minded of the polygamist who had two
wives, one old and one young. He had also
both gray and black hairs in his head. The
young wife, not wanting him to look old,
pulled out the gray hairs, and the old wife,
not wanting him to look young, pulled out
the black hairs. So he became bald "If

To the Farmers Of Waldo Co.

The time is near at hand when the new
crop of hay will be ready for market, and it
is essentially necessary that the same should
be pressed in such manner as to command
the highest market price. This can best be
accomplished by using a Dedrick Coum
bian Press, three of which are now ready to
start in the vicinity of Belfast. Hay Put up
by these presses is sought for and acknowl-
edged by all dealers to bring higher prices
than the same quality of hay put up by other
presses. From twelve to thirteen tons of
Dedrick pressed hay can be loaded in
common box car at a saving in freight of 30
per cent to the shippers and 20 per cent.
more hay can be pressed in given time
than with the old style presses.
These presses are being introduced and
considerable expense by the owners and we
ask the farmers of Belfast and vicinity to
cooperate with us in this matter and make
the standard of Waldo county hay equal in
preparation to that of any section of the
country from which hay is shipped.
The Dedrick presses will be managed by
Freeman Ellis & Sons, South Brooks Her
bert Hamlin, South Brooks, and Charles
Barnes of Waldo. Communications to any
of the above parties will receive prompt at
uention.
