Rather a hard sap season so far, but
then there is nearly one week more in
March yet, and one good old lady, who
generally knew what she was talking
about, used TO say trees never should be
tapped until April however favorable the
weather might appear before that time.
That may be true as rule, but there are
exceptions, since springs vary two or
three weeks, and all kinds of farm work
should be done accordingly. We have
seen the very best of sap weather during
the first half of March, as for example
the spring of 1894, as many will remem-
Der.
Apropos to the sap question, one man
met with rather hard luck, although
nothing very serious. He was walking
down a descent with two pals Of sap,
when the ice under the snow caused him
to lose his equilibrium with the result
that he found himself lying PROSTATE
and minus the two pals of sap, but not
seriously injured. Shortly after the fall
he went to cross over the brook when
the ice gave way and down went one foot
Il into the water, filling his rubber
boot to the brim. On the same day he
went into the sap house and while there
the wind closed the door, at the same
time turning the button on the outside
and no one else within hearing distance.
There was small window on the oppo-
site side, but so near the hot funnel and
directly behind it that to get out there
was impracticable to say the least. But
there is an old proverb that where there
is will there is way, and in due time
he found his way out of prison.
| Charles Verrill called here on his way
home from Rumford Falls, having been
gone from home more than a week. He
found the market we'll nigh glutted with
apples this time so as to be obliged to
sell good Baldwins for 81 LOO barrel.
Frank Ring goes on to the town farm
this year and has turned his stock over
to his brother Wesley, together with hay
to keep them out.
Speaking of hay, report says it is get
ting scarce in places, and some have
bought aud are using pressed hay as the
handiest to get if not the only kind to
be had.
There is charming young lady en-
ployed at the Bennett place, and last
Sunday Nelson Cole from Howe Hill
made friendly call, and during the time
presented the young lady with box of
the finest candy. Further developments
are among the possibilities.
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Ring will care for
the poor farm and its inmates the COM

NOW N in PLACE
Dogs and Horses Provided With
Drinking Accommoda tions on
Broad Street.

After more than a years delay the
fountain donated to the city by the
National Humane Alliance has been re-
ceived and placed at the intersection
of Brook Avenue and Broad Streets.
The fountain weighs about five tons.
and is chiseled out Of Maine granite.
with bronze ornaments on the. main
basin. Smaller drinking places near
the ground have been provided for
dogs and small animals. The cost of
the fountain is $1,000, Council having
appropriated $500 for It's erection and
maintenance.
A large electric lamp, with bronze
stand. will ornament the fountain. Tho
movement for establishing these drink
ing places was started by the late
Herman Lee Ensign, who bequeated a
large fortune for. the carrying out OF
his ideas. A Pennsylvania by birth.
Mr.. Ensign began work as tele-
grapher. From this work he earned
enough money to enter Phillips Acad-
envy with the idea Of educating himself
for the ministry. Lack Of finances or
some other reason forced him to quit.
He drifted Into the bridge building
business, but finally abandoned 1t for
newspaper work. He died at New York
in 1893, after founding the Humane
Alliance to perpetuate his work. Mr..
Ensign was actuated by deep
sympathy for dumb animals. He re-
garded the horse and the dog rather as
companions than inferior beings. As
such he considered that they had a
claim on man for support and kind
ness. In accordance with his wishes
the Alliance has established these
fountains with the interest from the
fortune left by Mr.. Ensign.
William r. Mason,Sa local contractor,
has charge of the work. n.

"A safe thing to do this year will be

prepare for the Fourth by purchasing
