GOOD COOKING DEPENDS MORE ON
THE STOVE THAN ON The COOK.

1t would be an unusual cook who
would acknowledge that half the praise
bestowed upon her delicious cooking"
belonged to the stove. But it would be
an extraordinary cook who would fail
to cast the entire blame on the stove
when the dinner was spoiled.
Yet it goes without saying that every
housewife appreciates the helpful CO.
operation of a good stove just as keen
ly as she deplores the draw backs of a
bad one, The range that makes cook
ing easy" viii make cooking better, in
that the housewife who can do a sue
cesSful days baking or cook big, de-
licious dinner without getting tired can
put her reserve energy into something
else.
That housewives do appreciate the
advantages of stove that makes cook
ing easy is evidenced by the tremen-
douS popularity of Glenwood Ranges.
The very fact that Glenwood Ranges
are as simple as abe in construction
tends to save much of the hard work
that invariably accompanies cooking
on the ordinary range. In one of the
popular Glenwoods everything is get
at-able at the front; ash-pan, broiler,
door, crate, and clean-out door-all are
handy. Kitchen doors do not interfere
in setting this range, for either end as
well as back may be placed squarely
against the wall.
All Glenwood Ranges are notable for
their exceptional compactness, fuel saw
ing appliances and durability of con-
struction, all of which are very import
ant factors in saving the labor as well
as making for the superiority and econo-
my of the Range.
Not only this, but the drudgery in
separable from cooking on the ordinary
stove is wholly removed with modern
GlenWood.
The name ''Glenwood' is today a
household word due in large measure
to the good reports of it that neighbGr
has made to neighbor-for it has been
proved beyond any question of doubt
that the Glenwood Range certainly does
make cooking easy"
Leading dealers sell Glenwood Ranges,
Steam and Water Boilers everywhere
as the standard. No risk is taken in
buying the Glenwood, for they are guar
anteed by the makers to give the service
and satisfaction that they were intend
ed to give.

U. S. COAST SURVEY WORK.

During the past two seasons the work
of the U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey
has been in Eggemoggin Reach, Jericho
bay and Isle au Haut bay, and the i'm
portance of it may be judged from the
fact that between so and 100 uncharted
shoals were located. Under the new
method of survey work drag varying
in width from 500 to l 400 feet is used,
this drag consisting of horizontal
wire beneath the waters surface, sup
ported at either end and in the middle,
by large buoys. This drag was towed
by launches, with lines attached to the
buoys. By this method any desired
depth is secured, the depth also being
regulated in accordance with the tide.
The entire area was covered to depth
of SO feet at mean low water. Under
the old method-using lead line-it
was impossible to locate many shoals,
consequently they have never been
noted on the government charts until
very recently. AS the vessels have a
much deeper draft now than at the
time the original survey was made the
Importance of the work is readily seen.
While the work in this vicinity has
been in progress eight officers of the
Coast and Geodetic Survey and Is or 16
other men have been constantly EN-.
ployed. The Importance and necessity
of surveying the entire Penobscot bay
is now being urged. 1t would take
several seasons, but the value of the
work to such an important shipping
center would fully warrant it.

APPLE CROP FAILURE.

The apple crop of the United States
for 1907, as estimated by the New Eng
land Homestead in its report appear
ing Nov. 8, is scant 100000 barrels.
This total is materially short of last
year, and failure even more marked
compared with 1906 and 1908. What is
of greatest Importance is the shortage
in such commercial orchard sections as
Western New York, nearly all of Mich
igan aud the entire Southwest. In a
general way the shortage is more pro-
nounced there than anywhere else, with
what may be set down as an absolute
failure in Kansas, Missouri, and Nebras-
ka this descr ption nearly holding good
in few other States.
New York State has good many ap-
pies in the aggregate, and of excellent
quality, but they will all be needed, and
for that matter the total yield is only
about a fourth to third of full yield.
Pennsylvania has fairly abundant to-
tails, but that State never cuts much fig
ure in the commercial supply of Winter
apples. New England has rather more
apples than last year, due solely to the
fact that Maine surprised its best
friends by finally bringing to maturity
a good crop.

HER oand BIRTHDAY.

Mrs. Mary Perkins of North Castine
entertained friends and neighbors Nov.
End, in honor of the ninety second
birthday of her mother, Mrs. Elizabeth
5. Turner, says correspondent of the
Ellsworth American. Representatives
from four generations were present.
After an hour of social intercourse a
sumptuous dinner was served. A
birthday cake, beautifully decorated,
with the figures 1922 in the center, fur
nlshed by Mrs. Ada Joyce, was the chief
attraction. None entered into the en-
joyment of the hour with greater zest
than the guest of honor. Music was
furnished by the Wardwell sisters,
whose musical ability has been known
and appreciated in this section for
many years. The old-time melodies,
charmingly rendered by Miss Sylvia,
aged seventy-three years, with violin
selections by Miss Virginia, aged sew
enty- five years, and guitar accompani-
ments by Mrs. Annette Bird, touched a
responsive chord in the hearts of all.
Mrs. Turner is remarkably well-pre-
served, having possession Of all her fac
uitles and converses intelligently upon
all subjects. She was the recipient of
many gifts. Congratuatory letters
from relatives in other States were re-
celved and readily perused by her. The
guests, ON departing, were presented
with specimens of her hand!work as
souvenirs of the occasion. Surely the
promise 'At evening time it shall be
light is being verified unto her.

cargo which sold for $4,000, while ten
years later this same vessel returned to
port with another cargo valued at $I39,
600.
Capt. Edward Penniman of Eastman
is another who always sailed in luck.
His voyage in the Europa, which began
September -, 1876, and ended in little
more than three years. turned out ZOO
barrels of whale oil, 1850 barrels of
sperm oil and $4,000 pounds of whale
bone. That voyage is said to have net
ted Swift Il Perry, her owners, nearly
S250000. This same whaling master in
five voyages as master took no less
than 1887 barrels of sperm oil, 10,S76
barrels of whale oil and $780, 7l pounds
of .whalebone, and the best part of his
luck was in returning home when pri-
ceS ruled high.
The late Charles Grant of Nantucket
is another who made great record as
sperm whaler. His voyage in the
Milton, which terminated on June 20,
1869, forty-six months from home,
brought abont S250,000 the owners real
ling $4,000. Capt Grant also made
big cut IN the Niger. Like Capt Rey-
nard of Fall River he generally sailed
on his own terms, for he was man
who could get the OIL
There are many interesting facts in
connection with the records of this
once great industry. For instance, the
bark Rainbow, |. H. Bartlett & Sons,
owners, in ten voyages of six months
each to the Arctic Ocean from 1875 to
1855, took 1854 barrels of whale oil
and 1887 pounds of whalebone, be-
sides 800 barrels of sperm oil on her
passages to the straits. The ship Hi
nois, another Bartlett ship, in four seas
ons to the Arctic took 5,442 barrels of
whale oil and u, 355 pounds of bone.
The ship Young Phoenix, John
Avery Parker owner, 1880 to 1878, took
%, 419 barrels of sperm Oil, 9,4SS barrels
of whale oil and her cargoes brought
$1,O96, 900.
What is said to be one of the most
successful whaling ventures ever car
RED out at this port was that of the
bark Envoy. fitted by William o.
Brownell in 1913. The ship made but
one voyage from this port. After send
ing home 300 barrels of whale oil and
$4,000 pounds of whalebone she was
sold to parties on the Pacific Coast. 1t
always has been claimed that the En-
voy Melted her owners 100000, which
is certainly a mighty good return on
the money invested.
