promoters will achieve their purpose.
A charter exists for such an enter
prise and it is claimed by the pro
moters that in recent years an effort
has been made to divert traffic over
the Songo river route away from
Bridgton village. The proposition is
to lay tracks from the steamboat
landing to the head of Main street
in Bridgton village. Bridgton is ask
ed to subscribe $1,000 for stock,
which heinz done the steamboat
company stands ready to supply the
remainder of the funds needed to
build and equip the road.

The Augusta train service of so
years ago was somewhat meager
compared with that of today. Ac-
cording to the Kennebec & Portland
time table of April 1, 1861, train
left Augusta at Ills a. m, over the
Kennebec & Portland and one left
Portland at l p. m. for Augusta, con-
Meeting at Augusta with the Kenne
bee & Somerset and at Kendalls Mills
on the latter road with the Kennebec

service given except that in the sum-
mer a train left Augusta for Portland
at $50 a. m. on Mondays and one left
Portland for Augusta at SIS p. m. on
Saturdays. Stage connections were
made for Rockland at Bath from
which city stages left at a. m. and

In all the territory where soft coal is
relied upon chiefly as fuel for the
kitchen stove 1t is the very bane Of
cleanly housewives, smearing their
floors, soiling the wall paper, dirtylng
dishes and blackening wearing apparel
The chief fault with this kind Of fuel
Is that under the conditions which
usually prevail c".bpete combustion
Of the coal is not So ured-that is, the
smoke and SCOT are not consumed, but
clog and retard the stove, the pipes
and flues. While the trouble cannot
be entirely done away. 1t can be mate
rally improved by replenishing the
stove more frequently and breaking
the coal up into finer pieces. II at
hand 1t will be found n great help to
use either cobs or wood with the soft
coal. In some localities it Is possible
te get coke from which the oils and
SCOT producing elements have been
largely removed. This makes n very
hot fire and Will have to be watched
closely and renewed quite frequently.
1t is only recently that the full value
of rape as a pasture for growing pigs
has come to be fully realized. and this
only by the most progressive hog
raisers. One acre of good stand OF
rape will furnish pasture for from
fifteen to twenty-five hogs, depending
~
plant prefers moist, cool soil, full OF
humus. and should be sown in the
spring as soon rs the danger of frost
Is over. II broadcasted. from six to
eight pounds OF seed should be used
per acre. II drilled. as IS sometimes
done. In rows from twenty to thirty
inches apart. from three to five pounds
will answer. Excellent results are
also secured by sowing about five
pounds of seed on part Of the land
to be devoted to oats and clover, the
latter seed being put In after the rape.
and grow slowly until the oats are
rut. after which 1t will grow more
rapidly. or the oats. clover and rape
patch may be used as a pasture as
soon as 1t gets six seven inches
high. no attempt being made to har-
vest the grain. Such pasture gives m
excellent variety and together with
corn and oil meal and such milk or
buttermilk as is available makes pos
sible very economical pork production.
Rape is sometimes sown with satisfac-
tory results ms late as June *, but It
will not do well II the weather is dry
during the weeks following.

COOPER SHOT
FARM FOREMAN
Shooting Scrape Near Hillsboro
Yesterday May Terminals
Fatally

Hillsboro, N. d., March IL
Growing out of a clash over
authority Frank Ross, foreman
on the Harry Cooper farm,
eight miles from aillsboro, was
This morning shot by Mclean
Cooper. aged %. Ross, para
iyzed from the middle of the
back down, is in the Hillsboro
hospital. with young Coope,
lodged in Jail.
The shooting took place be
tween 6 aud Z o'clock this morn.
ing when Cooper and Ross be-
came involved in quarrel,
Cooper having opened fire en-
Ross after the latter had been
successful in throwing him
over a fence in scuffle.
The firsit evidence of trouble
on the farm, so far as the offici-
ais are concerned, was received
last night when young Cooper
telrphoned to the sheriff, ask
ing him to come to the farm
and place Ross under arrest.
This the sheriff refused to do,
Cooper being unwilling to
swear out any warrant.
This morning, Sc far as can
be learned. Cooper and Koss
became engaged la a quarrel
which led to blows. In the
scufile Ross was successful in
throwing Cooper over a fence.
Then Cooper, enraged at this
action, pulled a revolver and
started to fire, aiming several
shots toward Ross feet. With
this new turn in affairs Ross,
declaring that he, too, would
get a gun, turned and started
running toward the house. At
this point Cooper raised his fire
and q bullet lodged in Ross
back, passing directly through
the lett breast, passing close to
the heart.
Information of the affair soon
reached the authorities and at
10 o'clock Cooper was brought
to the city and lodged IN Jail,
with his victim being placed in
the hospital. No action will be
taken against Cooper until such
a time as the results of the in
jury can be definitely deter
mined.
Harry Cooper, the owner of the
farm, is one Of the best known
residents of Traill county He
has been absent from the state
since last fall, being in the east.
Ross. the injured man, has
been employed on the Cooper
farm about three years. He is
married and has always render
ed efficient service.

Orchestra Concert

Our citizens should respond heartily
in support of the efforts OF Richmond's
famous Symphony orchestra. 1t is one
of the institutions OF the city that
has given us fame abroad. Here are
number of people, who year in and
year out, have given unselfishly of
their time, without expectation OF 9th
er reward save that which comes from
consciousness of having contributed
of their talent to the general uplift and
culture of the community in which
they live. The reputation this city has
throughout this country for cultur.
along the lines Of music, art and civic
improvement has an undoubted com
mercial value. 1t has attracted a high
and not only made it safe and pros
porous place in which to do business.
so that it has become the panic
Proof City, but it has made it de-
sirable place to build home and edu-
cate the children. Our position in this
respect has become the envy Of every
other city in the state.
The orchestra should be the pride of
every citizen as the character of their
work is unequalled for community
of this size. The concert which they
will be able to present to the public
on next Wednesday evening is of as
high quality as you will 60 to hear in

of it all is that all the performers are
our own Richmond people reared and
trained in our midst.
While the Commercial club is in no
way interested more than any others.
it feels that the symphony orchestra
is a valuable asset to this comnuni-
ty. and should have the hearty sup
port of every citizen, and especially
the business men. Every member OF
the Commercial club should patronlze
this concert to encourage an enter
prise that has given real gain to the
city. The patronage OF these concerts
will determine the future OF this or
chestra and surely We cannot afford
to let it disband for the want OF this
kind of support.
