Tn this screaming effort, telling of Charlie’s breaking into society through the finding of a note dropped from the balcony of the home of an heiress, he finds himself face to face with a se- ries of difficulties. Her father has promised her hand to an unworthy count, while she at the psychological moment drops a note from her ba-- cony, begging the finder to save her. Charlfe hies himself to the front door of her home and announces himself as the count. As the correspondence had led to these nuptial proceedings with- out the parties never _having met, Charlies is received with great pomp by the delighted father. He is non- yiussed however upon the arrival of the real count, and Charlie beats it with the girl to the exterfor where they enter a jitney and dropping their nickel, start upon a wild ride. Pur- sued by the parent, they madly dash over hill and plain, through the woods, across creeks, in which the autos run both backwards and forwards and col- lide several times, finally Charlie loads his jitney with his inevitable bricks and is as a cornered cat when they DOGS WORST ENEMY OF SHEEP ON FARM American Flocks Would Double if This Menace Could be Removed. ‘Washington, April 12.—The num- ber of sheep in the thirty-six farm states, which do not include any in the western division, could be in- creased by 150 per cent., it is esti- mated, without displacing other live stock. Some authorities believe that the increase could be even as much as 500 per cent. without serious in- tereference with the number of other animals. An increase of 150 per cent. in these 86 states would mean in money $144,267,000. In a new publi- cation of the Department of Agricul- ture, Farmers’ Bulletin 652, the re- sponsibilty for the loss to the coun- try is laid upon the sheep-killing dog. Sheep-killing dogs, it is sald are the principal cause of the marked decrease in the number of sheep on American farms. In the 10 vears be- tween 1900 and 1910 the number of sheep in the country, exclusive of the states in the western divison, de- creased 8,000,000 head in face of the fact that during these same years the market value of sheep rose so rapidly that the total value of sheep in this area was $19,000,000 or approximately 25 per cent. more in 1910 than in 1900. Favorable though the market conditions were, they were not a suf- ficient incentive to induce farmers to risk the heavy losses from stray dogs. The number of sheep killed annual- ly by dogs cannot be stated exactly since there are many cases which are not reported at all. Judging from the figures in those counties and states in which reasonably complete reports are obtainable, however, it may be said that in the 86 farm states more than 100,000 sheep are killed, each year by dogs. This, it is true, is less than one per cent. of the total num- ber of sheep in this area but a one per cent. loss on a business that is being conducted on a profit basis of five or six per cent. cannot be ignored. This estimate it must be remembered is also probably much lower than the actual figures. It is certain, too, that many men have been kept out of the sheep business through fear that in their own particular cases the loss would be much more than one per cent. Any one who has ac- tually seen sheep Kkilled, injured, or frightened by dogs is likely to think twice before engaging in the business. In many cases while only one or two sheep may be actually bitten, the whole flock is chased until it dies from exhaustion. If the dog question could be sat- isfactorily disposed of there seems to be no reason why the number of sheep in the country could not be in- creased to the extent already indi- cated. In Great Britain there is one sheep or lamb for each 2.5 acres of the total area. In the 36 farm states arrive to attack him. The picture 1s one wild scream. Other features are “The Fast Mail's Danger,” Hazards of Helen; Hearst- Selig Weekly, and Joey and His Trom- bone, an Edison comedy. SOCIETY DANCING CONTEST’ At the Davis Wednesday and Friday Evenings. In_addition to the big show now at the Davis, the Musical Follies will hold a soclety dancing contest on Wednes- day and Friday evemings this week. Many local dancing experts have en- tered for this contest and a real en- joygble time s promised. There will be $10 in prizes given each night and anyone is at liberty to take part in the contest, which will be conducted prop- erly, and_everyone will have an equal chance of winning the prizes. Every Wednesday and Friday these contests will be held and different society dances will be engaged in and a differ- ent one danced at each contest. NORWICH PLAYGROUNDS. Annual Reports and Election at Meet- The annual meeting of the Norwich Playeround assoctation will be held this evening in the Board of Trade rooms, Thaver building, beginning at 7.30 o'clock. At this annual meeting complete reports will be given by all the officers and a new board of officers for the ensuing year will be elected, The playground movement is one that appeals strongly to the public and the officers and members of the local associatiop are to be commended for the useful efforts with which they have promoted a recreation system that has been production of a good deal of good amongst the young people of the community. It is expected that there will be a large attendance of members at this meeting tonight. Aside from hear- ing the reports of the officers there will be a general discussion of plans for carrying on the movement this year, 80 as to get the best results. YANTIC Fire Company Elects Officers—Wom- an’s Guild to Be Entertained by Mrs. Charles Carpenter of Norwich—Many Incubator Chicks. At the regular monthly meeting of the members of the Yantic Steam Fire Engine company, the 5th of the month, the annual election took place, result- ing as follows: Foreman, Hermon J. Gibbs; first assistant, Edward Smith. second assistant, Myron Ladd; treas- urer, John Weiler; secretary, Charles N. Congdon; chlef engineer, Winslow T. Willlams; first assistant, James Hart; second assistant, Elias Stockett; stokers, Roscoe Bentley and Charles Smith; librarian, Howard Bishop. The steward is to be appointed. Rodney Taylor was elected a member of the company and three members’ names proposed to be acted upon at the next meeting. Noted Here and There. ‘Mrs. Albert Eldridge and daughter Hazel of New London are spending in this country there is one sheep or lamb for each 31.8 acres. The Brit- ish farmer handles his land on an irtensive basis and feeds his sheep on forage-crop pastures. Such pas- tyres not only increase the fertility of the land but also free the sheep from many internal parasites con- tracted through grazing upon perma- nent pastures. In particular the use of a succession of forage-crop pas- ture will prevent stomach worms, one of the most prevalent and disas- trous scourges of young stock, and will enable the farmer to market by the end of June or the first of July, ‘when the market prices are usually the highest, the lambs that were born in the late winter or early spring. Handled under such conditions and on high-priced farm land the import- ance of a small flock of sheep con- not be overloked. In addition to pointing out these facts the bulletin already mentioned, The Sheep Killing Dog, discusses the possible means of preventing in the future the loss from dogs. At the present time the varlous state laws on this subject differ widely, some states using money obtained from dog licenses to reimburse sheep own- ers, while others permit the sheep men to recover damages from the dog owners and to offer them no recourse ‘whatsoever. Dogs, however, are very seldom caught in the act of killing sheep. It is always difficult to deter- mine their owners, and where the damages are paid by the state directly from the dog-tax funds the money very frequently is far from sufficient to meet all the claims. A remedy that is suggested for this situation is a uniform state dog law embodying the principle of a tax upon dogs sufficiently heavy to discourage those who are not willing to take care of their pets from keeping them. Under this plan all dogs over six months of age must be licensed each year, the tax paid at this time of licensing and a metal tag bearing the license num- ber attached to the dog’s collar. Any dog found without this tag, unattended and off its owners premises, may be killed. When found unattended on a farm where sheep are kept the dog may be killed whether it has the tag or not, and under any circumstances a dog caught chasing or killing sheep may be killed. All dogs which can be proved to be sheep killers must be killed whether caught in the act or not, and a reward of $15 should be of- fered for any one identifying a sheep- killing dog. The money received from dog taxes should be devoted to reim- burse sheep owners for their lost stock and the county should in turn recover this money whenever possible from the dogs’ owners. A special li- cense should be issued for kennels where large numbers of dogs are maintained* under such conditions that they cannot possibly do any harm to neighboring flocks. ‘While some such plan as this is probably indispensable to the full de- Vvelopment of the sheep industry in the United States, there are cases where the flock master will find in its ab- Sence the use of dog-proof fences very desirable. The grazing of sheep upon comparatively small areas of land sown to forage crops, instead of upon permanent pastures in larger fields materially reduces the area to be fenced and makes this a practicable precaution. In the west fences have some time in town at Oakridge farm, guests of Mr. and Mrs. John R. Mc- Hale. Miss Mary Rose O'Hearn has re- sumed her studies at the Academy of the Holy Family, Baltic, after spend- ing the Easter recess at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs, Stephen O'Hearn. Miss Margaret Welch has returned to her home in New Haven after a brief visit in town at The Colonial, where she was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Mackenzie, Miss Agnes Woodruff was a recent visitor in New London. Mr. and Mrs. C. Bailey of Salem have moved to the Bozrah creamery, where Mr. Balley is employed. To Meet With Norwich Member.

A fence of this character can be bullt as follows: Posts 7% feet in length, set 2% feet in the ground and 16 feet apart; a barbed wire stretched flat to the surface of the ground; three inches higher a 36-inch woven-wire fence having a four-inch triangular mesh; five inches higher a barbed wire; six inches higher a second barbed wire; seven inches above this a third barb wire. Total height 67 inches. It is important to remember, how- ever, that the bottom strand of barbed wire must be stretched flat on the sur- face of the ground at all points. If necessary the ground sould be grad- ed before the fence is built. Thereaf- ter such small holes as appear may be filled in. It is not always necessary to fence the entire pasture, for dogs usually attack sheep at night only. If a sufficient area can be fenced to give the flock protection during the night, therefore, they must be safely left in uninclosed pastures through the day. This method involves a cer- tain loss of time in driving the sheep to and from the inclosure, but in many cases will be preferred to the expense of fencing on a large scale.
