STATE The average amouwat of debt per farm in Connecticut was §2185 in 1920, =as compared with $1,309 in 1910, according to “statistics compiled by the bureau of census of the department of commerce. ‘The figures are compiled from the 1920 census of agriculture and are only pre- liminary, subject to correction. In 1920 the number of farms in this state reporting mortgage debts was §,137, ® decrease over the 9,062 which report- ed in 1916, The value of the land and buildings show a large increase in the ten-year period between the two censuses, being at the last census 355,781,194 as compared with the $37,906,308 of 191). The percentage of increase is 47.2. The amount of mortgage debt in 1920 was $17,860,949; in 1913 it was §1l.- 859,488 or an increase of 50.6. The ra- tio of debt to value per cent. shows a negligible increase from 31.3 to 32.0. The average rate of interest on farm mortgage in 1920 was 5.7. The average value of the farms reported has increased in the ten-year period over 30 per cent. from $4,138 in 1310 to $6,855. These statisties relate only t6 farms owned by their opérators and repofting amount of debt. Those farms whose op- erators hiré additional land are not in- cluded. No attémpt was made by tie census bureau to obtain information with regard to mortgage debt operated by Mmanagers or tenants. The figures for the whole United States show a greater increase in value per cent of the farms but the average per farm is considerable higher than it is in Connecticut, whereas in 1910 there was littie difference. seriptions hy over 80 Norwich people T R CHAUFFEURS AND MAIDS WERE IN AUTO CRASH The limousine that turned over Mon- day night on.the curve at the submarine base belonged to A.

Both women guffered mafy lacerations and cuts about the bedy and arms and fate, which reqlired an hour to sew up. The chauffeur, Who was in tne rear seat was seriously injured about the face, arms and body. He also required many stitches. The driver escaped with miner injuties compared to_the bthers. The passéngers refused to give their names to thé sailors who took them to the hospital and even refused to tell the physician who attended them. . The antomobile was raised by a garage crew after four hours’ work. It was be- spatterad with blood ; the body caved in, bent and broken; the mudguards were twisted and crushed.

Some time ago the farm bureau executive committee for the county instructed the agents to talk over with the edifferent communities the possibilities of Nolding field days. It was felt that three or four held in different parts of the courty would be much better attended than one large field day at some central point in the county. At Goshen the committee met at the home of E. H. McCall and drew up plans to hold a field day in Goshen on Tuesday, Aug. 9th,"at the center of Goshen by the schoolhouse. E. W. Jones and Edward McCall were elected to look after the sports for the men, while Mrs. B. R. York was chosen to look aftés the sports for ithe women and children. The tentative program as drawn up is something as follows: In the forenoon a poultry cull- ing, killing and picking demonstration; at noon a. basket lunch from 1 10 2 p. m.; a brief address by two well known speakers.” From 2 p. m. on, sports. $pe- cial interest is being taken in looking up the possibilities of a team of six men who Wwill work in & tug of war to meet any other teams from other comimuni- ties. K. W. Jones, who is in charge of this, has track of three men who will take part and expects to have his team completed in the near future. There wilf| also be a baseball game during lhe after- noon. The North Stonington people are plan- ning to hold a farm bureau field day on the grange fair grounds on Wednesday, Aug. 10th. A good deal the same pro- gram will be followed as is planned for| Goshen with the exception that the dairy | judging demonstration will be held in the | morning instead of a poultry culling and picking demonstration. The members of the committee charge at Goshen are Mr. and Mrs. | in E. W. Jones, Mr. and Mrs. k. H. McCall, e B. R York, Elmer Geer, Mrs. Elisha| Waterman, The members of the committes in North Stonington are Mr. and Mrs, J. D. | Avery, Mr. and Mrs. Ellsworth Gay, Mr. and Mrs. ‘Clifford Thompson and Harry Lewis. —_— STORRS HENS HAVE LAID TOTAL OF 120,000 EGGS The hens in the ‘aying contest at Storrs are still easing off a little in the matter of egg production. In tha thirty- seventh week all pens taken togetner laid 3526 eggs or a yield of a little wver 50 pér cent. This brings the grand total to date to more than 120,000 eggs. Hill- top Farm's White Leghorns from Suf-| field, Conn.,, proved to be the best pen for the week with a yield of 5 from Cooperstown, was sccond best pen with a vroduction of 53 eggs. Two other pens of Leghorns ownzd by ! Orchard Hill Farm, Sandy Creek, N. Y. and Burchell & Janson, Thetis Ial;mi B.| C., tied for third place Wwith 52 eggs, each. 'Three other pens of Leglcrns| from Ridgefield, Conn, Argyle, N. Y, | and Geneva, N. Y., tied for fourth place with 51 egss each. Thus it is perfestly apparent that the Leghorns are now laying more than their share cf the egas. The mite season is now at its height. If one's hens are not now laying as many summer eggs as tyey ouzht ard if thé young stock are not growing as| well as they should it would be a good scheme to carefully inspect their sieep- ing quarters for red mites. The experi- enced poultryman can easily detect this pest; if present in large numbers te will be aware of the fact by a peeuliarly | pungent odor inside the hen houses. The best plan of procedure at this season of the year is to carefully inspaot the underside of the roosts and also their supports and palnt them with carbolie acid and kerosene, or better still with carbolinetum In ecase any mites are found.
