Mr. Ricketts will be introduced by Presidept Cary as the first speak- er of the evening. The, letter fron¥ Commlssloner Rop- er says: “It is imperative that all taxes due the government upon 1917 incomes be collected. This is obvious. It is alsq highly desirable that those who are spreading sedition and hampering the successful prosecution of the war by assertions that “this is a capitalists war or a “war by the wealthy for their own aggrandizement” be answ= ered with the truth. To allay the doubts and fears of our peéeple, some- times fostered by a lack of Bard hil ting facts with which ther can count- er — is a great service in times like these, and a vital necessity, as well. Chamber of Commerce has heen busy the past week asaisting members and others to fill out their income tax returns. - The government has fur- nished the Chamber of Commerce of- fice document No. 841, known as the ‘¥ncome Tax Primer,” prepared by the Bureau of ‘Internal Revenue for the tion and assistance of the taxpayers. — THREE CORNERED CONTEST AT MOOSE ELECTION Frank B.

The home gardeners of Connecticut are to hove help in combating: the in- sect pests in their gardens this sum- mer, according to a letter to the War Bureau .of the State sent from the headquarters of the Committee of Food Supply, Connecticut State Coun- cil of Defense. by C. C. Hemenway, Chairman of the Home Gardens De- partment. Mr. Hemenway also worns the War Bureau that the available supply of supervisors fo be had from the Conmecticut Agricultural College is practically exhausted and that com- munities not already supplied should take immediate steps if they expeet to secure proper supervision this yea¥r. Mr. Hemenway'’s letter is as folws: “Professor H. J. Baker, Director of Cooperative Extension work in the te of Connecticut, réports that the mnecticut Agricultural College has already réveived more requests for garden supervisers than can be sup- plied. He therefore urges that com- munities should secure someone in their own locality who is qualified for garden supervision work and send this person to the Connecticut Agricultural College for the speciol course designed for training garden superyisors, which course is to be given between April 18 thd April 20. Unless this is done, Professor Baker believes many com- munities will find themselves unable at the last moment fo secue a garden supervisor. Inasmuch as Supervision is rnecessary if gardening is to be a success, Professor Baker believes thet communities cdnfiot be urged too strongly to moke this provision. “I also desiré to inform you that George M. Codding, Special Fiéid Agent on entomology of the Federal Départment of Agriculture, has been sent {o Conuecticut to give field de- monstrations on insect pests in con- neéction with the war garden work. Mr. Codding will probably visit- your community during the garden season to make a survey of the situation with reference to the supply of insecticides and spray materials and equipment for thefr use. He will be subject to call to.give field demonstrations when- éver any pest develops and can be reached through the Farm Bureau in vour county. Heé is especially assign- ed to protect the war gardens of Con- necticut from insect pests and we trust | tha you will not hesitate to avail Yourselves of his services any time The War Garden Food Commission, they become necessary. Maryland Building, Washington, D. C. has prepared an excellent war gardea mnn%el which can bé secured throush ome Gardens Department of the Connecticut Committee of Food Supply by any committee which desires to purchase these boks for general dis- tribution ot the cost of $15.00 per thousand. If you desire any of them we should be glad to be notified.” Found Ground Giass in Jelly.
