A party of four who Were on week's hunting trip last week have re- turned, bringing home plenty of game. The party consisted of Albert Baker, Frank Van Dyne, William Leonard and Frank J. Murtha. One of the remark- able incidents of the hunt was that experienced by Albert Baker last Sat- urday. He noticed a bird's nest in a nearby tree and out of curiosity had gone up to the tree to see what kind of a nest it was and was shaking the tree, when he looked down on the ground, and there right in front of him ‘was a large rabbit eitting up and look- ing at him. Mr. Baker stood as still 28 possible, 50 as not to frighten the rabbit, and at a favorable moment reached down suddenly and seized it. This is the first time on record in this section of the county that anyone has been known to catch a rabbit with his hands. The hunters wound up the successful hunt by entertaining a num- ber of their friends at a game supper. Moving Picture of Bleachery Crowd. Manager McNulty of the Breed and a moving picture camera man were in Greeneville Tuesday flklnfi pictures of the employes of the bleachery as they came out of the building on their way to the noon meal. The machine was placed in front of the main entrance shortly before noon, and as soon as the 12 o'clock whistle blew the ma- chine was started. All the employes were not taken, as it is said that near- ly 200 of those who work in the print- ing department do not go home to dinner, but have It brought to them. This is the first time that moving plctures have been taken in Greene- ville, and quite & large crowd gathered to watch the operator at his work, as many of them had not seen one of the machines before. The usual crowd of small boys was present also, Funeral of Kalizeick Infant.

(fiil&ren (5ry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA WINDHAM SOIL Few Years. Through the bureau of soils of the department of agriculture, the soll sur- vey of Windham county has been com- pleted and the report issued, in which it Is stated that the selection of this area was made because of urgent re- quests of citizens of the county, duly indorsed by Congressman Edwin W. Higgins. The work was done in 1910 and 1911, After going into details very completely, the report gives the following summary of the sofl survey: Summary. Windham county lies in the morth- eastern corner of the state and in- udes 15 towns, with a total area of 7 square miles, or 337,280 acres. Whe census of 1900 gave the county a pop- ulation of 46,861, while in 1910 it had 48,361 inhabitants. Willimantic, pop- ulation 11,230, is the largest city. Put- nam, with 6,637 inhabitants, is the next largest place; and Danielson, with 2,934 inhabitants, is the third place in size and manufacturing importanc There are numerous small manufac- turing towns along the railroads, and back from the raflroads are a number of typical New England villages, one or_more in each town. The surface features for the most part are rolling to_ steep, hilly and broken, with local differences in ele- vation ranging up to 500 feet, and a general elevation of 120 to 1100 feet above sea level. Comparatively level areas intermediate in elevation occur through most of the wide valleys. The broadest of these runs through the east center of the county, along the Quinebaug river which forms the main drainage outlet for the area and con- tains many excellent power sites. All of these streams are bordered by nar- row overflow strips, and some of these are in a swamp condition. The county has good railroad fa- cllities and an extensive system of public roads. The climate is marked by long, cold winters, with a heavy snowfall, and short, cool summers, with occasional short’ periods of extreme heat. More Interest in Farming. Since 1905, more interest has been taken in farming, and a great many of the farms more recently abandoned are now being improved again. Land values have advanced. Apple orchards are being planted, neglected orchards pruned and cultivated, and conditions have improved generally. Dairying has made rapid strides in the last few years and is an important feature of the agriculture. The leading crops are hay, corn, potatoes, rye, buckwheat and beans, Chances for Stock Raising. The county offers good opportunities for stock raising. Extensive areas too stony for_cultivation could be put in grass and used advantageously for sheep. Hogs may also be profitably raised. Nine types of soil are mapped. These are grouped In three series and the three miscellaneous types, rough stony land, meadow and muck. The Gloucester series comprises the high upland soils, the Merrimac series includes the terrace sofls, and the Po- dunk the alluvial material, where suf- ficlently uniform to be mapped as a type. Gloucester Loam. The Gloucester loam is an important type, occurring in the central part of the county. It is the least stony of the upland soils, easy to till, except on the steeper slopes, and naturally productive. It is used principally for dairying and the production of hay, corn and potatoes. It gives good ylelds of all the crops grown. It is a good apple soll. The Gloucester loam s an import- ant type occurring through the central part of the county. Its most exten- sive development Is in the towns of Woodstock and Pomfret, extending from the Massachusetts line to be- yond the railroad south of the vil- lage of Pomfret. A number of smaller areas occur west of this and farther south through Killingly, Brooklyn and Plainfield towns. Fine Sandy Loam. The Gloucester fine sandy lodn s an extensive upland type, easy to till and nearly as productive as the lodm. AUTOMOBILE SMASH IS GROUND FOR SUIT William Sheehan Claims $15,000 Dam- ages from Dr. C. F. Ferrin of New London. In a suit in which papers were serv- ed Tuesday, returnable before the su- perfor court in December, Willlam Sheehan of New London asks dam- ages of from Dr. Carlisle F. Ferrin of the same city, for injuries received as the result of a collision between an automobile driven by the defendant and a lumber wagon driven by the plaintiff on November 11. The plaintiff alleges that the ma- chine, which was of high power, was being driven at a reckless, negiigent manner, without proper lights and was going at a greater speed than 25 miles an hour. The defendant made no at- tempt to slow down to ten miles an hour or to a reasonable rate of speed, nor was the machine under control, The machine was on the wrong side of the road and the defendant failed to turn out. The machine struck the wagon driv- en by the plaintiff with great force and violence, Sheehan being thrown to the road. The plaintiff received a fracture of the upper and lower left jaws, a severe wrenching of the spine, and a serious shock to his body, as the result of which he will be permanently injured. TOLD MEN'S LEAGUE 4 OF PARCELS POST. Assistant Postmaster Peale Was the Speaker at Broadway Church. The Men's League of Broadway Con- gregational church held one of the most largely attended agd most inter- esting sessions of its existence Tues- day evening, the featurs of the pro- gramme being an address on Parcels Post by Arthur L.

Banquet for Grand Warden. Norwich lodge, No. 248, i5 to enter- tain Grand Wardea James L. Christie ORWICH BULLETIN, WEDNESD NOVEMBER 20, 1912 SURVEY MADE Followed Requests of Citizens Endorsed by Congressman Higgins—Government Experts Have Concluded Work and Report—Dairying and Orchards Have Grown in Last A large proportion of the type is un- der cultivation. Grasses, corn, Oats and potatoes are the most extensife crops. Rye, beans and buckwheat are minor crops. The Gloucester fine sandy loam oc- curs extensively in the western half of the county and in a numbver of areas east of the Quinebaug valley. A lighter phase occurs in the south- eastern part of the county, extending south from East Killingly in a lage area to the Moosup valley. Stony Fine Sandy Leam. The Gloucester stony fine sany loam is also an extensive type, but it is not farmed to any extent on account of its stony character. It can best be used for pasture. This is the most extensive type in the county. It occurs in all sections, generally occupying rough, rolling to hilly and broken topography, with natural drainage. Rough Stony. The rough stony land has very lit- tle value except for the timber it sup- ports. The best areas are suitable for pasture. The rougher areas should be used for forestry. The rough stony land is not a very extensive type in Windham county. Some of the largest areas are to be found north of Putnam, between the Quinebaug and French_rivers, near East Thompson, east of Danielson and Sterling station, and through the cen- tral western part of the county. Merrimac Gravelly -Sandy. The Merrimac gravelly sandy loam includes most of the terrace lands and outwash plains. The least desirable areas are not suitable for farming, and should be planted to white pine. The more level areas produce fair yields of corn ang buckwheat. It is best adapted to potatoes and early truck crops. About one-thirq of the area of Mer- rimac gravelly sandy loam is found along the Quinebaug river, covering roughly the Quinebaug valley. It is narrow in the north, but widens to about 3 miles near Plainfield. Another comparatively large area is found along Five-Mile river, and other im- portant areas along the Moosup, ) chaug, Mount Hope, Willimantic, L tle and Shetucket rivers. Merrimac Fine Sandy. The Merrimac fine sandy loam is not an extensive type, though import- ant agriculturally, about all of it be- ing under cultivation. It is used prin- cipally for general crops, which give good yields. It is best adapted to early truck crops. This is not an extensive type, but occurs in a number of areas, mostly in the eastern part of the county. Podunk Fine Sandy. The Podunk fine sandy loam is an alluvial type—wet and subject to over- flow. It well drained it would pro- duce heavy yields of corn and hay, and prove well adapted to onions, cel- ery and cabbage. Some of the most important areas are found along the Quinebaug river, and its large tributariel in the west- ern part-of the county, and the Mount Hope, Natchaug and Shetucket rivets. Muck Land. « The areas of muck are swampy and no effort has been made to farm them. They are well adapted to the growing of cranberries. If well drained, they would produce good crops of corn and hay. Onlons, celery and cabbage are special crops that would do well. The areas of muck which are map- ped vary from 10 to over 100 acres in extent, several northeast of Putnam. Others are found farther south In Kill- ingly, Sterling, Brooklyn and Plain- field and in the central and western parts of Pomfret, Woodstock, East- forq and Ashford. Meadows. Narrow strips of meadow occur along most of the streams, especially through the uplands. These are not suited to agriculture in their present condition, but can be drained and con- verted into good land for corn, grass and some special crops. Areas of meadow occur in all parts of the county. ALLEN SUITS WILL NOT BE TRIED AGAIN. Attorneys Have Agreed to Settlement of Claim Against Connecticut Com- pany. The two suits of Wellington H. Allen vs. the Connecticut company and Eu- nice H. Allen vs. the city of New Lon- don are to be settled. Attorney G. Curtis Morgan, who represents both plaintiffs, and counsel for the defend- ants have agreed to settlement which will be perfacted soon. These are the sults in which judgments were se- cured by the plaintiffs but set aside at the direction of Judge Ralph Wheeler of the superior court. Wellington Allen sued the Connecti- cut company for injuries sustained on Decoration days several years ago in riding on the running board of a crowded trolley car, his head striking a pole. The jury gave him $3,000, but Judge Wheeler ordered the verdibt set aside. Miss Allen sued for injuries suffered in a fall on a slippery sidewalk near the Old Town mill. The same jury gave her $2,600. Judge Wheeler ordered er to take 3900 or have the verdict set aside. She refused the $300 and the verdict was set aside. In both cases appeal to the supreme court was taken from Judge Wheeler's ruling. In the supreme court no er- ror was found and the sults were sent back to the superfor court for an- other trial, but will be settled and so will not come to trial.

Untll he became un- consclous his mind remained clear, al- though he showed a gradual wasting away of physical strength. He had been confined to his room almost con- tinuously ‘since last June. Since election day, when he was car- ried to the polls on a cot that he might fulflll a deep-seated ambition to vote again, he had failed rapidly. He was 80 years old. In' 1867 he was nominated by the republicans of _Fayette county for state senator and elected. He remain- ed in the senate for 18 vears by su cessive re-elections, sefving the long- est contlnuously of any member of the Towa legislature since the admission of the state. He was an able practical legislator and acquired by long s vice an intimate knowledge of public affalrs, glving him great influence in shaping the laws and general state policy. During most of this period he was chalgman of the committee of ways and means. Governor Larrabee's career was stormy. It covered the fight for pro- hibition in this state and the enforc ment of the prohibitory law. He be- came radical on the subject dnd was relentless in the enforcement of the law. At the beginning of his second term as governor he became extremely rad- ical in regard to the control of rail- road corporations. He made radical recommendations to the 22d general assembly and in co-operation with the leaders in the legislature of that time he made all the laws in control of the railroads that now exist, excepting the two-cent fare and the anti-pass law which acts came under Governor Cum- mins' administration. Governor Lar- rabee gained the undying hatred of the liquor and railroad interests. He was indicted for libeling a convict and was tried in the Polk county district court and found not guilty. The trial at- tracted wide attention because the complaining witness was a convict and the governor of Iowa the defendant. Among the membership of the jury was one colored man. Governor Larrabee w. to be one of the wealthy men of the state. He made his money in banking and the purchase of lands when they were low in price. Two of his sons will be members of the coming general assembly of Towa. One of his daugh- ters married Victor Dolliver, bro of the late Senator Dolliver. Vi Dolliver is now dead. CHELSEA CREW SAW BODY IN THE RIVER. s understood Oliver Christianson Found Drowned at New London—Out of Jail Monday. Out of jail, where he had completed a sentence of 20 days for intoxication, but one day, the body of Olivet Ch tianson, a_Norwegian seaman, 55 years of age, was found fl the end of the Long wharf Thames river at New London about 7.30 o'clock Tuesday morning by mem- bers of the crew of the steamer Chel- sea. The body was recovered by Tony Silva, deckhand on a pile driver of the Central Vermont rafiway, and later re- moved to undertaking rooms. There were no marks' of violence on the body, which had-been in the water less than 24 hours, and the drowning was either accidental or sulcidal. Steamef Chelsea had just . left its berth and was proceeding to Norwich when ahead of the boat about 100 feet south of the stone abutment to the Long wharf one of the crew saw the body on the surface of the water. The steamer was under full steam and the man called to employes on the Central Vermont pile driver, which was working near by. Antone Silva immediately - put off in the drivers scow and fastening a rope to the body towed it to the public landing. The body was later viewed at the undertaking rooms by Medical Exam- iner Harry M. Lee. On the body there were no marks to Indicate any foul play. In the pockets of the clothes were found a razor, razor strop, jack- knife, box containing shaving soap, a comb, a quarter and a box of pills Christlanson claimed his residence as Norway, and so far as is known had no relatives in this vicinity or in this country. CHALLENGE CHADWICK SERVING AS JUSTICE OF PEACE. Since Election in New London Attor- ney Has Moved to Old Lyme. Papers in a quo warranto action to forbid him from using and exercising the rights and authority of a justice of the peace were served upon Attorney Ernest Chadwick of New London on Tuesday morning when he was to have heard an action brought against Capt. Almon J. Murray of the Lighthouse mission in New London. Information in the action was given to Judge Shumway at Norwich Monday and he ordered that the quo warranto action be instituted. Attorney Chadwick, who was elect- ed a justice of the peace In New Lon- don with a term from Jan. 1, 1911, to Jan. 1, 1913, remoyed on Nov. 1 from New London to Old Lyme, becoming an elector there, it Is charged in the information, and thereby forfeiting his citizenship and residence as a freeman in the town and city of New London. The purpose of the quo warranto proceedings is to challenge Attorney Chadwick’s right to act as justice of the peace for New London, since he has now become an elector in another town. Upon the information given to_the superior court sitting here Judge Mil- ton Shumway ordered a rule to.be entered that Attorney Chadwick appear before the superior court to be held in New London at a session Friday, Nov. 29, at 10 o'clock. The case against Murray was with- drawn, the attorney for the plaintiff giving notice to that effect. KILLED WHILE PREPARING DEMOCRATIC JOLLIFICATION.
