Breeders’ Association Says His is the Pork to Eat. The Connecticut Berkshire Breed- : association, by its secretary, George H. Hunt, of Litchfield, has is- sued circulars calling attention to this famous breed of pokers, and says: “The Berkshire Swine Breeders’ association of Connecticut is desirous of increasing its membership, and, to that end, takes this opportunity of calling your attention to the fact that there is such an organization in the state, for the furtherance of the in- terests of its favorite breed. There can be no doubt that the Berkshire is gaining in popularity in all sec- tions of the country, and with the in- creased Interest in corn growing (particularly in the east) this is as it should be. There is no animal on the farm that will show as much profit for the money expended as a well bred and well fed Berkshire hog— a pedigree is, of course, necessary tc insure purity of blood—but the final test is the block, and there the Berk- shire is well nigh supreme as the records of numerous stockyards and national shows testify. “The Berkshire hog bears the same relationsiip to good and cheap pork as the Jersey and Guernsey cow does to the production of good butter, for the minimum of food and cost, and when their good points as grazers, their tendency to fatten easily when conflned to small quarters, and their docility, are takem into consideration, there can be no question that they are the best ‘handlers’ of any breed of hog in the world. “The dues are nominal, $1 per year on jolning and annually thereafter, and the money is well spent in in- formation and knowledge obtained, while “swapping” poimts at the an- nual dinner, to say mnothing of the strength gained, for every breeder’s material benefit, by the welding to- gether is a ‘community of interest’ of all those engaged in such an import- ant branch of the live stock indus- try.” Or Start an Ink Factory. - I some mechanician ‘can devise an for condensing Houston fog we believe it will be possible to put the finast quelity of compound violet on the market at 10 cents a barrel.—Houston Post. fire burned out.. ‘years, —Mrs. Belle , Latham Seriously Burned.

Last August Superintendent Leonard, who he charge of the road work for Wallingford, discovered a quantity of the seventeen year locust while at work repairing the road between the Tuttle home and the Gaylord farm, in the western part of the town. He re- ported the find to Selectman Cuvoke and there was quite an interesting exami- nation made. Realizing that but once in seventzen years d this insect ap- pear, the town officials were naturally interested. The locust is expected this summer in droves. As yet no method of exterminating it has been discov- ered, but the officers of the experiment station at New Haven hope to reach some conclusions after their observa- tions this summer. The pest will hard- Iy be noticed in the borough, but may be expected to do considerable damage outside in the woodland. They eat their way through the forests, cutting off small and new twigs, dropping them to the ground, and thus damaging the ees to a considerable extent. It takes just seventeen years for the insect to mature. and that is the reason for its perlodical return. The ins2cts come in enormous numbers, but do very little damage to crops except when the lat- ter are young. Ordinary repellant sub- stances, such as kerosene and cari bolic acid solution n to have v, ittle effect on insect, and are practi- cally usele or the farmer who wants to protect his trees or crops from their ravages, Recent experiments have shown, however, that the insects avoid trees thoroughly sprayed with Bor- deaux mixture, provided there are oth- er trees in the vicinity not so pre- pared. The most reliable way of pro- tecting an orchard or voung nursary is by collecting the insects in the morn= ing or evening when they are some- what torpid.
