FIELD DAY NORTH WALDO POMONA

The annual field meeting of North
Waldo Pomona Grange was held in
Matthews grove, Swan Lake. Tuesday,
August 10Th. The weather was all that
could be desired and by noon fully $50
patrons and their friends had assembled
at this delightful spot on the east shore
of the pretty body of water, where many
from the surrounding towns have sum-
mer cottages.
The forenoon was spent socially, and at
noon a picnic dinner, supplemented by
an abundance of steamed clans, was en-
Joyed by all, and through the generosity
OF Mr.. and Mrs. W. j. Matthews hot
coffee was also served.
Worthy Master A. T. Nickerson acted
as chairman and called the meeting to
order, introducing W. j. Thompson, Mas
ter of the State Grange, who addressed
the audience in his usual interesting and
happy manner.
During the afternoon chorus of votes
sang several selections, mostly of pa
trlotlc nature, and an orchestra of three
pieces rendered fine selections. Alto
gether 1t was red-letter day in the an
nails of North Waldo Pomona and ex-
presslons of appreciation were heard on
every hand for the committee of arrange
ments and for Mr.. and Mrs. Mathews,
who did so much to make the affair a
success. State Master Thompson and
all VINO contributed to the success of the
meeting were accorded the customary
vote of thanks. CLARA D. YORK.

AROOSTOOK POTATOES.

If ever thing was in demand, pota-
toes are in demand in Aroostook county
this fall. The price shows it plainly
enough. The railroad strike, having
cleared up and off all right, buying be-
gan in earnest again Saturday and con-
tinued on Monday. On Monday 81. SO
a barrel was a common price, while the
figures on one load ran up to So IA. How
is that for Sept. 4th? Its equal was
never before known. The price on Tues
day was 81 30 to 81. As in the forenoon.
mostly on account of the shortage in
cars. The car shortage is not felt very
badly at the competing points, but is
pretty severe at the small sidings.
Aroostook s stock was never finer, clean
err, brighter or more satisfactory than
now. There is no rot whatever, very lit
tie scab, and the quality in general is
Just right for table use. Many extra
good yields are reported, while of course
! medium ones are more nearly the rule
Many fields, however, show pretty light,
owing to shortage of fertilizer, poor cul-
tivation or something of the kind. At
the going prices of course big part of
the crop will be sold from the fields, but
no one need fear that a let of it will not
be stored. There will be potatoes enough
in Aroostook to go all the winter and
spring, no matter what the price is; that
is, they will not be sold until late in the
spring, as usual Fort Fairfield Review.

THE WIDOWS PENSION BILL
1t Raises Rate From SIP to $50 and Re-

poll

IL NdISeS Ndte FROM SIZ &c SZU and Re
stores. Remarked Willows to the Pension
Rolls.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 7. A bill giving
to widows of officers or enlisted men who
served in the Civil or Mexican wars or
the war of 1872, and who have reached
the age of 70 years, pensions of 500 a
month instead of the present SIP month,
was passed by the Senate Thursday. 1t
already was passed by the House.
This measure, which is known as the
Ashbrook bill, is for the relief of Civil
war veterans widows and has four
principal provisions, which will admit
many worthy women to the roll who are
now barred through some legal technlca-
lily. The measure provides that widows
who were wives while their husbands
were in the Civil war, will receive $40 a
month. Widows of veterans of the Civil
war who were not wives until after the
Civil war, but who are 70 years of age,
will get 500 per month. Widows who
lost their pensions upon re-marriage will
be restored to the roll, if again widowed
