Potato Growers Purchase Certified
Seed
The efforts of potato growers to
secure the best possible certified
seed at the lowest possible cost
have met with such success in the
past three years, that this year they
purchased in the neighborhood OF
100 bushels Of State Certified
Maine Cobbler seed potatoes. Ap-
proximately $50 different farmers
secured potatoes in this way this
year, which is an increase of almost
100 individuals over the past three
years. Farmers are rapidly COMING
to understand the value of planting
high class certified seed potatoes
and in all probability this effort OF
growers to secure good seed will
reach more and more farmers each
year. What the potato growers
have accomplished through this
ability to cooperate, can be accom-
plished by any other group of grow
ers ifthey can get together.

when 1t became known that Frank

There were reports of fight and
drinking party, but the ac-
cused as well as Lynch and Ed
ward Corner in whose room tho
shooting took place, stated that
there was no quarrel whatever and
very little drinking. FitZachery, a
member of the National Guards,

The latter made no complaint
about the affair and was apparent

incident.
Most of the evidence was re-
corded yesterday, but no DISPOSE

r. V. Meyer expressed desire for
some evidence as to the treatment
given itzachery's finger. The
nurses evidence, accompanied by
statement from one of the dis
pensary doctors was sufficient to
eXonerate the accused.

Absence of important bids under
the market was attributed to a
fresh sinking spell in the volatile
Auburn shares. which skidded to
another new low for the year at

Various leaders. while holding a
narrow range, moved back and
