Governor Advocates
Largest Possible
Maine Farm Acreage

Governor Carl E. Milliken Saturday
sent communication to the master of
every Grange in the State laying stress
on the fact that everything should be
done to encourage larger farm acre
age. Accompanying the communication
is blank on which are questions ask
ing the master Of the Grange to an
swer relating to the loans to farmers.
Governor Milliken's communication
to the masters Of the Grange is as fol-
lows:
April %, 1917.
To the Master Of the Grange:
In this time of national emergency
when we are facing probable world
wide food shortage. we are all agreed,
1 assume, that everything practicable
should be done to encourage larger
crop acreage.
For the most part this problem must
be worked out by each community for
itself, but il is hoped that you will do
everything you can through the farm
ers of your acquaintance and the
Grange to encourage your own com
munity to take some definite steps at
once toward determining how much
extra acreage beyond the crop OF last
year can be planted by the farmers,
how much seed and fertilizer this Will
require in addition to what is already
in sight, how much extra financial as
sistance will be needed. After the needs
of the community, especially IN
financial way are determined. it is
hoped that efforts will be made 70 ar
range either in local banks or WIZ TO-
cal capitalists for the necessary IundS
so far as possible.
While we realize most Of this en-
co,1ragement, in order to be practicable
must be handled in the community II
self, we want to do everything possible
as a State government to encourage
added crop acreage. Several plans are
suggested and am asking you 10 help
me by presenting if possible 70 your

The Blank

(Please fill in this blank and return in
enclosed envelope)
The State of Maine is already arranging
wherever possible to import seed and fer
tilizer in large quantities at its own OK
pense, and is also urging local communl-
ties to arrange for extra crop acreage.
A suggestion has been made that the
State should also attempt to loan money
directly to farmers in consideration OF ad-
ditional crop acreage beyond last year.
II is proposed that the loan be limited
TO $500 and that a selection of those TO
receive the loan be made in some way
by local committee.
QUESTION NO. lin your Judgment Is
il wise for the state to undertake. direct
financial loans to farmers in this way?
QUESTION No. Pit is understood that
if loans are made the amount available
will only make 1t possible to accommo-
date about 1850 farmers, or one in 80 of
farmers throughout the State. In your
Judgment how should the selection be
made.
QUESTION No 3--If the state is to
loan money direct to the farmers. should
the rate of interest be the market rate
or a rate less than the prevailing market
rate?
QUESTION NO. 4-Will you kindly
make any other suggestion that occurs
to YOU in this connection. especially men
tioning any particular service that you
think the State government can render?

Capt. bennett is a native of York
and like SO many Maine boys went to
sea early in life. When the civil war
came on he enlisted in the navy as a
masters mate, being then IS years of
age. His services during the unpleas-
antness were on the sloops OF war
Seminole" and "Vincennes'' and a
dispatch boat of the Bouquet Fleet,
known as the "Cowslip." which he later
commanded He took part in the Bat
tie of Mobile Bay and the latter opera
tons which resulted in the capture OF
the city of Mobile.
He was promoted by Admiral Far
ragut which was later confirmed by
the Secretary of the Navy. He re-
manned in the navy some years after
the war on duty at several stations
and in the South Pacific Squadron. His
final discharge came in 1859 when he
shortly afterwards entered the United
States revenue cutter service as a
third lieutenant where he served
through the various grades reaching
his captaincy in 1896.
During the Spanish-American war
Capt. bennett was in the command OF
the revenue cutter Apache" assigned
to guard the mine field at the mouth of
the Mississippi river where the army
had planted about 800 torpedoes.
Capt. bennett was retired on &C
count of disabilities incurred in line of
duty in 1908. He had made his home
in York since that time. He is de-
lighted that he can once more serve his
State and country in some way, even
if old age and physical infirmities pre-
clude his taking an active part in ac-
tual military or naval service.

TO start a campaign looking to an in

z. Miiliken. Saturday. in discussing the
food situation. And in conference with
Hon. Harold NJ. Sewall Of Bath, the
chairman of committee Of public safe
ty. laid especial stress on this point.
practically one Of the first things
that the executive committee Of the
general committee on public safety did
was to designate a sub committee to
have exclusive charge of food produc-
ton and conservation" continued Gov
ernor Mlliken. Donald F. Snow Of
Bangor was made chairman of this
sub committee and the members of his
organization with the chairmen Of the
various county sub committees on food
supply held an all day session at the
State House at which this matter was
given an exhaustive study.
This State committee on food con-
servation has been delegated every
power that the committee on public
safety might have in this regard AS
a result of its efforts literature dealing
with farming and gardening has been
distributed in every section of the
State In addition to that, every effort
is being made to see that a sufficient
supply of commercial fertilizer is OBJ
tanned. while the question of labor is
one that Is engaging the attention Of
the committee.
Il feel confident that seed, fertilizer
and labor. the three essentials for
successful food supply, will be amply
provided for the State of Maine.
I'm common with federal officials
have made it a special point Of the
necessity Of planting homo gardens
! have urged that every possible va
cant spot that could be used for food
production be devoted for this pur-
pose. Letters coming to me have
showed convincingly how gratifying
has been the response to this appeal.
From many residents in the State

use of land, while people outside Of
