A story ment da suggestive of early settle- is being sold of a panther that 15 sald to have taken up its home in the stretch of wooded land north of the borough, around what is known ax the Peokham place. As the story goes, this panther is no shambling, decrepit beast, seeking the companionship of civilization in his old age, but a real, active terror of the forest, with glit- tering eyes and a body of marvelous agility, spotted with the markings of the great cat tribe, The size of the animal all depends on_who tells the story and varies in- different descrip- tions from three to elght feet in length. E this stretch of woods not inhebited by any more ferocious animal t! the woodchuck for the past hundred years, who has scen it and where the minute descriptions of its glossy skin, switch- ing tail and cruel claws were obtained are questions shrouded in obscurity, vet to many people the animal really exists in the neighborhood of West- fleld. If this be true, the animal must be a vegetarfan or else exists on flei mice, for not & domestic animal s known to’ have been its prey, nor is any person to be found willing to ad- mit having personally seen it.

JEWETT CITY. First Crop of 1909 Ice Cut Wednesday —Twenty-Two Local Farmers Have Their Own lcehouses—Five Mill Tax Voted—Berard-Desjardins Marriage. Several of the big meat refrigerators in the borough were filled for the fir time with new ice Wednesday. It w cut by Siea Brothers at Fiopeville and was fine and clear, seven inches thick. The supply In the big Dorrville houses has been exhausted for several days. The ice industry has been a_growing one in Jewett City. First the small house was. erected by Ira F. Lewis thirty years ago. This was later doubled. Abcut twenty years ago G. A. Haskell puilt an icehouse of his own on the famous old Beckey Tift proper- ty in connection with his siaughter house a few feet north of the Lewis house. Later, after the introduction of dressed beet made it impracticable to slaughter local beef to & great ex- tent, the whole plant was converted into an icehouse. A few years later Palmér & Wilkerson built a large house. Three years ago Shea Brothers, who now control the ice trade, built another house, further north and of a greater capacity than the Lewis and Haskell houses combined. The four large houses will accommodate & hi vest of about five hundred tons. Th were filled to the roof last year, the | consumption being all in the borough | except that furnished to the Boston milk car every morning—about three tons a day. One winter about fifteen vears since there was no ice cut on the | Ashland pond, as it.did not freeze sufficiznt thickness to support a horse Several farmers got a half crop of ice. | What was most remarkable at tna time was that A. F. Read of Lisbon cut | from his old sawmill pond a full har- | vest of twelve inch ice, This pond (a | small one, not over a_half acre) lic low at the foot of the Read hill and surrounded by hills on all sides except the north. It ffeezes in the fall and is not clear agaln until well into the spring. Wednesday evening this pond had fine ten inch ice which Mr. Read | will harvest at twelve inches. Twenty years ago it was an unheard of thing that a farmer should have an iece of his own, but the building of the Jewett City creamery and other neces- sary conditions caused farmers to bufld, even when a dam had to be made on some brook to make an arti- ficlal pond and today there are twenty- two farmers in town who harvest their own crop.
