first nlace Mr.. Senate, who recently suicided
at the Augusta almshouse, left home un-
known to his wife and children and went on
his own free will to Portland and Saco, where
he had formerly lived, and there found his
only brother corpse. This unfortunate cir
cumstance appears TO have affected his mind
and he wandered about three weeks or more,
and finally came to the Augusta amshouse,
where he turned all his money over, which
was in the neighborhood of 800, to Mr.. Tur :
ner thus showing that he was not in his right
mind. One of his sons offered him home
Mr.. Senate had never been town charge at
Richmond had been successful In business
there for over two years; had always paid his
bills. Neither Richmond nor Augusta ever
contributed one cent TO bis support not even

to pay all expenses"

But remembering that she was the

But, as Dolly went into the house,
she stood and looked longingly at the

HOME. FARM AND GARDEN.

President Barry, of the Western
New York Horticultural Society, says
the cultivation of the ground in pear
orchards must be confined to near the
surface, and without much depth.
A Tonawanda man used one quart
of sawdust to each hill of potatoes in
one plot and none in another The
sawdust hills yielded nearly twice as
much as the others, and the potatoes
were larger and smoother. ~ J.

Rotation in the garden is as neces-
.sary as in the field. Different kinds OF
vegetables require different kinds of

it is in every way desirable to reverse
the order of planting every year. Bet
