a Light Wool Gin.

MARYsvILLE, April 5.-The spring wool
clip in this district is expected to be light
and exceptionally poor in quality. No
spring wool has yet reached the market
here and the demand is not likely to be
great The outlook for grain is improving
somewhat as the season advances. Some
exceptionally large yields on summer fallow
are indicated by the present condition of
the crops, but as the acreage sown is COM
paratively small the total output will be
much below the average.

Interesting Facts for Ice Men

| A prominent Maine ice man has in his
corning the open winters and the close win
tiers for q long series of years. He has q
table of dates from 1885 to the present time
showing the time Of closing and opening Of
the Kennebec. The earliest date on which
the river ever froze is November l6 On
three years ice formed thus early, in 1908,
during the month of November, averag-
ing about the goth. On nine years it did
not freeze up to stay frozen until the first
half of January, although short nips took
place earlier, succeeded by = warm spell
that carried the ice out again. In ls3O-3l
the river did not close to stay closed until
the llth Of January. The ice went out
again on the 80 of March, SO that the season
during which the river was closed for YES
sells was rs days in length. This is the
shortest season on record with the exception
of that of 1866 when the the ice formed
on the End of January and went out on
March Is. The season of 1870 II was s.
days long. The general run of seasons has
been from SO to l42 days.
The Penobscot river has, since 1918, al
ways frozen over in November or Decem-
Der, with the exception of ls30-3l, when it
did not close until the 9th of January The
earliest date is Nov. II, in 1871. and in
1885 SO, 1869 and 1878 the date was
November 81. These dates are not intend
ed to give accounts of short nips, when the
river would be frozen over for day or two
and then thawed again, or for times like
the present when portions only are frozen,
but of actual ice from the Augusta dam
clear down to Bath.
The present year it will be seen is the
most open for the Kennebec with one ex-
ception, the river now being open to Gardi-
ner. although from the Sd to the 9th of
December, and again from the 18th to the
2lst it was frozen over further down.
The state of the river is not such as to
cause serious alarm amongst ice dealers as
taking the record of the past as q standard,
good ice car be expected until well along
into April. On one year the ice did not 60
out to stay until the 9th of May.
