S. w. Hunt. of Topsfield, raised last
year 1872 bushels of oats from a sowing
of ID bushels and three pecks of seed.
Silos are increasing in numbers in Fay
wonderful acquisition especially in years
of short hay crop like the present one.
e. 3. York of North Waterford. raised
almost $500 worth of sweet corn and $40
bushels of oats, this year. He has 20
head of cattle. three horses and one colt
besides several hogs.
I Fremont Livermore of Sebec has a
very promising two-year-old heifer. In
seven days she gave 21S lbs. of milk from
which were made 1914 lbs. of first-class
butter.
A. ]. and c. A. Judkins of West Dover
threshed 110OO bushels of grain during
the y days which they worked. One lot
was that of L. o. Demeritt, of South
Sangerville. who raised SAG bushels on
less than six acres.
Asa Ramsdell of Holmes Bay raised
last season, AIS bushels of potatoes and
300 bushels of turnips. Is bushels of car
rots. II bushels of beets. Il bushels of
parsnips besides other garden produce
and did all the work himself.
A greenhouse that is a masterpiece of
utility and beauty has been erected at
..'Old Farm the summer residence of
Mr.. George b: Dorr, Bar Harbor. The
hot house is building about $50 feet long
and Is wide. with an underpinning OF cut
stone and an iron frame the latter allow
ing the greatest possible amount of glass
exposure. Within are four stages filled
at present with cuttings. some 500 in
number. These stages are so arranged
that every inch of space is economical
The building is heated with hot water.
and piped for irrigating with Eagle lake
water. The irrigation pipes are filed so
that water of any desired temperature
may be obtained and each stage be sep

twelve. On the northern side are the hot
and cold propagating rooms the former
for tender and the latter for the hardy
plants.

| Caribou may or may not be on the
decrease. He is a difficult animal tc
base figures for census on. One day
he is here, the next there. The misra-
tory instinct in him is abnormally de-
veloped, and he is rapid traveller
Louis Bell, a skilled hunter and guide
who spends the greater part of his time
| in the woods near st. Croix lake, on the
Ashland branch of the Bangor & Aroos-
| took, thinks there are more caribou. in
| Maine than ever before. There have
| been enough signs of them this season
on the great Dogs bordering the dead
waters of Howe and Beaver brooks in
| that region, no less than 80 having
been seen during the last two weeks of
November. They are great rovers and
as the line of demarcatiOn between the
Maine forests and the enormous tract
of terra we'll nigh incognita of New
Brunswick and Nova Scotia is merely
geographical boundary hammered
into statutory existence by Webster
and Ashburton five and fifty years ago,
there is nothing to prevent the caribou
from getting away from places made
uncomfortable by the zip and ping of
flying lead. There are caribou enough,
as Louis Bell says, but they must be
hunted for in new quarters. They have
been seen in great numbers in the Dead
river region the past year, and up near
the head waters of the st. John, re-
gion seldom vocal to the voice of the
hunters rifle, the boys look as if great
herds of cattle had been driven over
Them.
1T would appear from reports that
bear are fast disappearing. A great
great many were shot and trapped last
year. one of the largest being killed in
the Schoodic lake region by Game
Commissioner Leroy T. Carleton of Au-
eusta. There is bounty of IS on bears,
but it is useless bounty and could be
used to better advantage in some other
way. In order to secure the bounty
the person who takes the bear must
cut off the ears and nose of the animal
to present as evidence. This spells
the sale of the pelt, which with nose,
and ears intact is worth anywhere
from SIS to $50. A bounty on foxes
would work to better advantage, as
these animals destroy the eggs and
the young of the woodcock and par
fridge. A bounty on bobcats and loup-
cerviers, too, might help protect the
deer. as these animals play an impor-
tant part in keeping down their num-
beers. Fawns are an especial delicacy
for a well-developed bobcat. and when
they light on them from convenient
perch in the deep woods the chances
for the fawn are slim.
While the big game shooting was
good enough, except for those who go
to Maine with the expectation of find
ing live deer in the railway stations,
the bird shooting was not of the kind
to deprive gunners of an excuse for
grumbling. Partridge and woodcock
were scarce, more so,in fact, than they
have been for good many years Old
bird shots were baffied. When the sum-
MGR opaued the prospects for good

The Newport farmers are busy now
harvesting their ice. Since the estab-
fishing of the condensed milk factory
there it has been necessary for many
who We're not in the habit of cutting
ice to put in a good supply for use in
the summer to maintain the proper
temperature of the milk before ship
ment to the factory, and as a result
there are in all probability 100 farmers
who put in a stock of ice. 1t is said
that owing to the light fall of snow the
ice has made fast and that it is at
present about IS inches thick and of a
most excellent quality.

the result of his wisdom.
Just before the adjournment of court
Attorney Sweeney addressed jude Cotfey
on behalf of Mr.. Kane, who wished to
apologize to the court for his hasty words
to Mr.. Deuprey.
Judge Coffey said he thought Mr.. Kane
owed the court two apologies, for he not
only called Mr.. Deuprey liar within the
hearing of the court, but had assumed a
mlnatorv attitude and had engaged in a
second quarrel with that gentleman. He
reproved Mr. Kane for acting as if he
thought the Probate Court were a rousta-
bout resort, place for violence. He vas
reminded of his duty as an officer of the
court, and was told that lie ought 10 keep
his temper and practice self-controL He
could not blame tue papers jor reporting
these disgraceful scenes. He blamed
those who created the disorder.
Mr.. Kane expressed deep contrition and
asked forgiveness, whIcn was granted by
the Judge.
l. was understood that the case is to be
transferred to Judge Sack's department
of the Superior Court for trial, as Judge
Coffey announced that he would not hear
it further
