We Want Waldo County People
to Stay in Waldo County.

The Portland Express of a recent date
has the following loyal letter:
AUGUSTA, July 90. (SpeciaD-Thou-
sands of invitations were sent out bv
Governor Milliken to Maine people all
over the world, inviting them in the name
of the State to visit their old homes dur
ing the Centennial year. A great many
OF the people reached by these invita-
lions have written their thanks Tor the
same and some of the letters contain
more than mere formal "thank you''
expression-the sweet old there's no
place like home" being the general
theme One has been received this week
from Henry E. Thomas of San Lorenzo,
! Cal, which carries that tone. He does
not give his former residence in Maine.
but that he remembers and loves the Pine
Tree State can be seen in the following
extracts from his letter:
II am sorry l cannot visit my old State
this summer, as my wife planned to 60 to
Canada and has gone for few weeks
vacation, but my heart is with YOU and
some day will visit my old State that l
love every inch Of"
Then comes a few pointed statements
about the two States that tells heap,
big story, including:
"a man can make as good living in
Maine as he can in California. There is
no money growing on the trees out here
All the money have got have had to
work for and the rest of the hustlers get
theirs the same way. We had beauti-
full Winter last Winter, but not enough
rain for the farmers. We have no rain
in Summer out here. 1t is very dry and
without plenty of water you cannot do
much at farming in this country. There
are no beautiful summers like those of
Maine. We have good roads, plenty of
work, good wages. Living is high. Every
thing we use is high. Most of the work.
ing people have some money. There are
no awfully poor people that l know of
here"
Mr. Thomas closes 0y saying he and
his wife worked hard for what they have
saved and appreciated the value of it
but Maine is still good enough for him
and he intends to visit the old State.

The remarkable fact was brought out
at a recent hearing in Easton efore the
Sta Highway Commission, says the
Aroostook News, that the farms on the
l8 1-2 mile road from Mars Hill through
Easton Center to Pressure Isle were esti-
mated to be worth 81, 900, 900. The Hay-
den farm alone on this road, is valued at
500, 600, and is called by the State asses
sors the finest farm in Maine. If there is
any other IS IL mile stretch of country
road in America whose abutting property
composed wholly of farms, is worth four
millions of dollars, we would like to hear
of it, for we believe such roads to be ex-
ceedingly rare. There are other roads in
Aroostook county which have Just as
valuable farms along their routes, but
being shorter, the total valuation would
not run up to such figure.

The great battle of 1920 will be fight
between the radicals and the conserve

intermixed with taints of socialism, sug-
gestions of government ownership of
great public utilities, and SO on. The Re-
publicans have nominated conserve

cast upon conservative planes. They

The tendency of wages for farm labor
is downward, according to a statement
from the employment bureau OF the State
department of agriculture. This COIN
cides with slowing down of employment
in city Industries. AS establishments
are running shorter time, or employing

What is Vicks?

Vicks is the invention of a North Carolina
druggist, Mr. L. Richardson. During his years
of experience behind the prescription counter,
Mr.. Richardson came to realize the need for some
effective and convenient method of treating dis
eases Of the respiratory organs, such as spasmodc
Group, pneumonia, bronchitis, etc. The only way
to get medication directly to these parts is III vapor
form, since internal medicines 60 only the stomach.
Mr.. Richardson finally worked out process
of combining the standard, time-tested remedies
-Camphor, Menthol, Turpentine, Oil of Eu-
calyptus, etc--in salve form, so that when
applied to the body, the ingredients would be
vaporized by the body heat This preparation he
called Vicks VapoRub.
