There are others who have done the
same thing, but alas, they are far too
few.
Over a year ago, I picked up a
newspaper and my eye was attracted
by an advertisement setting forth the
beauties of Valparaiso, the Vale of
Paradise. At that time, the things to
be done by the company in charge
were put promises. The project had
lust been launched, but the general
truthful tone of the advertisement
held my attention and 1 determined to
investigate.
I got into touch with John B. Per-
rine, general manager of the COM
pany, and he told me the details of
his plan in person. / could hardly
believe that it was true. l do not
blame any man for doubling the
things that are said TO be possible in
Western Florida. l was skepticai in
the extreme but still open to con-
yiction.
With this idea in mind I sent one
of my assistants to Western Florida
look over the project. He returned
and reported to me at once.
"Well, what did you find?" | asked.

In addition, my assistant told me
that he had found il necessary to use
blankets on the bed, although it was
in the summertime. He found none

were prevailing at that time in the

The Rearce Farm.

The fruit and stock farm of Harry
Bearce, Hebron, Is an attractive place at
all seasons of the year and particularly
so when his big orchards are In bloom.
Not for years has his fruit crop looked
so promising at this season of the year.
Two thousand trees are In these or
chards.
Orcharding has always been the prin-
cipal industry at this big farm which is
located on the ridge between Hebron
Academy and Mechanic Falls. The
present proprietor of the place who was
born there succeeded his father, Joseph
Bearce, and an uncle A. NJ. Bearce, who
did much toward starting the numerous
trees which are now in their. hight Of
bearing. Former owners did much In
building stone walls to clear the fields
and nearly all the fences about the place
are built out of them. Along beside
these various orchards were set. Today
there is hardly wall on the place that
IL not lined with fruit trees whose
spreading branches derive much benefit
from the moisture of the rocks.
The principal varieties raised are
Baldwins, Starks and Ben Davis.
These are all good shipping fruit. Mr..
Bearce has sent many barrels acroes the
water direct from bis farm. His biggest
crop packed has been 1400 barrels
This year owing to the heavy bloom
and the fine condition of his trees be
estimtes he will have 1000 barrels.
The care of the trees is the principal
farm Industry and Mr.. Bearce states
that he would not carry on farm that
did not have good orchard on It,.
Three sprayings are given them and
the pruning process requires months
some springs.
The land alongside the trees is cul.
tivated as much as possible being
plo we'd and cultivated until July when a
cover crop Is put on, or it Is left to grass
over the rest Of the season. Millet and
clover are among the cover crops sown.
Mr.. Bsarce is member of the Indian
Head Fruit Association and last year sold
through that organization 1000 barrels
Devoting much of his time to the care
of trees his tillage land is turned to hay
on rotation plan. For silsge this years
he will SOW millet. Some years corn
has been planted. This season only
crops enough for bis home use will be
put in. Quit an acreage has been sowr
to Hungarian millet.

to Miss Norma Green of Kennebunk,
who bad started earnestly In the chicken
business. On one night recently 295
chicks out OF 500 disappeared. The
mark of auto tires In the yard, which
were unexplsinable, led to the suspicion
that some one had made . raid on the
premises. The community was oonsid
erably wrought up and the truth finally
came out when an investigation BY
Deputy Sheriff Ernest L. Jones revealed
that rats had killed and carried off the
chicks, placing them under the barn.
