THE LONG, LONG TRAIL.
Manset Boy Walked from New York
to Portsmouth

" PORTSMOUTH.
Raymond Stanley of Manset was
one of three footsore and weary
boys who arrived in Portsmouth, N.
H., last Wednesday, on their way to
Rockland from New York. One of
the other boys was from Lubec, the
other from Rockland.
The three boys shipped on a lum-
Der schooner about month ago.
They arrived in New York after
twenty-five days work on the
schooner. They were paid off, re-
ceiving $12 each. They wanted to
go back to Rockland, but the pas
sage to that place would cost them
SIS. Furthermore, the three youths
had nothing to wear but overalls
and underclothes. They didn't own
pair of shoes among them. With
the money paid them, the boys
bought shoes and started on their
weary walk to Rockland.
A kindly Portsmouth official
treated the trio to breakfast, and
then communicated with the Maine
authorities to see if the boys were
telling the truth. Finding that
they were, he placed them on the
train to Rockland, with their tickets
paid for.

Madge Kennedy Saturday.

Madge Kennedy is having a new
experience as member of the
chorus in her new Goldwyn picture,
Dollars and Sense" at the Dirigo
Saturday. Unlike many successful
actresses, Miss Kennedy did not get
her start in the chorus or even a
minor part. She started right in
playing leads in "Baby Mine" and
"Twin Beds" so the part of a
chorus girl has all the charm of
novelty for her. The story of IDOL
lars and Sense" concerns a plucky
little girl and her struggle to earn
her own living on the stage.-Advt.

CROP CONDITION
IN STATE POOR,
. REPORTS SHOW
Much of Fruit Killed and
Planting Delayed in Many
Sections BY Continued
Dry Weather.

Crops in New Mexico are suffer-
ing from a lack of rain and the
freeze tho night OF April -, ac-
cording to the weekly report of
the state branch Of the United
States department of agriculture,
issued yesterday The survey in
cludes the following points;
!. Growth of all crops have
been retarded by Il week of cold
weather.
2. Freezes on the night OF April
o5 killed much of the fruit left in
the state by the freezes in the
cary part OF the month. 1t IS diff
ficult to determine the extent Of
the damage, but from present re-
ports this state is not to have very
much fruit this season, including
grapes which were killed this
week
8. Freezes did some damage to
the new growth of alfalfa. As a
result of continued cold weather
The first cutting will be delayed
from two to three weeks. Very lit
tie will be cut in the southern part
of the state before June /.
4. Winter wheat in fair condi-
ton at present but is beginning to
show the effects of dry weather.
Some damage to the crop from
continued high winds, which have
been unusually severe during all
of April to date. ...
r. Torrance county reports the
shipping of five cars Of beans dur
ing the past week, which cleans up
their stocks on hand.
6. Flowing ana planting is be-
ing delayed in many parts Of the
dry farm sections of the state
pending rains.
Z. Pastures badly in need of
rain. and the scarcity of grass is
making feeding necessary in most
localities.
S. The lambing and calving
season is now on in the state.
Prospects for a good crop have
been good, but stock of all kind in
many sections is in poor condition,
ana it is feared that losses will be
heavy where the mothers are not
fed and are unprotected from the
coId weather.
Q. Numerous complaints are re-
ceived through our correspondents
concerning low prices of their
products and high freight rates, as
well as high prices on articles pur-
chased for the farms.
