YHE BULLETIN PRIZE TURKEYS The farmers of New London coun- ¥ who have fine flocks of turkeys are looking ‘them over to select birds to be weighed in for The Bulletin prizes @t the market of the Somers Broth- ers in Norwich next Tuesday at noou. These blue-ribbon turkeys have been quite an attraction for several years and it is pleasant for the farmers to get full .market prices for the best turkey and ‘a bonus of $10 added for first, and $5'for.the second and the third, . .50 As good .turkeys are raised In this county as are grown anywhere on the American continent and The Bulletin's premium takers will compare favor- @bly with the bird selected for the table of President Taft at the White Bouse, The best turkey, with the bonus added, is likely to command about $20 ‘this year, and that Is a pretty good wrice. The Bulletin will continue its prac- tice of donating the two best to the Rock Nook home for children and the €ounty Home for children. INVITING ENTERPRISE. The attention of the New England @nrmer s called to the fact that the outiook for the raising of cattle in fhe pastures of New England with the chance of turning & good profit is st hand. The high prices of meats of ¢!l kind are based upon scarcity, and &he packers declare that the chance ®f an over-supply of meat from any art of the cpuntry very remote, hat even now prices promise to go higher rather than lower. The out- Jook for a profitable production of fresh meats was never better than it # today, here in New England. The thought was prevalent. that western beef was better than beef gaised here, but now that the pro- Pesses of doctoring meat to check de- #ay are_known, most any fresh, un- gnedicated meat would be preferable to $he Chicago dressed meats. It has been pointed out that east- Arners go to-a new country—to Al- ®erta, to raise wheat; to California, to raise frult—and suffer all the priv. tions of the ploneer; .If these same people were willing to put up with the same hardships, and to live in shacks and dugouts, and to work the same number of hours, they could make just as much money in New ngland as they could in the far we; the same lines of business. A GREAT MISSIONARY MOVE- MENT. The conversion of Christianity is a large work to enter wpon, but the laymeh of this country three years ago organized for tHis pur- posé and its memiYers in five great eivilized countries and its annual di . bursements have reached about $175 000 & week, a total exceeding $22,000,- 900 a year, show how the work is pro- gressing. The annual convention was Reld in Baltimore this year, and with geference to its actlvity, The Ameri- gan of that city said: “There have preceded or else will follew the conventfon now in session in this city 74 other conventions in Amportant American cities promotive of this laymen's evangelistie move- mment. This énergetic, conventfonal mlan, moving frém ecity to city, ex- plains to an_extent the quick expan- slon of this Christianizing crusade. It is mot letting any grass grow under its feet, s0 to spemk. But another explanation of the immediate success of the movement is to be found in the fact that it does not attempt to pre- sent something new or different from the pstablished missionary agencies of the various church organizations. It co-operates .in completé harmony with those agencies, and, in conse- quence, as soon as the proposition was presented ‘each _denomination took it up with almost avidity. “The great movement will take on additional momentum here and then move on, growing' as it travels. A goneration is a comparatively short time in the swing of the centuries, but after all, time; like space and volume, 15 & mere matter of ratio in comput- ing results. A movement which has developed so wonderfully in three years and which seems to be growing by etrical progression, cannot be dias to its probable results the world to Jy referencs“to ordinary standards” [} | o T, R g : ? | SpCRIFICED. LIVES. Al ‘census. mortality ‘bulletin makes the - statement that from 100,000 to | infant lives' are. sacrified an- 7 to preventable diseases. Of the total number of deaths, 691, &74 ‘returned for 1903 from the entire registration area, it is stated in the bulletin that nearly one-fifth were of infants under one year of age and over ome-fourth of children less than five years of age. It is declared that the brute force of the figures repre- senting the actual deaths is more im- pressive, hewever, than any ratios or than the rates of infant mortality, even #t the latter could be computed in the absence of proper registration of Dbirths. Jere are the figures: More than one-eighth of a million Bbabies, under one year of age and fully 200,000 children, under five years of dled among about one-half of the total population of the United States #n the vear mentloned. It is not con- sidered probable that fully 200,000 more died in those cltfes and states Mot included in the census burcaw's In this con- # nection Dr. Wilbur quotes Prof. Irving Pisher's conclusion that of all the dis- having the median age one year, 47 per cent. may be pre- Vented; .and- that of the diseases of childhood having median age two to eight years, 67 per cant. may be pre- vented. “In the light of the figures quoted _ebove it would seem that practical sanitation has only made a beginning in the work of preventing the occur- pence of infant and child mortality. The ground has only been scratched over, Deep stirring of the soll and thorough cultivation of all the means avaliable, with our present scientific _ mnd medical knewledge, for the guard- ~ ing of young human lives would pro- b startling, .:u, from all past hu- n almost unbelievable a8 a function (1837). Even In England, however, no systematic efforts have been made un- til very recent years to utilize to their utmost possibilities the facts already known. .The infant mortality. of nn{- land was higher for the years 1896 to 1900 than for the years 1861 to 1865, and no marked reduction in the early rates occurs until the present decade. t is time that greater attention be given to the subject in the United States. The prompt registration of all births and the more careful and pre- cise statement of causes of death by physicians are essential. Such terms as ‘convulsions,’ ‘marasmus,’ ‘debility’ and the like should no longer be tol- erated when the true cause of death can be determined.” CHEERFULNESS AS AN ASSET. This is the motto of the Soclety of Good Cheer, which has been char- tered under thé'laws of the state of New York and’ is preparing to or- ganize Good Cheer lodges in all the «cities of the country and to send this motto on cards and hangers—“Cheer- ! fulness is an Asset to be posted in factories and business offices every- where. \This society makes it plain that “it is not a charity.” Those who join must give a por- tion of their time and, where that is impossible, they are expected to give way to others who are ready to do work in person. One of the aims of the soclety is to encourage ‘men to cheer up their friends and acquaintances when sick and convalescing. Many men have an idea that when they are sick it is best to be left alone, & kind of independence that does not always work out well with the other man. One of the strict rules of the soci- ety is that young ladies In visiting must go in pairs or groups and must | study sanitation and hyglenic rules. | Sometimes just the fact that young ladies have called and left a flower and @ card will aid a convalescing persofl to a joy—a cheer that is indeed beneficial. It is a real sunshine movement; and there is health and strength and prog- ress in sunshine. This sort of a spirit is the real spirit of life and there can- not be too much of it. EDITORIAL NOTES. Mrs. Stetson appears to féel sure that being once a Christian Selentist is to always be a Christian Scientist. Honesty is too often prized as an asset of the other man, rather than as a valuable quality to cultivate our- selves. The Kansans do not say “Tell it to the marines” any more, for they claim “Tell it to the Danes” is just as ef- fective, A Kansas man has married his moth- er-in-law. This is the most modern way of getting square with a mother- in-law. Notice is given that Boston must commence to feed her elms, or they will all perish within ten years of starvation.

Happy hought for today: Those who do ot ‘feel thankful every day, should make a revision of the year to find something to be thankful for on Thanksgiving day. Dr. L.

In' the aisle fn front of him stood, a fair young woman and as the man, who was middle-aged, moved forward in the seat, she sald, smiling sweetly: “Oh, thank you, never mind. 1 domt wish to sit down.” The man made a motion as if to get to his feet, but the young woman reached out her hand, saying: Please keep your séat. I have been standing so long now I don’t ming, and T'm gettng oft in a few minutes. With that the business man jumped to his feet and sald not as softly as he might: “Young woman, yowll please permit me to get off, Yowve made me go a square boyond my street now.”—Phila- delphia Time: dlm.wwm‘_nfh th WOr] Ealuck hay ::lnu to New York, .giving out oxygen matter of ready reference any mo- ment—and always prove satisfactory to the wearer and doer.

If you have a growing boy who is bashful and shy—who does not seem to care for the society of girls or women, do not worry about him, for he will find his place in life, and the chances are that he will fill it satis_ factorily. He has his life to live out and what seem to you to be gross faults may. be something else. It is easy for anxious parents to find fault even with good and promising chil- dren. It is a fact that shy boys often win most fame as men, and boys thought by their parents to be the most unpromising have become great captains of industry. Many parents spoil boys as men do round trunnels by driving them into square holes, Shy Billy was a boy who annoyed his par- ents by his flight from all strangers— he simply would not see them, but when he became a man he was se- lected as chairman of the strangers’ welcoming committee when his native town celebrated its 300th anniversary and he did it well. What's in a boy cannot be forced out—let it develop. The little girl who defined for her teacher the word “gentieman” as “a man you do not know very well,” de- served to be praised for it. She had ot learned that “no man is great to his valet” or that “familiarity breeds contempt.” Right fresh from the reel of her observation came this concept, as pat as you please. We are all S0 human, and so much alike in some re- spects ‘that one does not loom above another where the conversation is homely and elbows touch. Men who are great doers do not look different from the more moderate or shiftless persons about them when idlifg or in- dulging in play. George Washimgton may have been a good deal of a clown to Martha, just as Socrates was a lazy loat to Xanthippe, his wife. No man lives and dies by one estimate upon his character and his conduct. How easy it is for a person of cam- plaining habit to make a case out against themselves. They are annoyed by trifles and incldentally fuss all the time over trifles, and it is no uncom- mon thing for them to make a worse case out against themselves than agiinst their annoyers, to all their friends. The plaint is soon worn threadbare and they are a nuisance to all about them. While they look for sympathy, they do not get it, for their words excite ridicule rather than pity. It is not good to be a fusser or a musser. There is no art in knowing how to scold or in becoming a con- firmed scold. There is virtue in know- ing when and ‘where and how to keep still, and for such a person there is sure eventually to be peace of mind and social quiet. It is something unusual for such a large number of wild geese to be fly- ing south as were heard on Sunday evening, November '13th, between 7 and 8 o'clock. They were flying low and honking on the east side of the city as well as the west, showing a width of2line of over a milé; but it was not “a far, strange sound through the night, a dauntless and resolute cry, clear in the tempests despite, ringing so wild and so high” that Celia Thaxter used to hear and write about at the Isles of Shoals, but a weary sound of low, uncertain flight, as if they were in & plight and needed rest just for a night. They were down within gun- shot range, though invisible, and were im evidence for ten or fifteen minutes, 1t was a warm night, and with open water north nearly to Labrador it is taken as an omen of coming cold—the change we all so naturally dread. As | look over the fruit trees in city yards I often wonder how often they are pruned—how well they are taken care of. Powell says every man should prune and cultivate his own trees, cut- ting out the suckers and thinning out the interlacing boughs or sprays and lessening the wood upon the branches to reduce waste energy and increase the sunlight upon them. which means also to increase the fruitage, and feed them with ten pounds of ground bone and four pounds of muriate potash per tree per season; but from the number of mests of the fall webworms hang- ing in the trees and the superabund- ance of limbs, I am inclined to think that the average city tree and average country tree receive no attention whatever, that they are left to their natural growth and starvation and finally are cut down because they are wormy and unprofitable. The fact is, when it comes to trees or men too-few know a sucker when they sce it. 1t was not designed that every good person on carth should look their part, if it had been we should the more readily recognize them singly or when in the mass. The men in prison Jook well enough when properly garbed and gathered at grand opera or in a Sun- day school. The heroes are not men of finest form. nor the mentally great men of the most impressive presence. I once knew a fool of such fine pres- erice that it was said of him, “If ho would only keep his mouth shut he would be mistaken for a philosopher. 1t ‘the.combination was_such_that ev_ ery person looked his part, we should not have had such a proverb as “Beauty 8 that beauty does” or that “Clothés make the actress and lack of them the chorus girl” And it is Just as well every man doesn't look his_part, for the world needs a few surprises as well as a few. fools in disguise for its delectation.

Oh, how perfect- ly exasperating to be obliged to think about something one has resolved nev- er_to think about In five mintues she was skimming lightly over the water. She paddled with an almost feverish energy, as if each vigorous stroke contributed some- thing of new poise. It might have been an hour, or less—she neither knew nor cared; she realized only that green islands were between her- self and the ‘scene of her late mental conflict. Then a sudden shadowing of the witer and a _surprisingly near Tumble of thunder drew her attention to the wild doddx s soudding ap &r::n the lou(hvesi.‘ t same ins she felt /the l?eli!‘ng of the breeze and marked how it was Tippling v'titude of MttTe waves shoreward.

No craft was in sight. And though she yodelled courageously she knew that sound could reach no one on the west- ern shore. « Imagine her joy when the distant puffing of a gasoline launch reached her ears, and she was able to make out the dim outline. Desperately she determined to keep afloat a little long- er. It seemed an age before the launch came within hailing distance.

Few of us do as we please, but many of us find it profit- able to do to please others. ‘It we do not get what we expected out of life, perhaps we get something just as good. SUNDAY MORNING TALK “And Be Ye Thankful.” So spake an early apostle of the Christian religion to a group of his converts, whom he wanted to build up in the fundamentals of religious faith and practice. He was in the habit of referring in his letters to various churches to the element of thanksgiv- ing as one of the important elements in the equipment of the man who as- pired after a strong and symmetrical life. In Paul's judgment it was just as necessary that a man should be habitually thankful as it was for him to quit his drunkenness and his steal ing. Now, all this happened long before the Pllgrim Fathers of New England instituted their special seasons of thanksgiving for their fellow colonists, long before governors and presidents issued elaborate formal Thanksgiving proclamations, long before turkey and cranberry sauce came to be essentials of the yearly festivals, long before a great nation was officlally summoned year by year to observe a designated day. But the advance of the centuries and the development of purely local insti- tution into country-wide festival have not by any means carried us on so far that ‘we do. not need to pay heed to this gentle, yet stirring admonition from the long ago. Suppose we should begin at once to say to ourselves and others at least two or three times a day until next Thursday, “Be ye thank- preparation for the sincerest-and hap- plest Thanksgiving we have’ ev known?
