W h y He Called t Portland Cement n 1824, an Englsh mason wanted to produce a better cement than any then n use. To do ths he burned fnely ground clay and lmestone together at a hgh heat. The hard balls [called clnker] that resulted were ground to a fne powder. When a mxture of ths dull gray powder wth water had hardened, t was the color of a popular buldng stone quarred on the sle of Pordand off the coast of Eng' land. So ths mason, Joseph Aspdn, called hs dscovery pordand cement. That was less than one hundred years ago. Pordand cement was not made n the Unted States untl ffty years ago. The average annual producton for the ten years followng was only 36,000 sacks. Last year the country used over 470,000,- 000 sacks of pordand cement. Capacty to manufacture was nearly 600,000,000 sacks. Cement cannot be made everywhere because raw materals of the necessary chemcal composton are not found n suffcent quanttes n every part of the country. But t s now manufactured n 27 states by 120 plants. There s at least one of these plants wthn shppng dstance of any communty n ths country. To provde a cement supply that would always be ample to meet demand has meant a good deal n cosdy experence to those who have nvested n the cement ndustry. There have been large captal nvestments wth low returns. n the last twenty-fve years, 328 cement plants have been bult or have gone through some stage of constructon or fnancng. 162 were completed and placed n operaton. O n ly 120 of these plants have survved the fnancal, operatng and marketng rsks of that perod. T h er capacty s nearly 30 per cent greater than the record year s d emand.

The thunder of the mmense rockets and the brllancy of the set peces and ground work reverberated all over the town to gve defnte proof that a far was n progress. On Thursday nght confett nght was held and vstors gave vent to the last remanng bt of exuberance. The vaudevlle on the stage for the three days and frst two evenngs was remarkably clean cut and effectve. The Danube tro was the only act engaged ths year but ther performance* was so novel and so well done that everybody appeared to be satsfed. The act conssted of only a few stunts but each was dstnctve and well lked. Each day, durng the afternoon, selectons were rendered by the Houlton Male sngng socety and. f the applause may be taken as a crteron, they flled an mportant place n the afternoon's entertanment. Wll Robbns, formerly wth Sousa s band also gave several vocal solos. Th* Mdway The mdway, crowded wth the usual attractons drew the customary daly crowds to the booths, the games- <of skll, the freaks, merry-go-round and others. Extendng from the southern end of the grandstand to ust above the gate was a double lne of booths. t was possble, all along the lne to secure enough varetes of mpeccable food to satsfy the most epcurean taste. Here also could one never fal to get a beautful baby doll, prceless slverware, tableware, gglng monkeys and all manner of treasures. All that was necessary was to take a chance and the man sad you would wn. Just try t and see, he sad, and some of them dd. They all won somethng. On the mdway, n addton to the attractons that one sees every year, were the sde shows, and freaks where every mstake that nature ever made was commercalzed for the beneft of the far vstors nsatable curosty. The bally-ho men outdd themselves to lure the curous to see Madame Bozo, Fatma and the other assembled curous of questonable authentcty. Ther ntrnsc value was, however, of small mport to any and all who wshed to see. The far vstor s lookng for a chance to get bamboozled and does not care partcularly who does t. Along the mdwav the daly mllng of the crows, the shreks of laughter, the good natured banter, the stop lu re and there all along the lne and the general atmosphere of rallery seemed to abound everywhere s u far ndcaton of the state of mnd of everybody who comes to vst a far. Here may be secured a far estmate of the opnon of the far as a whole. The fact that there was heard no murmurs of dscontent, no complants, no atmosphere of restrant, may he taken as the unsolcted testmonal of crowds that they were satsfed and that t was a gemd far. Automoble and Farm Machnery The exhbts and dsplays of auto mobles and farm machnery seen ths year was admtted by all who saw f to be one of the best n the far's hstory. The number of vstors attracted by the vared and complete assortment of mechancal contrvances of every descrpton attested to ts success. The exhbt of the Eastern Tractors company, featurng the Talkng Studebaker, was perhaps the most novel as an advertsng medum to nterest and attract. The lne was under the supervson of W. V. Van Duzer of New York cty, who carred on a most nterestng conversaton wth "Studo as the latter told all about hs wonderful self.

Just below ^nd on the same sde was found the exhbt of The Art Novelty shop. The dsplay ncluded all manner of ewelry well arranged n such a fashon as to excte the envy of all who saw t. Many vstors stopped longngly as they passed to vew the luster ware and hand tooled leather goods. The Untaran Sewng club was the thrd booth on the same sde where root beer and corn cakes were on sale throughout the three days. Other temptng thngs were also ncluded and crowds that were n front of the space most of the tme were drawn there ether by the excellent qualty of the food or the charmng lades who dspensed t. More ewelery then followed and next came the P. of H. lunch and drectly opposte the vared exhbt of the Houlton Grange. As usual the latter booth, desgned to show clearly the resources of Aroostook county, had a well balanced and credtably arranged showng of fruts and vegetables that was an educaton n tself to any one who was vstng the far for the frst tme.

Smyrna s whch grow wld n the sand mountans n ther backyards. The man street of Ocracoke s a ' creek. The town has no streets or roads.only lttle footpaths runnng down to the beach, or connectng the ( rear door of the dweller wth that of another. There s not an offcer o f! the law n town and although some o f the doors have locks, relcs of bygone da^s, the keys long have been lost and forgotten. The town s on an sland by the name name, ffteen mles n length fcarely a mle wde and fve hours ourney by boat from the manland. T h e sland of Ocracoke s wthn nght of the graveyard of the Atlantc, Hatteras wretched shoals, and occasonally at dawn the natves have nrlnen to fnd an ocean steamer ntranded almost n ther yards. Horses run wld outsde ths lttle town, ust as do the mustangs n solated sectons of the Western plans. Cattle, as wld as on the pampas of Argentna rove the ocean beach to the northward. There are no dogs on the nland but cats have multpled untl there are hundreds. Havng rd the Tllage of mce and rats the felnes h are almost eradcated the many anakes whch once thrved n Ocracoke. There are thousands of chckens about the place but they are communty property and no fences to reatrlct them are n evdence anywhere. Tam e geese brants and ducks also are numerous. They are used to decoy the mllons of Labrador wld fowls whch swarm n the marshes of Ocracoks and Currtuck to feed. Old Fashoned Dancer The people are ust as unusual as th e town tself. They dance almost nghtly, but ther dances are the ones ntroduced by ther grandfathers and th e shmmy, tango and fox trot are as strange here as a crme. A favorte melody of he sland orchestra s Pop Goes the Weasel. Lamp lght s the only llumnaton after dark. The great lghthouse of the vllage sheds ts beam over Ocracoke as t Eashea far out to sea to warn away navgators. Meals n the town cost 80 cents and lodgng can be procured for 10 cents. Hosts usually are angry f ther guest does not eat heartly of the supper, whch ordnarly conssts of fresh fred fsh, fred chcken, fred ham, stewed oysters, clam chowder, baked potatoes, rce, hot cakes, coffee and fg preserves.

The vllagers are a bg sun-tanned lot, runnng to blue eyes and freckles. The town s one of the hstorc spots n the Southland. The frst Englsh-speakng colonsts to arrve n the Western world landed frst at Ocracoke. They were the lost colonsts of Vrgna Dare who went to Roanoke sland and vanshed. Elward Teach the prate Blackbeard, caroused here, gave the place ts name and met hs death, accordng to legend. He was klled when a Brtsh naval expedton attacked hs two shps.

There are about 80,000 pleasure cars owned n the State, and about 20,000 trucks. At the rate of $4.60 each, these 100,000 cars would brng the total tax up to $460,000. Then n addton to ths, must be fgured the tax derved from sales of gasolne to be used n cars comng nto Mane from other states. Returns receved from the dstrbutors already show that the tax for the month of July wll amount to over $37,000 and all of the dstrbutors have not yet fled ther returns. Mr. Hayford fgures that on the bass of 750,000 a month for the fve months of the busy summer season May to September nclusve and half of that amount for the other seven months of the year, that the total there represented of $425,000 would be a very conservatve estmate of a full year's revenue from tn1tax. Referrng to the announcement made yesterday that there wll he a drop n the prce of gasolne. Mr. Hayford sad that as matters have turned out the gasolne tax n Mane mght well have been fxed at two cents a gallon nstead of one cent and receved.etters from offcals of that state nqurng about the Mane law, whch would ndcate that Lttle Rlode s consderng passng such a B m tax law.
