TOLLAND DAIRYMEN HOPE TO FORM LOCALS Committes Appointed at Moeting Superior Court Room. A meeting was held in the Tolland superior court room, Memorial building, Tuesday, by the Tolland County Dairymen, to hear the reports of the delegates appointed the Farm Bureau to attend the ng- land Milk Producers’ association. The meeting was called to order by the chairman, R. A. Sikes, of the Dairymen’s association of county. C. D. Way, one of the delegates, re- ported that there were 200 milk pro- Aucers from all over New England at the meeting in Boston and were very enthusiastic over the proposed XNew England Milk Producers’ association, as a means of obtaining better prices for their products. All of the dele- gates voiced the idea that milk was being produced at a loss. A consti- tution was adopted. which planned for locals in every county in New Eng- land, said local to be organized by five or more people in any one town. It was also voted that the president of each local should be a delegate to the county organiunth;. It was also de- cided that every town that had more than twenty members should be en- titled to an additional delegate to the county organization. The county or- ganization which must have at least three locals named the delegates to represent them in the New England essociation. C. D.

He stated that a resolution was offered by Prof. Sanborn of New Hampshire urging the dairymen to procure the same price for their milk in the sum- mer as in the winter, as it cost prac- tically as much to produce milk in the summer as in the winter. It was his belief that there would be nv surplus of millk in the summer and that it was a very poor excuse for lowering the prices to the milk dealers. The reso- lution urging a uniform price the year round was_adopted at the Boston con- vention. Mr. Way was under the im- pression that the movement would re- sult in the formation of a strong or- ganization. H. P. Collins, who was the other delegate to the Boston convention, al- =0 agreed with the report of Mr. Way ang stated that he expected excellent results as the outcome of the Boston meeting. _ Mr. Collins declared that he thought every town in the county should -have locals whether they were shipping; their output to. Boston or mnot. Way further stated that he be- lieved that all of the farmers in the county should give the organization full support, as it would tend to strengthen all the other associations in the state. ~ After hearing the two delegates a motion was made and seconded that the report of these delegates be ac- cepted; it was so voted. It was vot- ed that the county agricultural agent communicate with all the towns in the county and get in touch with the coun- ty farm bureau workers who had charge of the dairying end of the work to see If they can form a iocal in each town.

Copenhagen, Feb. 15, via London, 5.00 p. m.—Warrant Officer Hardy of the American gunboat orpion, sta- tion ship at Constantinople, arrived here Jast night from Constantinople after an experience of arrests, deten- tions and trials covering the period since the announcement of unrestrict- ed warfare. Hardy left Constantino- ple January 30 and, as he was wear- ing a uniform, was the object of sus- picion from the outset. He was taken from the train at So- fia, Budapest and Vienna and in each instance was .permitted to proceed. ‘When he fell into the hands of the German authorities at Dresden, how- ever, he was detained in a military prison for three days. Thence he was forwarded to secret service headquar- ters at Berlin. After an investigation he was per- mitted to proceed to Warnemunde, where he was again detained before being put on board the ferry for Den- mark. The Germans apparently fear- ed he might be carrying information, for he was subjected to the full course of acid washings and scientific meth- ods of detecting communications writ- ten in sympathetic ink. Hfs uniform and effects were searched in the most thorough fashion.

Vestal Centre, N. Y.—"I am a farm- er 74 years of age and got into a weak, run-down condition as & result of the grippe. Our druggist suggested Vinol to build me up and I noticed an_improvement soon after taking it. and it has restored my strength so | can now do a good day’s work. My wife has also taken Vinol for a run down condition with splendid results.” H. W. LESTER. The reason Vinol is so efMefent in buflding up strength_ for weakened, feeble, old people is because it con- tains beef and cod liver peptones, iren and manganese peptonates and glyc- erophosphates, the most successful tonics known. We wish every persop in Norwieh who is suffering from' a. weakened, run-down, devitalized condition would try Vinol on our guarantee to return their money if it fails to. benefit. Broadway_ Pharmacy, G. G. Engler, Proprietor, Norwich, Vinol is seld in Willimantic by the Wilson Drug Co., in Danielson by the A. W. Wiillams Pharmacy, and in Putnam by J. ¥.
