A SUGGESTED IMPROVEMENT.

To THE EDITOR OF The JOURNAL: In
thinking over the numerous improvements
in our beautiful city made within the last
few years l cannot help wondering how
strange it is that one much needed and
easily acquired improvement should be SO
long overlooked and neglected. That is
the need of a modern structure for the win
ter care of the dead. Grove cemeteryis place
visited each year by hundreds of people
who take an interest and pride in the we'll
kept lots, the avenues, the shade trees and
all of the surroundings-excep the pres
ent gloomy looking tomb.
We have one of the most beautiful ceme-
teries in the State of Maine and it's we'll
kept appearance has prompted many COM
pliment, not only from our own residents
but from visiting friends. Yet the old anti
quated, grasscovered receiving tomb still
remains, the only blot on the surrounding
beauty. And those who are so doubly I'M
fortunate as to lose any of their loved ones
during the winter months must have them
piled into this place,tier on tier, until spring
comes when they can be removed.
Now, if your readers will just cast your
minds eye upon the hill and try to imagine
how much more beautiful it would look to
see a nice brick and granite building of
modern style of architecture erected in the
place of the now grass-covered, gruesome
mound that serves as tomb for our rela-
tives and friends, think you will all ac-
knowledge with me that it is time some
such improvement was agitated.
l am informed that at the present time
/, there is between four and five thousand
dollars in the Savings Bank as perpetual
care fund, which is drawing three per cent
interest. This sum [ am sure could easily
be increased to six or seven thousand by a
careful canvas of lot owners. Why moi
! take this fund with what additions can be
made to it and invest the whole in a mod
ern brick and granite building, the city OF
Belfast to pay the three per cent. interest
now received from the bank, and thereby
give the citizens of Belfast building ir
which the remains of their beloved deaG
could be suitably and properly cared for, to-
gether with the flowers, emblems of love
| and esteem, which should accompany them
All this could be arranged in high anG
well ventilated basement. On the fool
above could be small and convenient
chapel where services could be held fol- re
mains of friends brought from away. Be
sides this superintendent office and 6
public waiting room should be provided
Such building would be a permanent or
its citizens.
Will not somebody take little interes
and agitate this question before we are al
laid to rest in our beautiful City of the Dead

WALDO COUNTY STOCK.

"Winter Care of Stock" is the chief topic
of discussion in the December bulletin of
the Maine Department of Agriculture, Just
issued from the office of Commissioner
Gilman. Following is a summary of the
reports of correspondents for Waldo Coun-
ty:
Amount of corn enslage, 96 per cent. A
large part of the sweet corn matured in
most localities. In some sections farmers
are increasing the oat hay crop. Reasons
for decline in sheep husbandry, lack of
pasturage and more interest in dairying.
The number of dairy COWS is increasing
slightly. A little less hay will be shipped
this year than in 1908. Potatoes are keep
ing fully as well as last year. Thirty-eight
per cent have been sold. Spraying for
rust and blight has been success where
practiced.
THoRNDIKE. A prerequisite to success
full feeding is comfortable quarters. With
out warm tie-up with plenty of sun, in
which the cattle are kept clean and COM
Portable, no system of feeding will be sue
cessful. Then we should try to have the
food palatable. In order for stock to do
their best they need to be contented, and
they cannot be if they are feeding under
protest. Whatever we feed we must bal
ance the ration as nearly as possible. |
think each meal should be balanced. If
we feed a ration of rOughage, like corn
sGiiho, otldH VI sWdle Hay, dt noon, we
should feed with it some grain of a high
protein content, like cottenseed or gluten
meal. A carbonaceous ration at noon and d
protein ration at night will not balance
each other. | think they should be fed to-
gether to get the best results. The subject
of feeding has been thoroughly discussed
in the agricultural press and bulletins dur
ing the past five years, but many farmers
have not needed the advice given. While
they believe in the results of scientific re-
search in other callings, they are skeptical
about it in their own. Why has sheep
husbandry declined? We are trying to
The improved sheep kept in the old way on
our deteriOrated pastures give bad results.
There is more profit in the Intelligent keep
ing of sheep, in my opinion, than in the
keeping of any other farm stock, poultry
excepted-C. E. SMITH.
BELFAST. My cows are fed morning,
noon and night, and watered in the barn
twice day. They are not turned out ex-
cept occasionally when it is warm and
pleasant. Some winters they do not 60 out
more than five or six times in all. The cow
and she gives better results when fed most
ly on such food. Many men are buying too
much concentrated feed for their own good.
1t is best to grow all that we can and buy
only what we lack to make up a we'll bal
anced ration, keeping in mind that the bes
ration is the one that pays the most profit
l am making something of speciality of
poultry, and find a fair profit from the
business. Plenty of the right kind of feed,
plenty of exercise, plenty of sunlight, air
and warmth, with water and everything
else needed, will bring you plenty of eggs if
the stock is right to start with.-E. c. Do W

STATE PENSIONS.
Four Hundred Certificates Issue
in Year.

Twenty Four Hundred Certificates Issued
in Year.
The annual report of State Pension Agent
A. c. Milliken states that 24O7 certificates
were issued the past year, the largest
number in the history of the office. These
certificates called for an expenditure of
$S7, 552, but by reason of deaths occurring
pended, with other allowances made for
the appropriations, would actually balance
the amount appropriated by the Legisla-
ture.
Sixty-three deaths have occurred during
the year Five of these were mothers, one
sister, 80 widows, % were invalids. Four
teen of these left widows who have since
applied and been granted State pensions.
Two widows have remarked. Two
widows certificates were revoked on account
of their receiving d United States pension.
Seven were revoked on account of receipts
of United States pensions with quite an
amount of back pay. One invalid pensioner
went to Togus and his certificate was re-
voked. One was revoked on account of
drunken and dissolute habits. Persons are
now on the roll from 359 towns, cities, and
plantations.
Under act of 1903 there have been filed
during the year As applications in aid of
some of the soldiers of the ArooStook war,
and As of these have been issued The
amount appropriated has been entirely
sufficient and will leave quite an unexpend-
ed balance. The oldest invalid now on the
rolls is 90 years of age. The oldest widow
is 80 years old There are four fathers on
the roll all of whom are nearly 80 years.
There are II sisters, Is sons and "a daughters
on the roll The summary shows the
following:
1927 invalids, 1884 widows, Sc mothers,
four fathers, Is sons, "a daughters, II sisters.
Total, 2407.
A table of the business of the office for
the past IL years shows an increase of over
100 in the number of certificates issued in
1904 over those issued in 1898.

that he could dictate not only a coherent
but very readable letter, when kept away
from the window and from the sight of the
passing throng.
This saved Barnes deal of worry and he
believes it helped preserve him so that he
can better stand the stress and strain of his
present White House duties. In the years
since he introduced the photograph in that
department his lines have fallen in more
pleasant places and he is regarded as one
of the most competent men of the White
House force. He enjoys the confidence Of
the President to high degree.

Tonic to the system,

For liver troubles and constipation there
is nothing better than DeWitt's Little Early
Risers, the famous little Pills. They do
not weaken the stomach. Their action
upon the system is mild, pleasant and harm
less. Bob Moore of Lafayette, Ind, says,
mo use talking, DeWitt's Little Early
Risers do their work. All other pills
have used grippe and make me sick in the
somach and never cured me. DeWitt'S
Little Early Risers prove to be the long
sought relief. They are simply perfect"
