But that is not the reason for this

that if those hearing the program

would receive an IS carat solid gold

only condition was that each mes

been the lucky contestant to receive
the pen for Maine.
This is not the first time. however,
that he has drawn a prize for clever
work of this sort. About three
weeks ago the same hotel ANNOUNCE

defendants commended tended to
show that the chemicals contained
nothing deleterious. We think
it a reasonable deduction, that IL SO
pounds of borax was sufficiently in
furious to practically kill potato
crop in one case it must necessarily
follow that the same quantity would
do some injury in any other similar
case. The defendants offered to
show the converse of this to be true.
And they undertook to do this
by offering evidence Of actual re-
suits from the use of the same kind
of fertilizer that was used by the
plaintiff. We think the logical effect
of the evidence offered tended to re-
but the plaintiffs contention. :.
We think the evidence should have
been admitted"
Mixture Not Dsistsrious
The opinion answers the plain
tiff's contention that the inadmissi-
bility of this evidence has already
been determined in Fertilizer Works
vs. Logan. 116 Me. 33, by pointing out
that in that case the Court stated
that Had there been a guaranty
of suitableness. or of results. the
evidence would undoubtedly be ad-
Missile to be considered with the
other facts" and by calling attention
to the fact that in the case of Rogers
VS. Kendall that issue was distinctly
raised by the declaration which al
legged that the goods were not suit
able for mixture as fertilizer to be
used in fertilizing land" etc.
the opinion concludes: I'VE are Of
