And what are you doing? You allow your health to run down more and more; therefore, you can- not work and earn what you used to. Do you see the point? You are draw- ing on your capital—which is your health—by allowing it to run down, and the interest (your working capacity) is steadily growing smaller.

Carlson nabbed his man on Main | street. Search at the police station revealed only $1.93 on the prisoner, but further investigation revealed $8 in a pocketbook in the armiless sleeve of Ryan’s coat. Officer Lyon who as- sisted ir the search gave corrobora- tive evidence. Ryan claimed owner- ship of the money, stating that his brother who is employed in a buckle shop in Berlin took up a collection vesterday which netted about $14, and sales of court and | other articles brought his up to nearly $18. When questioned as to where the remainder of the money was, Ryan said that he befriended his brothe in the afterncon, and spent the remainder for liquors. Judge Meskill ordered that a 30 sentence, imposed December 28, on which judgment was suspended, was ordered enforced and in addi- tional 30 was meted out_on the vag- ran and 60 days for the theft charges preferred today.

Mangan, entered a plea of not. guilty, and Schlafer, who had no counsel, pleaded likewise. The trouble which started the men toward court notoriety occurred yes at Schlafer's home at 19 Put- sireet. Testimony presented showed that a horse trade was at the Lottom of the whole affair. Accord- ing to the defendants, the other fel- low was the cause of the trouble. Schlafer said that he met Flood ves- terday and agreed to buy a horse the latter has in his possession. Schlafer wanted §60 for the animal and Flood, to bind the bargain, paid $30 at once. The men then repaired to a cafe where some words arose over a pre- vious {ransaction. Flood left the place and went to Schlafer's barn to get his horse, closely followed by the | former.

The explana- tion was made officially in queries as to what happens time price-fixing when the war tries board ceases to function at mid- night tonight. The attitude of the department of justice as outlined by Attorney Gener- al Gregory, is that the anti-trust laws, | still eftective, will be enforced vigor- | ously by the department They have been in full effect throughout the war, but the department has not re- garded the action of irdustry in main- taining prices fixed by the govern- ment as contrary to law. Other department of justice offi- cials, who heretofore have had charge of prosecutions punder the’anti-trust jaws declared that when the war ir dustries hoard ceases to exercise con- trol of prices January 1, any act of a group of business men tending to pre- | vent free play of competition will bo | examined in the light the law. Tt | is felt that although an immediate ef- | fect of price agreements might be temporarily to keep prices down and thereby benefit consumers, this result might soon change an dthat coase- quently the situation is full of dan- ger. There is no provision in the law for consideration of whether the effect of the suppression of competi- tion might be “benevolent’ It was said that so far the depart- ment had not given particular atten- tion to the steel industry, which sub- mitted to the war industries board a revised list of prices to he effective after January 1.

A. Sprague and Supervisor Albin Holmquist. The Tecord is a most pleasing one to the gardens committee and few cities of the size of New Britain liave been able to show equal rvesults. Feeling that there will be a need of conservation equally as much in the 1919 as in 1918, the chamber is making plans for the early appointment of s committee. The new committee will announced in January. lows Work Done During Season. The New Britain Gardens Commit- tee began their work March 15, 1918. About 1,400 applications for gardens were received at the rate of 40 per day until the 15th of April when the time sei for recciving applications e pired. In the meantime 160 acres of land were secured for cultivation. Tt was the second week in April before the soil was in proper condition for plowing and almost the last week in June when the land was plowed, har- rowed and plotted out. During this there was much work in the office in allotting the plots, taking in payments, giving information, etc. I believe that much more, and more efficient work could be accomplished if only the work had been started earlier in the season Instructions in planting were given to individuals as well as to The gardens visited during the entire scason with practical instruc- tion to all those in need. Lectures were given to the Junior Food Army. There are 450 Junior Food members in New Britain. Much interest was shown by the hoys and girls. The chairman of the Junior Food Army expects at least 1,000 members in 1919. Personally 1 have much faith in the Junior Food Army. 1 believe that much work could be accomplis ed in this line by creating an inter that will tend to promote agriculture. Combating insects and diseases re- quired probably the largest part ot the work. All gardeners were warned s00n any insects or diseases made their first appear- ance. Articles were printed ‘in the newspapers as to prevention, remedy, ete. Spraving materials were pre- pared at their- zardens and sold cost. Because of all these efforts many gardens were saved and made successful. The gardeners as a whole this energetic and interest: as keeping their gardens free and well cultivated T can From last vear's ex have learned the folly of neglecting the gardens and are more ready to receive instruction to make their garden more of a success. From*the experience gained during my work in connection with the gar- dens T have noticed that probably ver, cent. of the eners who were fortunate in obtaining aad planting their gardens early were the most successful. Since of the garden pests do ake {heir pearance until the s are ne half formed, it is important have the gardens plowed riy vear, thus allowing the plants to practically matured before the dan- zer period. In 1919 will undoubt- edly need 1,500 gardens and success will depend largely on how early the movement will be started. The exhibit at the State highly commended.

The garden movement has re- i | ceived the hearty support of the eity | during the past year and has received | an appropriation $3,000 for the | furtherance o the work. The work was carrled out through the agency of a gardens committee headed by Chairman Herbert V. Camp and Superintendent Holmquist of Kensing- ton. The increase of acreage in 1918 over the number in 1917 was 62 acres while the committee anticipates a still further increase in 1919 and is plan- ning to use 200 acres of land. { 1,250 Individual Gardens. The number of individual gardens was 1,250 with un average size of 50x100 and of this land, 67 per cent. was devoted to the cultivation of pota- toes. The value of the bean crop was | $47,375. 'The local factories have co- operated with the gardens commit- tee in this work, and six of them have provided plots of land for their em- ployes. $23,600 worth of potatoes were raised on these lands. Nearly 5.000 back-yard gardens were planted during the vear, averaging in size 30x45 and $42,930 worth of produce was raised. The committee found considerable difficulty in combating the plant lice, potato beetles, and imported cabbage worm, which insects caused much damage to potatoes, turnips, cabbage, peas, tomatoes and cucumbers. The valuation of the total crop in 1917 was $91,248.95 while in 1918 this total jumped to $1,115,505 FARM WORK IS BEST FOR GROWING BOY/ U. S. Boys' Working Reserve !
