Somerset Pomona

A special meeting of the Pomona
was held in conjunction with the An
nual Field day of Starks Grange, Tues
day, June %. 1t proved one of those
days when hot wave moved up from
the torrid zone with such force that
many preferred the welcome shade of
friendly trees rather than to undergo
the active duties connected with a
Pomona grange meeting.
The master, lecturer, assistant
steward, secretary, Ceres and lady
assistant steward, together with re-
representatives. from surrounding
oranges gathered at the hall and
opened the Pomona with splendid
address of welcome by L. F. Butler,
master of Starks grange and a res
ponse to the address by F. E. Davis,
assistant steward of the Pomona.
The questions presented for discus
sion we're: The Importance of farmers
producing more starch food upon
their farms and lessening their ex
penses for the same; can beef and
pork be raised at a profit on our
farms? and Do farmers pay attention
enough to their dress and personal
appearance while at work on their
farms and in public? These questions
were discussed by L. F. Butler, F. E.
Davis, Otis Hilton, S. F. Emerson,
G. S. Stetson, H. A. Merrill, Clara B.
Leavitt and Mrs. G. S. Stetson.
In the afternoon the Annual Field
day of Starks Grange was observed
and was open to the public. State
Master Gardner, Hon. NJ. L. Merrill
and State Deputy G. S. Stetson were
the speakers. Several grange sub
jects, taxation and the advantages of
Maine occupied the attention of the
speakers. In the midst of welcome
thunder shower the meeting came to
a close and all were glad to have the
privilege of riding home in mud in
stead of dust.
Next meeting of the Pomona is with

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion Of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an inhamed condition Of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is inhamed you have rumblng sound or inn
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result, and unless the in
hammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition OF the mucous surfaces.
