H. NJ. Bearce, esq, Of Norway lost
his valuable horse, last week. He drove
to Bethel and stabbed his horse while
there. After his return the animal died
of congestion. Singularly enough. Mr..
W. j. Wheeler, of South Paris, lost his
horse in precisely the same manner, at
the same time. The two animals were
stabbed together. Mr.. Bearce had own
ed his horse long time. and was great.
" attached to her. Mr.. Bearce is one
of the most enterprising and busiest men
in Oxford County. He is Treasurer Of
Norway Savings Bank, Postmaster OF
Norway. a practicing lawyer. a large
farm owner, and has charge of Norway
National Bank. during the absence OF
It's cashier. We believe in addition to
this he is one of the Directors of Norway
Branch Railroad, and is otherwise inter-
ested IN the manufacturing and business
enterprises of Norway. His commission
as Post Master has Just expired, and prob
ably he will decline disappointment
owing to his pressing business cares.
He has held the position for seventeen
years, to the entire satisfaction Of the
community. Mr.. Bearce and his broth
err have jus, purchased farm adjoining
the Bearce homestead in Hebron, and
propose to turn the whole of il out TO q
sheep farm. They have met with excel
lent success in sheep, and so propose to
increase the business. More men are
needed in Oxford County to lay out sur
plus funds, in taxable home industries
isn,ead of putting them into government
bonds. That is the way to make our
County grow and thrive.

APpLEs.-J. c. Marble & Co. have
purchased and shipped 5000 barrels Of
apples this season, paying from 81 to
%. Is per barrel for the same, thus leav-
ing over slO, 100000 clean cash in this
section for fruit. Mr.. Marble has dealt
extensively in apples for several yesn.
He says one great fault with our fruit is
in the packing. Farmers do not sort
them with sufficient care. Hebron farm
ers do sort their fruit. and buyers not
only strike for Hebron first, but they pay
from IS to soc. per barrel more for sp
ples from that town. Mr.. Marble thinks
Paris. Norway, Buckffld and other towns
could produce as good fruit, and get as
good prices if farmers would exercise as
much care in sorting and picking.
