last of this week.
The r. F. Jaynes Creamery Co. of this
city is experiencing perhaps more anxiety
on this account than any other. Mr.
Jaynes last week had men at work ir
Winthrop and Unity in either harvesting
his ice or preparing for the same. Ir
Winthrop nearly One-third of the work
had been accomplished which is nov
suspended. In Unity on Unity pond. 10,
O00 cakes of ice had been grooved, not 4
block of which. according to his judg-
mcnt. is likely to be taken from the river
except it can be hauled over 4 mile road
on wheels. On visiting the place Tues
day morning he found that the lake ice
had receded from the shore for several
feet and was already becoming honey
combed, a condition which no amount OF
freezing can improve.
II am staggered at the prospect OF
bridging the shore and using wagons,
Mr. Jaynes said but the season is get
ting late and I am not positive that this
will not have to be done. The frost is
rapidly leaving the ground and the situa
ton is most discouraging.
The rumbermen in the northern part OF
Maine have been contending with an un-
usually small amount of snow in getting
their logs ready for ynrdng. AccordinG
to a statement recently published in tho
Journal from the lips of VIM. J. Lanni-
gan. logs have not been hauled over TIL;
roads to a good advantage until within
the past two weeks. At the present tim.
