Wise men in the Census Bureau
have been compiling figures about cleo
trio railways in Maine. They find there
has been a steady and large growth
in the construction of electric roads
but a larger gain in the number of
passengers carried. In other words
passenger traffic increased more rap
idly than did the mileage of new cleo
trio roads. There were in operation
sos electric cars in Maine in 1902 but
in 1912 these cars had increased TO
794. The salaried employees on the
electric lines in Maine for 1902 were
65 and had increased by 1912 to 175.
Employees on wages on electric lines
in Maine in 1902 were 969 while the
ayera ge number in 1912 had increased
to 1886.
The total horsepower of electricity
used in propelling these cars in 1902
was 1906 but it had increased in
1912 to 10000. Passengers carried in
1902 were 27 500, $50 and in 112, SO,
Csc, showing that in 10 years passen-
ger travel by electric lines in Maine
had doubled In other aspects the cleo
trie line activities had doubled ap-
proximately as shown by the fact that
electric car mileage for 1902 was g.
S15,671, where in 1912 it was 11,124,224,
covering alike passenger, freight and
express service The Census Bulletin
proceeds as follows:
"The statistics relate to the years
ending Dec. 81. for 1912 and 1907, and
June 80 for 1902. The totals include
electric light plants operated in con-
nection with electric railways and not
separahle therefrom, but do not in
clude reports of mixed steam and cleo
tric railways nor railways under con-
struction during the census year which
had not begun operations.
The figures as presented for Maine
show that during the decade 1902-1912
there were substantial gains in the
industry The gross income of the 16
operating companies reported In 1912
show an aggregate gain of s2,022, 055,
or 1887 per cent. over 1902 A notice
able feature of operations of the de-
cade 1902 to 1912 is the net income in
crease of 272.4 per cent, due, possibly,
to consultations, there being a de-
crease in the number of companies of

A few days ago Senator Burleigh re-
ceived kilograms from different parts
of Aroostook county informing him
that, although a quarantine of Canadi-
an potatoes had begun on Dec. "a, they
were still coming in, in large quantities,
as the customs officials had received no
official notice Of the quarantine. At the
senator's request telegram was sent
from the treasury department to the
collector of customs at Portland re-
questing him to take notice of the fact
and to at once give instructions to
other customs officials to observe the
quarantine.

Provisions for Admission Of
Disease Shipments.
Must Be Certified by Government
OtCOuniTy ofOrigin TO Be Sound.
Regulations Issued by Sec. Houston
OF Department Of Agriculture.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 1.-(SpeciaD.-
To permit the admission of disease-free
potatoes from foreign countries and dis
tricts which are not infected by the pow
derry scab, wart and other serious dis
eases, the Secretary of Agriculture has
issued series of regulations defining the
conditions under which potatoes win be
permitted to enter this country in ac-
cordance with the order issued Decem-
Der %, 1913 This order extended to po-
tatoes the nursery stock regulations of
the plant quarantine act and provided
that no potatoes could be imported until
| the importers had secured permits from
the Federal horticultural board, similar
to those now issued to importers of
nursery stock.
Potatoes to be admitted must De ceru-
fed by the government of the country OF
origin to be free from dangerous dis
eases and insect pests covered by the
quarantine. and must have been grown
In district free from the wart disease
and the powdery scab. The new regula-
tions define the exact conditions under
which such disease-free potatoes will be
admitted
The regulations, In general. besides
prescribing the exact forms of notifying
the Government of shipments, provide
for the admission under the inspection
system, of potatoes from all countries
not under quarantine Such countries
must, however, maintain effective quar-
antines of their own against infected
countries; i. e., countries remaining un-
der quarantine by the United States.
The regulations also provide for the
lifting of the quarantine as to any coun-
tries covered by the quarantine upon the
presentation of satisfactory evidence to
the Secretary of Agriculture that such
country, or well-defned district thereof,
is free from injurious potato diseases and
insect pests, and, after the quarantine
has been thus lifted, potatoes will be ad-
mitted from such country or district in
accordance with the regulations govern
ing entry of potatoes from countries not
now under quarantine. The countries
now thus quarantned are Newfoundland;
the islands of st. Pierre and Miquelon;
Great Britain, including England, Scot
land and Wales; Ireland Continental
Europe, and the Dominion of Canada. 1t
is expected that from some of these, at
least, it will be possible in the near fu-
ture to lift the quarantine and permit
the entry of potatoes therefrom under
the conditions prescribed in the regula-
tions.

Potatoes will be admitted into the

THE entry of potatoes will not be per-

Provided. that when trans-shipment is
necessary at a port of country under

nal port of departure to the port OF en-
try in the United States.

The deartment of agriculture warns
potato growers against the use of any
second hand British or European po-
tato sacks, unless these sacks have
heen thoroughly steriliZed since they
contained or came in contact with for
eign potatoes. I'm some instances" say
department officials, entire shipments
from the great potato districts of
Maine to New York City have been
made in foreign secondhand sacks.
Even though none of the imported po-
tatoes themselves were used for seed
purposes, which is not the case. these
diseases which are carried in sacks
that have contained diseased potatoes,
would none the less surely but more
insidiously, be introduced and spread
through the secondhand sacks"
Experts. of the department have OBJ
tanned evidence that germs of blight
disease, silver scurf, dry and soft rots,
powdery scab and common scab pre-
vail among potatoes being imported
from Europe. The trade in second-han
sacks, in which these potatoes are i'm
ported. has assumed considerable pro-
portions and nowhere more than in the
Eastern states including Maine. Be
cause of insistenee among Maine po-
tato growers that their product be pro-
tected from European potato diseases
department officials feel that these
Maine men should cooperate zealously
in the sterilization of the secondhand
sacks.
1t is pointed out that the main farm
ers can insist upon sterilization. The
purchasers of seed potatoes. large
quantities Of which come from Maine,
are also being warned about the ne
cessity of insisting upon sterilization.
This can be effected by subjecting the
sacks to live steam in tight containers
for an hour, or by boiling them in any
kind of kettle for two or three hours.
The efforts of Maine senators and
representatives recently toward eX-
tending the quarantine on diseased po-
tatoes may be largely nullified, the de-

AMERICANS MAY GET
AUSTRALIAN WOOL

Washington, Nov. 20.--Grcat Brit
ain has decided to modify, in favor
Of American manufacturers the en-
barge on expectation of wool from
Australin and other British domin-
Ions. II had been hoped that after
the needs of the British army had
been satisfied Americans might be
permitted TO buy the Australian sur
plus. giving guarantees that neither
the wool nor goods made from il
would reach Austria or Germany
but. the state department was in
formed today that for the present,
at least, no exceptions would be
made.
In spite of the lacl, of advance as
surance, however, officials here and
Interested manufacturers still are
confident that there viii be modi
iication later. They think time will
demonstrate that the entire output OF
raw wool from the colonies Is not
needed By Great Britain.
