t looks as though the Progresses
stood a good chance to win and elect
Lawrence, the Progressive candidate
Very truly yours,
MERTON T. GOODRICH
