While the fact is not generally
known, 1t is understood that the ma
jority of the motor boats composing
the Augusta Yacht Club fleet had a
close call Sunday from damage or
destruction by fire. Some ten of these
craft were hauled up last fall on the
north shore of the cove below the old
fort and are still on shore awaiting
the spring painting. Last Sunday
some boys set fire to the grass on the
bank above the place where the boats
are and it did not take the wind long
to drive the fire down over the bank
to the boats Capt. Chase of the aux
iliary fishing sloop was working
around his boat and by hard work was
able to stop the fire from getting
among the boats, but not before two
of the smaller craft were scorehed.
The boats on the shore at that point
represent quite an amount of money
and had fire got started among them
the damage done would have been con-
siderable.

Mamie Zero was before the munich

swer sto a charge that she was in
danger of falling into habits of vice
and immortality, the action being taken
in response to many complaints which
had been received regarding the young
girls conduct. She was before the
court Dec. 20, 1918, charged with idle
and disorderly conduct, to which she
pleaded not guilty, the case being con-
tinued from time to time until
Wednesday when the other case COM

being able to send the girl to the In

Prevention of Cruelty to Children, and
that lady WAS successful in finding for
the girl a good home.

Obliged to drag their boats across

that several of the regulars" those
who frequent the pool all the season,
will try to hook a fish and get the top
price of $3.50 a pound, and sometimes
a little more. This makes good
days work if an 1Spounder can be
landed The early fish bring prices
which make them worth trying for,
besides the sport of landing them. The
season will be late in opening in the
weirs on the lower river, as the ice is
not yet out of Bangor harbor. From
present indications there will be no
salmon of any amount in the markets
for two weeks or more.

A billion pounds live weight produce
nearly S00.O00,000 pounds of dressed
meat and lard. This amount would be
sufficient to furnish every family Of
the United States average four and
half persons) about 40 pounds If
there had been no such loss, probably
increasing scarcity of meat would
have been largely prevented.
The losses of swine from disease
are usually heaviest in southern states
and lightest in northern states. Esti-
mates of losses have been kept for
80 years. The states showing the
heaviest average yearly loss in these
80 years are, in their order, Arkansas,
119 per 1000; Louisiana, ITO; Florida,
1O9; the states showing the ligntest
losses are Maine, 10; Wyoming, 10;
New Hampshire, o. In Georgia the
average Is "a, in Alabama and Missis-
sippi, each go; in Texas, &c; whereas,
in New York the average is 26, in
Michigan, "a; in Minnesota, 46; In
North Dakota, 81. and in Washington
and Oregon, e.
The epidemic has abated somewhat
in the past year, as CON pared with the
preceding year, in must southern
states, but has increased greatly In
the northern states Thus, On Florida
the loss has decreased from ITO per
1000 in 1912 TO $50 in. 1918; in Geor-
gJa, from 165 to 90; in Alabama, from
ITO to 100; in Mississippi, from 154

in Missouri. from It's to 90; whereas

In 1913; In Minnesota, from SO to ga:
in Nebraska, from 10 to ITS; in South
Dakota, from IS to 23), and in North
Dakota, from 20 to rs. The tendency
of the three epiiemics appears to
have been, in a general way, to move
as a wave from South and East to
North and West.
