MAINE GOSSIP.

Many veterans of the Seventh Maine
still preserve as precious relics the musket,
knapsack, etc, which they carried through
their terms of service. The soldiers were
not allowed to carry the regulation rifles
home with them but this regiment was
equipped by Gov. Cony and therefore
owned its own tools of war and preserved
them to point at with pride at this late day.
The guns were of the Windsor make.
A farmer went shopping in an Orland

of meal, | pound of tea, | pound of coffee,
J pounds of sugar, / pound of soda / gal
lon of kerosene oil, bar soap, ! gallon
molasses. ouc-fourih pound tobacco, one
half gallon vinegar, package mixed spices,

not valuable for hay or for oats or for po-
tatoes. Just the field for pine or spruce or
maple. Our forests are worth caring for.
We ought to see that the annual growth is
equal To the annual consumption.
