(ustry to Its Activities |+ ANIMALS ARE VALUABLE Farm is on East Knoll Near Silver Lane—32 Children to Graduate June 22—Mrs. Alsop Will Speak | in Eensington Tomorrow. With the location in Berlin of a farm for the raising of silver foxes, the town has added one more indus- try to its growing list. The farm will be located near Silver Lake on what is known at East Knoll and a large run is being constructed. It is un- derstood that the farm will com- mence operations next month. That such a farm will locate in Berlin is not generally known and the fact that it will be devoted to the raising of the valuable silver fox was learned today. It will be conducted by a syndicate which makes a busi- ness of establishing such farms throughout the country where foxes are raised for the fur trade. Tt is understood that the syndi- cate does not own the foxes, but that it undertakes to care for the animals owned by fur companies at a certaln price per year. In the center of the run will be an observation tower, more than 75 feet high, _for the convenience of watchmen whose duty it will be to survey the surrounding country and to prevent the animals from escap- ing. A guard will be maintained at all times and powerful searchlights ‘will be installed on the tower. These will sweep the surrounding land through the dark hours. The location is an ideal one for ~such a farm and the residents will be taken care of. Their valus runs from $1,000 to $1,600 a pair. Removal of the Ruins It is expected that work will be started in the near future toward re- moving from the corner of Berlin street and Farmington avenue the blackened ruins of the building which once housed the Berlin post office, the Cole Grocery store and a living apartment. The state has pur- chased the property, as is known and it is expected that the corner will be considerably improved. First Selectman Carter, upon re- ceipt of several complaints from residents regarding the structure, communicated with state officlals in an effort to hasten the work of re- moving the unsightly ruins. He was informed that the bullding would be razed in due course of time. It ap- peared to be his belief today that something will be done about the matter in the near future, by the state. | i Four Cars in Crash Louis Segler of 127 North street, New Britain, was arrested by Con- stable Frank Brown on a charge of reckless driving, after a car driven by him struck and damaged three other machines on the Berlin turn- pike near the old Colonel Jarvis property at about 11:45 o'clock last night. Two men who were riding with Segler, John Dawey of 316 Main strcet and Edward Bisiewicz of 102 Tremont street, were severely cut about the legs and they were treated for their injuries by Dr. Thomas C. Hodgson. Segler was driving north on the turnpike and the other cars were proceeding south. The first car he struck was driven by Willlam Mec- Velgh of 129 Atkins atreet, Merlden.

The next car Segler's machine came in contact with was owned by Balley & Olm- stead of Middletown and was driven by a man believed to be Olmstead. ‘That car was damaged. The third car was operated by John D. Lassen of 40 Ferry street, New Haven, and that one suffered more than any of the others, belng so badly damaged that it had to be towed away. The three accidents happened quick succession and it is believed that the New Britain man’s machine struck the first one, caroming off to the second and then on to the third. His machine was totally wrecked and it is believed by Constable Brown-that it was damaged beyond repair. Segler was unable to account for his action and he was arrested by the officer. He will appear before Judge George Griswold in the Ber- lin town court next Tuesday even- ing. on to Mrs. Alsop A reception to Mrs. J. W. Alsop, president to the Republican Wom- en's Assoclation of the fifth district, will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at the home of Mrs. ! Honry Hooker of Kensington.

The milk ordinance proposed by Health Officer Dr. George F. Cook was adopted last night at a meet- ing of a committee of milk dealers fn his office and will go into ef- fect July 1. It covers the sale of | all milk, cream, skimmilk, end but- termilk within the limits of Plain- | ville and applies to dairymen, deal- | ers, handlers, stores, and soda fountains. Every farmer who sells milk must obtain a per- mit, even if he has only one cow; further, all cows must be tuberculin tested whether or not their milk is sold. All who handle milk must obtain licenses to do so. Applications must be filed with Dr. €ook, who will in- vestigate the conditions—such as source of supply—and, it he finds them satisfactory, will grant per- mission. The permit is then to be obtained at the office of the town clerk. The fee is purely nominal, being only 50 cents; plates to go on dealers’ wagons will be required and will cost a slight additional sum, as ¥yet undetermined. Plates will not be required for storekeepers. Each applicant must state all sources from which he obtains his supply. All milk must be from tu- berculin tested cows exccpt that which s treated by pasteurization. Each violation will result in a fine of $10 to $50 or, for a subsequent offense,the same fine or 30 days’ im- prisonment or both. ‘The code is onc approved by the state. It was accepted by the milk- men's committee consisting of Jerry |Main street, Neal labsence restaurants, | m. No®constable has as yet been| assigned to the post.

U. C. on Flash Signal at Doolittle's PEQUABUCK T0 BE CLEAN Ordinance Bans Dumping Refuse in River—I. O. O. F. to Hold Memo- rial Services — Lilley-Loughlin Dispute Brought To End. A hearing of particular interest to Bristol people is to be held before the public utilitles commission on June 13, at which time the applica- tion of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad company to install an electric flashlight highway signal at Doolittle's crossing will be discussed. In the event permission is granted the railroad company to install the signal, the crossing watchmen now employed will be re- moved. Doolittle’s crossing in past years has been the scene of many acci- dents and several fatalities. There are five streets which meet practi- cally on the crossing, Maple street, Burlington avenue, Farmington ave- nue, North street and Judd strect. At one time there were two separatc crossing but with a view to reduc- ing the element of danger, the two crossings were merged into one. There are no gates in use, a flagman using a stop sign to warn people of approaching trains. The view to trains approaching {from the west is obstructed, the tracks taking a sharp curve after leaving the rock cut just west of the Sessions Foundry Co. siding and the view of trains approaching the crossing from the east is also ob- scured, particularly to autoists pre ceeding easterly on North street. The proposed plan to install the clectric signal device was submitted to the city council several months ago by representatives of the rail- [road company and was approved. It was pointed out at that time that the cost of installing the new device would be several thousand dollars. Mayor John F. Wade will repre- sent the city of Bristol at the hear- ling Monday and it is not belicved that there will bo any objection to {the proposed arrangement.

Lilley-Loughlin Dispute Settled Tho dispute between Martin Loughlin and the George L. Lilley Co. over passway rights in the rear of the Loughlin property on Main street has been gettled and an in- junction brought by the Lilley in- terests to stop an addition to the Loughlin building has been released. The old deeds on file in the office of the city clerk called for a pass- way across the rear of the Loughlin property to the Gridley House prop- erty, owned by the George L. Lilley Co. of sufficient width for teams to pass and repa to and from the Noboy seemed to know dered a sufficient width and when Mr. Loughlin leased his building to the 8. S. Kresge com- pany, they started to dig up the rear to enlarge the building. The George L. Lilley company claimed that the right of way should be 30 feet in width so that the excavation really encroached on a portion of the claimed right of way. The in- junction was then placed, stopping the work Numerous confecrences were held between Mr, Loughlin and the George L. Lill Co. and their re- ctive attorn: and family the Lilley Co. submitted an agreement to Mr. Loughlin, whereby he would put up a certified check for $20,000 for making the passway 10 feet in width and that Mr. Loughlin would also build a retaining wall, pave the take re of the surface and do other worl Mr. Loughlin objected that to go through court proceedings would permit the injunction to remain for some time longer, in which case his lease with the 8. 8. Kresge people would be- come null and void. Had the lease heen cancelled, Mr. Loughlin believed he would have been faced with a sult for damages for work done by the Kresge people and also for the loss of the anticipated profits, Newspapermen Ride on Fire Truck In response to the invitation of Chiet John H.
