 c. D. Willard, of the Verde Valley, who has been in the city for a few days, on court business, states that the interest in land matters in the upper part of that valley continues. and there is every indication that values will be maintained if not sub stantially advanced. One of the in teresting projects under headway in the Upper Verde is the boring on a very large area, by Messrs. Scott,
 Discus & Brofn. This firm mas a churn drill at worl, and will bore a series of deep wells. prospecting for water, oil and coal. intending to de- vote several months to the prospect ing. They encountered a clay forma- tiOn, 112 feet in thickness, in one of their wells, which necessitated sus- pensicl of operations and until a smaller bore than ten inches could be secured. Otherwise the work pro. gresses satisfactorily This under. taking is creating general discussion in that section and considerable money will be outlayed before, the determinations are finished.

dent of municipal affairs, has been en-
gagged for Friday evening. His topic

oped, will include reception by Cover

land much acreage which they formerly
called improved
The average size of the Maine farm,
according to the census just taker, is
1919 acres, and the average value of the
farm, including land, buildings, imple-
ments, machinery, and domestic ami
mails, is So, 800, of which land and build
ings represent $3.50, implements and
machinery S241, and domestic animals
S419. The number of farms not having
materially increased, the large increase
in the value of farm property has re-
suited in great rise in the average
value per farm. The average value of
farm property per farm in 1900 was
81, 064, which it will be noted is only
about two-thirds of the present average
value.
OWNERSHIP OF FARMS.
Most of the farms in Maine are owned
farms; that is to say, farms which are
operated by owners as distinguished from
tenant farms, the owned farms consti-
tuting 95.7 per cent of the total number
Of farms. There are 2, 563 tenant farms,
representing 4.3 per cent of the total
number Of farms, and 999 farms operat-
ed for their owners by managers. About
two-thirds of the tenant farms are rent
ed for cash, the remainder being rented
on shares or else returned under "tenure
not specified"
Of the Sc, 454 owned farms in the State
Of Maine, IA. 948, or slightly more than
one-fourth 1855 per cent?, were return
ed as mortgaged. The proportion of
farms mortgaged, it is interesting to
note, is no greater than it was 10 years
ago, in 1900; but from 1890 to 1900 the
percentage Of farms mortgaged increas-
ed from g. l to 26.7.
Of the 1898 mortgaged farms, all
but 54 reported the amount of the mort
gage debt, the aggregate mortgage debt
being $11, 1885, 500. The aggregate value

NOT BREAK A cold

You will distinctly feel your cold
breaking and all the Grippe symp-
toms leaving after taking the very
first dose.
1t is positive fact that Pape's Cold
Compound. taken every two hours,
until three consecutive doses are TAX
en-, will end the grippe and break up
the most severe cold, either in the
head, chest, back, stomach or limbs.
1t promptly relieves the most mis-
cradle headache, dullness, head and
most stuffed up, feverishness, sneez-
ing, sore throat, running of the most
mucous catarrhal discharges, sore
ness, stiffness and rheumatic twinges
Pape's Cold Compound is the re-
suit of three years research at cost
of more than fifty thousand dollars
and contains no quinine, which we
have conclusively demonstrated Is not
effective in the treatment of colds or
grippe.
Take this harmless compound as di.
rected with the knowledge that there
is no other medicine, made anywhere
else in the world which will cure your
cold or end grippe misery as prompt
ly and without any other assistance
or bad after-effects as 25-cent pack

any druggist in the world can supply
