POTATO NOTES

Pressure Isle Herald March 23-Po-
tatoes are quoted at $2.75, and proba-
bly, would be moving quite freely but
for the fact that there is car short
age which is increasing in acuteness.
1t may not be out of place to recall
that this condition OF things was a
forecast of the early part Of the season
Aroostook Republican, March GAS
the days drift by into weeks and the
weeks are recorded as months the sea-
son advances apace. spring is here and
So a barrel mark for potatoes does not
seem to be in sight. The expectations
Of many that that figure will once>more
prevail are gradually fading away
True, it is the unexpected that some
times happens. and in the potato bust
ness there are as many surprises as in
any other line, and the hoped for offers
may yet reappear; but the real opti-
mism on the subject is not so strong
as a month ago. 1t is estimated by
those who are supposed to be in touch
with such matters that about one fifth
of the 1915 crop still remains in the
county.
The B. & A. Railroad delivered 1884,
434 bushels Of potatoes to Northern
Maine Junction from March II to Is in

Gilbert E. Newkirk of Bridgeton, N. j.,

who is well known in this place, stat
ing that the planting Of potatoes in his

Cured His RUPTURE

I was badly ruptured while lifting a
trunk several years ago. Doctors said
my only hope Of cure was an operation.
.Trusses did me no good. Finally got
hold of something that quickly and COM
the rupture has never returned, although
am doing hard work as a carpenter.
There was no operation, no lost time, no
trouble. I have nothing to sell, but will
give full information about how you may
find complete cure without operation,
II you write to me. Eugene NJ. Pullen.
CARPENTER. 4s6 B Marcellus Avenue,
.Manasquan, N. j. Better cut out this
notice and show 1t to any others who
are ruptured-you may save a life or at
least stop the misery Of rupture and the
worry and danger Of an operation.

Family of Hymn Writers.

The Wesley family all wrote hymns,
including the father, three sons and a
daughter, though the two brothers,
John and Charles, wrote the most OF
all. The first volume of hymns by
John Wesley was published in 1873,
and the first one by Charles Wesley
in 1889. Following these at inter
walls, John Wesley published five more
volumes separately. Charles Wesley
published So volumes separately, and
the two brothers published several
volumes together. Most Of the vol
umes were small, some of them con,
tanning less than twenty hymns, but
90 of them contained more than one
hundred hymns each, and one of
Charles Wesley's volumes contained
ass. Charles Wesley is said to have
written altogether $500 hymns. His
volume of hymns for children, pub.
lished in 1863, contained 5000. The
sister, Mehitabel Wesley, who, by an
unhappy marriage, became Mrs,
Wright, wrote some hymns, but did
not publish any.
