railroad in the past has suspended op-
Grafton on portion of its line, includ-
ing Kittery Point, during the winter
months, but such consent has now
been withdrawn. and a mixed train
makes a round trip daily between YORK
Beach and Portsmouth.
1t is the judgment OF the Railroad
Commissioners that the people of Kit
terry Point should be Stven an opportu-
nifty to participate to a greater extent
in the benefits of such train service.
The fact that the station can be main
tanned during the winter only at loss
to the railroad, does not of itself alb
solve the corporation from its duty to
furnish the public reasonable station
accommodations 1t is a fact to be
considered, however, and we have CIV
en- it and ali other evidence in the
case, careful consideration, and hereby
find and determine that public con-
venienoe and necessity require the
maintenance of said railroad station
at Kittery Point as now located, and
we
ORDER AND DIRECT the York
Harbor and Beach Railroad Company
forthwith to keep said station open
for the accommodation and comfort OF
passengers and for the reception and
delivery of freight, for reasonable
time before and after the arrival and
departure of all trains, and to furnish
Immediately some suitable person to
maintain said station in accordance

made subject to all the duties, obli-
cations and restrictions conferred and
imposed by the laws of the State"
The general laws of the State re-
quire that railroads, when once estab-
lished shall be maintained and
operated, and in furtherance of the
purposes of their creation, they are
charged with the duty of erecting and
maintaining along their lines, such
stations for passengers and freight as
may be demanded by public conven-
ienee and necessity. A railroad cor
poration cannot absolve itself from the
performance of its corporate duty
without the consent of the Legislature;
and so this corporation when it desired
to suspend the operation of its road
during portion of each year, sought
legislative approval. 1t is equally
bound TO maintain such stations on its
lines as will furnish reasonable con-
venience and satisfy public necessity.
The location and maintenance of sta
tions involve as well the interests and
welfare of the public as those of the
corporation and it's stockholders.
The railroad corporation is by law
first instance, it may determine the
location and maintenance of stations
along it's lines; but the exercise of
such powers is always subject to reg
ulation, within reasonable limits, by
the Legislature.
It may be that directors of such cor
porations have not recognized, at all
times, their legal obligations and been
responsive to the just demands of pub
lie necessities. In 1871, the Legisla-
ture by an act entitled AN Act giving
additional powers to the railroad COM
missioners," vested this Commission
upon due notice and after hearing,
with authority to order the erection
and maintenance of stations FOR pas
sengers and freight when required by
public convenience and necessity, and
to enforce such order by proceedings
in the Supreme Judicial Court. This
act In the revisions has become sec
tions 81, 62 and SO Of chapter 81 OF
the Revised Statutes, and has been de-
clared constitutional by the courts.
It appears by the evidence in this
case that the chief business of Kittery
Point Is the entertainment OF summer
visitors and tourists and during the
summer months the village is one of
the important and notable re-
sorts on the coast of Maine. During
the winter, there is not a large general
business, but it is q populous COM
munity and there is a considerable
freight and passenger traffic.

FOREIGN CATTLE TRADE.
The only shipment of livestock for
foreign ports from the Atlantic coast
was lie sheep and 10 hogs to Bermu-
da, there being no expectation for
European markets.
The foreign cattle trade now Is al
most wholly confined to the large i'm
portations of Argentina chilled meat
received here. 1t is now retailing at
about 1k cent per pound below meat
of the same cuts bought at the local
market, but Is sold to the consumer
at no reduction. This Is due to the
fact that while the quality is fairly
good, there is q great deal of waste,
so that while it helps out the scarcity
of beef it has not affected the high
cost of meats for household supplies
In all probability IL these shipments
of imported Argentina beef are sue
ccssful, that an easier way will be
arranged of shipping to the Atlantic
ports, as now all supplies come via
Liverpool. which necessitates q re-
packing at Liverpool, which naturally
causes some loss.

Hinckley, Me, Feb. 24.-(SpeciaD.-
For several days C. ". Hinckley, su
pervisor of Good Will Homes, has had
a specially arranged thermometer in
the Good Will office, to record any
contributions of $1,000 or more to the
fund which he would like to have con-
tributed for Good Will. If he can
raise s250,000 for development or en-
dowment, he will have earned an ad-
ditional $25, 900, which viii make s275.-
600 in all. This morning the thermom
eter stood at $4,000; but he reports
today a pledge of $4,000, which sends
the mercury up to $4,000, or just one
third of the entire amount. This $20.-
600 is to be added to the endowment
and will be divided into scholarships
for girls.

HORSE MARKEET.

Boston, Feb. ~
= The horse trade last week was badly
cut into by the extremely hard weath.
er, both low temperature and storms
tending to keep buyers away from the
sales. There was an unusually heavy
supply Of green horses received last
week. but entries OF seconds wsrv uu-
der usual amounts. being scarce, WITH,
most Of the good horses Of this class
placed for this season. The trade was
mostly local and the hard teaming
made an urgent demand for all classes
of commercial horses, to help clear
the streets, and for additional teamtng.
Sales averaged lower In value this
week, due to tho extra large numbers
of horses received, and as dealers had
also a great many horses on the way
for this weeks sales, they were oblig-
ed to make some sacrifice in values to
clean up the horses on hand. estern
horses at the present time are more
readily bought than few months ago.
and dealers claim that weight and
quality are showing much improve
ment, which will undoubtedly have
good effect in the spring sales.
The best heavy drafters sold at 1926
GS450; medium weight, first class
drafters, at $225qs35o; heavy wagon
and express horses at s175@$225: light
weight, general delivery and purpose
horses at s140Gs225.
AT the City sale stables-J. c. Keith
at the Brighton sale stables sold S
express carloads of green country
horses and 30 seconds. AS the wealth
er kept buyers away, and as the sup
ply was large, prices were somewhat
off for the week in order to sell off
the present supply to make room for
the six express carloads to be receiv-
ed for this weeks trade. The horses
were all sold and considering all con-
ditions, the demand was active.
William Hurwitz sold express car
loads of green country horses last

stewardship through the annual report
of City Treasurer s. \. Adams. The
total expenditures Of the municipal de-

by $13, 166 the amounts appropriated
and received. The departments with
the largest expenditures were: Schools,

Weather conditions were as unfay-
orabie to some of the small fruits as
they were to the apple" states Albert
K. Gardner of Rockland, the state hor-
tieulturalist, in his annual report which
was recently filed with the Governor
and Council.
Continuing Mr.. Gardner says:
Strawberries in particular suffered
from the extreme droughts with the
result that the latter part of the crop
was almost failure. Many of the
berries dried on the vines. and, in some
cases, the vines themselves withered
and finally died. The early berries sold
at the top price as usual. and some
of the growers in the southern part OF
the state obtained as high as 20 to %
cents per quart basket in the Portland
market. The Glen Mary withstood
conditions better than most other va
rieties and demonstrated again their
worth as a suitable variety for this
state. Some of the growers have sy-
TENS of irrigation, mostly of the over
head type, which are not only salts
factory, but are becoming almost nee
essary in the production of this crop.
There was very little rust and prac-
tically no serious infestatien from in
sects. Most Of the growers are spray
ing thoroughly and giving good eul-
tHre. It is found that picking the
blossom buds the first season adds ma
terially to the development of strong.
vigorous vines, owing to the conscrva-
tion of the growth otherwise put forth
to produce pollen. Raspberries. black
berries, currents and gooseherries were
better adapted to withstand the ad-
verse conditions and in general did
very well. No new varieties of i'm
pertance were noted. though the st
Regis and other evertearing sorts We're
favorahly spoken of. Some of the old
er beds of raspberries have become in
footed with crown gall to such an ev-
tent that they will have to be removed
and new patches planted elsewhere.

Apple Shipments.


after several years trial to estimate
the apple crop through data collected
from growers in various sections of the
State, we decided that such figures as we
were able to get together We're of little
real value In that they were not an ac-
tual index of the amount of fruit pro-
duced or shipped.
In order to find the exact amount OF
fruit shipped during the past season
cards were sent to the agents at the dif-
ferent railroad stations and to the prepre-
sentatives of the different steamship lines
asking that they furnish the department
with the monthly shipments at those
points. Replies were received from mos
of these agents, and the general offices
were kind enough to furnish the total
amounts shipped over their lines.
