HIGHEST PRICE EVER PAID.
Potatoes Bring $6.25 Barrel in Houlton,
Me.

Bangor. Ne, Feb. l7.-Potatoes are
selling at Houlton at SO and S6.25 a
barrel, the highest price ever paid in
this state. With prices at those levels
it is expected that the stock remaining
in the country will be practically dis
posed of as fast as shipping facilities
can be obtained
Six dollar potatoes we're not dreamed
of last fall So being set as the possible
high mark but shortage in the market
coupled with the unusual demand have
brought about unusual market condi.
tons that have gradually sent the price
upward. Whether or not the price will
exceed the present quotations cannot be
predicted, but there will no doubt be
some growers who will continue to hold
their stock for possible further ad-
yances.
The Fort Fairfield potato markets
also took a sudden rise in prices yester-
day. The SO market so long predicted
is now an assured fact Many of the
farmers were hauling to market to take
advantage of the present high prices.
Buyers yesterday were reported as pur-
chasing freely at SO per barrel.

General Sporting Notes.

The Giants have released Leo Witter,
the young outfielder, who came to the
Giants with a record of smuggling ability
and good fielding, having been drafted
from Newark international league club
to the Columbus club of the American
association. Witter was offered a forty
five-day probationary contract by the
Giants some time ago, but refused to
sign because of his pledge to the frater-
nifty. Though there is a rule prohibiting
the release of player, who has not been
given trial, the New York club con-
tends that Witter refused to sign and
nothing else was left to do but release
him.
Christy Msthewson has invented some
thing which he thinks is absolutely new
in baseball. The innovation is known
as a "warmup' ball. which complies with
the specifications under which the regu-
lstion ball is made, except that it is
about two ounces heavier. Matty has
had one made especially for himself and
will have the Cincinnati pitchers prac-
tice with it during the coming spring
training trip to see what the result will
be. The idea is that the pitcher will
use the ball preparatory to taking his
turn in the box, while in the warming
up pen. and viii get used to the feel"
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1917-02-17

of it and that the regulation ball will
be a good deal lighter, when the twirler
enters the box, and with this effect, he
can get good deal more speed in his
delivery. The theory is the same as
practiced by the batters, who swing two
or three bats before entering the bat
ter's box to face pitcher. Some have
gathered the idea that the ball will be
enough heavier so that it will throw the
pitcher entirely off his stride, and he
will not be able to control the ball at
all.
Another westerner got his bumps in the
Bauermayer 500-yard special. Bings Dis
mond finished bad third behind Tom
Halpin and Bill Moore of Princeton. The
race was repetition of last years run
ming, Moore going away to a big lead
and holding it to the middle of the home
stretch. Then Tom Halpin came along
on the wings of the wind and try as
he could, the game tiger could not stave
off the strides of Long Tom of Boston.
Had the race been quarter mile affair,
Moore would have won by a margin OF
not less than three yards. The extra
80 yards was a bit too much for the
Princeton hier.

DIR. THOMAS PESSIMISTIC.
President of Middlebury Sees Hard Fu-
ture Ahead.

Franklin, Mass, Feb. l7.-American
education is superficial, developing su-
perficial men and American success has
been due to marvellous natural resources,
in the opinion of President John NJ.
Thomas of Middlebury collegere, ex-
pressed at the 5lst annual celebration
of Founders day at Dean academy yes
terday. 1--WE must enter the lists with
the strong expanding peoples of the
world, and we shall keep our territory
and our opportunity for free national
development only if we are strong
enough to do so.
THE Almighty grants no permanent
titles to his inheritance His gifts are all
in trust and when holders become weak
and unworthy He finds new trustees.
One could compile a catalogue, pages
long, of the extinct nations which prove
this truth.
''We enter the conflict, perhaps to-
pitifully unprepared. We have
won the fairest and richest home ever
attained by single people, but we lack
the thoroughness of the great Europe
an peoples. We are now face to face
with a new problem, in which success
will not be so easy. We have now to
fight the battles of men. 1t will be
glorious fight, but it will take all our
mettle and the issue is by no means cer-SI
tain"

Wasted Power.

Professor Charles Baskerville, head
of the department of chemistry in the
College of the City of New York, stated
in a recent interview regarding the
work of modern chemists:
'In any chemical problem there is
no telling where the chemist will STOP
Just now there are many chemists
working on the problem Of free gas.
An Unreasonable lot of power is vast
ed in the dumps of our coal mines. IL
this waste were reduced to gas by the
retort process enough ammonia might
be produced as byproduet to pay for
the whole cost of the operation, making
the gas free. The gas could then be used
to generate electric power. Really, one
big railroad ought to be running on
the power it is now throwing away in
these supposedly worthless dumps"
