EAST DORSET.
Sugaring has the grip.

boieol has u nice lltlie uOuDit Or
phan z months-old girl baby to spare,
Some couple whose voices have I'M
fortunately never been attuned to
cradle songs, whose home is not vocal
with the sweet prattle of infancy,
who have never experienced the quin-
tessence of pleasure in caring for such
an utterly helpless and dependent
little jewel of their own, should have
her. Everybody must have a pet
something for the hearts affections
to cling to and Misunderstanding TO
love. Here is one more sensible than
pug pups, rabbit kittens, bird seed
or hollyhocks. But she must have a
good home else we shall keep her till
she binds herself out. She was not
let loose on this planet where "Afric's
sunny fountains roll down their gold
EN- sands" or in that vicinity but she
should be the recipient of our active
benevolence just the same.
Ezra Dejordy while driving down
a steep on Monday took a plunge
from his logs into the vacant space
between the fore-end of his sled and
the horses heels and was run over
and considerably hurt.
On the same day agusty wind came
near yanking Louis Dufrane's mill
and lumber up from the earth and
making birds of them.
1t should have been told sooner
that MI. Andrew Gormley and Miss
Tuohey, daughter Of our late James
Tuohey were married February 23d.
G. N. Williams of Dorset has a
car side-tracked at our depot which
he will load with potatoes at 80 cents
per bushel as soon as the weather per-
mits.
Hon. Isaac Barrows and two of
his grandchildren, a son and daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. John Martin,
visited here last week. Mr.. Martin
formerly owned and operated the
Maltby mill property in Peru. Mr..
Barrows was for many years promi-
nent in our town affairs and repre-
sented US in the Legislature. He has
been of late a resident of Granville,
N. Y.
School house hall was warmed and
filled choke-full Saturday evening.
The attraction was school exhibition
which every one speaks well of.
In the same hall on Monday eve
ming there was held Union church
sociable.
Two gentlemen from near New
Haven. Conn, were lately here to
look over our high blooded and high
priced equine beauties. They made
visits or calls on Messrs. Moses
Sheldon and Nathaniel McWayne
and perhaps others in West Dorset
and on George M. Wall, John Leg
gett and Thomas Quigley here.
They expressed themselves as well
pleased. When they find prettier
colts than some they saw and some
that they didn't see they will have to
wander some little distance.
The selectmen of Dorset are wish
ing to find the right party to let our
town farm to on shares or for a cash
consideration. 1t is a large farm
buildings good and lots of them.
Some 100 acres in one meadow that
can be and always are moved with
machine. Stock and tools and every
thing out doors and in are inventoried
at about $4,000. Not thing that a
man wants except possibly another
horse but is there. There are now on
the farm in the line of stock 2 horses,
26 cows, 3 twO-year-olds and year
lings. There is cheese factory in
our village to which the milk is
brought and the cheese money last
year was S512 7-100. Some right
party will have the farm and posses
sion the first day of April. He will
make a good living and lay by some
stamps. He won't be skinned live
and raw. There is not single pau
per on the farm now but should there
be the town will pay fair price per
week for keeping the same.
