Synopsis
Excerpt from The Presque Isle Register, 1904
Maysville, at the time of annexation with Presque Isle, contained a large starch factory besides several saw mills; but this is exclusively an agricultural section. The capacity of the starch factory at that time was 727 tons, consuming bushels of potatoes annually. In the spring of 1880, nearly 500 trees, mostly rock maple, were set out along the highways by members of the Maysville Grange. Much pride is taken in the excellent roads throughout the town. The introduction of the use of potato machinery, which was about ten years ago, has greatly increased the acreage of that standard crop.
