| WHAT THE FISHERMAN CAUGHT. Very few matters work after midday on Saturday. The afternoon is usually spent attending to necessary business or on a pleasure trip to some neighbor- ing lake to fish, or in attending the ball game. Last Saturday the choice appeared to be more in favor of fish ing trip. Representative c. T. Hickok,
 who was relieved from official duties in Harford, last week, spent day or two camping at Balls pond with Mrs Hicllok and a few intimate friends. On Saturday afternoon MT and Mrs Howard Judd and MT and Mrs Theodor e Smith enjoyed a trip to Taunton Lake. Aside from the pleasure of an after noon off from business and a boating | trip about the beautiful little lake, they were in hard luck for they could | neither entice the finny tribe to take a bite of frog, alligator or night walker. A GREAT HAY CROP.
 | Dr A. B. Barber reaped bountiful crop of choice hay from his Sandy Hol- 1 low meadow, this year. A half cen l tury little more has passed since this fertile piece of land was an alder swamp surrounded by high gravel | knolls. A deep channel on the Maple
 street side of the swamp was cut to
 drain the land. Ira Williams came in
 possession of the property, cut off the
 brush and plowed the field and i'm
 proved the land for a meadow. Later
 the property was in the possession of Ranson Seeley number of years, who | took great pride in his swamp meadow | to keep his land in a high state of cul-
 tivation- He usually blows a part
 each year to keep the grass tame or l free from swamp grass which was apt
 to show in wet season. MT Seeley
 was in the livery business and made large quantities of warmer which he
 applied to the land without stint,
 which enabled him to cut great crops
 of hay; three tons first crop and two
 the second. Dr Barber usually cuts a
 crop of hay and pastures off the second, with possibly just as good results
