Power a National Need.

The public needs both steam power
and water power It is to the interest
OF the whole country that our water
power should be developed as rapidly
and as efficiently as possible. This de
Nclopment can be carried on only in
one OF two ways-either by govern
lnent ownership and operation or by
the employment of capital worked un-
der the incentive of private property.
Nobody but visionary proposes, today
that the government should build and
operate water power plants. Some sys-
tenn must, therefore, be devised for
the DEVELOPMENT of water powers as
Il natural resource by private genius
and private capital.-Outlook.

These are some uf the cumbersome
and costly makeshifts to which farm
ers have been obliged to resort for
plant food only three other sources
of nitrogen supply are known. At pres
ent and for many years past the world )
greatest supply has been saltpeter or
nitrate of soda from the deserts OF
Chile where in the course of past ages
nature has iIhpregnated great beds OF
soda with atmospheric nitrogen. Until
few years ago the whole civilized
world depended upon these Chilean
nitrate deposits for Its supply Of salt
peter nitric acid aud ammonia. Today
the United States relies mainly upon
this source, and American manufactur
ers and farmers pay tribute to the
Chilean government, which collects an
export duty Of 60 per cent ON the prod
net, to the tune OF upward of $4,000.
600 year Even at this cost the Chill
can supply Is giving out, and we must
face the prospect OF still higher prices.
The total export Of Saltpeter In 1860
was 10000 tons. In 1915 II was nearly
2,OO0OOO tons. Robert Kennedy Dun
can late professor Of chemistry In the
University of Kansas, says the best de

to do for ammonia and nitric acid?
In the process Of Coking coal some

compared with our national needs, and
to burn coal primarily for the produc-

WINTHROP HIGH
GIRLS MAINTAIN
CHAMPIONSHIP

Winthrop. Me-, April 14.-0speciaD. -
Considerable controversy has arisen be-
tween the Girls basketball teams rep
resenting Winthrop and Skowhegan High
schools, both teams claiming champion
ship of the State The Winthrop girls
have twice challenged their rivals to a
game to decide the ISSUE but without
success. The Skowhegan girls claim
that their season is over and their team
isbanded, and that on two different oc-
casions during the season they asked for
dates with the Winthrop team. This is
quite true, but the dates asked for by
Skowhegan had been previously filled
so that the Winthrop girls could not
play at that time. AS both teams have
finished the season with clean slate.
it seems but fair that the Skowhegan
girls should be willing to maintain their
claim by playing a post-season game.
As they refuse to do this, Winthrop as
the challengers, maintain their claim to
championship honors.

PARENT-TEACHER
ASSOCIA ION
HOLDS MEETING

The April meeting of the Gardiner
Parent-Teacher Association was held
Friday evening at the High school
building. Although the evening was
not conducive to a large attendance
there was fair number present.
Judge Harold E. Cook gave one of the
addresses and was listened to with
much interest. He spoke briefly upon
what we should do for the schools and
what we expect them to do for us. and
characterized the schools as the great
est institution ever known, except the
church of God. He outlined the duty
OF the parents to the shool, to the
teachers, to the educational system
and to our children. On the other hand
we have the right to expect that our
children when they finish school they
will have an education that will fit
them for their work in life.
Raymond Monaghan and Miss Cath
crime Hickey furnished pleasing music
on the violin and piano. Following the
address Of Judge Cook a social hour
was passed during which light re-
freshments were served by some of
the young ladies.
