the curds of skinned and unskimmed

of urskimmed milk and the article is
improved by the addition OF mixing

half milk and half cream. The law

HallowelI May Have a Polo Team.

Sporting HalloWell is interested in
POLO and already, although Augusta is
in its polo infancy there are many
patrons who attend the Maine League
games from this city, and appear to
appreciate the efforts of the manage
ment in securing good team for the
Capital City.
There are a few good reasons why
Hallowell should he interested in the
wildly exciting game. In the winter OF
1883. Granite City Polo club was or
sanizet. and franchise from the
Maine League secured by local inter-
ested parties. Postmaster +. II. Leigh

and Weeks. substitutes.
In the league We're Portland. Rock

Halloweil We're in for the champion
ship, and it was nip and tuck as TO
" hich should carry oil the maj nonof.
The last game which decided the fate
of the Granite Citys, was played in the
Aemeda. Bath and that large editice
was taxed to its utmost capacity in
providing for the large attendance.
Bath won the game, and landed the
championship, but it was no fault of
Hallowell. They were in the game
from start to finish. bat luck was
against them and they lost.
An interested devotee of the sport
stated to the journal that it would be
possible to collect a team in this city
that would do full justice to past repu-
tatiCn. and that it was not improbable
that such move would be made. The
original Granite City team could be
brought together, with one exception
