e OLD.FASHIONED METHODS ARE INTERESTING ‘Written Specially for The Bulletin. Ordinarily, I don't ‘“cock up” hay- I am not selling it, and consequently do not care for ithe whims of buyers who lay stress on looks rather than “quality. somewhat more evenly, even though it may “bleach” a trifle. And the ex- tra labor cost of cocking up, of shak- ing out, of raking up again, etc.—this means a larger loss to - ©of quality froin the above-mentioned fbleaching. This last very trifling, <anyway, unless the hay has to lie out through hard rains and be dried two ‘or_three times over. But, vesterday, I found that a little L& patch’ of mown grass would have to i lie out for three full days, taking its schances of ihe weather before it could §bo got in. So Hank and I started to #rake it up and cock it. Whereupon ? the horse-rake promptly broke down. There was no time to have it repaired. So we grabbed up the old hand-rakes t* and made some old-fashioned wind- ; Tows, It was wholly unaccustomed work %o Hank, and he had some trouble } “‘getting the hang of it.” But, say, it did me good to see once more a good, round, straight. fairly “closed-in" windrow! Amnd when we came to .2 make the hay-cocks they just rolled ‘ themselves into shape and into water- shedding character so easily that even Hank remarked upon it. Ordinarily, now-a-days, in this part of the world, hay is scraped together in shapeless masses by horse-rakes and then “bunched” with forks for purposes of loading or leaving over night. These “bunches” shed rain about like a sponge, while our real hay-cocks will turn it off as well as a thatched roof. ‘Of course, I'm not going to revert to the use of hand-tools,—the scythe and the hand-rake, and so on. Labor-cost would forbid such a scheme, at the outset. But the little experience on that clover patch brought back to me the old days when, with my father, 1 used those same old-fashioned tools over the farm. I am not sure but that we used to get along about as satis- factorily, then, as we do now. We ;-:rtainly got better hay and more of We'll admit that it used to be weari- some work, swinging the scythe all the morning, pulling the rake most of the afternoon. I have often wondered it there is a single square ineh on all my meadow-land which my feet haven't trodden as, year after year, I used to “hitch along” behind the scythe or with the rake. The work then was done without hired help,— only an occasional pairing-off with some neighbor in an exceptional stress. As I have intimated, ‘it wouldn't be possible to do it that way, now, cause the cost of labor has increased 80 much more than the value of farm- produce, proportionally, that all the hay one could raise wouldn’'t pay the wages of makirg it in the old way. 1 don't want to go back to the old way— woulan't, even if it were economically practicable. But my little experience of yesterday has brought back the days of hand-tools vividly to my mind. I found that it took only a minute for the old knack to‘return to my hands and arms.. After that, the rake seem- ed as natvral as the reins and the dumping-lever have become of late years, Nor was it any harder work. I didn’t do as much in an hour as I 'EGTEMA GfliE: BOILS CURED “‘My son was about three weeks old when 1 noticed a breaking-out on his cheeks, from which a watery substance oozed. A short time after, his arms, shoulders and breast broke out also, and in a few days became a solid scab. 1 became alarmed, and called our family physician who at once pronounced the disease eczema. The little fellow was under his treatment for about three months. the end of that time, he seemed no better, I became discouraged, and as I had read of Cuticura Remedies and testimonials of a great many people who had used them with Wwonderful " success, I dropped the doctor's treatment, and commenced the use of Cuti-~ cura Soap and Ointment, and in a few days noticed a marked chanse. When he was about seven months old, all trace of the eczema wag gome. During his teething Perlod, his_head and face were broken out n boils which I cured with Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Surely he must have been a great sufferer. I used the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, nothing else, and when two years old he was the picture of health. His com{rlexmn was soft and beautiful, and his head a mass of silky curis. 1 had been afraid If left in the swathe, it dries | me than the | possible but by no means proven loss could have done with old Sorrel and the steel rake, but the hour didn't “take any more out of me, ’—didn't weary me any more. Disregarding the amount accomplished, and simply con- sidering the labor involved, I'm in- clined to think I'd rather pull the hand-rake an hour than drive a horse- rake for an hour. All this has set me off on a new line of speculation. I wonder if the | advent of improved machinery on farms has really made farm-work "much easier than it used to be. We certainly can do more in a day with our machines than anybody ever could with hand-tools. But is the work much if any easier, after all? We can do more in ten hours with our machines than our fathers used-to do in fourteen hours with their hands. That's clear. It would be unreasona- ble to question it. The result is a cheapening of production. That's equally clear. But don’t we work just as hard if not a leetle harder during those ten hours than the old folks used to during their fourteen? It is manifestly possible for us to. Any man can work faster for a single hour than he can all day; he can work harder for ten hours than he could for fourteem,—and keep it up: Is that about what we are really doing? i Have we let out the speed-lever an extra notch? | If we really have done that thing, | then it would seem as if it was some- | thing of a misnomer to talk about “labor-saving” machinery. ‘It might more accurately be called labor- speeding machinery. It makes us work faster, enables us to do more, | produces larger results per hoar. But | is it really any easier? L doubt it. Indeed, | don’t suppose there is, or ever was, or ever will be discovered any way to make hard work easy. Nor do 1 suppose that anything worth while will ever be accomplished in this world without hard work. Nor,—and this is most intrinsically important of all—do I suppose that any real man ever wanted to live or ever will want to live without hard work. You can’t climb a hill by sliding | down the slope; you can't build a | house without first getting ‘out the stuff and then framing it together; yvou can't make a winning race-horse out of any colt by keeping him in a padded stall with never an hour of hard training; you can’t have a body that will obey and serve you without first developing the sinews and mus- cles by hard work. Don’t talk about work as a curse. Why, man alive, it's the greatest blessing of life. It's the one thing that makes life endurable; the only thing that makes it worth while. Men and women who “hate” work usually end wp by hating everybody and everything else on earth,—including themselves. And if the sentiment isn't cordially reciprocated by others, it is because is a more fit- ting response t Of course, there’s all the difference in the world between intelligent, self- directed worl towards an end and with a purpose,—between this and slavish drudgery. Right there is where .we farmers on our little in- dividual farms “have the pull” on all the rest of the world. We work for ourselves, towards the accomplishment of our own ends, not under the lash of any human taskmaster. That our work is hard is nothing against it. That it is productive and self-build- ing and up-building and satisfaction- breeding and cheer-nurturing,—these are among its blessings. I don’t think that attempts to escape hard work are either praiseworthy or desirable; T know they are seldom successful. Also, we all know that ,when success- ful, they lead eventually to the very worst kind of failure,—the failure of life itself. There's a tremendous lot of solid truth in the fairy story of the “Doas- Yyoulikes” in Charles Kingsley's “Water Babies,” These “Doasyoulikes” all abandoned the country of Hardwork and went to live in the land of Ready- made at the foot of the Happygo- lucky Mountains, where flapdoodle grew wild ang little pigs ran around, ready roasted.

It is lamentably true that the world is full of people who want to live with- out work and who bemoan the fact that they must work to live as if it were a hard thing. They are always hunting after something easier. They do mot 'want to do better work or taster work, but less work. Too many of us farmers get into that state of mind. I've just been reading how a state experiment station has been for yvears seeking some way to kill dan- delions without work. It has tried all sorts of spraying schemes, in the en- deavor to find something you can put on with a sprinkling pot which will kill dandelions and won't kill grass or vegetables. They haven't found it. They have' discovered several mix- tures will ruin the grass and kill the crops, but none of them will kill dan- delions. They sorrowfully admit that ‘lhe only way they yet know is to dig the things up, to the tip-end of the tap-root. For years the market has been flooded with tools to make cul- tivation easier,—horse-hoes and wheel- hoes and the like, in almost countless variety. Many of them do help some- what in hastening the work. But I've never found one yet that did the work as well as it can be done with hoe and fingers, nor so thoroughly but that its frequent skips and failures must be hunted out and corrected by hand, if you insist upon a perfect job. No, men and brethren; this old world can be kept going as we want it to g5 only by constant hard work. Furthermore, there isn’t now. and never is going to be any device or system or Agent for Richardson and Boyntom | machinery to make hard work easy. 5 Y. 88 West Main Street. Norwich, Conn. T. F.

Thomas M. Waller, ex-governor of the state, a former mayor of New London, and one who did things, just as the present mayor is doing things, and removed the old-time wooden awn- ings, swinging signs and signs that extended beyond the building lines in quick time, is now an advocate of the slow and sure way of municipal man- agement. At the meeting of the court of common council last Monday even- ing, Mr. Waller for himself and other taxpayers, warned in an elaborate communication the council to go slow in the building of new sidewalks and not go beyond the legal limitations Mr. Waller was one of the strongest opponents of the present system, which was authorized by the state and ap- proved by the citizens of New Lon- don by ballot in special city meeting ‘with polls open for the convenience of the whole people as on regular elec- tion day. Mr, Waller notified the council that they had no power to make contracts Afor new sidewalks under the new law, until appropriation was specifically made for that purpose and that the tax received for the new walks was not available until favored by the cit- izens in city meeting. The communi- cation was given respectful reading and then, witheut comment, was re- ferred to the street committee and will probahly be pigeonhcled by that com- mittee. Then the council went right straight ahead and completed arrange- ments for the building of thirty miles of granolithic sidewalks, just as if the ‘Waller communication had never been received. This action was taken with the approval of the corporation coun- sel who is supposed to he somewhat acquainted with the legality of the ac- tion. Not since the memorable council meeting when the Thames Ferry com- pany was granted a ten years’ exten- sion of lease, when Senator Frank B. Brandegee, then corporation counsel, sat beside the mayor and aided in the passage of the vote in favor of grant- ing the extension, has a corporation counsel sat with the in council meeting until last Monday night when Corporation Counsel Brennan held the seat of honor. That ferry matter was strongly opposed by Mayor Armstrong, then alderman, and a_ bidder for the franchise, and favored by Alderman Frank V. Chappell, connected with the ferry company. The extension of the lease was granted and the document was signed by the ferry committee before they went to bed that night. There was doubt about the legality of the move, but the act was subsequent- | 1y legalized by the state legislature. Subsequent service proved that the ac- tion was advantageous to the publie by an improved service. At the time of the petition for the ferry lease extension in anticipation of legal points being raised the corpora- tion counsel was Johnny on the Spot to decide and give legal advice to the aldermen. Perhaps that was the rea- son for the presence of the corpora- tion counsel when the sidewalk matter was up for consideration, and with the advance knowledge that the Waller communication was to be presented. But in this case there was no discus- sion as all the aldermen were of the same mind, and the corporation coun- sel was not required to mix in and give legal advice on the important matter. Perhaps business of the city transacted, were the corporation counsel to attend all meetings of the court of common council. This is done in smaller places than New London and with good re- sults, as then matters can be referred for legal interpretation direct and with no delay. Referring to the Chappells in con- nection with the ferry lease, reminds that they are not only good managers of the ferry and their extensive busi- ness interests besides, but are among the most progressive of citizens and have done more towards building up their native city than most any other family in the city. They are the bes. of emplovers always considering the interest of the employes in connection with their own interests, giving them the benefits of holidays and giving th>m substantial remembrances at Christmas time. The Chappells are not only good business men and em- plovers, but they are also ever on the lookout to advance the ci interests and are never slow in the effort to boom, beautify or improve the city. They were strong advocates of Sen- ator Mayor Mahan's scheme of side- walks and that they were consistent in their support was shown last week when new sidewalks were “being laid in front of the Bank street property, opposite. Tilley _street, for they own many other sections cf property on that business street. Their share of the new sidewalk expense will be quite an amount although their walks were in good condition before being torn up to make way for the mew and uniform walks in Bank street. In front of their granite building, formerly the B. F. Brown home, and now utilized as a lumber storehouse, was a yard about five feet in width, that extended out that distance on the sidewalk, that car- ried with it a fence line for quite a long distance to the storehouse farther up the street. When the sidewalk builders reached that part of the Chap- pell property they were told to remove the “legal obstructions.” The Chap- pells gave that strip of the land towards widening the sidewalk and at a point where it is not only a great improvement but a public convenience. This is in keeping with their general policy and is in marked contrast to the actions of some other property owners where public improvement could be made without damage to private prop- erty but which is prevented by lack of pride and progressiveness. Where private property is damaged in mak- ing public improvement, it is but just that the property owner be fairly rec- ompensed, but there are other cases where public improvement improves private property but the owners’ greed prevents the improvement. Almost diagonally opposite the Chappell prop- erty city officials are endeavoring to ar- range for the straightening and wid- ening of the sidewalk by taking quite a strip from the private property. As this property is now lined to the street proper, the taking of this strip would make the property of a more acute angle that would be really detrimental to” the future value of the property. There are racc'y cases of this character, the great majority being where changes planned would be for the mutual benefit of the public dnd the property owners. It is in these cases where the public spirit characteristic of the Chappells is missing. A lawyer of prominence with office and conceded to be the lea poli cian on the democratic side, “not an mayor | always the bosom friend in politics of | | Bryan F. Mahan, declared to the writer | this week, that the people of New Lon- don and of the state, regardless of | politics, must admire the achievements of the senator-mayor during the pres- ent session of the legislature. He has fathered more measures of magnitude, perhaps, than any other senator that! sat in the cosy senate chamber in the | state capital, and emerges with .the | cleanest kind of a record. He said he believed he voiced the sentiment of the! party in saying that Senator Mahan has so broadened out in ability and principle, that now he is not only the biggest democrat but one of the big- gest citizens in the state of Connecti- cut. , In conclusion, he said: “Now, you've got my opinion of Bryan F. Mahan, but not for publication, as it would | not perhaps sound well for me to bej praising the qualifications of Mahan, and some mean cuss might work that old parallel column newspaper gag on me to show apparent inconsistency; but which as a matter of fact is real conversion that is actually deserved. Perhaps, however, that the old fellow who wrote something of the man of | sense changing his mind occasionally and the fool never, may have had some fellow of my stripe in mind, for I have certainly changed my opinion of the mayor of New London and the sena- tor who represents the whole state in the senate as well as the towns of New London and Groton, Alderman Eugene T. Kirkland, one of the oldest residents of the Pequot { colony, but far from being the nldesfl person resident in that fashionable section of the ¢ is the present fore- man of the Independant Pequot Hose company, and has held the position since organization. The company owns its own quarters and apparatus, but recently became a part of the regular department, receiving the same allow- ances as the other companies of the department. The company has a hand- drawn hose wagon and hook and lad- der truck and now Foreman Kirklandg has resolved to install a modern au- tomobile chemical and hose wagon, es- pecially adapted for fire purposes in that section. The company has in its | membership about all the men of | wealth in the colony as well as many | others of the working class, but all on an equal footing in the organization. Foreman Kirkiand proposes to pur- chase the modern fire apparatus by the contributions of the members of the company and friends of the same. He started out with the subscription i paper, Tuesday, submitted it to eleven men and received pledges for $1,100. The apparatus will cost between $5,000 and $6,000 and there is no doubt but that sum will be speedily raised, de- pendent upon the speed of the man | with the paper. ! A project of this kind was success- fully carried to an issue about eight i years ago by the Niagata Engine com- | pany composed wholly of working- men, the main portion working in shops and not a real monied man in the bunch. At that time the automo- bile chemical and hose wagon was not { known in this country, that is none | were in operation although one was in course of construction by the LaFrance Engine company in Elmira. The Ni- agaras raised $5,500 among its mem- bership, purchased the apparatus, and have the distinction of being the first fire organization in the United States an automobile chemical and The machine has been in operation ever since, and has saved its cost many times over in saving the property of citizens of New Londoa. It has done and is doing good work, but today therz are many lighter and speedier fire-fighting machines of that class, vhich of course are an improve- ment upon the original. When the Peauots get their new machire, New London will have the distinction of having the first and the latest there is in modern fire-fighting apparatus of the automcbile type. Al- though purchased by the Niagara com- pary, and maintained fer vears at an expense to the company members, the apparatus as is wag practically turned over to the city and subject to the orders of the chief engineer just the same as any other apparatus of the department. i i i Although there was inclination to abandon the observance of Beach Day by some of the Ocean beach cot- tagers, the indications now -favor celenration om a mose elaborate scale than ever before, and all through the efforts of ex-Governor Waller, the “Father of Ocean Beach,” who is re- sponsible for city ownership of that heach property. Mr. Waller is pr ident of the Ocean Beach association ana just as soon as he saw surface in- dications of lack of interest in Beach day he at once called the menibers to- getiner and talked the matter over in all its details and the vesult was a unanimous vote to have the custor celebration in a much improved form E to eclipse all previcus efforts in = celebration line. celebration will next month on a date lected, but will be at a time when tide and moon is favorable to the canoe carnival in the evening. Committees have been appointed to arrange the detaiis, which will include the parade of automobiles in the mornmg. tcfore residents of the beach aund own- ers of other automobiles in the parade had as passengers members of their families, but on the coming occasion the passengers will be children from the Day Nursery and from the public play grounds of the city. It is possi- ble,that there will be repetiiion of the W. M. I. pageant and that an aero- plane flight will be among the new features. It is also planned to have the canoe carnival enlarged and the pyrotechnic display will be larger than ever. All the day events will be held on the beach proper and in the water directly in front of the beach and there will be day and evening concerts by the Eleventh Artillery band from Fort Wright. While ex-Governor Waller has of Jate oppnsed nearly every measure that Mayor-Senator Mahan proposed, yet he showed his friendship and apprecia- tion for the gentleman by nominating him as president of Beach day, the highest honor the beach association could bestow upon any citizen. So it is hats off to the “Father of Ocean Beach.” The Ocean Beach association was not adjourned twenty-four hours when, with best of intentions, the New Lon- don board of trade and the New Lon- don Business Men’s agsociation butted in and called a meefing of the citi- zens to broaden the scope of Beach day, make it New London day instead, { for this season at least, and have a general celeoration in which the whole people could officially participate.

The ob- Jject is to give appreciation of the suc- cessful efforts of Mayor-Senator Bryan ¥. Mahan for the great service he has done for his constituency and the city of New London at the present session of the legislature, and to give public endorsement of his action. The real cause of the enlargement of the Beach day celebration is the passage of the act for the state to issue bonds to the amount of $1,000,000 for the development of New London harhor, that the people consider worth celebrating. In this connection it has been suggested that while deserved honor is to be given the mayor-sena- tor, for it would also be an opportune time for the people to have oppor- tunity to show appreciation of the munificence of Morion F. Plant who gave from his private funds $1,025,000 for the Counecticut Women's coliege. It is therefore probable that the com- mittee will arrange to have all possi- ble honor given to Mayor Bryan F. Mahan and to Morton F. Plant on the day of the big celebration, The board of school visitors are out for what they believe to be improved methods of management of the schools, regardless of expense like unto the health department, only independently and perhaps mere so, new proposes to hire trained nurse at $1,000 a year to guard the health of the pupils in the public schools, and to aid in the pre- vention of contagious diseases. Tt is planned to have a system that would include a volunteer physician for each school in connection with the duties of the nurse and by that means chil- dren that were not in good health would be reported to the family phy- sician, if need be, or cared for direct- ly by the nurse. In some places the district nurse includes in her Auties visitatior to the public schools, but in this instance, the duties of the school nurse and the district nurse would be independent of each other. The doc- tors on the hoard of school visitors, and there are three of them, advocate the nurse idea and say that there is need of the innovation, and they ought to know. For some reason that is mot explained the board of school visitors will not engage a nurse unless the scheme is sanctioned by the court of common coun although the advice of the council is seldom sought in school matters. Perhaps there is de- sire that the salary should not come out of the appropriation for schools, but from another source, so that the school expenses would' not be consid- ered excessive The school board has already re- lieved Charles B. Jennings as principal of the Nathan Hale Grammar school and ordered him to devote all his time to the superintendency of the schools, and for this duty he is to receive the same salary as when he filled the dual positions. The school visitors have al- so decided to have a male successor to Mr. Jennings as principal. and at a respectable salary. There are other changes, all necessary, perhaps, that materially increases the the city's ed- ueational bill, which is all right pro- vided the results warrant the increased expenditures.
