Weights and Measures

Commissioner of Agriculture John
A. Roberts has received notification
that weights and officials of
the United States will meet in annual
conference at the National Bureau of
Standards at Washington, for four
days, May 21-24 inclusive. Tentative
plans have been completed and in
vitations to send representatives
have been extended to the governors
of the several states and to the COM
missioners Of the District Of Column
bia.
Due to the demands incident to the
war upon weights and measures
officials, especially those of the Blu
reau of Standards, some of whom are
officers Of the association, no annual
conference has been held since 1916.
This has caused much important
business to accumulate, which, with
the discussion Of new conditions aris-
ing as a result Of the war, promises
to max, the conference this year one
of the busiest and most interesting
ever held.
The objects of these conferences are
TO bring an exchange of views be-
tween The men who are engaged in
the important task of inspecting
measuring and weighing apparatus
and to secur greater efficiency and
uniformity in the work. When it is
remembered that each state legis-
lates independently on the subject Of
weights and laws it will
readily be seen that there will be a
lack of uniformity. This condition did
exist very largely before the forma-
ton of the association and one of
the first things done was to endeavor
to correct it.
A model for a uniform state law as
well as one for a city and county law
and a uniform table for t~olerances on
weighing and measuring apparatus
was drafted. These have been. wisely
adopted throughout the country and
as a consequence much has been &C
compIished toward eliminating the
chaotic conditions relating to non

Farmers Object
To Cutting Corn
From 5 TO 4 cts.

Oakland. Me-. April 1.-THE sweet
corn raisers of this section met here
Tuesday morning in Grange hall to
protest against the action of the
Portland Packing Co. in cancelling
its contracts made with the farmers
last fall for sweet corn at the rate of
5 cents per pound. and to devise
some mean of.protecting their inter-
ests. Between IS and 40 were pres
ent and the meeting was presided
over by John Gleason of Oakland.
1t developed that the Packing
Company also held a meeting at the
same place about two weeks ago. at
duce the farmers to make a new rate
of 4 cents a pound for their corn this
year. The farmers who are under
! contract have since that time received
| letters from the Packing Co.. cancel
ling the contracts at 5 cents and Of
fering 4 cents.
1t is stated that all but one man
present signed an agreement to hold
the Packing Co. to it's contracts n
| not to plant any sweet corr for a
price less than 5 cents a pound. Let
| tiers we're read from other packing
houses, which without exception stat
ed they would stand by their last
falls contracts with the farmers, for
scent corn.
George Wheeler of Oakland pro-
duced figures showing that the aver
age cost of production of an acre OF
! sweet corn was s100.s0 not counting
the picking and delivering. To break
! even on this cost. a farmer must raise
| 1000 pounds or better to the acre n
it was shown that more raised less
than 1000 pounds than over that
amount.
The Packing Co.'S. argument Tor
| ~cancelling the contracts was that the
| market was flooded with sweet corn
and they could not sell the product at
! the advanced price: also that the
| government has a great supply which
| will be release in the market. The
raisers say the government has al
ready stated that it's reserve stocks
Of supplies will not be thrown into
| the market and that the other reasons
are equally at fault.
It was also stated hat n movement
is afoot to organize the Maine sweet
! corn raisers along the lines OF the
New England Milk Producers Asso-

Prevention Of Forest Fires

Forrest H. Colby Of Bingham.
State forestry commissioner. sent a
letter to all the boards of selectmen
enclosing a copy of the law in regard
to forest fires in the organized towns
and calling their attention to that
part of the law which pertains to he
negligence of selectmen for damages
if they do not attend to their duty n
the work of attending to forest fires.
1T has Leen suggested to me- says
Commissioner Colby. that in cases
where the selectmen do not have the
time to attend to this duty that they
appoint one or more men. to be
known as deputy forest fire wardens,
who have telephone communication
and own an automobile, and are in
terested in the forests and Woodlots,
to be their representatives in looking
after these matters and taking charge
of the work in cases of forest fires.
Please impress upon these men the
Importance of being very prompt 20
act when notified Of fire raging IN
their locality, and the Importance Of
being within telephone communica-
tlOn through inc uTS SedSpH, SIShhS
the local operator the number where
they can be called. Report to this
department :he names of deputies
appointed by you or in case You do
not appoint deputies please let us
know the name Of the selectman in
charge of forest fires.
Il would also call to your atten-
ton that according to reports of this
Office the fire loss in the Maine For
estry District, meaning outside the
organized towns. for h season of
1918 was $7,291.20 c, while in the organ
lied towns. meaning the towns not N
the Maine Forestry District. it was
$40, 600. 90. I believe if proper care and
attention is given this forest fire
problem by the selectmen of the
towns that there is nj reason why
the fire loss outside of the Maine
Forestry District should he any lars-
or than it is within the Maine Forest
ry District.
Il am not writing this letter to find
fault with any town official but sim
ply to bring the matter home to you
that we may cooperate to the best
possible advantage and do everything
we can to eliminate forest fires from
our State this season."
