Why shouldn't oar Norway become ia
nous for It's oats? Mr.. solomon K. Ed
wards has tried the cultivation of the Va.
rietv known as the Norway oats, getting
twenty pounds, or two thirds OF a bushel
OF seed in Bangor, and sowing them on
three quarters OF an acre Of land. They
are thriving bouniiiullr. Judging by the
specimen he shows us. SirteeR stalks, four
feet in height, from n single oat, being
the product now. lie counted fifteen
HUNDRED oats IRON one seed. Ii looks rs
if there would De- hundred bushels Ia
the acre, which is quite different from
thirty 10 forty bushels To the acre, from
three bushels of seed as we get from the
native Dat.
And still we have another variety prom
ising better things, from Oxford. Mr.. ).
:. Smith planted three quarts of seed,
called the excelsior, obtained from the Pa
tent Office. Washington. which. il is said
was imported from England. They have
done remarkably well, being ready To cut.
and Mr.. Smith SANS are the heaviest oats
he has ever seen. They are five and u
half feet in height, and very stalky,
ahead OF the Norway species, in every
particular.
lie will have specimen of them at the
fair Of the Oxford Agricultural Society.
Any thing TO rednce the price of such
desirable food for cattle as oats, will be
halted with qualification by all. Let our
farmers SOW the best varieties, by all
means.
We would take this occasion To invite
our farmers TO send in any thing worthy
Of notice, and We shall be happy to give
publicity to it.

Quoted for time with ability and profit

G..

This town and vicinity have met with
a great los. in the death Of Rev. Stephen
Sanderson. who died about the last oil
June. OF him, itcould be said with truth
he had not an enemy in the world. In
early life he dedicated himself to God
and through long life he sustained the
character of perfectly honest and
upright man. He was one of the pioneers
of Sweden. His occupation was farmer
in which lie was very successful. lie
very acceptably filled the pulpits of the
Congregational Meeting house in Sweder
and Lowell Center. when not otherwise
occupied. for long series Of years. Ant
let the weather be what it would, hi:
venerable form would be seen in his &C
customed place, and without hope oil
expectation Of pecuniary reward. His
age when he died was so years.

Mr.. .. G.. Bartlett has made con
tract with Mr. Bowker, the owner of the
famous mineral deposit in Paris, known
as Mt. Mica, TO mine for mica this season.
This locality has been known for many
years, having first been brought to public
notice 10y Hon. Z. l.. Hamlin and DR..
Holmes, both then residents of tl.is town.
Ii has yielded many very rare minerals,
some of which have found their way TO
the principal cabinets OF the world. Prof
Verrill few years since, found one spec
linen of tin ore, nearly pure. that weigh
ed five pounds, and several smaller piec-
e. have since been discovered. Nothing
OF commercial value has been secured,
heretofore, though some ofthe specimens
have been sold forhigh prices. Mr.. Bart
lett has in his shop bashel or two oil
specimens, which he Is confident can be
made available in the manufacture of hi:
conical stove covers. This cover is prov.
ing decided success, and he is manu-
featuring a large quantity to meet the ad
vance orders already received.

The GRAND TRUyK.-We are glad to
notice that the prejudice which existed
against the Grand Trunk Railway last
year rs passenger route, has pretty
much died out, and that the road this
summer is carrying As large number OF
passengers as in any seas on before, con-
sidering the lesssned amount Of travel in
every direction. The express trainsfr
Portland to Gorham which have been an
addition to the ordinary facilities for
summer travel. have been doing a very
fair business. and are decided relief to
the through trains. They are in charge
of Messrs. Stowe, Hooper and Pratt. all
Of whom have been in the employ of the
company for years, and are thoroughly
versed in railroad matters and are agreea-
BILE men to travel with. Much of the in
creased popularity Of the road with the
public is owing to the recent action ofths
management by putting the track in good
order. An immense amount Of new rail
has been laid, old sleepsrs replaced by
new ones, and the work Of reballasting
will begin soon, we hear. The trains
have run with remarkable regularity and
promptness, and for months not train
of any description has been off the track,
so far as we can learn. 1t is evident that
the initials G.. T. X. don't stand for $50
ing To RUM so much as it did once.

Under sec. II, Oh, 4. revised statutes,
the authority of married woman, who Is
executrix, or administrative, ceases on
her marriage; and the idea has prevailed
in the State, that this provision prevented
the appointment of women to the trust
after they were married. Butthe Bangor
Wing says that test case recently argued
and decided in Penobscot County sustains
the right OF married woman to hold the
trust; therefore the law is. that woman
already married, although the trust had
been exercised by her and was ended by
the marriage, may Immediately there
afterward be rs-appointcd to it.

came manageable and overturned the

badly hurt, excepting Miss Nellie NJ.

She struck the back of her head on the

Yours very truly,

Most of our farmers finished haying last
week; the crop, though not so heavy as
last year, but good one, has been secur-
cd in fine order.
1t is worth far more than tho dried-uP,
la,e-cut, storm beaten hay of this section,
last year.
The corn crop. although backward, is
in good color, and grows finely since our
beautiful rain of last Sabbath, and with a
reasonable prospect of warm Septem'
Der and late frosts, our farmers are hope
full of an average crop.
The absence Of extremely warm wealth
or and excessive rains and long, warm
wet periods, so favorable to potatoes, has
had like beneficial effect on wheat,
which now gives abundant promise; the
growth of straw being very large andthe
heads well filed. We noticed last week
ssr eral fields OF wheat being cut.
Cider drinkers, it is to be hoped, will
be forced to adopt more temperate habits
for a year to come, as apples arc no
where.
Probably not more than half so many
sheep will he in town this fall, rs in the
fall of 1868, for many sheep died during
last winter and spring. and very few
lambs will be raised for market this fall
Since shearing. sheep have done exceed
ingly we'll; many Of them are fat enough
for market.
Our farmers are not so wide awake in
improving their stock rs they ought to be,
though they are ahead OF many localities.
Most of the neat stock in this section is a
cross between the Devon and the Durham.
Dow Scribner, boy about twelve years
of age, was drowned last Wednesday af-

of this town, was consumed by lire last
