Maine will make a fine exhibit at the coming food fair in Boston. Paul Revere hall in the Mechanic's building has been set aside for Maine and will be fully occupied.
The central figure of the display will be the typical Maine sporting camp of logs, decorated with all the game birds and animals of Maine. The Old Town Indians will have a wigwam with basket and canoe workers at work, but the great feature will be the display of Aroostook products.
E. L. Cleveland of Houlton, the "potato king," has agreed to prepare the potato display from his great resources. Along with the exhibit will be shown the machinery of all kinds with which the Aroostook potato farmer plants and secures his tubers.
Through the aid of Hon. Thomas H. Phair of Presque Isle, the "starch king," and Miss Crosby, a very attractive exhibit of that product is assured. The people who are planning the Maine show declare that it will make a hit through its originality, and are spending all their energies toward that end.
