End of Daylight Saving Time Across Nation

A broad report notes the daylight saving law ending with the October 26 clock change. Congress and the Senate approved measures to terminate its operation, with mixed reactions as farmers largely oppose the move despite its beneficial, extended daylight for home tasks and gardening. The piece also covers shore resorts' strong early-season business, expectations of a busy summer, and related weather notes. It mentions peace treaty terms with Germany, coastal Bath board walks needing repair, and sobriety-era debates as July 1 nears. It closes with a diary note of frost in Sagadahoc county on June 22 and a prediction of scarce frosts in July and August.
