HOLLAND
When one speaks of Holland he usuallj
means the Netherlands, which word ol
itself means the lowlands. The Nether
lands is made up of 11 provinces of which
North Holland is one and South Holianc
is another. The capital of the former it
Amsterdam and the capital of the othei
is The Hague. The two Hollands have
an area a little less than three times tha1
of Waldo County and a population a little
more than twice that of the State ol
Maine. The Netherlands in Europe as a
whole has an area a little more than a
third of that of our State and has about
eight times as many inhabitants. The
Netherlands has as colonies, Borneo, the
Celebes, Java, the Moluccas, New Guinea
and Sumatra, all islands, located east ol
the Indian ocean and from 1000 to 200C
miles southerly from the Philippines.
These islands have an area 21 times as
large as that of the State of Maine and a
population one-third that of the United
States. In addition to this, the Nether
lands has Surinam, 'formerly known as
Dutch Guiana' which is in the northeast
part of South America, and is consider
ably larger than the State of Maine, and
has 70,000 people. Thus it will be seen
that the Netherlands, taken as a whole,
has dominion over a territory one-fifth as
large as the United States, and over a
population of more than 41,000,000 people.
These statistics show that commercially
at least the Netherlands is a country of
'considerable importance especially in the
tropical productions of her vast East In
dian possessions. The production of cane
sugar in Java is one-fifth that of all the
cane sugar producing countries of the
world. The people of the Netherlands in
Europe are commonly spoken of as the
Dutch, because they speak the Dutch
language, which is very ancient, and in a
large degree they have preserved and fol
lowed Dutch habits and traditions. The
colories of the Netherlands add little to
her military strength ana she has.no war
navy worth mentioning. The army which
she could put into the field would avail
little in the present world war. Never
theless this little country has played an
.important part in the struggle now going
on. At the beginning of the war the
Netherlands had a merchant marine of
about 1,100,000 tons. Her farmers are an
industrious people and her merchants are
enterprising business men. The major
part of the food resources of both con
tinental and colonial Netherlands was
poured into the lap of Germany. The
Holland provinces were especially active
in this trade and their importers bought
largely in the United States and sold to
Germany. Dutch ships sailed on the seas
of ail the world without being torpedoed,
carrying the sinews of war to the Huns.
After we entered the war we placed an
embargo on shipment to the Netherlands
and about that time the Dutch discovered
that they had over sold their food sup
plies. To make the situation worse, the
Germans, not being able to use the Neth
erlands any longer to their advantage,
cut of the coal supply of that country.
Germany was no longer their professed
friend. She shook her mailed fist and all
Netherlands trembled. Hunger and cold
threatened on one hand and invasion on
the other. A glance at the map of Europe
will show that in a geographical and in a
military sense the Netherlands are under
fbc thumb of Germany. All that has
prevented the application of force by
that thumb has Deen the dykes, the open
ing of which would prevent a land attack
by flooding the country. Had Germany
conquered France and England the Neth
Jands would not have waited long before
their turn would have come. As we have
said, the Dutch wanted food and had ships.
We wanted ships and had food. We offered
to exchange provided the food which we
supplied should not go to our enemies.
Germany said: “We will sink both ships
and cargoes.” The Netherlands stand
hesitant between hunger, and fear of
Germany. She has interned some 400,
000 tons of her ships, some in her own
ports, some in our ports and some in
South America. We have made recip
rocal arrangements with Spain, Norway
and Sweden and are lending them assist
ance. Our government stands firm. In
i this case and in its dealings with other
] neutral nations “over there” our diploma
cy has been wise and effective. Holland
! can expect no favors if she gives none.
Eventually the interned ships will be
turned over to the Allies, but we need
them now. We are making a tremend
ous effort to build them and we have
little sympathy for a country which
hoards ships when hunger stares her in
the face. It is now apparent to every
body that the Kaiser’s military despot
ism is doomed. The time has now come
when neutrals need not fear the Huns.
And the Netherlands must yield her ships
or they will be taken from her.
j MR. HOOVER IS MISTAKEN.
Mr. Hoover is reported to have said
: that the increase of food prices has been
: but 3 1-2 percent during the last year.
: That means that food which a year ago
cost one dollar now costs one dollar and
three and one half cents. The United
States Department of Labor comes for
ward with a statement that the price of
food in August last was 2 percent higher
then in the preceding month, and makes
the further statement that food is now 70
percent higher than it was five years ago
On the second day of this month figures
were given out by government investi
gators which showed that the cost of liv
! ing has increased more than 20 per cenl
in Bath and in Portland in the last six
months, and in Baltimore the increase
for (> months was more than 24 1-2 per
cent. Bradstreet’s weekly food index
states that the food prices of the last
I week of September, 1918, showed an in
■’ crease of 11.3 per cent over the like week
of last year. It seems rather unfortunate
that the government officials do not agree
I -.1_ olen
Mr. Hoover also states that the food bil
of the nation was $2,693,751,871 during
the months of April, May and June of this
year. We fail to see how he got his data
for that statement. We can any of us
estimate the cost of food, but if anybody
; thinks it possible that Mr. Hoover knows
what he is talking about, let that persot
undertake to find out what the cost of
food is to the people of Belfast for one
day. When he finishes that task faith
fully and gets an accurate result, he will
realize the impossibility of getting the
food cost, of the whole United States for
three months without the employment of
more than 200,000 inspectors and account
ants. Mr. Hoover has proved himself to
be an efficient and able Food Adminis
trator. He has done a great work and
his usefulness is recognized by all of us.
We deperd on his wisdom and ability to
properly manage our food conservation
until normal conditions return. We hope
he will leave percentages alone and will
not make non-essential or absurd esti
mates.
1HE U. S. WATER-POWER BILL
, This bill was passed by the House of
Representatives and went to the Senate
J where several amendments were added
: before it there received passage. There
are now therefore two bills, and it is not
worth while to discuss either of them be
cause the next regular step will be to
i submit both of them to a joint conference
committee which will probably formulate
a bill which is unlike either the House or
the Senate article. It may be said, how
ever, that the purpose of Congress evi
dently was to put the water-powers un
der government control sufficiently to
make them more useful and to enable the
government to have the right to collect
rental for their use. It is probable that
some sort of a compromise will be made
which will bring about an agreement be
tween the House and the Senate and we
shall have some kind of a water-power
law. Private interests in water-powers
are very large and in many instances have
been acquired at great expense and after
legal State sanction for acquisition or
i mprovement has been given. These in
terests will undoubtedly appeal to the
courts to test the constitutionality of the
new law and it seems that whatever may
be the final scope or fate of the bill it
will be delayed till it will have no value
as a war measure.
VERILY THEY WERE GIANTS.
We read in our cyclopedia that Miles
Darden was born in North Carolina in
1798 and died in Tennessee in 1857. He
was 7 1-2 feet high and weighed at his
death over 1,000pounds. We are further
i nformed by the same authority that dur
i ng the last four years of his life he be
came so corpulent that he was compelled
to refrain from great activity. Accord
i ng to the Old Testament, Goliath reach
ed a stature of 6 cubits and a span which
would be about 9 1-2 feet. Mr. Darden,
a lthough shorter, must have over match
ed Mr. Goliath in girth at least three
feet. As far as we were informed Phil
istia holds the record for human stature
but America claims the record for re
tundity.
On August 29th of this year the U. S.
Government paid out {156,000,000 for
war expenses and loaned to the Allies
(20,000,000 which was the largest expen
diture of any period of 24 hours. The
American public has no committee or
agency to inform it concerning the de
tails of these expenditures. We have
more than a guess as to where (640,000,
000 of airplane money were spilled and
perhaps sometime this month we may
get some further information when Mr.
Hughes’ report is expected to be handed
to the President. We notice, however,
that a Washington dispatch states dhat
this report will be suppressed till arrests
have been made, but that ought not to
occasion much delay.

WONDERS IN THE AIR.
W' -
Mail has been carried by airplane from
i Washington to New York at the rate ol
100 miles an hour. A machine carrying
1 men has made a flight of 2000 miles with
but two stops for oil and gasoline. An
airplane carrying 9 persons has flown
from France to'England. A big Ameri
can built Caproni made a try out trip
about three weeks ago and with 4 pas
j sengers and a ton of additional weight
; flew 2 1-2 miles above the earth’s surface
and on a straight away course made a
speed of 100 miles an hour. Gen. Persh
ing has cabled that American aviators
shot down 100 hostile planes and 21 bal
i loons from Sept. 26th to Oct. 1st. Next
spring we will drive the Germans from
the air. We might have been doing it
now if ordinary business sense had been
manifested by the swivel chair battalion.
It is said that the number of women
war workers in England is now more
! than 5,000,000. Before the war the num
ber was less than 200,000 and these
1 were mostly in textile mills. England
has sent one-half her working men into
the army, yet her output of steel, which
in 1914 was 7,000,000 tons will be 12,000,
000 this year. Last year she added 1,
000,000 acres to her cultivated area, and
increased her production of grain 850,000
tons and her potato crop 5,000,000 tons.
The work of the women and the use of a
large number of American tractors has
made this possible. Before the war Great
Britain raised each year about $1,000,000,
000 in taxes, last year she raised four
times that amount. England has risen to
the exigencies of these fateful days.
The United States Consul General at
Yokohama, Japan, says that in the first
two months of this year Japan invested
$226,000,000 in new enterprises and in
the extension of those already existing.
He also says that the largest additions
were to manufacturing industries.
NORTH WALDO POMONA.
There was a special meeting of North
Waldo Pomona grange with Sebasticook
grange, Burnham, Saturday, Sept. 28th.
The meeting was duly opened with
Worthy Master O. B. Dow presiding.
Other officers present were lecturer, stew
ard and assistant steward. The vacant
stations were very satisfactorily supplied
as follows: overseer, E. E. Davis; chap
lain, May Chandler; secretary, Cora Rey
nolds; Pomona, Ermine Davis; Flora,
Verdilla Pease; Ceres, May Twitchell;
gate keeper, F. A. McAllister. Vera
McGray presided at the piano. The choir
rendered a selection and degree work oc
cupied the time of the morning session.
Four granges were represented and the
reports were favorable.
At the noon recess all marched to the
dining hall where a bountiful dinner was
awaiting them. Members of the host
grange attended to the serving and an
enjoyable social hour added to the pleas
ure of the occasion.
The meeting was re-assembled in tha
fifth degree and after a song by the choir
E. E. Davis voiced the welcome of Se
basticook grange. C. C. Clements re
sponded in behalf of the visitors. Vera
McGray was called upon and responded
with an instrumental solo, and this was
followed by a vocal solo by Verdilla
Pease; readings by May Chandler, Clara
D. York and Fred Dodge, and a duet by
Verdilla Pease and E. E. Davis completed
the literary exercises, with the exception
of the topic, “Taxation as it applies to
the farmer, compared with other interests
of the State.” F. A. McAllister opened
the discussion and wan followed by
Worthy Master Dow, C. C. Clements, D.
M. Kimball, Worthy Lecturer and others.
The opinion of those speaking was nearly
evenly divided in regard to the question
of the farmer being overtaxed and many
good points were brought out in the dis
cussion.
After the customary acknowledgement
by the visitors for courtesies received,
grange was closed with the usual cere
monies and the Star Spangled Banner
was sung by the choir.

Mrs. Levi Curtis went to Northern New
York last week to visit relatives.
| Miss Edna Davis has gone to Milford,
Mass., with her aunt, Mrs. Mamie Joslin.
Harold Eastman, Elmer Colby, Norman
Davis and Hervie Jackson have entered
the U. of M. at Orono.
Everett Prescott and family of Union
recently visited his father, John W.
Prescott who is in failing health.
The infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Cunningham died with pneumonia and
and was buried Sept. 29th in the South
Montville cemetery.
Mrs. Alice Stover, who spent near
ly a year at North Searsmont, has re
turned home and is keeping house for
Levi Curtis while his wife is away.
Mrs. Enoch C. Pease spent a week in
Foxboro, Mass., visiting friends. She in
tended to have stayed two weeks but the
epidemic was raging so hard she was
glad to cut her visit short. She report
ed so many were dying off they had to
send to Warren, Me., for caskets, could
not get enough at home.
Damascus.
Damascus is the Turkish base in Syria
and Palestine and its capture probably
means the end of all Turkish resistance
to General Allenby in Palestine and Syria.
The city, which dates back to the dawn
of history, is the junction point of rail- |
roads leading to the port of Beirut and
Alleppo, 180 miles northeast.
Damascus is the capital of the vilayet
of Syria and has a population of about
150,000. It is one of the Holy cities of
the Mohammedans and the Arabs regard
it as one of the four paradises on earth.
The capture of Damascus marks an ,
advance of 130 miles by General Allenby’s
forces since Sept. 20th,the day he launched
his victorious attack north of Jerusalem.
In that time the British have captured
more than 50,000 prisoners, destroyed at
least three Turkish armies and driven the
enemy from Palestine and a great part of (
Syria.

Agricultural Advisors, Maine.
The department of agriculture today
innounced the appointment of thefollow
ng men to act with the district draft
>oards of Maine as advisers regarding
igricultural needs:
Frank S. Adams, Bowdoinham, Me.—
Agricultural adviser to district board for
Division No. 1 with headquarters at the
State House, Augusta, Maine.
Guy C. Porter, Houlton, Me.—Agricul
tural adviser to district board for Di
vision No. 2 with headquarters at Federal
building, Bangor, Me.
The agricultural advisers are not to be
members of the district boards but are to
furnish to the boards facts relative to
farm labor requirements, not only of their
own districts but of the entire country.
Such information will be supplied to the
advisers by the department of agricul
ture. The advisers also may concern
themselves with individual cases before
the district board. County agents of the
department of agriculture have been
supplied with questionnaires to be sent
out for the purpose of securing the facts
about farm labor needs in the counties.
“Aged, Infirm and Dependent.”
It appears that one Sanford Geary of
Bath deserted from Camp Devens, was
recently arrested in Portland, sent to
Fort Williams, Portland, and later to
Fert Merritt, New Jersey, and still later
across. It was thought that his desertion
would cause a forfeiture of all benefits
from State and government, but investi
gation revealed that Uncle Sam had no
intention of allowing the shortcomings or
misdeeds of his soldiers to make their
families suffer. Mrs. Geary is therefore
drawing $-17.50 per month from the gov
ernment, the federal aid and pay allot
ment.
Chairman Russell found that the State
agreed with the government view of the
matter and was advised to have Bath pay
the State aid due Mrs. Geary, as the
Slate would have to follow the govern
ment action in such cases. This means
that Bath will pay Mrs. Geary SI per day,
to be reimbursed by the State. She will
thus receive in all, $77.50 from Federal
and State, with the pay allotment.

itching of the nose, itching of the rectum,
short dry cough, grinding of the teeth,
little red points sticking out on tongue,
starting during sleep, slow fever.
The safe method for ridding the child
of worms is to use Dr. True’s Elixir.
Mrs. William G. Bonin, of Caddo, Okla
