The Maine Winter.

We have reason to feel proud of our
Maine winter. \ comparison with the
weather experienced in sections which
claim to be more highly favored, climat-
ically, convinces us that sit is better to
bear the ills we have than to fly to others
we know not Of" Oranges have not
frozen upon the trees here, as in Florida,
nor are we called upon to mourn the nip
ping of peach trees, and a prospective
short crop of that fruit, as in Jersey, Del
aware and Maryland. Our live stock has
not persisted with the cold as in the
Western States. Our ice crop was har-
vested in good condition, and the raw
ages of the potato bug have been stayed.
We have had many consecutive weeks of
sleighng, which enabled the farmers to
market their produce and to haul out
their years supply of fire wood. The
season has also been an unusually favor
able one for the lumbermen. There has
been but one day in the whole winter
when travel was interrupted on the rail
roads, and our storms have been insig-
niticant compared to those which have
ragged in some of the other New England
States, in the West and even in the South.
\ blizzard is something our citizens
have no knowledge of until they follow
Horace Greeley's advice and 90 West
The Minneapolis Tribune tells of the adj
ventures of a party who recently made
journey in Minnesota, and were snow
bound in trains and sleighs, half starved
and nearly frozen. On one day ''the
travellers encountered terrible blizzard,
and for IN hour or more life hung 10y a
slender thread. For four days and
nights the party were 'tighting the ele-
ments for existence" "In many places,
continues the Tribune. 1.-The travellers
marched over drifts fully twenty feet
high, and kept their balance by cineing
to the telegraph wires. Again the snow
crust was 50 light as to let the pedestri-
ans through, when locomotion was next
to impossibe-especialy with feet en-
cased in stout, heavy flour sacks bound
about the pedals for protection from cold
and i'll place OF snow shoes"
Such storms, OF almost weekly occur
renee in the West, have been unknown
here. Even our coast, rugged and rock
bound and inhospitable looking rs it may
be, has not been visited by gales such as
have strewn the shores of Long Island
Sound and the coast of New Jersey with
wrecks: nor have our sea ports been OBJ
structed 10y ice as have those far South Of
lis. While Long Island Sound was closed
to navigation, Penobscot bay and our
own port were open to steam and sailing
craft so we may we'll feel satisfied with
our Northern homes and with the winter
Just passed. The season has not only
been favorable one for business. but en-
sures Il prosperous spring and summer
The ground having been covered With
snow all winter has protected vegetation
and this will ensure an early spring. IN
increased amount of timber has been cut,
which will keep our mills and factories
busy during the coming months. Look
ing back with satisfaction we can look
forward with hope. Winter has used us
kindly and the future is full promise.
