friend, you will find in life that those

like snarling ours, continually saying
mean things of you; they are too lazy
TO acquire fame or fortune. They are
jealous. In many instances those who
slander you are in debt to you, if not
in the money sense, they are under OBJ
legation to you for some kindness shown
to them. Treat those people as they
deserve"

The football season opened yesterday, and
from now on until Christmas the cry will be
cline up" all through our athletic organiza-
tions. The first game was properly opened by
the new Columbia Athletic Club team, and
from reports published of their practice it was
believed there was a strong desire on the part
of the large membership to see them play. If
this desire was uppermost it did not material
ize yesterday, as less than one hundred and
fifty people were on Analostan Island to see the
contest. The team deserved better treatment
from their clubmates, as they showed that they
were football players of good shape, and in a
few more games will get down to team work
and show champion form. Their opponents
yesterday were the clever team from Haverford
College Pennsylvania, a club that has won
honors on many field. 1t was an almost per-
feet day for football playing. A slight wind
at times interfered with good goal kicking, but
outside of this the weather was all that could
be desired. The field was in fine shape the
grass being just high enough to deaden some of
the severe wrestling and tackling that ensued
during the contest

Improving an Old Farm.

The JOURNALS special correspondent
sends the following account Of the
Improvement Of an old kennebec farm,
the details Of which embody good les
sou for others to follow:
| The work done upon the place once
known AS the Widow Lane farm In Fay
cite, now owned by Mr.. Alvin Record OF
Livermore Falls, Is specimen Of prac-
teal and profitable farming. When he
bought Ii some years ago the tillage con-
sisted OF run out fields producing about
one-half ton OF hay per acre. Mr..
Record has dressed the land with stable
manure and phosphates until the yield
upon much OF 1t Is at the rate Of two or
three tons Of hay per acre. There were
few old apple trees on the place, the
remains OF former orchard, and quite a
number Of young native trees that had
sprung up spontaneously In the
fields. These latter have been
grated with Baldwins and now yield
many barrels Of nice fruit each year.
There are also on the place upward Of a
thousand young grated apple trees, set
few years ago, some OF which are
falready coming into bearing. These
trees have received as good care and are
in as good condition n as any young
orchard In the town OF Fayette. No
grass is allowed to grow within foot
or more Of the collar Of each tree, thus
giving q good chance to get at them and
destroy insects. They are kept clear Of
borers each season, the Larvae being dug
out and killed when fifst Matched. These
trees are mulehed and MANFRED every
year, and the clean bark and thrifty
growth show the results. Several trees
were ruined by mice one winter, since
then they have been protected from the
ravages of these rodents by splints, birch
bark, tarred paper or wire netting. Top
dressing aud broadcast manuring have
had their legitimate effect, and the
yellow loan OF this rocky ridge produced
last year $500 worth of hay and 500
worth of fruit. II Is said that whoever
causes two blades Of grass to grow
where but one grew before has well full
filed his mission. and judged by this
criterion, Mr.. Record may well be con-
sidered q public henefactor. Although
business man and manufacturer he has
given the old Fayette farmers some
points in agriculture which it stands
them In hand to make note of and to
profit by. The value of the forage crop
from this farm has been greatly in
creased. and there is a prospect of an
abundant yield of fruit in the near
future.
