The town and corporation assessors
have been busy for the past week, and
the tax assessment is likely TO be COM
mf--rd early. Since the three per cent
discount before the first of June was
uu- I'm force. the assessors have been
yery prompt about getting the assess
ment into the collectors hands.

nation of Governor Hill. The ground
will certainly be settled in good shape
for base ball and other sports by that
time. Whether the state of the season
Wi. Dee such as 70 induce the observance
of the day in manner consistent with
the purposes for which it has been set
apart IS another question.
The Maine Experiment Station weather
bulletin for March shows that the rain
fall for the month was nearly l-2 inches
in excess of the average for 81 years, and
that the temperature was about nine de-
grecs above the average; neither OF
which statements disagrees seriously
with the unrecOrded observations of the
general public.
Extensive Improvements to the farm
buildings are to be made this season by
Nh Rowland at Mountain View Farm.
The old barn will be moved, and in its

". II. Loyejoy drew tax receipt No. l
from the collector last year, and has al
ready made sure of doing the same thing
this year, though he doesn't know yet
what the amount of his tax will be. He
has turned in to Collector Jackson his
bin for winter work on the road, which
will undoubtedly be sufficient TO cover
his tax when it is assessed. Just think
what a picnic the collector would have,
if everybody was as prompt as that.
The doll which was TO be given away
at the rose carnival was not awarded, as
the name, Artemisia, had not been
guessed by any of the contestants.
After the carnival the list of names
which had been guessed was submitted
to Rev. Miss Angel, who had had no
connection with the contest, and she Sc
lected the name of Phebe. This, name
had been guessed by l.. B. Carter, and
the doll has accordingly been presented
% him. liz is needless TO say that he Is
delighted with the dainty creature.
Notwithstanding the more or less
mixed condition of the travelling, Oxford
Pomona Grange had a large meeting
here Tuesday. Nearly seventy-hve
members of Paris Grange were present,
a large delegation from Norway, and
representatives of most if not all the
other subordinate oranges, and 1t was
quite lively day in the village. The
weather was fine, and the meeting Is re-
ported very profitable. The meeting
was addressed in the afternoon by state
Lecturer W. j. Thompson of Kennebec
County.
