The following paragraph from the
AroOstook Republican is Of interest TO
those who remember the high quality of
garden which Mr.. Ramsdell maintained
when he lived at South Paris: "a letter
from one of the leading seed firms OF
the country was recently received by
Rev. T. ). Ramsdell of Caribou asking
for seed from tomatoes ripened In his
garden the past season. 1t is the pur-
pose of the firm to plant this seed in
their experimental grounds with the
hope of developing an earlier strain OF
the variety in question from seed grown
in the far north. Who says Aroostook
can raise nothing except potatoes?

lures on India at the Baptist church.
These lectures will be illustrated by the
stereopticon and several sets OF moving
pictures taken by Mr.. Vinton himself.
The pictures themselves will give vivid
portrayal of the life in Burma. Mr.. Vim
ton is exceedingly well qualified to
speak on the land of Burma for he was
born there and his father and grandfath-
er were missionaries to the people as
well as himself. Mr.. Viuton was col
lege mate of Mr. Chesbro and is speak
er Of great interest and power.
