The Austrian
Idea Of State

The Vienna "Reichsbote," the organ
OF the Court party. propounds in the
following terms the principles of Aus
trian kultur:
an ell that concerns the spirit OF
public circumstances, the justice and
righteousness Of the government of the
state, the sanity of the constitution
and its policy during the war, We in
Austria are incomparably superior to
our enemies. How grandly stands the
constitution of Austria Hungary beside
the constitutions OF states like France
and America, where the leaders of the
nation are condemned to be mere
mouthpece for plutocrats!
Austria declared war on Serbia be-
cause our splendid heir TO the throne
had been murdered. and because 1t was
necessary TO root out the nests of the
conspirators. How absolutely moral
was such a motive for war! How
grand is the Austrian idea OF state"

Vienna in
Desperate Straits

The "Corriere d'ltalia" learns from
an Austrian source, according to THE
Westminster Gazette" that Vienna is
in desperate straits for food supplies.
No food supplies OF any description
have reached the Austrian capital for
several weeks, and most OF the shops
are completely empty. Heavy snow
falls have paralyzed tho railways in
Hungary and rendered the transporta-
ton of supplies impossible.

Music of Yesterday
Cadski Makes Perhaps Her
Last Appearance at the
Metropolitan

Nine. Johanna Gadsk sang last
night probably for the last time at the
Metropolitan Opera House, appearing
as Isolde in Wagner's great opera.
Isolde was never one Of Nine. Gadski's
best parts, and her voice is no longer
in good enough condition to enable her
to sing the music effectively. She has
many friends in the German-American
colony, and these friends were out in
force TO applaud her last night.
Nine. Gsdski has been a member Of
the Metropolitan Opera Company for
more than twenty years. Her contract
with the Metropolitan Opera Company
ended last night Mr.. Urlus was the
Tristan. and Mr.. Bodansky conducted
last nights performance.

REPORT OF FIRE
WARDEN S. c. CUM
.MINCC

The annual report of S. c. Cum
mings of Haynesvile. one of the chief
FIRE wardens for the southern part of
-Aroostook county. which was filed with
Hon. Forrest II. Colby of Bingham,
the state forestry commissioner, Mon
day, is in part as follows:
The season opened quite dry but
later it changed to be very wet. Only
two small fires occurred, these being in
Township 4. Range ), in the southern
part of .AroostOok county, in Il pulp
operation. The fires were eXtinguished
very quickly at a small expense.
Il would suggest more lookout sta
tons and less patrolmen. OF course
there should be certain amount Of
patrolling done, which cannot be
avoided. Wevhould have some patrol
men especially around the pulp oper-
ations and on the by paths and high
ways when the men are travelling to
and from the camp.
During the past season ] have re-
raired some telephone lines, cleared
out some old roads, succeeding in get
ting some different lines located and
got the wire and material to build
seven miles of telephone line to con-
meet the fire camps and the West
Branch Dam on the Mattawamkeag,
and thence up TO connect with the Is
land Falls line to William Sewail's
Camp on the west branch lake of the
Mattawamkeag river.
Il have also traded for lookout
station and intended to do this work
with my patrolnen, but it came so wet
that took the patromen off from pa
trolling and closed the business up. |
wanted to cut down expenses so that
my expense sheet would show fairly
good.
"On the whole this has been a very
fine season, but l presume that all Of
US fire wardens have been quite watch
full and attended to our own business
as best we could. .
The telephone lines and the lookout
stations are all ready to be built in the
spring Of 1915"

A HIGHER STANDARD
FOR maine APPLES

The following article by S. III. Eaton,
the assistant horticulturist, has been
issued from the Maine department of
agriculture:
What is the reason that many
orchardists in the State of Maine 90
not awake to the splendid opportuni
ties we have in the State for the grow
ing Of strictly high grade apples, and
secure and hold the trade for this hign
grade fruit? Look in the fruit stores
in the cities. What do we see for ap-
pies? Are they grown in Maine, or
do they come from distant part or
the country?
A large amount OF fruit is used
every year in the eastern part of the
country by people who want first class
fruit They are among the best paid
people in the world and when they
can purchase fruit raised and packed
in the right way if the State Of Maine,
they are willing to pay good prices foE
it.
Let us consider what is the result
Of raising first class fruit packed
right and delivered in good condition
at the stores. ! called at a fruit store
in one of our Maine cities the last of
November 1917. and inquired of the
man if he had any Maine grown ap-
ples. and was informed that he did not
have any. but had fine lot of western
grown apples that he was selling at
five cents each or fifty cents dozen.
He also had some smaller sized apples
Of the same variety at forty cents
dozen.
Just think Of apples, raised thou
sands of miles away shipped across
the country and then sold right in the
heart Of the apple growing section of
the State of Maine at prices that we
have been unable to get for our Maine
grown fruit, Does any one claim that
the western apples are superior in
flavor to ours? Are there any apples
grown any where that are superior in
favor to our Mcintosh Red, Craven

ton quintet Will 80 to Lewiston. 1t is
expected that the addition Of the two
Maine cities will prove a big help to
the league, and will tend to stimulate
interest in the fast indoor sport. Wor-
cester, Lawrence. Lowell and Provi-
dcnce have all proved that they are
ready for the sport and directors of the
league have decided to stand pat on
these towns.

AUTO REGISTRA-
TON FOR 1918

The Maine Automobile Registration
BHroau in the Office of Secretary Of
State Frank w. Bali is all ready for
Tho business of 1918. the bureau hav-
nc received from the manufacturers
The first carload of plates and other
equipment. IT includes everything but
the full number Of pleasure machine
plates, and 1850 of those are now in
hand.
Tho Bureau will at once being send
ing out the plates to those who have
reserved their numbers, about 500
registration and 500 operators licenses
having already been filed. Another
little matter that should result in
benefit and convenience to both the
department and the public is the send
ing of a registration blank to every
resistrant of an automobile during the
season Of 1917. Should the matter Of
registration he promptly attended to,
IT will be great help to the bureau
whereas the custom Of waiting for the
last minute before the machine is
taken from winter quarters, means but
a tremendous rush and crush ut the
bureau and consequent delay for these
very parties i'll receiving their IL
censes. The moral is--register early.
=, One thing that Secretary of State
Ball will insist on this year is that to
secure registration, every applicant
must give the manufacturer serial
number. which is the only positive
way OF identifying n car. Almost all
Of the autos bear this serial number
somewhere on the car body, but the
Ford car, since number of factories
and plants have begun assembling the
PARTS, it has been found necessary to
place the serial number on the engine.
But. wherever it may be, it will be alb
Soutely necessary to give the serial
number in order to secure registration
IN Maine. Secretary of State Ball is
sending letter to all the 1917 regis
trants as follows:
