Maine Pioneer Tells How
New Brunswick Folk Got

IN EARLY YEARS
WAS ONLY POTATO

BANGOR, Me, Aug. 16.-An
unroostook pioneer tells when and
how the first Aroostook potatoes
were raised and also accounts for
the application of the term Blue
nose" to the people Of New Bruns-
wick and those who once lived
-along the northern Maine border
He says:
The first potatoes planted in the
fAroostook Valley We're set out at

had a little patch OF new land, and
his wife insisted he should get some
. potatoes and plant them.
"He took his canoe and started
10 New Brunswick It was a long,
crooked route by water; the Aroos-
took Falls had to be carried around
going and coming. but there were
no customs officers 10 interfere and
he returned with a bushel OF pota-
toes. They looked so good that the
family ate about ha.f Of them. The
rest were planted. The story goes
. that Lovely took a spade and dug
holes that would hold about a peck
each. and his wife followed behind
1 and dropped a seed in each hole
and kicked in some dirt.
when fall came Lovely had for
got all about his potato crop. but
/ his wife had not; so one Sunday
morning they went out 10 investi-
gate. They uncovered a hill and It
was full TO the brim with great,
smooth, handsome potatoes, some Of
them Weighing two pounds. The
good wife filled her hat with the
products OF their first harvest and
they returned TO the cabin. When
the potatoes were cooked they
proved better than any the family
had ever eaten. The yield from the
half bushel planting filled the little
hole under the house that they call
ed a cellar and nearly fifty bushels
had to be p!tted out in-the field.
These potatoes were a variety
we'll known as the Early Blue. The
seed end was a blush purple tint
and they were called "Bluenoses," "
or the blue nosed potato. When the
soldiers came in after years they
were supplied with these potatoes
and they got 10 calling the people

GERMAN FINANCE
REPORT IN WEEK
Hughes Opposes ALL
American Board to Set
tie u. S. Claims

PARIS, July 2S.--The allied com
mittee on guarantees today decided
to present its report on the German
financial situation next week. The
report is virtually completed. but
the reparations committee has con-
sidered II unadvisable TO take any
action on the report or on the ques-
tion OF moratorium for Germany
until the allied premlers have passed
upon these matters at their coming
meeting In London.
The suggestion for postponlng the
London conference until after Aug
ust IS, is opposed in reparations cir
cles on the ground that the ques-
tion should be cleared UP before the
next monthly payment from Ger
many falls due, the middle OF Aug
ust. If It is decided TO delay the
London meeting beyond that date Il
is considered probable that the COM
mission will grant moratorium
for the August payment as a means
OF bridging over the situation until
the premiers have conferred on the
subject.
