The Non-Partisan W. C. Alliance.

The annual meeting of the \. p. Alliance
was held with Mrs. Kate Conant, Congress
street, Friday, Nov. I'd. The threatening
clouds of the previous day gave way to
glorious sunshine, and nothing was want
ing to make the day full of enjoyment. The
forenoon was spent in social way, and
happy greetings given those who had not met
with the ladies for long time. A notable
feature was the reunion of three ladies who
last met i'll California, and among the guests
were two ladies over eighty years of age,
whom the Alliance are always glad to have
with thenl-Mrs NJ Gannans and Mrs
Noyes. At 1870 the ladies were called to
the dining room, where a bountiful dinner
awaited them and which was heartily en-
joyed by all. Everything was made de-
lightful by the hostess and the ladies in
attendance, and the only regret of the day
was the absence, by illness, of Mrs. Fred
Gltlin-the President, and that even one
member should be kept away from such
happy gathering.
The business meeting was called to order
soon after dinner, and Mrs. Pilsbury called
to preside, with Mrs. Gammans as secretary
pro TEN. After Scripture reading and prayer
the election of officers for the ensuing year
was in order The board of last year were
reelected, unanimously: Mrs. Annie NJ.
Griffin, Presidents Vice Presidents, Mrs.
chas. A. Pilsbury Mrs. Sanford III. Mathews,
Mrs. Albert Gammans, Miss Mary Jackson
and Mrs. Geo. F. Ryan; Sec'y and Treas,
Mrs. Mary f. Hubbard committee on sew
ing school, Mrs. ]. Havner, Miss Carrie
Cutter, Mrs. Mary E. Hubbard, Mrs. A. c.
Sibley and Miss Lillian Ryan.
The sewing school was arranged for, with
Miss Lillian Ryan as teacher. Money and
contributions of material for its support
were received and much interest expressed
for its continuance. Many matters were
discussed, among which was the curfew
law, and the need of such protection to
the children, and the united desire of the
meeting was forcibly expressed, that it be
given trial. A vote of thanks was given
Mrs. Conant for her generous hospitality,
and with renewed interest in the work of
the Alliance, and with hearty good cheer,
the ''goodbyes" were said.

Some Near By Farms.

The Journal is pleased to note, from year
to year, gradual but sure improvement in
the condition of the farms, and in the meth
ods OF work and the implements employed.
There is a general increase in the amount
OF neat stock kept, the tlocks of poultry are
much larger and more attention is paid to
them; grains are grown more largely from
cultivation increased productiveness re-
suits. The Journal has noted recently a
few farms visited by its representatives,
and this week we give few particulars in
regard to two others.
James ?. Wight has for % years past
lived ON what is known as the Goodell farm
on the Lincolnville road. This, and the
Hicks farm, which joins it on the west,
comprise $50 acres, GO of which are under
cultivation, and this year eight acres were
in hoed crops and grain. Mr. Wight keeps
II cows and 6 horses. He separates the
milk and sells the cream at the Belfast
creamery. He will build silo for next
seasons corn crop. Several years ago Mr..
Wight opened the sand bed on the farm,
and has furnished building sand therefrom
for large proportion of the buildings erect
ed in the city. He has a handsome and
promising colt, 6 months old, by Silver
Spray, dam by Young Thackambeau.
Ansel Wadsworth has been on the r. W.
Ellis farm on the Belmont road six years
and has made many Improvements both in
the land and buildings. The lumber for the
buildings was all cut on the farm. and the
hardwood tloorS show that our native for
ests furnish material for the incest of
work. The improvements to the buildings
are not completed, but include general
oyerhauling of the premises. Water is
supplied to the buildings from an artificial
pond made by damming the stream which
runs north of the house. The water is
forced up by hydraulic ram, which proves
perfectly satisfactory Mr. Wadsworth
had 10 acres under the plow this year, in
cluding three acres in yellow corn, which
he estimates cost 40 cents per bushel
against an average retail price of 81 cents
this fall. He also had three acres in buck
wheat, crop but little raised in this see
ton. He has a large orchard. His crop Of
merchantable baldwins this year was about
400 barrels, in addition to few barrels
killed by the frost. He keeps IL head of
grade Jerseys, and winters about $50 laying
hens.

A New Book by Mrs. Richards.

ing story of little runaway girl, who
finds herself in a wood. Instead of being
frightened she Immediately sets about to
look for the little house she confidently ex-
poets to find. She fears it may prove to be
the habitation of an old witch, but,
cheered by the remembrance of the happy
reception given Snowwhte by the seven
little dwarfs, she merrily continues on her
way. After some little time she suddenly
comes upon the house she seeks and enter
ing, finds the only inhabitant to be little
bumped back dwarf, whose winning smile
and kind eyes reassure the little maiden
The dwarf proves to be a millionaire who
had retired from contact with the world and
had made friends and companions Of the
woodland creatures. The incidents of her
stay, his story, and their return to the
world together, go to make up the dainty
little volume, sure to find favor with old and
young alike. Dana Estes Il Co., Boston,
publishers.
