Rollins of Portland, and others were
among the speakers. The discussion
was informal in character. The commit
tee will give another hearing on the mat
ter next Tuesday.
The Reform School.
The committee on reform school
heard again this afternoon the question
of religious instruction there which
comes up this year in the shape of bill
designed to permit the conducting of the
services of all churches in all institutions
and jails. Hon. B. F. Chadbourne adj
vocated the measure and Hon. Albion
Little and Assistant Superintendent
Wentworth of the reform school spoke
against it. Mr.. Little pointed out that
the bill was really the old controversy as
to administering rites of Catholic
churches in the institutions.
/, The Fishery Hearing.
Portland people were here in force to-
day to attend the hearing before the
shore fisheries committee on the law re-
lating to migratory fish. Hon. 0. D.
Baker conducted the case for those who
favored the proposed general law on the
subject and who opposed the three-mile
limit asked for by many petitioners. W.
S. Jordan, w. f. Milliken, John A. En-
cry, Inspector Fernald and M. S. Stick
ney of Portland, told Of that city's inter
est in the fishery and opposed the three
mile law. Mr.. Millikeli presented the
petition of many business men asking
mife limit. He gave figures as to the
amount invested in the fishing business
substantially as printed in today's PRESS
Concerning mackerel, Mr.. Emery said
he thought that the disappearance of the
fish at times was due to their quest of
food and not to their destruction by
seiners. He did not think the use of
scines endangered the fish supply and
spoke of marked fluctuations in the
amount of yearly catch before the d US
of seines. Mr.. Emery spoke of the dis
regard of our laws by seiners from other
states who could not be easily detected,
who, for fear of the law, traded in mar
kets outside the State instead of bring
ing their fares to Maine ports. Mr..
Greedy Spring of the Portland Bone Co..
said Menhaden were the fish most used
in his business. He favored the pro-
posed law. Fertilizers made by his COM
pany are used by Maine farmers. They
ammonia instead of Menhaden.
Ex-representative Skofield of Harps-
well favored the law, providing it per-
mitted smelt fishing with seines in Casco
Bay. M. B. Spinney conducted the case
for the other side and will put in evil
dence today.
The York County Workshop.
The York County people had a lively
hearing tonight. Those who favored
the work Jail at Biddeford said prison
ers lived in idleness and grew fat at
Alfred. In fact they wanted to go there.
If they were set to breaking stone at
Biddeford it would save the county
| much money. On the other hand it was
represented that Biddeford wanted to
get broken stone to mscadamise its
streets. The York delegation which has
the matter in charge is opposed to the
| scheme.
Other Matters.
| The bill to abolish the school district
system was passed to be engrossed.
Mr.. Hersey's order relating to deposi.
tors voting for savings bank trustees was
adversely reported.

Dairy and Creamery Notes.

One of the main planks of good dairy
ing is to keep all Of the poor cows rooted
out as you would weeds from row of
beets in the garden.
The next plank that lies right side of
it is to have good young cows Of your
own raising to fill into the thinned ranks.
The COWS that you pluck out either
through age or natural defect, if healthy,
can be turned into beef. You won't get
as much out of them by this measure as
is the worth of the new and vigorous
stock you put in their places, but you
will obtain something, whereas if you
kept the old material it would be daily
loss to you.
The prevalence of winter dairying has
changed the subject of breeding a good
deal. for now we have cows coming in
new milk in the fall as well as in the
spring. The question arises with many,
Scan raise the resulting fall calves, if
need be, with profit to myself an
swer, Eyes, if you have stable COM
Portable enough and surroundings ade-
uuate to make winter dairying sue
cess" You wouldn't be into the bust
ness probably unless you were so fixed
for warm surroundings, and so with
good food the calves will flourish now
as well as in the spring.
The advantages of the creamery over
the private dairy are In having room
especially prepared and devoted to dairy
uses, the best appliances for handling
the milk and skilled labor for doing the
work in all of it's branches. The private
dairy which can provide all Of this ought
to make better butter or cheese than the
creamery, because it need not have to
carry the load of the milk of poor cows,
fed upon poor food and milked by care
less men, which sometimes gets into the
creamery, and cannot help but injure
the quality of the whole product, though
the better class Of patrons send enough
good, clean milk to counterfeit the effects
of 1t to some extent.
When dairymen wake up to the fact
that it is quite as easy at a well managed
creamery to make good butter in the
winter as in the summer we probably
shall find most of the creameries run
ming all the year and there will not be
such a rise and fall in butter prices as
we now have each season. Farmers will
have their cows come fresh in milk at
various seasons, and feed to keep up the
milk supply more months in the year,
instead Of allowing the cows to go dry

GO TO THE DAIRY CONVENTION.

Men Who Simply Stay on Earth and Take
Up Room.
We can find thousands of dairy farmers
in the land who have scarcely learned q
thing in thirty years. They have never
spent dollar in that time to learn any
thing about a business that requires the
sharpest kind Of wits to get the best
profit out of it.
These men in reality are not hungry
for knowledge. They are simply stay
ing on earth for a few years without a
good healthy appetite for Elemental food
they need. They have no idea that there
is much if any brains needed to feed
and milk q COW. They have never in
vested any brains in the question, and
their actions show that they can't see
that they are needed.
We have seen hundreds of instances
where such men would be coaxed into a
dairy convention from the street corner,
and it would end in their telling us that
they were astonished to see how much
interest and how many good, valuable
ideas they got out Of the meeting. The
great drawback to dairy progress and
the profit that farmers ought to make
out Of the business has been just this low
down estimate 80 many have put on the
exercise Of their own brains. There is a
lot in it, and individuals and communi-
ties will fail of what they ought to get
just as long as they maintain such an es-
innate. Don't begrudge the few dollars
expense necessary to attend your state
dairy convention. Make special effort
to secure little extra help to look after
the cows and the milk while you are
gone.
There is hardly farmer in the land
but what could find a chance to go to
California for two weeks if he knew he
had fallen heir to $1,000 and the jour
ney was necessary to get it. Yet he
must remember that we are heirs to the
effects of our own mind on our business.
Good ideas must always underlie sound
action. There is no escape from this
fact, and no man needs the company
Of good ideas as much as the farmer who
is handling herd Of cows. A bad no
ton, erroneous judgments, stupidity in
place Of intelligence, always punish the
dairyman that keeps company with them.
A good dairy convention, where is gath
cred the brightest men in the business,
will prove a grand cure for these bad
things
There is great need Of an old fash
toned revival among the dairy farmers
of the land. So many are going wrong,
working themselves and their wives and
children like slaves, and wasting large
portion of that hard work because they
will not see that their thought, judg-
ment-in a word, their brains-need
stimulating and quickening to better per-
ception Of what is the best dairy truth.
Turn out, good friends, and attend
every dairy convention and farm insti-
tute you possibly can. Take the good
wife along too. Heaven bless her, she
needs it as much as any one.-Hoard's
Dairyman.

Do MOI Let Disease Find sineoure

Away back, in the good old days of
our grandmothers, when the system
needed cleansing, and the blood en-
riching, and the physical organization
toning up, it was our grandmother's
habit to dose US with sulphur and
molasses," -" tincture of rhubarb, !" ''salts
and sena," ''extract of dandelion," and
"herb tea.'
These proved good remedies so far as
they went, and doubtless prevented
many serious sickness.
But science has improved upon all
this.
Other times, other men, other days,
other remedies. The world advances.
1t does not go back.
Medical science goes forward too,

tell the tale in boils, pimples, car

the color of an old lemon.
Then you are in condition to be sine

The Grand Trunk Tax.

IR6 NfTAnu 1Funk lax.
One of the matters which came before
the Judiciary committee to-day was that
of the Grand Trunks taxes. The
Grand Trunk, it will be remembered,
went to law to test the constitutionality
of the tax on railroads imposed in this
State. Judge Webb found for the rail-
road but the United States Supreme
Court over ruled this decision sustaining
the legal right Of the State to impose the
tax. The mandate of the Supreme
Court said nothing about interest and
new litigation has been begun to settle
that point. A. A. Strout, ESQ.,, who ap-
peared before the committee in behalf
of the Grand Trunk advocated passage of
the bill which has been introduced to
permit reference of matter to three JUS
tees of the Maine Supreme Court or if
the Attorney General does not care to
Governor and Council to act. Mr.. Strout
spoke of the Grand Trunk lease of the
Atlantic g St. Lawrence and the obli-
cations it had then taken and since
carefully fulfilled. He spoke of the
finances of ithe road, claiming
that it was not wealthy
corporation SO far as returns from bus
mess were concerned. He told of it's
disadvantages in competition with south
ern tourist lines and efforts that had
been made to iniure it in it's business.
Mr.. Strout deprecated the prejudice
which had been aroused against the
Grand Trunk by the accusation that it
was corporation composed of foreign
earls and princes. He said that the road
which had done SO much for Portland
was entitled to generous treatment. All
that it wanted was a chance to make a
fair settlement of the question now in
dispute, including the matter of penalty
of 10 per cent provided by law for corpor-
ations which are delinquent tax
payers. The Grand Trunk thought that
it should not be made to suffer this PEN
atty, as delay in paying taxes had been
caused by legal proceedings. Arrange
ments were now being made to pay the
tax for 1892.
Hon. Charles f. Libby spoke briefly
in support of the bill.
The Conspiracy Act.
There was an interesting hearing this
afternoon before the labor committee
when the SO called conspiracy act was
pretty roughly hauled over the Goals by
the gentlemen who spoke in favor of it's
repeal. There were large number of
members of labor organizations present.
Among the speakers were George W.
st. John, who represented the typo
graphical union, F. III. Hatch, C. F.
Stubs and W. J: Healy Of Portland. Its
understood that the committee will re-
port favorably.
The Union Label
Another labor matter to be favorably
reported is the act for the protection Of
the labels adopted by various unions to
designate goods made by union labor.
The legal affairs committee will report
the bill, with some few changes in the
matter of penalties.
Co-Insurance.
The insurance committee had
another innings this afternoon
in that seemingly interminable hearing
on the bill aimed at the co-insurance
plan. About four hours were devoted to
the side of the insurance men, who were
represented by Attorney General Little

lions, stipulations. or agreements con-

cident Insurance company or contained
in any policy issued by any such COM
pany or in any way made by any such
Company limiting the time within which
notice of the accident or injury or death
shall be given to such company to a
period of less than go days after the hap
pening of the accident or injury or death
shall be valid. Said notice may be given
to the company insuring at any time
within 80 days after the happening of
the accident or injury or death, and shall

TayIor's Evening Performance.

Saturday was surely Taylor's day in
Creston. In the evening the tents OF
Creston's Snowman was crowded to their
utmost capacity, as they were in the af-
ternoon, and before half those who ap-
peared at the ticket wagon had been
supplied the sale of tickets had to be
discontinued so great was the jam inside
the tents. The people took the situation
good naturally, however, and after every
seat had become occupied hay was spread
npon the ground around the ring, and
men, women and children sat down on
it and ''let their feet hang down." with
out a murmu".
The performance was excellent and
gave perfect satisfaction to everyone.

Irrigation has reclaimed $685.
381 acres Of arid land at a cost of
$26,611,O00 and given it a value Of
$84, 600. There are estimated
to be $40, 900, 900 acres Of arid and
worthless land in the country cap
able Of reclamation by irrigation.
The value Of irrigated land ranges
from $31 in Wyoming to $3.50
per acre in California. The an
nual value Of the irrigated product
varies from $8.25 in Wyoming to
$40 in California. The average
first cost Of bringing water to the
arid land is S8.25, and the subse-
quent cost is $1.07 a year, the
water right thus created being
valued at $26 per acre. As less
than one per cent Of the reclaima-
BILE land has thus far received wa
ter, it is apparent that irrigation
in this country has a large future.

TALL oaks from little acorns
grow. A man who wanted to bor-
row some money Of the Nebraska
Savings bank, it is rumored, was
refused the loan. To get even for
his disappointment he went to a
school ma'am Of his acquaintance
and told her that the bank was
about to fail, that it couldn't loan
ten cents to save it's soul, and that
if she wanted to protect her limo
cent school children who were de-
positors, she should tell 'em to with
draw their deposits at once. The
school ma'am became greatly ex-
cited over the disclosure and the
next day public announced in her
school room that the scholars who
were depositors in the bank must
get their money out right away or
they would lose it. Then came the
run, a little one at first, but spread
ing and gathering strength until 0
street was hardly wide enough to
hold the clamoring depositors. The
