Must Soon Come to

resentative in the present j gislature
from Bangor and long active in the
lumber business, advising of his To-
cation with the Sands Lumber Com
pany at Sands, Mich, where they
are concerned with the handling of
hardwoods. He states that there is
not any great amount of hardwood
left in the south or middle west and
that is is certainly a case of some
time coming to Maine.
Mr.. Ingraham also indicates GER
tain other possibilities that may
mean very much more in the utili-
zation of the hardwoods of Maine.
he says:
IT am making a check up on new
process of curing hardwood which
poisons the wood against all rot, dote
or stain and leaves poor grade of
hardwood worth as much as high
grade, and it is coming through to
date 100%c. 1t further takes out all

truthfully made.
When one watches a big circus ar
rive in town, and see the long line of
wagons, making their way to the lot,
and the great tents sprouting like
mammoth mushrooms, do you ever
stop to consider the expenditure of

bring the show here?
Have you ever wondered about the
problems of feeding, housing and
transporting the men and women,
children and animals who make up
the population of that travelling city?

forever gambling with the weather
since rain or unreasonable weather
may make weeks Of preliminary work
