The Ohio state board of agriculture says
''the wheat outlook in Ohio is the most gloomy
for eight years. Severe cold with bare ground,
killed the tops to the surface in January and
February. Warm rains and good weather till
May may improve condition up to GO per
cent bad weather will send it below 80 per
cent. Our total wheat crop in 1889 was, in
round numbers, -, 900, 600 bushels; this year s
yield will probably be about %, 800, 600 bush
els. The amount of wheat now in the hands
Of producers in this state is about II, OOO, 900
bushels, and of corn p, 900, 600 bushels" In
West Virginia the plant has been injured to
about the same extent as in Ohio. From In
diana, Illinois and Kentucky we have more
favorable than unfavorable reports, but the
damage is great in many of the best wheat
sections Of the great wheat belt Of the West.
In Virginia considerable damage is reported,
also in Pennsylvania and Western New York
but ten days later we shall be able to give an
approximate estimate of the injury done.

Our citizens were sadly surprised and a
shade Of gloom was thrown over our village
early on Sunday morning, the 10Th inst, by
the announcement Of the very sudden death
of Almon Harris He had been troubled
with an affection Of the heart but had at.
tended to ordinary business laboring the day
previous and retiring at night apparently in
usual health, quietly resting. At about FIVE
o'clock the next morning, without q struggle
aud apparently unconscious, he passed from
the peaceful slumbers of the night to the
deeper repose Of the dead. Mr.. Harris was
q former resident of Charlemont, Mass, but
for several years had resided in this place,
and was man much respected, an indus
trious, upright and peacesble citizen, setting
in many respects an example worthy of imi-
tation T..

More about the Bridgton n saco River
IA m, In Maine.


n. n. In Maine,
In reply to a letter from Jacksonvile we
give additional information in regard to the
new two-foot gauge railroad recently built in
Maine from Bridgton to Hiram, on the Port
land a Ogdensburg railroad. Tho length Of
road is about Is miles. Tho stock is $780,
600 and the amount Of bonds $50, 600, max
ing total Of $4,000 All the bonds sold
at par before a rail was laid. Tho little
Sandy River road in the same state cost
about SO, 600 per mile in building, and dur
ing the first year GS79) Of its existence, the
running expenses did not exceed $50 per day.
The bonds are now held at $40 The
Bridgton road cost about 81, 900 per mile and
all its equipments are first class. It has thir-
ty-pound steel rails Maine is building no
other kind Of railroads for feeders to main
lines. In that state money can be easily
raised for the building of two-foot gauge
roads, while il cannot be raised for the build
ing of threefoot gauge. IL will be remem-
bered that the money for the Brattleboro a
Whitehall railroad was raised to build two
foot gauge and then the plan was changed to
three.foot. The cost of building this road
was SlOS, 600 or more than 81 600 per mile,
and yet the Bridgton & Saco River railroad,
at cost of only 80, 900 per mile, far exceeds
the Brattloboro & Whitehall road We wrote
one year ago that it would be difficult to
raise $500, 600 for the building of the Brat
tleboro and Wilmington railroad, and by the
way some towns have recently voted it would
seem to be true Calling it twenty miles
from Brattleboro to Wilmington, $50, 600
will build a first class railroad capable of do
ing all the business required. II we are
rightly posted, money enough is now voted
and subscribed to build two-foot gauge road
from Brattleboro TO Wilmington. Writing
or talking about the Bridgton railroad will
give only a faint idea of what the road il.
Seeing is believing talk is cheap. The on
ly practical way of doing the business cor
rectly is to have the parties most interested
send one or more persons to visit the new
road at Bridgton, Maine.
