A gentleman of practical turn of mind
has secured sufficient ice for his family use
by filing barrels with water and exposing
them to be frozen. Brush or similar materi-
al was used to cover them against increased
temperature, and when the contents were
wanted it was only necessary to start few
hoops, when the solid lump could be thrown
out. He found that by having a stick OF
small pole set on the bottom in the centre OF
the cask, letting it reach several inches
above the top, he prevented any lateral

a Calf Catcher.

The TRANSCRIPT says that farmer who
had worn himself out trying to catch calf
and who lives just out of town, was puzzled
as to how he should get the animal in from
pasture before winter. why don't you gel
shat dog over in the next town? They say he
always catched EN-" said a friend. The
whereabouts of the dog was soon ascer-
talned, and In response to a request for his
services. hiI owner brought forth the famous
conqueror of refractory cows. An insignif-
cant dog, not much larger than good sized
cat, and of no particular breed. simply a dog
appeared. He didn't look very capable of
fulfilling the hopes of the owner of the calf,
but he was taken along and put ON to the
trail of the calf, at the edge of grove Of
trees. wherein the latter was accustomed to
defy pursuit. Soon the loud bellowings Of
The calf were heard, and following the sound
novel sight was presented. The calf was
not only caught, he was anchored. He was
rs immoyably fixed as the trees around him.
The little dog sat calmly on his launches,
with his teeth firmly fastened in the most
tender part of his captlve's nose, any move
ment OF which was attended with so much
pain that his calfship had concluded, after a
few trials, that ON the whole 1t was better to
remain quieScent.

At the Brownfeld factory there was also
packed 1900 cans Of cooked apple and 1900
gallons OF cider extracted from the waste
and sold to the, vinegar factory In New York,
and 1000 bushels of cider apples shipped to
Boston. +. +. Noyes has packed &C, 900 gallon
cans of apples and 100 tons pumpkin and
squash, Mr.. Collier 5000 cases of apples. 1t
Is thought that the apple pack in Maine has
brought $4,000 to $4,000 into the state.
This year, by reason of the failure of the ap-
pie crop In the State of New York, which
has always packed large quantity of these
goods, there has been considerable apple
| packing done in the State Of Maine. This
branch has been considerably neglected
here of late years, by reason of the low price
put upon their goods by New York packers
This year Maine apples started in at So. %
per dozen and reached the unusual figure of
1926 In gallon cans to the wholesale trade,
but of late we understand that the price has
dropped off somewhat, SO that buyers are
not readily found at these extreme prices,
and some of the Maine packers of apples
have now these goods on hand, which they
cannot sell at as high price as they could
have received a month ago, though even at
the present time they command price
which will pay for material and labor.

An Appeal.

As has been the custom for the past 10
years, Rev. S. F, Pearson of the Gospel Mis-.
sion. desires to make his annual Thanks
giving visits this year to some of our worthy
poor, and provide them with some of the
good things of the season. He is arranging
to give dinner to 200 adults and children
at Gospel Mission hall at o'clock Thanks
giving day, and to carry several dinners to
homes where sickness prevails which will
deprive those families from coming to the
dinner at the hall. A large corps of ladies
has volunteered its services to aid him in
making the occasion a joyous one to many
OF the unfortunate. And, as the Atkinson
turkeys are not the Gospel Missions yet.
Mr.: Pearson makes this appeal to a willing
and generous public to aid him, Donations
