A Promise Fulfilled.

y little more than a year ago we published in
these columns a notice Of the discovery of Sher-
idan'> Condition Powder to make hens lay. In
making that announcement we relied wholly
upon the character and reputation of the manu-
facturers. To our own mind at that time, the
idea of making hens lay the year round by arti-
neral or any other means, seemed absurd, but
we have since learned that it can pc done. The
notice alluded to above attracted universal at
tention, and thousands of people, while not be-
believing that Shcrdan's Powder could accom-
plish all that was claimed for it, thought it was
at least worth trial. The trial was made dur
ing December, January and February. No
other months could have been selected which
would have given the Powder so severe test,
for everybody who keeps hens knows that they
will not lay during these months except in rare
Cases But the result of this trial was most
satisfactory and conclusive Hundreds of those
who made the trial received from Is to "a eggs
per hen per month, while many got one egg
day from each hen. The price OF eggs during
December January and February last, averaged
80 to 81 cents per dozen. Thus it will be seen
that very few hens each laying an egg day
would support small family |. S Johnson &

Skowhegan-Monson r. r.

The opinion seems to prevail that
energetic effort will be made on the
part of towns along the proposed line,
from Monson and Pittsfield, to secure the
extension of the S & NJ. road now near
~ completed to Ilartland. 1t may be
that Skowhegan has "snncd away the
day of grace" but she has the means to
secure the road If her people will take
hold of it in earnest.
The proposition made by Mr.. Mitchell,
last winter was very favorable one for
Skowhegan, and If we get II road now,
VIII hyae to put in double the money that
was called for then. Skowhegan could
better afford to put $50, 900 or 100000 in
TIA road from here to Mooschead Lake,
than to have it go from Hartland.
The following is clipped from the Mon

hold that the strength of the order comes
