It is evident from orders that are being received that plans are being e for mobflization of the Connecti- cut Home Guard within a very short time. There is a strong probability that within the next few months New Britain will have added to its other manufacturing industries, an airplane factory. Recruiting stations for the United States army as well as that of the navy are being besieged by applicants desirous of enlisting voluntarily in- stead of waiting for the actual draft call. The granges of the state are being called upon to assist in the state-wide campaign to eliminate the non-pro- ducing Nens of the state In order to save grain and add to the food sup- 1y of the state. Joseph A. Serre, one of the best- knewn men in Danbury. was stricken with an attack of heart trouble while walking in a field on his property at Lake Kenosia early Saturday after- noon, _and 1is believed to have died instantly. Now is a good time for garden own- ers in many distyicts who have more beets of the early crop than they can eat in the fresh form and an abund- ance of glass jars and tin cars to can baby beets, says the United States department of agriculture. shifts hayve been made in Home Guard to make up for the resignations and honorable discharges from the or- ganization throughout the state.

That the National Guard units in this state not now in_federal service will be encamped at Niantic for the mustering in and for equipment and the arrangement of transportation to Charlatte, N. C., by the end of this week has been stated at the armory on reliable authority. The harvesting of the hay crop is now well advanced and some farmers have their hay practically all in. The crop this vear is large. owing to the frequent rains, and if there is contin- ued moisture manny fields will prob- ably yield a second crop.

Mr. Leon- ard. who is the active manager of the Rockville Fair Association com- pany, is completing plans for the hig event, which will be held at Hvde Park, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs- @ay, September 18, 19 and 20. The boys of the United States working reserve encamped at Or- ange have made good with the farm- j€rs to sueh an extent that it is im- possible to fill the calls for help and it is necessary now to double the size of the camp, according to Arthur Howe, state enrollment officer. {__Wild blackberries will soon be ripe jand reports from {he surrounding icountry are to the effect that the crop will be very large.

Bullard, vice president of the i New Enungland coal commission, has advised officials that the operators nt the mines working in confunction with his committee, are arrangink to send solid trains of 50 cars through the New England districts. During the week of June 19 eight such trains were despatched. Although the vear's total was hardly up to the standard made from 1915 to 1916, the deposits in the sav- ings banks of the state amounted to $363,602.570.50 on July 1 and on June 20 deposits in the savings de- partments of the trust companies amounted to $31.924.038.64, making a total of $395,526,609.14. Trainmasters and yardmasters on the "Hartford Division of the “New Haven” road have began a census of all employes of the road eligible for military service. The men are being asked to fill out cards setting forth information as to their age, family conditions, and as to whether or not they are included in the first draft. Bridgeport trolley cars may soon be conducted by members of the fair- sex acting as motorwomen and con- ductorettes, according to Manager Charles Chapman of the Connecticut company. Shortage of men and the fact that many of the conductors and motormer: 4vill be drafted are given as the reasons for considering this de- cided innovation. The two things necessary to make pessible the handling of the potato P of the country are: First, stor- age facilities to handle the excess at time: and second, a wide- spread understanding that the pota- to crop promises to be large and should be utilized wherever possible in the diet, in ofder to relieve the pressure upon cereals. The Colt Patent Fire Arms Manu- facturing company of Hartford has received from the United States gov- ernment the largest war order ever awarded to a Hartford concern, and one of the largest and most import- ant ever given out to any concern in any country during the present world war, according to announce- ment made public vesterday.

EXTENDS INVITATION 0 WEST SIDE WOMEN To Visit Community Canning Club at Broadway School Today. The Community Canning club ex- ténds an invitation to every woman on the West e to visit the club rooms in the Broadway school today (Wednesday). If she has string beans that she wishes canned, bring them at 9 o’clock this morning, or soon after, together with her jars, glass topped ones pre- ferred. The price is 90 cents a dozen for string beans. A bushel of beans will fill about 23 pint jars, If she has no beans to can, comé in just the same and help for an hour or so and take a lesson in canning and get in touch with the workers and with this big idea of thrift in food matters which is the popular thing just now all cver the United States. The club wants every woman in the community to see just what is being done. On Thursday a special invita- tion is extended to housewives from Greeneville and_on Friday to those from the Falls. First come, first served, will be the order of the day. Even a bargain counter rush will be taken care of in due time. Four and a half more bushels of peas were put up on Tuesday. Mem- bers of five of the various committees were at work and several volunteers came in to assist. Another cooker has had to be purchased to keep up with the demand. The rédtail stores are do- ing a brisk trade in pint jars and other canning implements since the club began operations and the farmers are having a better market for their peas and string beans. The houscwives are rejoicing in the prospect of a fine stock of food for winter use. But we are afraid that some of the committee are working more than six hours a day. FUNERALS. Mrs. Luke Murray.

LIQUOR RESTRICTIONS IN SWEDEN ARE EXPENSIVE Whiskey and Soda, With Meal, Costs One Dollar. Stockholm, July 24.—Devotees of distilied liquors have fallen on evil ways in Sweden. Restriction after restriction has been placed on sales both oyer the bar and in bottles. Since June 1 it has been impossible to be served with any kind of liquor with- out an accompanying order for a warm meal costing about 40 cent Even then no more than fifteen cen tiliters, about five fluid ounces, of li- quor may be served in ail, and not more than a_third of this may con- sist of the strong brandy which, In Sweden, has from time immemorial, taken the place of the American pre- prandial cocktail, One result of the new order unques- tionably has been a great waste of food, for countless meals are ordered and ‘either left ‘umtouched or also slightly toyed with and mixed with cigar and cigarette ashes by careless people. At the better class restau rants and hotels, “restrictive meals, corresponding to the ‘“property sand- wich” of some American cities, are servedqs These consist generally of one fried egg. Before the recent change in regulations, which prescribe a “cooked, warm” meal, the ‘“restric- tive meal” was wont to consist of an apple or a few grapes. Drinking thus becomes an expen- sive luxury.
