Tho Returned Battle Flag®
Framed and display««) in Cho rotunda of the State Canto! at
Augusta. Maine
Written by Monee Owaa; born at Bath, Maine,
July 21. IBM. died at Augusta, Maine. November 11. 18,a He wae a

Nothing but Haga, but aimpie Hagi,
Tattered and torn and hanging in rag*;
And we walk beneath them with careles» tread,
Nor think of the hosts of tbe mighty dead
That have marched beneath them in daya gone by,
With a burning cheek and a kindling eye,
And have batbed their fold» with their life'* young tide,
And ¿lying, bleased them, and blessing, died
Nothing but dug*; yet, methinks, at night
They tell each other their tale of fight;
And dim spectres coms, and their thin arms twine
Hound each standard torn, na they stand in line,
A* tbe word is given—they charge, they form,
And the dim ball ring* with tbe battle’s storm;
And once again, through smoke and strife.
These color* lead to a nation’s life.
Nothing but Hage; yet they’re bathed with tears;
They lell of triumphs, of ho|„*, of fears.
Of a mother’s prayers, of a boy away.
Of a serpent crushed; of the coming day.
Silent they speak, and the tear will start
A» wo stand beneath them with throbbing heart,
And think of those who are ne’er forgot—
Their Hags come home, why come they not?
Nothing but flags; yet we bold our breath,
And gale w’tb awe at those types of death;
Nothing but flags; yet the thought will como,
Tbe heart must pray, though the lips I* dumb;
They are sacred, purs, and we see no stain
On those dear loved flags come home again;
Baptised in blood, our purest, best.
Tattered and torn’ they’re now at rest.

The average weight of the Ore
gon fleece ia 9 pound?, more than
a pound better than the average
weight for the country which was
reported a* 7 to 8 pounds in 1922.
The rational average Waa raiaed
from 1.85 pound* in 1840 lo it*
present size, and is still improving
with careful selection of stock. It
i* significant, says the experi ment
station authorities, to note bow
many band* in Oregon average
ten pound*. Careful culling of
poor fleece bearer* is being con
ducted by different growers with a
view to raise the average weight
still further.
Beehives should not rest directly
upon the ground. Timber* two by
six inches, or bricks, or special
stands may be used for support*, a
stand six inches high being the
best. A sloping board should be
placed from the ground to the en
trance to permit heavily laden
bee* that drop near ihe hive to
reach tho entrance. The hives
should be level from side to side,
but should slant slightly toward
tbe opening. The hive should be
placed so that it will not be nec
essary to pass directly in front of
them while working in the yard.
Notice
There are 150 quart iar* here
that belong to the Children’s Farm
Home at Corvallis which are to be
filled and returned to Shippy »nd
Filer. Anyone wishing to help
them can ask Mrs O. C. Goodrich
at Shippy and Filer’s.
One Hundred and Forty-Ninth Birthday
]
Up from the meadows, rich with corn,
Clear in the oool September morn.
The clustering spires of Frederick stand,
Green-walled by the hill* of Maryland.
Round about them orchards sweep,
Apple and peach tree fruited deep,
Fair as a garden of the I»rd
To tbe eyes of the famished rebel borde,
On that plessant morn of the early fall,
When Lee marched over the mountain wall-
Over the mountains, winding down,
Horse and foot into Frederick town.
Forty flags with their silver stars.
Forty flags with their crimson bare.
Flapped in the morning wind; tbe sun
Of noon looked down and saw not one.
Up rose old Barbara Frietcbie then,
Bowed with four-score years and ten;
Bravest of all in Fredericktown,
She took up tbe flag the men hauled down;
In her attic window tbe flag she set.
To show that one heart was loyal yet.
Up tbe street came the rebel tread,
Stonewall Jackson riding ahead.
Under bis slouched hat, left and right,
He glanced—the old flag met bis sight;
“Halt! ’—the dust-brown ranks stood fast.
“Fire!”—outblaxed the rifle blast;
It shivered tbe window, pane and sash;
It rent the banner with seam and gash.
Quick a* it fell from the broken staff,
Dame Barbara snatched at tbe silken scarf;
She leaned far out on tbe window-sill
And shook it forth with a royal will:
“Shoot, if you must, this old gray bead,
But spare your country’s flag,” she said.
A shade of sadness, a blush of shame
Over the face of the leader came;
Tbe noble nature within him stirred
To life at that woman’s deed and word:
“Who louche* a hair cf yon gray head
Die* like a dog! March on!” he said.
All day long through Frederick street
Sounded the tread of marching feet;
AU day long that free flag toss-d
Over the heads of the rebel host.
Ever it* torn folds ro«e and fell
On the loyal winds that loved it well;
And through tbe hill-gap* sunset light
Shone over it with a warm good-night.
Barbara Frietcbie’* work ia o’er.
And the rebel rides on his raids no more.
Honor to her! and let a tear
Fall, for her sake, on Stonewall’s bier.
Over Barbara Frietcbie’* grave
Flag of freedom and union wave!
Peace and on'er and beauty draw
Round thy symbol of light and law;
And ever the stars above look down
On thy star* below in Fredericktown.
’
John Greenleaf Whittier.

। itig travel on the entire Pacific Coast
’ and particularly over the great Pacific
Highway from Vancouver south through
Seattle, T«com*. Portland, «nd Califor
nia to Mexico, has made its »ppearance

Coast Highway link of this great boule
vard, its beautiful scenery, tine climate
for motoring, biciltiies for entertaining
travelers and recrealioniste.

way between San Francisco and Los
Angeles because of its charm of scenery

George Hessler brought a sample of
his Hex to town Friday tbat was about
three feet tall, but he was honest
enough to say that it was tbe best he
could find in the field of 54» acres.
There is a fine stand on the field «nd a
good yield is expected.
It will be
pulled in three or four weeks or sooner
if tbe hot weather continues, «nd taken
to Salem to the fiax mill. Flax grow
ing is a new business in tbi» neighbor
hood and as it is proving successful it
will probably become * permanent crop.
