of brisrs ard weed, which they soon destroyed,
then he fed them on bran and meal In the

old briar patch with corn and harvested fine
All bis spare time was devoted to caring FIR
the sheep. The next spring he had more lambs.
He was able to plant more corn. Then came
mere lambs, when he sowed clover and grew
turnips; and now, to- day, as result of such
small beginning, he has several hundred fine crop
sheep free from disease, bringing him 1000

fertile, and he is a rich man. We know that

tract price for constructing the whole line
between Ellsworth and Deer Isle = distance
