"surn;na Cob. for Charcoal"

Dig a hole in the ground five feet
deep, one foo in diameter at the bot
tom and five feet at the top. for the
charcoal pit. Take the corn cobs. which
have been saved in a dry place, and,
starting a fire In the bottom Of this pit,
keep adding cobs SO that the flame Is
gradually ORA MI { the top Of the pit
which will thus be filled with the cobs.
Then take a sheet iron cover. similar to
a pot lid in form, five feet in diaemeter,
SO as to amply cover the hole and close
up the burning mass, sealing the edges
of this lid in turn with earth. At the
end OF twelve hours. you may o
and take out q fine sample of corn cob
charcoal. We always make enough Of
this charcoal during this time, for the
whole year. We then make a mixture
as follows:
Take six bushels Of this cob char
coal or three bushels OF common char
coal: eight pounds Of salt; two quarts
Of air Stacked lime: one bushel OF wood
ashes.
Break the charcoal well down, with
shovel or other implement and thor
oughly mix all these things together.
Then a one n one-quarter pound
of eopperas and dissolve in hot water
and with an ordinary water pot sprin-
kle over the whole mass and the again
mix thoroughly. Put this mixture into
the self-feeding boxes, before described.
and place them where all hogs Of all
ages can eat OF their contents, at
pleasure. This mixture aids in diges-
ton and destroys intestinal worms,
which. the hog is liable to, from the
fact that he goes with his nose to the
ground. and is more easily affected
than many other animals. BY this
means, we provide these things for
which he roots and upturns the soil
and even destroys walls laid in mortar,

"There is possibility that Maine. in common

States, may secede from the national grange"
said William J. Thompson of South China, Me,
former State lecturer and for many years
active in the State grange. although we hope
that the present unsatisfactory conditions may
be amicably adjusted. 1t is not exactly fight
that Maine is engaged in against the national
grange, but it is movement for stronger
representation and more voice in the general
councils of the national organization. Maine
does not want the whole thing, but she does
want slice once in while. For many years

MAINE LEADS IN POTATOES
In the Yield Per Acre and in Quality.

The Kansas Packer published recently
a tabulated crop report of the potatoes
raised in the various States of the union
which compared the per acre yield for
1909 and 1910, the average for the past
decade, the per cent. in quality for the
same years and period, and the full crops
for this year and last. While Names
crop did not lead in amount, not having
quite so large area in potatoes as some
of the others, she led the average yield
per acre in the two years compared, 225
bushels in 1909 and 210 in 1910, and in the
average for the decade, $50 bushels. Her
average in the three cases was practical
ly double that of the United States as
whole, 1O6, SO and 81 bushels, respective
ly, for the periods considered. Maine is
ahead of New York by small marginin
the advance in average production over
the ten year average in both 1909 and
1910. Both nearly doubled their ten-year
average in the crop of 1909. Taking 100
per cent as the standard of perfection,
the average of the United States was SO
the last two years and for the decade
past was 81. Maine leads in quality in
1910 with 81 as her record, and for the
decade she heads the list at IS. In 1909
Maine ranked 80 or eight below the aver
age She was better than the average
this year by nine per cent. and made
gain of II per cent, the highest gain of
any of the States, going from the lowest
place in point of quality, or 80 in 1909 to
the highest of 1910, or 81 per cent.

NEWSPAPER COMMENT.

We notice some of our Democratic
friends who were enthusiastically in
favor of Senators being elected by di-
rect vote of the people at time when
the Republicans were in control in this
State, have changed their ideas very
much and seem to be satisfied now with
machine made Senators, seeing they are
big wheel in the machine. Really there
does seem to be some difference between
twidledee and twidledum. Lisbon En-
terprise.
With the passing of Mrs. Mary Baker
Eddy, the world loses one of the most
remarkable characters of modern times.
Perhaps, now that her wonderful per
sonality has been eliminated, humanity
will be willing to look upon her work
without prejudice, although time is usual
ly necessary to give true perspective.
But to have made the Holy. Scriptures
vital force in the daily life of thousands
to whom the Bible had formerly been
closed book, is no slight accomplishment,
and her place in history is reasonably Sc

There are many States to whom the
argument of larger House membership
appeals. 1t gives those States an in
creased number of federal places.
Gov. Burleigh has canvassed the situa-
ton very thoroughly already and knows
the State delegations, both Democratic
and Republican, that are disposed to re-
spond to such an appeal and muster their
votes in support of it. He has already
made some figures on the total voting
strength which can be summoned in be-
half of the proposition. He is not in
position yet to say that victory is ahead,
but the showing is sufficient to encour-
age him to work with redoubled energy.
There is universal regret in Washing
ton, as well as in Maine and throughout
the country, at the coming retirement of
Senator Hale. He is regarded as the
very strongest member of the United
States Senate. He has had long and
honorable service and during his distin
guished career has stood firmly for his
native State and the entire country.
