A. NJ. G. soule. chief of the Division

A. NJ. G.. Soule, chief Of the Division
of Inspector of the Maine Depart
ment of Agriculture. declared Satur-
day that some u the enforcement
problems are discouragins. but when
it is considered that 1o years ago
practically every closed in window
with a dust proof protection at the
lack was found either in boot and
shoe store or dry goods store, and
that now there is practically no con-
fectionery or fruit store. drug store or
up to date grocery in the State of
Maine that does not boast of this sort
of equipment, we can feel encourag ed
at the results of our recommended
tons, as in many. many cases these
windows have been installed upon the
suggestion of food officials.
The clause in the law providing
that a dust proof covering shall be
offered to all articles of food, which
has been enforced largely in an edu-
cational way. has been very helpful"
said Mr.. Soule.
I'm every town there are bottling
shops, ice cream parlors. grocery
stores and canning factories where, at
the request of inspectors. screens for
the windows and doors have been in
stalled, and without protest. There
are still many conditions that need
remedying. The country slaughter
house and the lack of inspection
therein, is to be greatly deplored
While we fully believe that condi-
tions are better than they were a few
years ago, we feel that more legisla-
tion is necessary before the ideal can
be attained.
Every animal slaughtered and sold
for food should be subjected to some
sort Of an inspection. and some form
of license for the slaughtering bust
ness should be provided. Every ice
cream parlor should be licensed, not
with the idea of obtaining license
fees for revenue. but in order to prop
eriy maintain the sanitation of the
place where this product is dispensed.
as ice cream is no longer a luxury
and should be dispensed very care
fully. especially to children. Every
bottling establishment should be Ii
censed. Such regulations are now in
force in many states.
Some legislation should be enacted
to regulate cold storage. There is no
doubt but that cold storage plants are
blessing. and it is not my desire to
make claim against any particular
cold storage concern. The cold
storage plant is a very useful institu-
ton for any community Here large
quantities of food products can be
acquired in times of plenty and stored
for distribution in times of scarcity.
'Disregarding any claim that can be
made against proprietors of cold
storage boarding of food. neverthe-
less, they should be regulated They
should not be prohibited. their bust
ness should not be hampered, they
should not be unnecessarily inter-
fered with. they should not be

Fares Increased on

a decision was rendered Saturday

authorizing the Cumberland County

schedule Of rates upon one days no.
tice to the public and the commits
sion for street railway service in
creasing the present base ticket fare
for single ride from seven to eight
cents, the present base ticket zone
rate from . 1-3 to 2-3 cents and the
present cash fare to 10 cents. The
company is also authorized to with
selling for 20 cents.
we do not know what the future
holds for the Portland Street Rail-
way. or any other street railway in
the State of Maine" say the COM
miSsioners in their decision.
Some people have suggested that
in order to enable the railways TO
properly function. either the State
must make contribution or the
municipalities being served permitted
by legislative act to make substantial
contributions. this being upon the
theory that the patrons cannot go
above certain limit or base fare, and
that if the business interests of the
several communities served feel and
sense the necessity of street railway
service. the people as a whole must
make some contribution in order to
lessen the burden of the individual
patrons of the street railway
These suggestions are all in the
air. but show that people generally
realize the delicate situation of
street railways everywhere. We shall
not close this matter upon our
docket. but leave it open for further
adjustment, whether such adjustment
be upward or downward"

ADJUSTMENTS
EARLE WILLIAMS
PROVES A GOOD
HIGHWAYMAN

Colonial patrons are so dcCuSto"eo
to seeing handsome Earle Williams
as a debonair society man that they
are going to be shocked when he ap-
pears as a highwayman in Captain
Swift" the Nitagraph feature booked
COR the Colonial today. Williams
makes a good highvayman. too
good in two meanings Of the word.
He acts the role to perfection and ne
robs the rich so that the poor may BE
helped.
Captain Swift" is by no means a
crook" play Half century ago 1t
was the sensation of the American
and the European stage and 1t has
been played in by the most noted ac-
tors of the world. But great as was
the success of the drama on the
stage. its presentation then could not
be compared with what is done with
it in moving pictures, for the wider
range Of the camera and all outdoors
enables scenery to be presented that
could only be limited at on the stage.
Although Captain Swift" is BAN
dit who has reformed, there Is moth
ing vicious in the character, as 1t Is
depicted on the screen.
A prologue. with it's scenes laid in
the bush country of Australia. where
he piled his refarious trade, gives at
mosphere and lays the foundation OF
the story to come. Rather than show
ing Captain Swift as a crook, ban
dit, a robber and thief he is shown
with nothing but kindness in his
heart In making his escape across
the hot sandy desert after a bank
robbery he stops to succor pros
pector at the imminent danger of be-
ing captured. And again he is shown
releasing a man he has held up be-
cause his victim has shown brave
front. 1t was his wont to rob only
those who could afford to lose, and
most of his i'll gotten gains went to
charity These scenes play an impor-
tant part in his following history, as
shown on the screen. He becomes a
real hero No harsh thoughts are
given to his unfortunate past. and
there is nothing but sympathy and
best wishes for Captain Swift when it
looks as if he must give up his titled
sweetheart and return to Australia
for a term in prison.
Other good things on the Colonial
program for today are "Footlight
Maids" Sunshine comedy, the Kin
ograms and Burton Holmes Travel
ogue.-Adv.

SLAM Bang Jim" is the title of the
big feature that will be given at the

liam Russell is the star. 1t is some
thing SO entirely new and different

fore that the theatre should be
crowded From all accounts received
from other cities, SLAM Bang Jim"
is the type of picture that gives gen.
uine pleasure to old and young alike.
1t is fast and funny. without being
"slapstick;" it has delightful love

The Maine Crop Situation

Frank S. Adams. whose duties as

pearance of crops:
The apples in this vicinity are very
light and the crop will be small. In
York county the crop is good and re-
ports from Massachusetts and New
York say that the crop there is good.
Corn is very backward and if we do
not very soon have some corn grow

crop will be nearly failure. We had
so much cold and rainy weather
earlier in the season that the corn is
not in it's usual good condition at this
time.
The hay crop on the clay loan is
not so good as last year. while it APP
pears all right on the higher land.
should judge that the entire hay crop
this year would be about 10 per cent
short of last
The potatoes in the northern part
Of Aroostook seems to look better
than in the southern part. In gen.
eral | find that the planters them
selves estimate that the crop will be
about 20 per cent. short of last year.
Many poor stands are seen. If they
had existed last year we naturally
would have laid tito the borax that
did SO much damage. but this year it
was caused by the heat and dryness
in May planting.
The hay crop in Aroostook is about
normal. The oat crop is looking we'll.
