Farmhouse Burns
on POWnal Road

Brunswick, April o5-The farm
house Of John Spear, on the Pownal
road, about a mile from the Quaker
meeting house, was burned to the
ground at an early hour this morning,
the fire starting from defective
chimney. Mrs. Spear has been i'll for
the past seven weeks and recently her
daughter, Mrs. Daniel Hartley, and
baby arrived from Detroit, Mich, to
assist in caring for the house. 1t
was after II o'clock when Mr.. Spear
retired and at that time everything
was all right. When Mrs. Hartley
was awakened by the smoke it was
found that the kitchen was in flames.
The fire spread so rapidly that the
family was forced to leave the house
in their night clothes, and they saved
only such things as they could pick
up as they ran for safety. Mr.. Spear
was quite badly burned in trying to
rescue articles of value. Loss will

In an interview with a Journal
man, Philip r. Park Of Jefferson
Farms recently spoke Of the beef
raising opportunities in Maine. He
said:
In the old days of horse drawn milk
wagons, the supplies came from the
immediate vicinity of the cities and
towns, and such raisers got greater
milk production than they could from
beef.
Today conditions have changed.
Milk comes to New York City from
a radius of more than a thousand
miles, and with the advent Of dried
milk the entire country is compet-
ing with the suburban producer, and
prices are rejecting this competition.
Hundreds of farms are producing
milk today at no profit that could
make money with beef. Milk produc-
tiQn entails feeding concentrates that
cannot be produced on the farm, and
this means teams busy teaming milk
to market and concentrates or dairy
rations home again. Beef production
properly conducted should consume
home produced grain,-corn, oats and
barley,-thereby not only keeping
more money on the farm that goes
to the local grain man with the
dairy farmer, but also saving many
hours time on the road delivering
milk and cream to the local station.
The beef cattle can be driven to
market at the station once in six
months.

Lines Dedicated to Borers

The following Lines Dedicated to
Borers" were written about the year
1885 by the late Lugan L. Moody. a
man much interested in farming and
especially in orchardng. He was the
owner of fine young orchard which
he took excellent care of and was es-
pccially particular about the borers.
At one time he had collection of bor-
crs in all stages of development and
he possessed all sorts of Instruments
for destroying them.
If / were asked the greatest pest
And to pick it out from all the rest
Id proclaim il lour From East to West,
BorCrs.
What were they made for? someone
cries:

No! They're curse a s | surmise,
These Borcrs.
Why they're sent here l don't know,
To torment bipeds here below
And gnaw their trees SO they can't

Why is it, Borers?

TO gnaw our trees till they're content
And all is for our hest good meant.

WHAT KIND OF SOAP
FOR A WASHING
MACHINE

l always think Of soap as the
partner of a washer. Some soaps
are lazy partners, others do their
full share Of the work.
Soaps that do not dissolve
completely, that give light,
frothy suds without substance,
make a washing machine do
more than it's share of the
work.
Rinse, the new kind Of soap,
helps the washer do its best work.
Every grain is so pure and per-
fectly balanced that it loosens all
the dirt. 1t prepares the way for
the efficient operation of the
machine. When you use Rinse
you don't have to rub at all.
Whether they have a washing
machine or not, women the
country over are using Rlnso IN
place of bar soap at every step
of the family wash.
