The Hubbard Hose company of Mid- dletown, visited this city on Thursday and a most enjoyable time was had by all, considering the damp weather. There was 7, parade through the prin- cipal streets after which a cold colla- tion was served at the home of Steam- er No. 2, on the West Side. The Hose company returned to Middletown aft- er passing a most enjovable day in our midst.

MAKE FINAL SPRINT IN STORRS CONTEST Hens Laid Total of 3472 Eggs During Forty-second Week. The hens in the laving contest ‘at Storrs, have made what is perhaps their final sprint for the year. In the forty-second weck they laid a total of 3472 or an actual gain of nearly 100 eggs as compared with the pre- vious week's vield. This means that all the in the contest, good, bad and ndifferent, laid, last wesk, at the averaze rate of nearly 50 per cent. The five hest pens for the week all bail from Connecticut. Ciifford 1. Stoddard’s _White - Leghorns from Woodbridge were an easy first with a yield of 56 eggs. Merritt M. Clark’s Barred Rocks from Brookfield Center won second piace with a production of 54 ezgs. Three pems of Leghorns entered by Windsweep Farm. Redding Ridge, M. Peasley, Cheshire, and Francis F. Lincoln, Mt. Carmel, were next in order with vields of 52, 51 and 50 eggs respectively. Thus it can be seen that these five laid 50 per cent. more eggs than the average pen. Eight Barred Rocks, one White Rock, four White Wyandottes, seven Rhode Island Reds, three White Orp- ingtons and two White Leghorns or a total of 25 hens made perfect in- dividuals scores for the week by lay- ing 7 eggs each. Obviously these are are sort to retain in this season of ultra high prices of feed. Not only this, but these hens that persevere and lay through September and well into October, are believed to make the very best breeders for the next sea- son’s work. DAIRYMEN'S DAY ve Were Entertained at the East Side Farm. nty- At Uncas farm, conducted by N. E. Whiting, East Great Plain, enthu- slastic dairvmen and women gathered on Thursday to see the result of his reading, thinking and doing. He knows how much it costs to raise a cow to milk production. How much each cow has earned per vear, throuzh the keeping of records of milk pro- duction. It was an inspiration to the men ard women. to see the result of s eral vears' work and the upbuilding of his herd of spiendid prcducers and his fields of corn and soy beans and corn and cow peas for silaze, his fields of clover and soy beans for hay. | A spirit prevailed at the meeting which indicated a keen interest upon the part of those present to improve existing conditi consisted of top ns.

An interesting discussion was entered into here as to the relative merits of the different cows. Prof. W. 1. Slate of Connecticut Agricultural College entered into a discussion on the feed values of the roughages raised on the New Lon- don county farms after which a,_tour of the farm was mads. To our Tigh was several acres of corn and soy beans for silage, the corn consisting of one-third Eureka and two-thirds Leaming, a combination which Mr. Whiting thinks ideal, passing on through a second cropped field of clover we came to a fleld of sov beans planted for hay which came waist high. Next we came to a splendid field of corn and cow peas extended for silage. Prof. Slate discussed the nutritive value of the different crops, stating that corn and soy beans for silage had greater food value than corn and cow peas for silage. He urged them to grow legumes and in this way supply thelr sofl with nitro- gen and organic matter, which are so essential to a rich soil. Though it rained during the day the spirits of the men and women present were not dampened. ‘The season is growing late and soon the perishable material will be gone by. The government is asking the housewives of the country to let mo perishable products be spoiled or ‘wasted. Monday Laurel Hill had a demon- stration at the school house which was attended by 28 women and girls. Tomatoes, strig beans and peaches were canned by the cold pack method. Tuesday. a demonstration was held at Yantic in Palmer hall, 333 women and girls were present and corn, to- matoes, blackberries and peaches were canned. Wednesday, at the church in vaker Hill, a drying demonstration was given: corn, apples and peas were dried also one jar of peas was canned. Thursday, In Baltic at the ‘Town hall, 45 women and girls wit- nessed the canning of corn, tomatoes and blackberries. Mrs. Burr of that town has had a simple inexpensive home made drier placed ‘g one of the store windows. It is nne,}ahn can be made in any home and nfay be used over any type of stove and the pro- ducts wil] dry with a great deal of satisfaction.

CHAPTER Proceedure to Be Followed in Relation to War Relief Societies. The America Red Cross, through its general manager, Harvey D. Gibson, issued to the Norwich chapter and the 2,300 other Red Cross chapters throughout the United States a state> ment, setting forth the procedure the Red Cross will follow in relation to other war relief societies. The Red Cross will, from time to time, supply its chapters and socie- ties of which it may have record, the following information: 1. Names of particular classes of articles most needed and the total 2mount required. 2. Amount of each class 2. of arti- cles which the different chapters or the different socleties will be asked to_produce. 3. The time fn which it is desired such articles shall be made and de- ered to the Red Cross. Present needs are especially for knit- ted articles, surgical dressings, hos- pital garments and comfort kits, in the order named. After expert study and censultation with physicians, surgeons and other relief ‘societies, complete standarflized directions for making the articles men- tioned have been prepared. Standard patterns have been adopted for all hos- pital garments required, agd all pat- tern companies will issue identical pat- terns, which will be knowns as “Red Cross Patterns.” Any garments made according to these patterns will be acceptable to the Red Cros: Until these new directions and pat- terns are 4n the hands of Red Cross chapters, any of the above articles mada by other societies will be ac cepted by Red Cross chapters, if of- ferrd to them, handled on the same basis as Red Cross articles, and with- out expense to such contributing So- ciety deliverea to the nearest Red Cross supply station. The general policy of the Red Cross on th P subject is set forth by Henry Davison, chairman of the War uncil, in the following statement: “The Red Cross seeks to cncourage the efforts of all relief organizations. It is hoped that all such organizations, which are manufacturing materials for hospital or other relief work among our allies in Europe, may become aux- iliaries of the Red Cross, thus awold- ing duplication. Such auxilfaries will retain their name and identity, the Red assist them in making their and with such affilia- tion the Red Cross will transport their materials to Eaope free of charge, and see to it that such materials are properly distributed. “Many war relief organizations have solicited centributions in kind. Some of the artigles solicited have been necessary; others, while given in a spirit of a fine generosity, have not necessarily been of great benefit. Yet other articles have been sent to Burope which were not needed at all. Pressure upon shipping space has become very intense, and 1t Is abso- lutely peeessary that for the present nothing be shipped abroad which is rot imperatively needed. Ocean ship- ping difficulties become greater each day the submarine warfare is con- nued. The Red Cross cannot pro- vide shipping arrangements for arti- cles other than those whi its investi- gations in Europe show to be requijr- ed there. “It is the hope that organizations vhich have devoted themselves mere- v to collecting funds will, after hav- ing used their present funds according to the designation of the donors, di- vert \their efforts to soliciting funds which\may be utilized along lines for which experience acquired abroad shows a paramount need to exist. “The Red Cross has dassumed ad- minristration of the War Relief Clear- ing House in France, and will con- tinue itz functions. By reason of the reat pressure on the French railways, it will be impossible for the War Re- lief Clearing House to arrange free transportation after September 1 for articles other than those which may be designated as essential in the pres- ent emergency. Tn the meantime, the American Red Cross has been_co-operating success- folly with the War. Relief = Clearing House in the United States in assist- ine the various relief organizations to n the utmost possible space for shipping to Europe from American ports. Evervthing offered thus far has been shipped abroad. “It should be understood. however, that the situation as to relief organ- ations which prevails now as com- pared with that before the declaration of war by the United States, is wholly Qifferent. _Prior to that time the American Red Cross had to be neu- tral, whereas, fhe various relief otzan- ions were under no such obligation. obt With our entry into the war, the Red Cross became free to exert’ itself in any way which. within the kcope of its eneral activities, might aid our allies and allied peoples. “We earnestly_hope that no one will feel that the Red Cross desires to do anything but help. The Red Cross is an American institution, chartered Fv the United States zovernment, and the president of the United States is its president. The organization be- longs to the American people, and seeks In this great world emergency to Go nothing more and nothing less than to co-ordinate the generosity and the effort of our people toward achieving a supreme aim.” WILL SEND THOUSANDS TO CAMP DEVANS. What Drafted Men Will Be Expectec to Do. Early in September Connecticut will send - thousands of her sons to the na- tional army cantonment at Camp Devans, Aver, Mass. there to frater- nize with many more thousands of sons of New York and New England states and learn the art of soldiering under Uncle Sam's Plattsburg graduates and army officers wall versed in military #rt as practiced today in Europe. The national army will be composed of drafted men between the ages of 21 and 31. These men will for the most part be fit physically to undergo the course of training which has been pre- pared for them. Their surroundings wilt be-ideal. Fverything will be done to make them happy and comfortable— rlenty of warm clothing, wholesome food and amusements will be provided, aleo good barracks to live in and the very best of sanitary conditions. For the most part this army of men will have had no military experience. Just what will be expected of them be- yond the general term discipline and obedience to orders puzzies most of them. TIn time all will know what are their duties and the rules and regula- tions under which these duties are to be performed. The average American, however, likes always to have an in- sight into his future. When there Is something to happen which concerns him he wants to get posted in ad- vance. Therefore he will be interested to learn in a general way what the rules and regulations are that have Dbeen prepared for his information and gnidance as a member of a company of the national army.

No civilians will be allowed to enter the cantonments except friends and relatives of members of the company, and then only after specific authority has been obtained from ar officer of the company. Members of a company will discourage visitors coming during training periods. They will be welcome on Sundays and holidavs, but must not into squad rooms where they “fere with other members of the company. Only clothing issued by the govern- ment is authorized to be worn.

All men are positively forbidden to borrow, loan, trade or exchange any zrticle of ‘clothing or equipment with- out first obtaining permission in each instance from the company command- er. Mex on fatigue will wear the proper fatigue uniform. The company commander will always be ready and willing to aid the soldier and give him advice. His time should not be consumed with trivial -affairs that can be attended to by squad and platoon commanders. Courtesy de- mands that the latter be consulted first. No loud or boisterous nofse will be permitted in_quarters. An identification tag will be fur- nished each soidier. They will be worn when equipped for field service. At inspections, when the equipment is displayed on the beds, they will be hung by bed., No intoxicating liquors of any de- scription will be allowed in barracks. No one will be allowed in the dining room, except at meal time, on duty or Ihen sent there by superior author- i the tape to the foot of the 0 books, papers, magazines, etc., will be taken from the company libra- ry without authority from the man in charge.

Soldiers will not treat themselves or engage clvilian attend- ance without permission from their <ompany commander. GIRL REFUSED AID. Yacht Captain Threw Rachael Epstein © Life Preserver and Line. Canpt. street. Groton, is probably the last person to see Rachael Epstein, who was drowned Saturday off Ocean Beach, alive. The captain says: “Safurday afternoon we were com- ing in from our fishing trip with a yacht. the, name of which I do not feel free t6 give, just ahead of us. All at once the yacht captain changed his course and I remarked to my company that he was going to tack and there was no need of it. In a minute I saw my mistake and said that it looked as if they had lost something overboard. Just then I saw the head of a swimmer in the water at the stern of the vacht and supposed it was some ome of the party who had gone over for a plunge as they frequently do from the boats. “I was' surprised to seé the boat £0 away from the swimmer and was minded to stop but took my eyes from the figure for a minute to look at the lighthouse and on looking back it was gone. I must have been the Jast one to_see her alive, for that it was Miss Epstein is certain to my mind. “The yacht I spoke of lald up at Fastern Point and I talked with her captain about the incident. He said he offered the girl aid and 1t was re- fused. Fe told her she could never make the lighthouse, but she said she had done it before and could agaln.
