mat the orchardists of the STATE
OF Maine shall have an ADEQUATE
knowledge Of the results of the frs.
so-called Carlton Contest, and the
conditions that shall govern the sec
ono contest. the Bureau of Horticul-
ture has decided to issue a bulletin
winch Shall contain all of the details
and explanations" is statement
made by State Horticulturist A. X.
Gardner and Assistant HORTICULTURE.
II. p. Sweetser, in the Gregory Cir
cu!ar No. 2, which has just been IS
sued by the State Department Of
Agriculture
The text of the law providing for
the orchard contest and the premiums
Is given at the first of the bulletin at
ter which a long statment is made
concerning the results of the first con-
test, and the following conclusion is
reached:
The contest demonstrates fully the
adaptability Of Maine in its different
counties to the production of the vari-
Gus varieties OF apples and to their
early and profitable bearing.
Careful attention to proper orchard
practices was much greater factor
with the successful contestants than
favorable natural conditions.
The contest has done much to adj
vance the standard of orcharding in
the State and growers who We're not
contested have benefited naturally.
The contest should be continued for
Better Fruit for Maine"
The orchards for the second contest
are to be set in the spring of 1916 and
judges in the fall of 1919 and for this
contest in addition to the regular pre-
miums offered a number of extr,
prizes have recently been offered by
various nurserymen.
At the close of the bulletin the
regulations which govern the con-
tests are printed, as well as systems
to be observed in setting out the trees,
and a copy of the score card for the
Carlton Orchards.
The judges of the last contest were:
A. X. Gardner (chairman), Augusta,
W. H. Conant, Buckfeld; II. P. Sweet

the stake was too great to risk, and she
bitterly consented to Wilkerson's has
tily outlined plan Of hiding Ruth away
somewhere in Sing Wah's precincts I'M
til they could once more get their plans
into working order
Before she would leave the place
she must indeed see Sing Wah himself.
''Will the girl be safe here?" she de-
manded.
The Chinese looked at her flushed
and passionate beauty in silence until
she repeated her question. Then he
said quietly and in his own exquisite
" modulated English: You need have
little fear. The servants are honest
and discreet. And"-he let his eyes
meet hers fully-''I think it is possible
that she is safer now than she has
been for some time Good night, mad

pulp and paper making course. The
machinery for this has arrived and will
be set up at once. A digestor made by
the Portland Co. is nearly ready for
use. In another room the foundations
are ready for the boiler and beater to
be installed this week. Practically the
entire process Of pulp and paper max

equipment is complete. The equipment
of the course in assaying Is also in
stalled in the basement.
Brick and concrete are%he chief ma

feature is the abundance of large win

and is lighted by generously big win
dows at the level Of the ground.

they drank tea in little room in the

as smart as l am. But you are too
hungry. You cannot resist your appe-

Wilkerson nodded. II guess you're

any pride. You talk pidgin English to

speaking the perfect English you

ACCIDENTAL SHOT
BLINDS SMALL BOY

Granville, NJ D., April 29.-Les-
ter, the little son Of W. Peck, who
resides north of town, was the
victim of a sad accident. He and
his two brothers were at home
alone at the time and were play
ing with an old revolver which
they believed was unloaded There
happened to be load in the gun,
however, and in some manner it
was discharged and the bullet en-
tered the little boys head at the
right temple and passed through,
lodging somewhere near the left
side.98S%S.i5.2 ~>.
He was rushed to a hospital at
Minot where it was found that the
bullet had cut the optic nerve, rem

getting along nicely and his chanc-
es for recovery are very good.
With the course taken by the
bullet consider it miraculous that
he was not Killed outright. -

started inquiries and soon ascer-
tanned that last Thursday a man

the man and horse, which in the

other party, August Otto. Sheriff
Haugan then returned to town and
notified the Ward county officials

Lidgerwood, N. D., April 20
The village Of Geneseo was some
what excited when a postal in
spector arrived and secured a
search warrant to search the Great
Northern depot Not many were
aware Cf what was up until it de
veloped that number Of COM
plants had been made to the pos
tai authorities that parcel post
packages had turned up missing
and it was found by the postoffice
inspector that the packages were
put off at the depot and did not
reach the postofIice. This led to
suspicion that the agent. c. B.
Robinson, was the one who had
appropriated the missing packages
and the depot was searched and a
part of the missing goods found.
He was held under a small bond
in the search warrant proceeding
until the U. S. marshal arrived
from Fargo and took him into
custody to answer the charge of
robbing the mail sacks.
From the reports received it ap-
pears that the evidence in the case
is conclusive and the sympathy of
the community is expressed for his
wife and their amall child.

FARMER AZ ATTACKED. :: J! ]. ].
BY: MADIDENED SOW

Larimore, N. D., April 29.-Alex
Sweeney, aged SIS, farmer .resid-
ing seven miles southeast of here
was severely injured Saturday
when he was charged by brood
sow in his own farm yard.
The maddened animal knocked
Sweeney down, fracturing his
right hip, and then attacked the
PROSTATE man with her teeth, tear
ing his arm and shoulder to a
considerable extent.
His cries for help brought as
sistance and the SOW was driven
off.
AS Sweeney's right leg was am
putated at the knee year ago,
and he has been in a poor condi-
ton Of health ever since, it lis
feared that the consequences of
his injuries may be serious.
