The Republic has had no President or

General Harrison. He demonstrated great

astonished the country by his readiness
and tact in scores of short addresses. In
again surprised the people by a series OF
short speeches that were unprecedented
and altogether admirable. One Of the
best of his recent utterances was this, at
Clayton, last week: II do not doubt that

The Corn Pack of 1894.

A fair average crop of canned sweet
corn for Maine would be about 600, 900
cases, although it has fallen considera-
bly, short of this some years and exceed
ed it in Others Considering that the
acreage planted last year was deer eased
at least one-fourJh, probably much more,
and that many of the smaller packers
had, temporarily at least, gone out of
the business, it was thought a month
ago that the product would be about
375, 600 to 100000 cases, but the yield
per acre was enormous, under exception
ally favorable weather conditions.
While the average per acre is from 1900
to 1900 cases, in some districts of the
product owing to the complete filing out
OF every ear it amounted to 1000 cases,
which is unprecedented. Further, owing
to the shortage of cans and of tin to
make them, thousands of bushels were
tn rned back on the farmers, the packers
settling with them on the best posi- BILE
terms. AS an illustration, one large firm
paid out SIS, 600, and another $4,000, and
gave the corn to the farmers for fodder.
A fair estimate of the packing of 1894
would be about 500, 900 cases, and most
Of it very choice. Further, but very lit
tie old corn was left over, and the mar
ket starts in very coed shape.

FIRE PRECAUTIONS.
Some Good Arrangements Made in the De-
partment.


Profjting by the experience of the Beals
fire Chief Jackson has ordered cellar
pipe madesfor use in cellar fires like that
one. This.is metal pipe nine feet llong
with. three crooks in it one being three
feet long forEthe sidewalk one piece -four
feet long to drop down the area Ways
and another two feet long to stick out
in the cellar. Two handles are fitted
into the upper piece and the men using
it can stand.up outside away from the
fame and smoke and by means of the
handles work the stream, around back
and forth and thoroughly rake the entire
cellar. The pipe is the same size as the
hose and will carry any size nozzle.
The committee on fire department have
ordered deluge fire set which is intend
ed to come in handy in scrapes like the
Atkinson fire when it is necessary to put
a big solid stream into the heat OF. a
raging furnace This set consists of a
piece of 1-2 inch hose so feet with a
four-way Siamese coupling at one end to
take the ends of four single streams and
2 1-2 inch nozzle at the other to. deliver
the same. 1t amounts to the same
thing as. playing four engine streams
through an open buttrass as the nozzle is
of the same size. When a stream of that
size strikes a fire, even big one, some
thing has got to give.
