Boston, March 20.-The breaking

conditions in the northern sections
of New England, such as have not
been known in at least a half CEN
tury. In many parts of Northern
Maine, New Hampshire and Ver-
mont the past winter has been q
veritable tragedy. People in many
towns and cities and in many coun-
try places have suffered privations
that seem unbelievable. Towns in
Northern Maine have been cut
OF from the life of the world for
months and have been on the verge
of starvation.
In waldo County. Maine, for In
stance. there has been over five feet
Of snow on the level since Decem-
ber, and the only means Of travelling
was by means of snow shoes. The
wells had frozen early in Decem-
Der and both the people and the
cattle through that section had been
dependent on snow water.

In some parts of Maine there has
not been a pound of sugar since the
first of last December. scarcely any
coal, and wood has been selling at

could stand such q winter because
they were accustomed to storing
provisions enough 10 last them for

railroads and the automobile and
the small country store people have
not been 1dQinE that sort Of thing.
