Wreck of the Catboat Inca.

Sunday morning strong southwesterly
wind prevailed increasing in strength as the
day wore on, and meeting the ebb tide it
soon created an uncomfortable chop in the
bay. 1t was not day for pleasure sailing,
but between and 10 a. III. the Edna started
for Islesboro with quite party on board
She left the mooring under full lower sails,
but anchored off the lower shipyard and
tied two reefs in the mainsai, and slowed
she beat down the bay but before encounter
ing the worst of it the party concluded to
return. Soon after the Edna reached her
mooring, S. B. Hollis catboat Inca was
seen beating down the harbor under full
sails. She was making pretty good weather
of it, but the full force of the wind and
sea would not be felt until she got out
into the bay. 1t was noticed that there
was some difficulty in getting her about,
and those watching her from the shore
expected soon to see her put back. She
kept on, however, and later in the day
it was learned that she had been wreck
ed on Sears Island. Two men, one the
mate of schooner in port, had hired the
boat to go to Fort Point. 1t appears that
when near the west side of Sears Island they
attempted to go about, but the boat mstay-
ed and in wearing the main boom broke and
the sail was rendered useless. There was a
| heavy sea running and the Inca was
soon pounding on the rocks on Sears Island
The men got ashore in the tender and hired
man to bring them home. The Inca was
seen later in the evening and reported to be
breaking up, but Monday A. L. Robbins
went over and got out the ballast so that the
craft hoated and Tuesday morning he start
ed with her for Belfast. The wind was SO
strong he was obliged to anchor off Moose
Point. She was lowed in yesterday after
noon and will be beached for examination

that could be desired and the attendance
was very large. 1t was estimated by good
judges that over 20 900 people attended dur
ing the three days of the fair, and it is adj
mltted by all that the fair just closed was
the largest and best in the history of the So
ciety The usual side shows were to be
found in the Midway. In one we noticed
the tivefooted horse, four-footed hen, etc,
and there We're merry-go-rounds, shooting
galleries and ball dodgers. In walking
about the grounds the absence of any kind
of gambling was noticeable, it having been
positively prohibited by the management.
For 80 large a crowd it was the most order
ly assemblage ever seen at the fair, and the
Chief of Police, Mr.. Tibbetts of Hermon, says
there was less drunkenness than he had ever
seen for so large gathering. There were no
rows on the grounds-not one-and the
President, M. c. Chapman of Newburg, has
reason to feel proud over the success of the
fair. No liquor was sold on the grounds al
though there was more than one hundred
places or tents where refreshments were
sold, and all that was allowed to be dis
pensed was a light beer labelled per cent.
| The show of cattle was the largest
seen on these grounds, including droves of
Guernseys, Herefords, Durhams and Jer-
seys. The exhibit of sheep was very fine.
Hon. |. G. Reynolds of Brooks was prom
| inent exhibitor in this line. The show of
| poultry was very good and included some
| fancy breeds which We're much admired
Ho ulSpldyS Ol NeSeta bleS anu 1rult were not
| so large as in other years on account of the
wet and generally unfavorable season. The
| ladies' department was above the standard
and their hall looked very nice. There was
fine display of carpets, rugs and embroid-
cry. The show of dairy products, butter
and cheese, was excellent and there was also
good display of preserves, pickles, etc.
The trotting was the main feature. and fast
time was the rule. 1t was very dusty, and
unfortunately the water gave out on the
second day, which made it very uncomfort-
| able; but no one regretted it more than the
managers of the fair, and this will be rene
died before another year comes around.
| There We're no accidents of any kind except
the breaking down of one carriage, but no
| one was hurt.

On another page we give some inter
apple belt of Illinois, But apple growing
is not the only successful industry of that
fertile region. AT Alma, a station a few
miles north of Centralia, tract of land
has been found to be just right for
| the nutmeg melon. Nutmegs are grown
there in forty acre fields. Within six
years the industry has developed. Up to
Sept. 2nd there had been shipped from
Alma the present season 222 car loads of
these melons. The berry business is also
large and profitable one. In the earlier
years of the strawberry industry the prices
were as high as s. and Sc crate. Now
they get 81 a crate and are satisfied as
the risks are assumed by the professional
buyer. The grower delivers his crate
at the depot, gets the price and closes
the transaction. The shipper loads his
cars, chooses his market and takes all
risks of getting even or ahead. One of
these buyers the past season shipped from
Centralia five and six cars of berries a
day. These wonderful fruit farms have
been developed on land where a grain
grower could not compete with adjacent
sections. The case of G. H. Perrine is
cited as a practical illustration of the
great change that has come about.
Mr.. Perrine came here from a State
farther east and turned his attention -
farming. He has been in this part of
Illinois twenty-five years. In 1892 he was
heels over head in debt He was confused
and discouraged. He told some of his
friends he felt like giving up. That year
he had sixty-tive acres of strawberries.
His crop pulled him out of debt and gave
him margin from which he built resi-
dence costing SO, 900. He has been max
ing money ever since. One day this year he
paid to strawberry pickers 1920 He has
what is believed to be the largest straw
berry patches in the State, and he has one
Of the largest apple orchards.
