The State of Maine is a good place with
which to experiment on prohibition, but it
is'not a good place to farm in very largely.
In the first place, the season is generally
reluctant. When | WAS up near Moosehead
Lake short time ago, people were driving
across that body of water on the ice with
perfect impunity. That is one thing that
interferes with the farming interest in
Maine. If young man is sleigh riding
every night till midnight, he don't feel lie
hoeing corn the following morning. Any
man who has ever had his feet frostbitten
while bugging potatoes, will agree with me
that it takes away the charm of pastoral
pursuits. 1t is this desire to amalgamate
dog days and Santa Claus that has injured
Maine rs an agricultural hot-bed.
Another reason that might be assigned
for refraining from agricultural pursuits in
Maine is that the agitator of the soil finds
when it is too late, that soil itself, which is
essential to the propagation of crops, has
not been in use in Maine for years. While
all over the State there is O. magnificent
stone foundation ON which farm might
safely rest, the superstructure, or farm prop
er, has not been secured.
If had known when l passed through
Minnesota and Illinois what soil famine
there was in Maine, would have brought
some with me.
The stone crop this year in Maine will be
very great. If they do not crack open dur
ing dry weather there will be a great many.
The stone-bruise is also looking unusually
we'll for this season of the year, and chill
blains were in full bloom when l was there.
In the neighborhood of Pittsfeld the coun-
try seems to run largely to cold water and
chattel mortgages. Some think that rum
has always kept Maine back, but | claim
that it has been wet feet. In another Sab
bath morning talk l will refer to the mat
ter OF rum in Maine more fully.
The agricultural resources of Pittsfield
and vicinity are great, the principle eX-
ports being spruce gum and Christmas
trees. They were not yet in bloom when l
visited the State, so it was too early to
gather popcorn balls and Christmas pres
ents.
Here, near Pittsfeld is the birthplace of
the only original wormless dried apple pie
with which we generally insult our gastric
economy when we lunch along the railroad.
These pies, when properly kiln-dried and
rivetted, with German silver monogram on
top, if fitted with Yale time lock, make
the best fire and burglar-proof wormless
pies of commerce. They take the place of
civil war and as a promoter of intestine
strife they have no equal.
The farms in Maine are fenced in with
stone walls. ! do not know why this is

Eczema 4!

For the benefit of suffering humanity, and in
heartfelt gratitude at the wonderful results,
deem it only my duty to give this unsollclted
testimony in favor Of Switts Specific. My wife
has been afflicted with hereditary Eczema or
salt Rhelim from her infancy; it has increased
in intensity with each succeeding spring, ana
being somewhat skilled in medicine myself l
tried every remedy could think OF for years
Sarsaparilla combined with every form of Po-
tassie, "Cuticura," pills of every kind, and hun
dreds of other remedies, lotions and alkall wash
es of every known kind, but they all gave only
temporary relief. During the spring of 1854 her
lower extremities became so intlamed and sore
that she was obliged to keep them constantly
coated with covering of "Fulers Earth,
mixed wet and allowed to dry on. Among 9TH
er things she was afflicted with periodical ner-
vous headache, occurring regularly every seven
days, sometimes followed by intermittent fever
for weeks at time, so that her life became
burden to her.
This Spring determined she should take S.
S. S. and follow strictly the directions in regard
to DOSE diet etc. This was about seven weeks
ago. After taking the first large bottle the dis
ease seemed to increase; the burning, itching and
inflammation became unbearable. She hOwev-
er, persevered in the use of the medicine. After
taking the second bottle the Inflammation began
to subside After taking the third bottle the in
tlammaton Disappeared and sore spots dried up
and turned white and scaly, and finally she brush
ed them off in an impalpable white powder re-
sembling pure salt She is now taking the sixth
bottle, three tablespoonful four times daily Ev-
cry appearance of the disease has gone, and her
flesh is becoming soft, white and smooth again
and what is more, her periodical headaches have
Disappeared and she is now at 50 years Of age,
enjoying the only good health she has known for
upwards Of forty years. No wonder she declares
with emphasis that every bottle of S. S. S. is
worth thousaad times its weight in gold
Any further information in regard to her case
will be cheerfully given by herself at her resi-
dedce, 135 Mullett Street, or by me.

done for I did not see anything on these
farms that any one would naturally yearn
to carry away with him.
saw some sheep in one Of these enclos-
ures. Their steel-pointed bills were lying
on the wall near them, and they were rest
ing their jaws in the crisp frosty morning
air. In another enclosure farmer was
planting clover seed with hypodermic
syringe, and covering it with a mustard
plaster. He said that last year his clover
was complete failure because his mustard
plasters were no good. He had tried to
save money by using secondhand mustard
plasters, and of course the clover seed, mis-
sing the warm stimulus, neglected to rally,
and the crop was failure.
Here may be noticed the canvas-back
moose and strong antipathy to good rum.
do not wonder that the people of Maine
are hostile to rum-if they judge all rum by
Maine rum. The moose is one of the most
gamey of the finny tribe. He is caught in
the fall of the year with double-barrel
shotgun and pair of snow shoes. He does
not bite unless irritated, but little boys
should not 60 near the female moose while
she is on her nest. The masculine moose
wears hair lip and a hat rack on his head.
Near Pea Cove saw strange sight. A
farmer was rowing around over his cram
berry orchard in skiff. I stood up on the
stone wall and watched him for some time,
because am greatly interested in farming
and dearly love to watch any one else who
may be engaged in manual labor. 1t was
long time before I could make out what
he was doing. At last, however, figured
it out, and l was very much surprised, in
deed, for had never seen horticulture car
ried to that extent, and as Mr.. Sayward
would remark, 81 thought he was carrying
that thing too far" ..--.-.-.--. --
Many will doubt my word, and would
not have believed it myself if any one else
