Camp Holcomb for instruction of recruits for Connecticut commands, which are now speeding towards the Mexican border, was completely fed- eralized Thursday when Maj. Edward A. Shuttleworth, U. S. A, who has been infantry instructor for the Con- necticut National guard, assumed full command. He will shortly appoint of- ficers to conduct the camp, these be- ing the reserve officers of the National guard already here under orders from Adjutant General Cole. The hard work of getting recruits into condition for camp life, and to give them military knowledge suffi- cient to enable them to be handled in detachments larger than corporal's squads, is well under way. The ma- terial is very green, but there are enough militiamen left to give stead- iness to the aggregation. The number in camp will soon be a thousand. Ad- jutant General Cole, Colonel. Wise, Colonel Schulze and Major Ives will continue to have their quarters here to look after the administration of the camp. Adjutant General Cole on Thursday ordered Co. M, First Infantry, which has been encamped on the Colbrook road near Winsted, since the mobili- zation call, to march to camp. When the command arrives, some day hence, the men will be examined. If there are any traces of measles the com- pany will return to its station. 'l‘too"&’A. cavalry, New Haven, on Thu received its orders to be ready to leave. Tents were struck and at noon equipage was piled up ready for the baggage wagons. Captain Woif said he was ready to entrain just as soon as the order came to do so, but he thought that, judging from delays in order departures, it would be eve- before the command got away. ttery F of Stamford at the East Haven range, will not go south at this time. Orders are awalted as to the disposftion of the six batteries of fleid artillery for the drill period of sev- eral weeks, it being expected that they will eventually be brought together to be maneuvred as one unit. Yale batteries will go to Niantic very soon for four weeks of intensive training. They are now seeking 12 horseshoers and 14 cooks, with good prospects of getting the men, and are awaiting quartermaster supplies from Philadelphia. As soon as these get there the men will depart. Enlistments are coming along fairly well for Yaie organization. On Sat- urday of last week there were 358 men enroiled, on Monday, 402, on Tuesday 484, and Thursday morning’s Toster shows 490 men. Battery A has 141 men, Battery B 126 men, Battery C 117, Battery D 106 men. Peace strensth for the four batteries is 532 men, war strength, 584 men. Additional men are needed to make up regimental and battalion staffe. Inocculation against smallpox and against typhoid is to be started im- mediately. The Yale batteries have beenh short of equipment, as is well known and they haven’t been able to get any. There was a determination on -the part of the men to get as much equip- ment as they could and a lieutenant accompanied by some. of the battery members went to Hartford and paid a visit to the arsenal Troop A of New Haven left the state camp grounds here for the Mexi- can border at 6.12 o'clock Thursday night. The cavalrymen were not ready to leave with the rest of the Connectiqut militia because mounts and equipment were not in readiness. The troop was to have entrained early in the afternoon, but there was considerable delay in loading the cars. The men were given a rousing send-off. by _the rookies as they left the grounds Recruits still are coming into camp and medical examinations progressed rapidly. ‘With the federalization of the camp, Major E. A. Shuttleworth U. 8.

A fleld meeting of the New London County Farm Bureau is to be held at the farm of Director F. P. Barnes in Preston on Saturday afternoon. There will be a short meeting of the directors of the Farm Bureau at which time the county agent’s report for the month of June will be given and general discussion of the work done, after which a #ip of Inspection will be made over the farm, covering co- operative demonstrations and trial plots and other items of interest on the farm. Mr. Barnes has a large general farm on “which he Is carry- ing with the Farm Bureau tests for field corn, oat variety test, soy bean test, and has a field section shows clearly the advantages of liming flelds for grass.

Palmer's noted alfalfa plece is nearby. and will be inspected, Spraying Notes. Do not delay spraying potatoes at once if you have not atready done s and remember that spraying means that you should cover the stalks and leaves thoroughly. Some people have the idea that they only need to spray for bugs, while this is important yet It is very important to spray with the Bordeaux mixture for the blight. It is proper to combine with the Bo: deaux the poison for bugs, thus sav- ing valuable time. Formula For Stock Solution. For the larger operations where Dower sprayers are used, ns¢ two 50 gallon barrels to have plenty of room to stir the solution bewre dipping it out. In one barrel place 35 pounds copper, sulplate in a bran sack or a loose woven bag, and suspend from the edge of the barrel just high enough so it will be covered by the water. In filling the barrel to. ' the required height pour the ‘water over the sus- pended bag containing the copperas. For the lime solution, slake in the regular way, 35 pounds of good Stone lime taking care not to let it burn or to use too much' water to drown it. After thoroughly slaked strain put in barrel make 35 gallons. This is your stock solution. . For your. spraying mixture take four (4) sulo?l of the copper solution and four (4) gallons of the lime solution and add. to these two Zalions,. This mey e wsed i Tacger ons, s may s ‘or smaller quantities as long as proportion is kept the same.

In epraying the *ach alternate spraying should iven in the opposite direction as this rethod has shown better results cov- ring the vines more evenly with the ixture. Aim to use at least 50 gal- 'ns of mixture per acre for each praying with plenty of pressure to ive off a fine mist. More will be re- juired if the spraying is done by “and. i Use poison in the Bordeaux only | vhen needed for potato bugs, as it is » needless expense if there are no wgs. Watch them carefully.

One of the rich men has xid, “Thrift is such a simple thing 1d it means so much. It is the undation of success mn business, of ntentment in the home, of stand- * in society.” Tne motto of boys’ and girls’ clubs Thrift. Members are taught to nserve soil, moisture, time, mate- money, strength and health. The and girls today, who are to be the men and women of tomorrow, must be more thrifty than the present generation if they are to succeed. Thrift does not mean _closeness, stinginess, meanness, It does not rows, mean denial of the gooa things of life. In the words of a certain writer, thrift means “being industrious in whatever you undertake; spending money wise- ly, wasting nothing, whether time, money or materials.” Planting corn that will not grow is waste, waste of seed and time. The corn club member tests his seed corn to prevent this waste. This is thrift. TFeeding hens that no longer lay hatching pullets out of seasonm, put. ting eggs on the market In poor con- dition is waste; culling out the loaf- ers, getting pullets to lay in early winter, grading eggs and marketing regularly, is thrift. Doubling the potato yleld by hill se- lection of sced, is thrift. Canning the garden products that may otherwise g0 to waste, that are better and cheaper than any that can be bought is thrift. Knowing the value of money becauge of having worked hard for it, thereby buying more for a dol- is thrift. ing one's own clothes, learning to cook simple dishes appetizingly, is thrift. ese are the problems of boys® and girle’ club members, who are learning the lesson = of thrift. lar, NIANTIC TRAIN FOR RHODE ISLAND BATTERY.
