is ready to give his figures any time
the packer will make his own public,
under a sworn statement. 1t would
undoubtedly show that the packer
was the one getting the pay for the
farmers time as well as for his own.
The farmer might be ashamed at his
own showing in permitting such
situation.
Somewhat amusing is Mr.. Bakers
picture of the sorrows likely to result
to the farmer with the skipping of
even one season of the corn pack,
both in the loss resulting from the
abandonment of his corn acreage
and in the statement that corn, "once
off the market, cannot be restored to
it's former place in less than three or
four years, and then only at a large
expense, in which the planters will
| have to share in diminished returns"
Trust the packer not to forget the
farmers share in diminished returns.
1t may be noted that the public did
not lose it's appetite for white flour,
for sugar nor for many other oata
bles shut off during the war times.
get how to eat canned corn. Furth-
ermore, the farmer can still find q
use for what sweet corn he chooses to
grow for himself. We shall feel pref
ty good next winter. when we are
feeding to our stock from the silo the
whole ears of corn, of so much
greater food value, than the cobs
which fall from the packers table.
The farmer who never looks for
great financial gains, can do without
the packer if his prices do not suit
him. But the packer cannot do with
out the farmer. and it SENS it is
really Mr.. Baxter who is most trou-
bled about the abandonment of corn
growing. In such case it might be
well for him not to insult the intel
ligence of the farmers by implying
that they do not know enough to I'M
derstand whether they are getting
money enough for their crops without
being told by the packers, or to do
thelr own leading, though following
the able leadership of Mr.. Crawford
That being so, they might find them
selves in sorry place, for while we
.,
and not all as ignorant or as Grasping
as MIR. Baxter has made himself APP
pear, they naturally want all they can
get because they have always had it,
and hence expect it.
The farmer intends in no way to
take advantage. He would like to
exist, and not to be regarded as too
unidentified to run his own business
When u fair understanding is
reached, granting to the farmers a
price they can be reasonably expected
to take, even though far below the
financial return demanded by the
packers for less expenditure of time
and labor, the sweet corn industry
can be resumed. Otherwise the pack
er can pack something else, and the
farmer can raise what seems to him
best.

BELIEVES IN MAINE
Author Curwood in
City Friday

Will Write Stories for Pine Tree Pic
lures, inc.-Hishiy Enthusiastic
Over Pine Tree State
James Oliver Curwood, novelist,
scenario writer and lover of the great
out-of doors, believes in Maine.
He was in Augusta for few min
utes Friday. He was very, very tired,
none too well, but enthusiastic over
what he had seen here, since his ar
rival in Portland last Monday.
Man, there's no other place like 1t
in the country" said he to Journal
reporter. "Why in time so many peo-
have overlooked Maine as place for
taking motion pictures. can't under
stand You have everything here.
California isn't to be mentioned in
the same breath"
Of course, Mr.. Curwood merely
said what Maine people have so long
believed: that Maine is about the
best little State in the country. But
coming from a man of such distinc-
ton as he is, one who had never be-
fore seen the State, it is a tribute
that is bound to be appreciated.
"In all my peregrinations over this
continent" said the writer, Il have
seen scenery of many kinds. l have
seen types of people and living con-
ditions. But this I want to say:
Right here in Maine, according to my
views, you have what is left of the
CT n words
Maine seems to be the last stand of
Yankeesm. You are free of the dis
turbinS foreign elements. You are
the real Americans"
Four days is too short time to see
! Maine, but in the four days he has
been here, Mr.. Curwood has taken
in a good part of it, especially along
shore. He made the trip from Port
land to Boothbay Harbor by auto
mobile, took a steamer out to Monhe-
gan. saw Rockland and its surround
ings, admired the beauties OF Castine
and the Islands in the vicinity, saw
the sights of Bar Harbor and wound
up Friday afternoon by going from
Augusta to Poland Spring.
There is no coast in the world like
that of Maine" volunteered Mr. Cur
wood 1.-THE only thing that resem-
| bles it in the least is the north shore
of Lake Superior, but that is SO lin
tied in extent that there is no COM
| parison. Names coast has variety,
| everything that could possibly be
asked for story or play or for home
| surroundings.
Il haven't been into the woods Of
your State yet. But | am going some
day. l am coming back to Maine. 7
hope to build q summer home here,
or at least spend much of my time
| here"
In view of the fact that Mr.. Cur
wood had been out of the hospital
| but few days before his coming to
Maine. that he became n bit seasick
while hobnobbing around with some
of Names lobstermen and that he was
rushed about to cover the greatest
possible amount of ground in q linn
| tied time, it is rather remarkable that
! he should be SO enthusiastic.
But his enthusiasm is genuine. He

Not the least interesting feature
about the visit of Mr.. Curwood to
Augusta Friday came through an en-
tircly accidental meeting with Major
Holman Day.
Major Day was dining at an ad-

joining table at the Augusta House.
With him were his new director ana
other members of the force OF the
Holman Day Productions, Inc, Tor
whom Major Day is writing series
of Maine plays. The greeting between
the two authors was most cordial.
Major Day volunteered the use OF
anything he might have in his studio
as well as any personal service he
could give. The two authors with
their friends were snapped" on the
piazza of the Augusta house after
which Major Day started on his work
and Mr.. Curwood went to the Maine
State museum preparatory to driving
cross-country to Poland Spring.
