Bobcats Killed
Manv Maine Deer

Greenville, Me, April 29-Frank
Capino the famous Indian guide has
just come out of the woods and sold
his seasons trapping andwhile prices
are not what they were a year ago,
when he came out with between one
and two thousand dollars worth of
pelts, he is satisfied with his winters
work. Capino, who has been a guide
for many years has devoted most Of
the time the past two seasons to
trapping for there was more money
in it. During the spring and sum-
mer however, he will be back on his
old job, and will show the city chaps
the best hunting grounds. In this
connection he says 1.-THE fishing for
trout. salmon and lake trout is at
it's high mark all around Moosehead
just now.
THE bobcats destroyed a great
many deer last winter although there
are still plenty for the hunter, quite
q good many bear, few moose but
no caribou. There are fish every
where and believe that the tour
lists will have a good fishing season
the coming summer.
I'VE had lots of snow along the
Allagash the past winter, an aver

lagash last fall was the famous base
ball party, whom 1 know well, made
up of some of the Red Sox, Brook

Capino is a full blooded Indian but
well educated and very much of
gentleman. His association with
people of culture and travel on long
trips into the forest has broadened
him and he has the bearing of a
Travelled man, although he has been
practically all his life in the woods
or remote villages. He is a great
reader, always providing for this
when he makes his long trips into
the wilds. On his last trip he was
two and a half months alone, his
brother Simon joining him at the
end of that time, but the hours of
leisure did not drag for he had as
he expresses it "plenty of good read.

Arbor Day and Other Matters

NbluuelOfu JOufnal)
Like Mr.. Dick, who it will be re-
membered, couldn't keep King
Charles head out of his memorial,
Governor Baxter doesn't seem able
to keep his particular obsession out
of his Arbor Day proclamation De-
claring that Arbor Day has special
significance for the State of Maine, he
continues:
Over fifteen million acres of all the
lands in the state out of the total of
nineteen million acres are covered
with trees. These vast areas once
were the property of our people. This
great inheritance was suuandered nv
our forefathers and Maine today owns
but few thousand acres of forest
from which most of the timber has
been sold.
To those who are willing to give
both sides to the controversy a fair
SHOW 1t would almost seem as though
the proportion of 100000 acres now
covered with trees to the total of 49,
100000 acres included within the
states boundaries proves the cause
of forest conservation has been as
safe under private ownership as it
could have been if our forefathers
had not "squandered" our heritage
Incidentally it may be permitted us
to say that The observance of Arbor
Day is calculated to inculcate a love
for trees in particular and all nature
in general, rather than contempt for
our forefathers because of their al
legged shortsighted policy in this re-
spect.

"If you don't buy what the other
fellow produces he cannot buy what
you produce"
FACTS TO CONSIDER

Never before was the need for
products SO great, never before was
such valuable producing machinery
and facility available, never before
vas there so much that needed to be
done. | have just returned from
Europe and came with renewed ad-
miration for the courage, the enter
prise, the determination displayed in
Italy, Belgium, France and England.
Germany was ahead of all of them IN
production. Is it possible that after
having won the war; we of the Allied
nations, with everything in our
hands, will allow Germany to win the
pace through the efforts of her labor?
Labor on the whole can be paid
only what labor as a whole earns, and
if some sections of labor exact more
than their share of the current pro-
duce of the world, other sections are
going to suffer"
The above is from an address by
Charles NJ. Schwab before a chamber
Of commerce recently. Mr.. Schwab is
just back from Europe. He is in
position to know what he is talking
about 1t is well also to remember
that he is the man neither Germany
nor England could buy during the
war. When he had demonstrated
that he could build submarines, that
before had required seventeen
months in construction, in the short
period of five months, Germany Of
fered him a hundred million dollars
to break his contract with Kitchener,
and England hearing of it countered
with an offer of one hundred and fifty
millions. He laughed at both and full
filled his contract notwithstanding
all of Germany's efforts to block him,
which shows what men like Schwab
think of contracts.

page lay in front of him. He
seemed set for the afternoon. He
was by turns vehement, suave, con-
fidential, stern and soft. On the
Republican side of the chamber two
Senators dozed; on the Democratic
side five Senators were in their seats.
Three of these sat in a row talking
and laughing in undertones. Prob
ably they were laughing at La Fol-
lette. Save for these La Toilette
talked to empty benches. Nobody on
the Senate floor paid the slightest
attention to what he was saying. One
reporter sat in the press gallery
reading a proof. A careful scrutiny
of the Washington papers failed to
reveal line of the La Toilette
speech or any reference to it.
La Toilette talked himself out in
the war. Nobody pays any attention
to what he says, and yet the man
goes on and on.

"Why Not Boost Trade at Homer"


So asks subscriber who is also an
advertiser in a neighboring city, one
of the kind a newspaper likes to have
because he cooperates, gets results
and shares the credit with the paper
which helped him. Accompanying
his request he sends a copy of letter
he wrote to a large Boston concern
that had proposed an advertising
project.
Here is some of the letter, showing
at least that the writer is willing to
boost:
Dear Sir:-I have just been talk
ing your advertising project over with
Mr. and I think it good one. 1
must say, however. without any per-
sonal interest whatever, except what
advertising benefit I may get out Of
it, that l am sure you are making a
mistake by not using the Kennebec
Journal of Augusta, Me. Consider
the size of our State. You have both
ends. BUT WHAT ABOUT THE
MIDDLE? The Kennebec Jour-
nal prints $4,000 papers. Gardiner
is a city of only about 5000 and can
say with safety that $500 K. J. come
here every day. This paper also COW
ers Waterville, Augusta, Hallowell
and Winthrop; also many of the
smaller places in the central part of
Maine"
BY way of exchange of compliment
and saying something which seems
pertinent we would remark that if
more of the home talent in business
followed this subscribers example
there would be more trading done at
home. Convincing the home folks
you have the right wares and fair
prices must help to that end.

CLEANUP WEEK

When John Wesley, preaching his
famous sermon ION Dress" reclared
that: "Cleanliness is indeed next to
godliness," he little realized what en-
barrassment he was inflicting on flu
ture generations of youth, in whose
ears the admonition would be dinged.
Nevertheless he did a good job.
Those who are urging the people
Of their respective communities to go
the limit on cleanup week" are also
doing a good job and everybody
should get in on it,
In some cities the chambers of
commerce. the schools, the churches
and civic committees of all sorts and
kinds cooperate and put across" a
campaign that makes of that COM
munity better place in which to live
and do business, because of this sue
cessful organizing and working for
the betterment of the community.
Wonderful results can be accom-
plished in this way. Where all work
for the good of all it is like taking an
immunity bath, and leaving the
grouches, the selfish disregard of
others and petty prejudices in among
the discarded filth and rags. Fresh
paint isn't hypocrisy, it really pre-
serves things and helps those who
apply it to try and live up to it. Try
it.
