A SPRINGFIELD man recently determ-
ined to sup with party of friends
against the will of his wife. He was re.
solved that he would, and she that he
should not so. He did not go. His
friends missed him, and just for a lark
invaded his residence, where they found
him and his wife sitting in their chairs,
fast asleep. He had given her an OPT
ate that he might slip away, and she had
given him one that he might not.

A DELIGHTFUL THouGHT.-When the
first love is over, there comes a better
still. There comes that other love, that
faithful friendship which never changes,
and which wilf accompany you with its
calm light through the whole of life. 1t
is only needful to place yourself so that
IT may come. and then it comes of itself.
And then every thing turns and changes
for the best.

To PUT on n pair of tight boots: Place
your boots near by You and lie down on
the floor; hold Your feet straight up in
the air until the blood runs out of them,
and then with all practical dispatch, pull
on the boots. This process diminishes
the size of the foot, and if the expert
ment be properly conducted, it will slip
into the boot as easy as man slides
into a gutter on a dark night.

State Board Of Agriculture.

hOuLTON, OcU 2, 1910.
In accordance with the usual custom the
members of the Board reported the condition
of the crops in their several localities, and
nearly all report the same state of affairs
Hay is in all sections abundant and of good
quality. Potatoes are an average crop, while
corn and grain hardly reach that standard.
Apples are very light, amounting probably
not to one fourth of good crop. There is a
new and widespread interest in cheese facto-
ries and iu packing establishments and gen.
eral tendency in that direction.
An article this morning from Mr.. j. w.
Lang of Waldo, DAIRY Interests was TO =
lowed by very interesting and animated dis
cussion on "Cheese Factories from the actual
builders aud managers and owners of these
labor-saving and money-making agencies.
The discussion elected the fact that a score
of cheese factories have been in successful
operation during the past season-Franklin
County leading with seven and the small
county of Waldo following with four This
being live subject and particularly in. this
county one upon which information is desired
by the farming public, caused it to be the most
earnest and interesting discussion of the ses-
sion thus far. Aroostook offers advantages for
associated dairying inferior to none in any part
of Maine, and we know of no department Of
agriculture, or in fact any business, that shows
better prospect of success.
The exercises of the afternoon were intro
duced by disquisition on Agricultural I'M
plements'' from Mr. d. M. Durham of Bangor
who is said to be dealer in that line his re-
marks however were historical, rather than of
an advertising character
In the absence of one of the lecturers, Mr.
L. Wethersll of the Boston Cultiuator who was
present as reporter, gave an off-hand address
based somewhat upon the statement that to-
oacco, milk and market gardening are the most
profitable branches of Massachusetts agricul-
ture.
MI. Wetherell advises farmers to find ont
hrst what their farms are best fitted for and
then by strict attention in that direction tbev
will be quite sure to make money. His con-
clusion seemed to be, that reckoning the money
employed, and the investment in labor and
anxiety, there is less return from farming, than

The recent baby show at the New Hamp-
shire State Fair will be apt to raise Mathu-
sian misgivings in the minds of those who
have carefully perused Cne accounts OF the
musings on exhibition and the prizes award
ed to them for coming into the world in
couples and triplets. Such prodigious dis
play Of matrimonial membranes will be
very apt to dull the keen edge Of the bachelor
appetite for connubial felicity, and directly
tends to increase the already full ranks of
the anxious and aimless. IF the last appre
hension be well founded the disciples of

restriction in the number of marriages is the
cardinal article of their simple creed.

But the avenger was at hand in the shape of

like the rescuer of romance, put in an appear

through the back. Then Peacock's son took
hand with his little pistol and sent young

proceedings deputy marshal arrived on the
ground just in time to get a shot in the chest.

left on the public mind will be a sense of de-
vout thankfulness that they are not citizens
