Very Pleased with WatervilIe Fair

State Dairy Instructor F. S. Adams
was at the Department of Agriculture
Friday afternoon having just returned
from the waterville fair, and of this
years show in that city he spoke very
enthusiastically. The exhibit of stock.
he stated, was not as large as that of
last year although 1t, was of a fine
quality. and on the whole an excellent
exhibit. He considered the exhibit of
horses very good, especially the i'm
ported Perchons exhibited by Harvey
Eaton of Waterville, who possesses a
farm in Cornville The fruit and cege-
table exhibits Mr. Adams spoke of as
being exceptionally good for this early,
and the dairy exhibits he considered
very fair. And the exhibit As whole
he thought was better than the aver
age.
Mr.. Adams states that while on the
grounds he saw practically no cases of
intoxication. The games of chance and
the questionable shows were all elm
mated this year, according to Mr..
Adams report for as he said, "the
officials of the fairs want clean shows
and every year there is an improve
ment In this line"

valuable Additions to Library coIIec-
tons
The State librarian has recently re-
ceived three very valuable additions
to the library collection and these
have been placed in the glass case
near the main entrance to the libra
ry room.
The first of these is a document con-
tanning the autograph of General Hen
ry Knox. This document reads as fol-
lows
"Thomaston. 10, Nov. 1895. Reed
of George Johnson a note of Doctor
ing SO much received by me on us
of said Jamesons land in Warren.
$40.
H. KNOX.
The second Of these additions is e.
wood cut of Lewiston made in the
year 1884. This picture shows Lew
iston as seen then from the residence
of Isaac Haskell prospect HID. The
picture is good sized and shows the
buildings and people plainly, espec-
tally the mills of Lewiston.
A quaint wood cut of the State
House in 1913, taken from "The Amer
lean Magazine of Useful knowledge" of
that time has also been put in the Ii
brary case. Regarding this building
the magazine has the following to say:
This spacious and elegant building
has been finished about two years. 1t
is situated near the Western bank of
the Kennebeck river within the town
of Augusta, and between that village
and Hallowell, on rather an elevated
site from which is an extensive and
pleasant view. Augusta is at the head
of the navisable waters of the Kenne-
beck, except for small crafts without
sails, which ascend to Winslow and
Watevrille eighteen miles above. Au-
gusta is bout forty miles from the
mouth Of the river. The capitol is built
of granite. 1t has a spacious room or
hall for the representatives. and two
of convenient size for the senate and
the executive council. On some ac-
counts it is pronounced superior to any
other building in the New England
states. Augusta is a fourshing place
and place of considerable trade In
this town is an arsenal of the United
States consisting of ten buildings of
stone"

Energy In the Sun.


At the distance of the earth from
It (93,000,00o miles,, the heat energy
yearly expended by the sun is as great
In amount as would be produced by
the burning of sixty-six globes of the
best anthracite coal, each as heavy as
the earth. or 5.346 such globes. each
equal in weight TO the moon. But
the greater part Of this energy is. as
far as we can see, expended upon
empty space because, except where a
planetary body is interposed in the
path Of the rays, there is nothing for
them to act upon. Only about two
thousand-millionth of the suns radiant
energy is intercepted by the earth and
only about one Observation-Disclosures
ty-five-millionth by all the planets to-
gether. This makes the sun look like
a gigantic spendthrift. but If he did not
radiate in every direction he would not
be seen from distant space; he would
not be star among the stars, and who
can say that what he expends to make
himself known and to maintain his
rank in the universe. is not as well
spent as the gratuities that he filings
to his planets.-Garrett p. Serviss In

stated on his return that he would

for the silly questions asked him by
customs officials.
It was on the pier at New York that
his woes came to a climax. "Open
your trunk. please" commanded the
custom house officer. Have you any
thing in there but personal property ?"
he continued

property" countered the lawyer.
