Year after year since the issue of
Skowhegans first newspaper. editorial
and news items, hereabouts, have dealt
with the subject of clearly streets, river
banks, etc. We presume that newspaper
men of the succeeding generation will in
herit this same subject in undiminished
Importance. a good deal was said and
done in Skowhegan's 1913 cleanup cam
paign which lasted all last summer We
really think a little gain was made over
the conditions of previous years. Any
one who will note the collection of coal
ashes, potatoes, straw, old clothing, etc,
now appearing upon our river banks
near the north channel bridge will be
skeptical. however. as to any very
marked Improvement during the past u
months. Augusta and other Maine towns
and cities are now getting ready for their
spring cleaning and vigorous thought on
the same question by Skowhegan people
is evidently very much needed.-Inde-
pendent Reporter.
And Skowhegan should remember
that down here we are grinding with
the water that is past Skowhegan.

hardly beat the true one that comes
from Miami, Fla. to the effect that
an. aviator, c. G. Wilmer, carried De-
tectiue Harry schade and an assist
ant in his curtiss flying boat out to
the steamship Miami, bound from
Miami to Nassau, and then delayed
off Cape Florida by low water, put the
detective aboard. where he arrested a
hotel colored employee, who had stolen
a guests breach, recovered it and
safely landed the party back at the
hotel. The whole affair took a little
less than an hour.

BUILDING

Washington, Jan. IA supplemental
report on the bill to appropriate SIS, 900,
600 year for Federal aid to road con-
struction in the various States was filed
in the House today by Representative
Shackleford, chairman of the House
Roads Committee. A speca rule max
'ng this bill in order as an amendment
to the opst office appropriation bill, now
before the House, probably will be acted
upon tom orrow by the Rules Commit
tee.
The bill proposes to divide the appro-
priation among the States in proportion
to the rural delivery routes and post
roads in each State. Tables setting forth
the mileage of these roads in each State
were included in the report filed to-day
Another table gave the amount of Fed
eral aid which States might receive un-
der the provisions pof the bill. The
amounts for the Southern States were
fixed as follows:
Alabama $s7S,75O, Florida $1S3,75O
Georgia s771,25o, Kentucky $5S3,75o
Louisiana $302,5OO, Mississippi $473,75O
North Carolina $66O,OOO, Sout hCarolin7

In the United States and the sur

These appalling facts should warn
us that after sickness, colds, over
work or any other drains upon
strength, SCOTS Emulsion should
be promptly and regularly used be-
cause tubercular germs thrive only
in a weakened system.
The teoted and proven value of

SCOTS Emulsion is used in tuber-

HOW LONG TO COOK PORK.

The following rule for cooking pork by
boiling is based on careful experiments
carried out by Danish investigator.
Cook the meat Is minutes (summer)
to Is minutes (winter) for each pound
of weight if put into boiling water,
keeping the water boiling throughout the
cooking process. If the meat is put into
cold water, deduct half the time required
to bring the water to a boil
Examples: How long should ten
pound ham be boiled if placed in boiling
water?
loxls equals $50 minutes, or three
hours.
How long should ten-pound ham be
boiled if placed in cold water and if
hour is required to bring the water to
q boil?
19xlS-30 equals $50 minutes, or ~
hours, after boiling begins.
The IS minute per pound allowance
should be followed in summer If the meat
is taken from a refrigerator and cooking
begun before il has had time to reach
the ordinary house Temperatures For
high attitudes, where the temperature o.
boiling water is considerably less than
at sea level, the time of cooking must
be heightened.

Yields to Vinol. Read Why.

Strong Vigorous men and women
hardly ever catch cold; it's only when
the system Is run down and vitality
low that colds and coughs get FOOT
hold.
Now isn't it reasonable that the
right way to cure a cough Is to build
up your run down condition again?
Mrs. D. A. MCGEE OF Waycross, Ga,
says: Il had a chronic cold and cough
which kept me awake nights for two
years and felt tired all the time.
Vinol cured my cough and ] feel
stronger in every way"
The reason Vinol Is SO ef1cacious
in such cases is because It contains
in q delicious concentrated form all
the medicinal curative elements Of
cod liver oil. with tonic. blood build
ing iron added.
Chronic coughs and colds yield to
Vinol because it builds up the weak
ened. rundown system.

son, Dairy and Truck Demonstrator, re-
turned Saturday evening from For.
Worth, Texas, where they went to at
tend a meeting of the Commissioners
of Agriculture calledby the Commission
er of Texas.
Commissioner Bruner said: eve had
very successful meeting, and organ
lied what I consider the most import
ant organizati ION in the South. We
have long felt the want of much an
organization. It is useless for US to
preach diversication to the farmers, un-
less we can help him find market fox
his produce"
"Our object among other things, is to
help him find a market and to get all
that his produce is worth, we want to
keep him poeted on market conditions,
see that he does not ship to an over
supplied market, but to a market that
needs his produce and to see that he gets
the highest market price, and the very
best rates on the railroads. No doubt
in my mind that the farmers will de-
rive much good from this organization"
"The meeting was we'll attended by
farmers and shippers from all over the
South. Many topics were discussed, and
much light turned on. The organization
was perfected by electing E. R. Kone Of
Texas, President; E. O. Bruner Of Lou-
isians, Vice President; Fred w. Mall,,
Secretary and H. T. Brown of Arkan-
sas, Treasurer, and Louisiana was on my
invitation selected as the next meeting

permanent injunction in behalf of the
Centaur Company of New York, the man
ufactursrs of Fletcher's Castoria, sRaiast
the Stewart & Holmes Drug Company
Of this City.
The controversy arose from the sim
ulating of the labels of this well known
preparation, and from the evidencs
filed in the case it was shown that the
infringing label was first discovered on
sale in Honolulu, and was traced to its
origin here in Seattle. q
The defendant company is one of the
oldest and largest concerns of its kind
in the Northwest.
The decree carries with it an order that
the Stewart & Holmes Co. recall the
goods which are on the market under the
infringing label, and to pay all costs in
the suit and damages assessed at 500.

ruinous example. I leave to my parents
as great a sorrow as, in their weakness,
they could possibly bear; leave to nav
brothers and sisters as much shame and
dishonor as I could have brought them
I leave to my wife broken heart and
life full Of shame; I leave to my chill
dren poverty. ignorance, bad characte,
and the memory of their father lying in
a drunkard's grave, and having gone to
= drunkard's hell.-True Democrat.
