MAINE INSPECTORS
GOOD WORK. IN THE
SARDINE FACTORIES

An instance of the vigilance being
exerted in the interests of pure food
for the citizens of Maine by the Blu
rsau of Inspection. Maine Department
of Agriculture. is shown in reports
coming from the sardine factories in
the Eastport and Lubec sections.
Louis Garcelon, one of the bureaus
food inspectors, is working there in
cooperation with F. L. Wollard, in
spector in charge of the Eastern de-
partment, for the Bureau of Chemis-
try, United States Department of Az
riculture, and Mr.. Garcelon's report to
his chief shows that a deplorab BILE
state Of affairs had existed in some
of the factories, which are rapidly
being put in proper condition.
1t was reported that the sanitary
conditions, both as to the buildings
and the handling of the fish and as
to the condition of some of the opera
tives, were startlingly neglected, but
that prompt measures soon brought
about regard for the State orders
that has brought very beneficial re-
suits.
1t is also reported that certain fish,
the well Unknown food Of the herring,
were being made ready for canning
and shipment as the genuine Ameri-
can sardine. This was quickly stop
ped and the material and product
must meet the inspectors require
mentS, or some of the factories will
find a large shortage in their output.
A large amount of unsuitable fish
has been destroyed by order of the
inspectors.
Ii is commendahle on the part of
the bureaus force that such good work
is being done. from which nothing
but the best Of results can, follow in
the way Of pure food, question which
touches every home and every per-
son in the country.

highway, until the rear wheels drop
ped into the ditch and against the
bank on the east side of the street.
The bank is SO formed that the right
wheel was lifted higher than the left
wheel and probably at about the same
time the left wheel dropped out OF
place, for it was later found that the
axle had been broken about three
inches from the hub. The car turned
completely over, pinning all four &C.
cupants beneath it.
Mr.. Morris quickly freed himself
and with the aid of passers-by sue
ceeded in lifting the car enough to
allow the three women to be drawn
from under it. Physicians were i'm
mediately called and 1t was found
that Miss Heath, who was uncon-
scious, had received serious injuries.
About an hour after the accident her
condition took a decided turn for the
worse and she was taken to the Au-
gusta General hospital SO that an OPP
Grafton might be quickly performed If
it was found necessary. 1t was be-
lieved Friday night that there was
pressure on the brain and develop
ments might necessitate an operation
to relieve it. Miss Heath is a young
woman of about 20 years.

The most amazing sight in our ex-
perience was the United States ser

per second. Here we saw the bullet

was low over the eastern hills. Its
rays came through a break in the
ridge bordering the range, lighting up

the target 200 yards away. but leav-
ing the target and the firing point in
deep shadow. The first bullet was
seen by someone and not a man pres

The appearance was a very brilliant
silvery flash, as vivid and quick as a
flash Of lightning.
But two things are necessary to see
bullets fly. dark background and the
sun at right angles to its course. Big
