A gentleman called at this Office Monday
and said he had lost on the street few DAYS
before stylographic pen and pair of eye
glasses in case. He did not authorize us to
offer reward, but would no doubt give one to
the finder, as he particularly regretted the loss
of the glasses.

The Secretary of the State board of assess
ors, who recently returned to Augusta from a
trip through Knox, Lincoln and Waldo counties,
says:
The hay crop for 1909 will be slightly in ex-
cess of that of 1908, but not enough to mater
tally increase the amount of live stock. We
find a large increase of potatoes in Waldo
county, principally through the towns upon
the Belfast branch of the Maine Central
Unity, Thorndike, Troy, Knox, Brooks and
Waldo. The outlook for this crop, judging
ferent town and city assessors, is very prom
Using, and without doubt the potato crop this
year will be one of the largest ever.
