INCREASED COST OF
TELEPHONE WIRE AF-
FECTS FOREST SERVICE

Washington, June 13.-With bids for
recently advanced IS per cent. and
prices on other equipment consider
ably increased, material curtailment
of the program for telephone line con-
struction on the National Forests this
summer is said to be in prospect.
There are over 10000 miles of tele-
phone line on the National Forests
and approximately 5000 miles of new
line was planned for the coming sea-
son.
A certain amount of wire is re-
ouired for upkeep, since the lines are
peculiarly subject to breakage from
falling trees and similar causes. Every
spring the Forest rangers have to get
the lines in order ir preparation for
the fire season and although. to lessen
the effects Of accident, the wires are
mostly run on swinging insulators
suspended from the trees. there are 1
the aggregate a large number Of re-
pairs to be made
Notwithstanding the number of tele-
phone lines already built. large areas
are still without means Of communi-
cation and consequently lacking in
proper equipment for fire protection.
Not only are the telephones used by
tie Forest officers. but they are great
convenience to the public. Very Of
ten, it is said, they enable isolated set
Elements to have a means Of COM
munication which they could secure
in no other way.

FISHING NOTES FROM
THE KENNEBEC RIVER
Oath Times)

While rowing up the river one
night last week. Frank Edgecomb
was nearing Burnt Jacket when he
felt something in the river butt his
oar. A little later he heard some
thing strike the water astern with a
chug like 25-pound rock. Later in
the Chops he heard the same sound
and finally discovered that he was
being encircled by some large fish.
Then he recalled that years ago his
brother killed a small whale that
came up the kennebec and was con-
siderahly alarmed lest this prove an
other whale. He took his lantern
and waved it around the boat fear
rg that the creature might capsize
his craft. What manner of fish it was
remains mystery.
Thursday F. H. Oliver captured a
kennebec salmon weighing 10 pounds
which he sent still alive on the Vir-
ginia to Virgil P. Emory. The salmon
was the second out of the waters in
this vicinity to be received this week
by Mr.. Emory. the other coming from
Boothbay Tuesday weighing IA pounds.
Silver hake in a large school ar
rived the middle of last week and
many died when they struck the
fresh water off Bath. They may have
been driven in by dogfsh. Since
their arrival kernebec fishermen
have been on the lookout for sea shad
as these shad follow the silver hake.
Wednesday night while out on the
river opposite the Houghton ship
yard, Al Ridley was startled as he
was drifting with his boats lantern
lighted, fishing for shad or sturgeon,
to hear the report of a revolver and
the bullet struck the river within
six feet in front of the bow Imme-
diately there was another report and
he heard the bullet whiz over his
head. Al moved from that vicinity:
later he reported the firing to the
marshal. He also learned the name
of the shooter. boy who was firing
from boat moored along the Bath
shore. The boy claims that he was
firing blank cartridges, but Ridley
says that this was not so as he heard
the bullets.
