EAST SIDERS
HAVE KICK COMING

People living the east side are
complaining ABOUT the city dump null
sance that is maintained by the city on
Columbia avenue and the river. Here
are piled up hundreds of loads of alley
pickings, which are being burned by a
slow fire, the smoke of which causes the
nuisance to the residents in the neigh
borhood. AS far the smoke is car
ried 1t is extremely offensive to the
smell. 1t all depending on the wind
which section of the city suffers. The
dump is furthermore fly breeder and
in the summer time the fly pest is as
bad as the smoke nuisance.
The east side people are looking to
| the board of health, the street and alley
departing nt and their representatives in
| the council to abate the nuisance.

Before planting any large quantity of
small grain, grass or clover seed, send a
sample to the State experiment station for
examination. The seeds of many noxions
plants are to be found in impure and un-
reliable seeds. 1t is far easier to do this
than to eradicate some pestiferous weed
that obtains firm foothold ON your farm.
Early rhubarb can be grown in any or
binary cellar, thus; When thaw comes,
dig up one or more rhubarb clumps from
the garden, with considerable soil cling
ing to the roots, and put them on the eel
lar floor; the warmer the cellar, the
sooner growth will begin. Give them a
little water occasionally, and await re-
suits. Light does not seem 70 be neces-
sary, for the stalks grow all right in even
dark place.

Dear Aunt MaSee:
The weather here In New Bedford. on this
morning, july g. is little warm and sticky.
have sauntered now for an hour and looked
at old houses and shops on marrow streets
near shore, and have walked out on three Of
the eitys piers. leaned upon a fence rail
that might ease up my tired feet little, and
watched three masted schooner unloading
coal by steam. / think this is great improve
ment over the old method, with baskets car
ried by negroes and coolies.
On this pier, and others. too, have seen
many casks; some allied with oil just landed
from whalers; others empty ready to be taken
aboard of vessels going ont Some casks
were being repaired. I have watched a
Portuguese cooper as he fitted new slaves to
take the place Of broken ones. have seen
him trim the edges of slaves with plane
iointerl eight feet long. upside down. run
ming the slaves over the plane. one by one.
instead of the plane over the slaves. This
was something that l had never seen done
before. although had heard about it.
And this makes meshink OF how we brothers
and sisters. the world over. differ in bringing
about practically the same results. SO why
should we quarrel, one with another, over
methods and forms. which in the end answer
one and the same purposeg
Tied to this pier is an old whaler, one of the
old model and of about $50 tons. AS little as
/ know about vessels. / iod no difficulty in
determining that she is very old boat that
has seen much hard service. But there she
now lies chained to this pier. see no rope
bawser on her. She is partly dismantled.
Two of her topmasts have been sent down:
all her sails unbent and taken to some loft;
and her idle yards hang to gray masts.
/ asked of an old sailor 1 met: "Do you
think this old whaler win ever make another
cruiser" He answered.: 81 think she viii be
new-bottomed and still go whaling" She was
to me very interesting ship 20 look over, for
Ihad never before seen an oid-time whaler.
The whaling business is stin carried on,
fitting out vessels at New Bedford, but in a
small way compared with what it was fifty
years ago; and fishing for whales is chiefly
in Atlantic waters now, by vessels sailing
from this port.
AS ii Is near noon and the sun very hot, ]
slowly make my way 10 New Bedford's beau
tiful public library building. where know |
shall find rest and be inter crested in what see
Someone has told me that this three story,

should think it might have. There is much
mahogony and marble in its interior finish
and furniture.
have spent little time with books of the
early history of New Bedford, and have read
in biographies sketches Of her first men, men
most active in her enterprises. Some Of the
most interesting things to me are pictures Of
whaling scenes in the Arctic and North Pa
cifc oceans, which hang ON walls Of one Of
the large rooms Of this library. SUSAN.

She Was LOYAL.

During the war between the states, Mrs
", a high spirited Virginia young lady
whose father, Confederate soldier, had
been taken prisoner by the Union forces,
was DESTROYS of obtaining a pass which
would enable her to visit him.
Francis P. Blair agreed TO obtain an aa-
dience with the President, but warned his
young and rather impulsive friend to be
prudent and not betray her sympathy for
the South. They were ushered into the
presence of Mr.. Lincoln, and the object
for which they had come was stated. The
tail, grave man bent down TO the little
maiden, and, looking searchingiy into her
face, said:
"You are loyal, OF course?"
Her bright eyes flashed. She hesitsted
a moment, and then, with face eloquent
with emotion and honest as his own, she
replied:
"Yes, loyal to the hearts core-to vir-
ginis!"
Mr.. Lincoln kept his intent gaze upon
her moment longer, and then went to
his desk, wrote line or two and handed
her the paper. With a bow the interview
ended. When they had left the room, Mr.
Blair began ~ upbraid his young friend
for her impetuosity.
"Now you have done tit" he said
Didn't warn you to be very careful? You
have only yourself to blame" Miss n.
made no reply. but opened the paper. 1t
contained these words:

BENTON La, April 8, 1912.
Dear Aunt MadSe and MHtHaEs:
You will see by the heading OF this letter
heb is In the South, and she promised Aunt
Madge last Christmas she would write soon.
But guess she was too busy sewing.
/ sold out all but one house and lot at Twin
Fails, Idaho, last October. but didn't come
South until Feb. 81. didn't get things sxed
up at Twin Fails until about Feb. 10; then had
some sewing to finish, then left or turned
away a mouths sewing.
Now, don't know Of much to write. We
have been having a lot of rain, but our alfalfa
win be ready to cut in about ten days. Every
thing else is looking green. The peach trees
were a handsome sight when in nloom. "
looks now as IL we might have a big crop Of
peaches. We have about sixty five pigs run
ming round, but have only one chicken
Matched oat yet. Have several hens setting.
We have our housekeeping about done.
Have painted four rooms. The houses are all
sealed here. Now, you who have plastered
walls and ceilings, just think of the wood
work to clean, which never had even been
primed over with little oil. and large rooms
at that. Well, while it was raining we
cleaned house, and the rooms are ten or
twelve feet high. Lee cleaned overhead, and
be helped my son-in-law paint, so we are
looking quite nice for the South.
am busy getting some sewing done up so
when hot weather gets here not 10 have to
sew then. The last of June and first Of July
we will put up peaches. Am in hopes TO put
up some 800 OTIS. We will have lot of hay
this year. My son-in-iaw has done some big
work in getting this old cotton ranch into hay
and grain land Our pastures look better
than some of the fields around us. We have
$40 acres-rather larger farm than we need.
Could sell off several farms. then have enough
left for us. We have quite lot of heavy
timber-land.
There are forty acres in peaches, $50 acres in
hay, sixty acres in oats. besides what we have
ready for corn. Then we have a large hog
pasture which is just coming up to oats and
wheat Then we have watermelons Will
have, if nothing happens, nearly half an acre.
We have peas growing fine. Would have had
green peas now, but it has been cold and wet
this spring, SO think we are doing ine
What hay we win have to sell this year will
be quite an income. Am in hopes to get five
or six tons to the acre. Hay here now is
worth s25 to $50 per ton, bat will be less as
