OBITUARY..

The body of Thomas F. Davis of Belfast was
found in Bangor at the mouth of the Kendus-
keag stream early Thursday morning, April
End. In his pocket was found the will of his
mother. Mrs. Bertha Annie Davis, who died in
Belfast June 2, 1913 Robert F. Dunton of
Belfast was the executor of the will and was
notified by the Bangor officials. Davis had
been missing from the steamer Camden since
October and the manner in which he met his
death, and the time of the accident, are matters
of conjecture. Some of his Belfast relatives
think that it may have been in December when
he was drowned, as he had visited Belfast late
in the fall. For about Is years he had been
employed at different times on the Boston and
Bangor steamers. He was born in Belfast in
April. 1882. the son of Emery Davis Of Bangor
and the late Bertha Annie Casey Davis. who
were married in Lewiston, where they were
employed at the time. "Tom," as he was gen.
orally known here, was good natured, pleas

vived by an aunt, Mrs. Mary Casey Leonard
and two cousins, Nellie and William Flanagan

At recent meeting of Harvest Moon
Grange, .Thorndike, "the general opinion
was that we should use more care in our
woodlots." That was wise conclusion.
At the rate that the country is being
denuded of forest growth the time is
coming, if it has not already arrived,
when the woodlot will be the most valu-
able portion of many farms. We are
just beginning to realize that we cannot
raise merchantabIe apples if the trees
are neglected left full of dead wood,
infested by caterpillars and brown-tail
moths, and with suckers growing up
around them. The woodlot calls for the
same care as the orchard or the culti-
waited area of the farm. 1t should be
kept free from underbrush and dead
wood, and judgment should be exercised
in cutting for frewood or the mill. Valu-
able timber often goes into the wood
pile, that would bring good prices for
other purposes. Don't neglect or destroy
your woodlots.

The new city government in ordering
an investigation of the city finances and
city property has done a very necessary
thing for it's own protection as we'll as
performing duty due to the taxpayers.
There is a very general impression that
an excessive valuation has been placed
upon city property and the reports OF the
city treasurer, which are supposed to
5 how the financial condition of the city,
have been withheld until after the annual
election and when published some weeks
or months later IN the city reports have
been seen by very few of the taxpayers.
1t is known, unofficially, that the appro-
priations for the past year were heavily
overdrawn, and the city government at
its meeting April 9th was obliged to au-
thorize loans to the amount of $16,0 900.
