T ; Afioat and Aw 20~ [3 M “WILL TREAT CIT Y WATER TODAY Copper Sulphite Recommended to Kill Fishy Taste and Bad Odor—Inspection of Local Reservoirs Made by State Chemist Bransfield—Fairview Water Clear But Algea Found at Stony Brook. Having made an inspection of the water in both Falrview and Stony- brook reservoirs, State Chemist Ed- ward Bransfield has found the water to be perfectly safe for drinking pur- poses. The water at Fairview he finds is clear and free from ail vegetable growth, but algea to some extent has been found in the water at Stonybrook. Algea s a vegetable growth, perfectly barmiess, but its presence in the water gives it a fishy taste and bad odor. To free the Stonybrook water of this fishy taste and bad odor a solution of TODAY Procrastination is the thief of health: Keep yourself well by the timely use and help of BEECHAM'S PILLS e ST Rt copper sulphite will be placed in the reservoir toda Three weeks ago the usual spring test of the water in both reservoirs was made, when samples were sent to the state laboratory. They were pro- nounced O. K. for drinking purposes. Later complaints started to come in to Supt. Edwin L. Burnap, and on Monday of this week he sent another shipment of samples. A complete: re- port has not yet been returned on these last samples. As far as the testing has gone, however, algea has been discov- ered. Superintendent Burnap was no- tifled by telephone of the discovery of algea in the samples. Friday State, Chemist Bdward Bransfleld came to Norwich to make an examination of the water in the local reservoirs. - State Chemist Bransfleld satd that in his opinion the fishy taste and bad odor would disappear in a.weck's time if left to nature, but inasmuch as com- plaints have been received he advised that the copper sulphite treatment be applied so as to remedy the trouble as soon as possible. The copper sulphite will be placed in the water at Stonybrook today, and between seven and eight hundred pounds will be required.. It will take all day to distribute the copper sui- phite through the water at the reser- voir and a force.of four or-five men will be employed on the job. It is ex- pected that it will be two or three days before the mains will be in good shape. This treatment will end the trouble for this season, provided there are no heavy raine. It is a rather ex- pensive treatment, and for that reason it is hoped that one application will be sufficient for this season. Superinten- dent Burnap says that this is practi- cally the same method carried out in purifying the water at Spalding’s pond when it was used for drinking pur- poses during the drought several years ago. The copper sulphite method has been endorsed by Engineer Jackson of tHe state board of heaith. State Chemist Bransfield told Super- intendent Burnap that Middletown and Meriden have experienced similar trouble with their reservoir water this spring. Water is now being used from both Fairview and Stonybrook reservoirs. Supt. Burnap advises local textile manufacturers to keep a close watch on the water for several days as it is liable to discolor cloth and yarn. HOME GARDEN PLOTS Secretary Branche Announces the Latest List of Assignments. Secretary H. R. Branche of the chamber of commerce has assigned home garden plots to the following: Vincent Dermont, John Walukiewicz, Mrs. Simon Sernak, Mrs. Annie W rontack, Josephine Zelinsky, Sam Lo- winisky, John Walka, Alex Partugel, Leon Krankewicz, J. Pordurgal, Stan- islam Kotetki, Mrs. Mary ~Depinto, Mary Pavolofki, Nikoden Zdancewicz, Bertha Kisley, L. E. Harris, Mrs. Isa- bel Pagano. The Connecticut Committee of Food Supply has a large number of high school boys available for farm ser- yice and now awaits wora from the farmers of Connecticut that .me boys can be used on their farms. These boys are enlisted in the Connecticut Junior Agricultural Volunteers and the state division of the United States Boys'. Working Reserve, and . stand ready to go into farm service for the summer as their patriotic duty in the national crisis. Arthur Howe, who is a former cap- tain of the Yale football team. is the chief enrolling officer of the school boy farm volunteers. Mr. Howe made the following statement concerning the school boys who are avaiiable for farm work. “About 200 high school boys who have volunteered for farm work re- main to be placed. The Connecticut Committee of Food Supply In cooper- ation with the county agents have al- ready placed forty of the Connecticut Junior Agricultural Volunteers and their work on dairy and market gar- den farms is giving satisfaction. Our office is crowded daily with boys who are readv to take up this work and they are being signed up as readily as possible. “Within the next two weeks all vol- unteers should be placed. Local camps are being planned to provide for har- vest, canning, and mid-season work, so that all applicants will have an opportunity fo do real service in help- ing with the present food crisis. Up to date the good, clean-cut high school boy has proved of zreater worth to the farmer than the average shifting laborer. These boys want a real job and they will stand by it. “One farmer, who took some of these agricultural volunteers for work on his place said to me, ‘the boys I got from you are making good. I am tired -of the tramp labor I have had to put up with lately and the boys are a great relief!”” The following has been issued to the boys of Conmecticut by A. J. Brundage, state club leader: Join the State Corn Club and be- come eligible for $200 in state prizes to be distributed pro rata to the 15 boys making the bést showing. Boys under 16 vears of age raise one-half acre, bovs over 16, but not over 18 years of age January 1, 1917, ratse oné acre. Beside raising corn each corn club member is required to keep a record of all time and expense, write a story and exhibit 10 ears of corn. We need more corn raised in Con- necticut to help in the present emer- gency. Tt is one of our staple crops and can be raised at a profit. The average net profit of corn club boye in the state for the past two vears has been 357 per acre. Beside making some money, boys can also be of pa- triotic service to the state and nation by raising corn now. To join the state corn club, send sour name to your county agent or to the Connecticut Agricultural College Extension Service, Storrs, Connecticut. Boys’ and Girls’ Clubs. Instructions will be sent as soon as names are received. Enroliment closes June 9. RUBE DANCE AT THE ELKS HOME Held Under the Auspices of the Bos- ton Convention Club.
