RS e S ST R R e STl TR TN WHAT GREAT BRITAIN IS DOING ON FARMS Outlined by Expert of the British Agricultural Board. Washington, May 8$.—What Great Britain is doing on farms and in the homes to meet the German threat of starvation was outlined today by H. D. Vigor, an expert of the British agri- cultural board, who is attached to the war commission now in Washington. Early in the war, Mr. Vigor said, the British minister of agriculture began to organize the department to stimu- late food production. The farmers: were approached through local com- mittees with advice and offers of modern machinery, much of it of American manufacture. Hundreds of American steam plows were imported and set to work on the farms: women and girls took the piaces of men in raising crops. By combination the local committees secured large quan- tities of . fertilizers which were dis- tributed . to farmers at cost. The townsmen turned their energies 1o 1'.e waste and unoccupied lands around the towns. A system of allotments was | augurated by which the owners of such lands permitted it to be worked at a nominal fee. Lots of 150 by 70 feet were developed in countless num- bers a’l over England. Mr. Vigor said it was safe to say that these lots would produce all of the vegetables needed to feed England except pota- toes. Regarding the prospect for wheat, Mr. Vigor said he feared it was too late to add much to the British crop this vear, and four-fifths of the needs of the isiands must be imported from | America. The great store of wheat in Australia cannot be utilized because of the lack of transportation facilities. On the other hand. a big crop of oats is expected to relieve the demand | for wheat in somé measure. Also. if the potato crop next year meets ex- pectations, it will diminish the demand | for wheat, which is now bearing the :rden of shortage in tubers. Regarding meats, he said the British produced a good deai of home grown cattle and that was made sufficient for the troops by additions of the Argen- tine refrizerated meat. For bacon and hams they were dependent altogether upon America. ' STAFFORD SPRINGS Edwin L. Burr, 70, Goes to New Haven | to Collect Rents and Fails to Return —Family Alarmed—Patriotic Rally Friday Evening. Miss Annie Mason of Woonsocket has been the guest of Miss Hazel Butterfield for the past few daye. Miss Gertrude Ott of Deep River, formerly a teacher in the Stafford public_schools, has been the guest of Miss Marjorie Eaton. David Bissett has been added to the list of automobile owners. Mrs. W. H. Webster and son William have moved to Southbridge, Mass. Miss Mary Kane of Boston has been in town to see her uncle, John Kane, who is ill at the Johnson Memorial Lospital. Patrsotic Meeting. There will be a patriotic meeting in Stafford _Springs, probably in ._the Comique_theatre, Friday evening. Hon. Charles Phelps, formerly attorney gen- eral and two other speakers of state reputation will address the meeting on Our National Needs. Edwin L. Burr Missing. Considerable anxiety is felt over the disappegrance of Edwin L. Burr, who went to New Haven on a business trip a week ago last Tuesday and has not yet returned. He was expected home ihe same night and his family are un- able to locate him. He went to New Haven to collect rent for property he owns in that city. The tenants say that he collected the rent and then left, intending to take the train home. Nothing has since been seen of him and inquiry at police headquarters in New Haven has been of no avail. Mr. Burr is 70 years'old and at one time he was subject to severe fainting speils. It is thought that he might have suffered from one of these. It seems strange, however, that he has not been identified. as he had papers on his person which would easily lead to identification. What They Stand For.
