BUILDING ROAD FENCE FOR TRAFFIC PROTECTION For the protection of the increased traffic on Shenecossett road enroute to Eastern Point the highway department of the borough of Groton is having a substantial fence built in place of one which was bulit at the order of Morton F. Plant several ‘years ago. The fence which has been bordering the road on a compound curve near the Eighth district school house became unsafé after many years of good service. At this point for several hundred feet the spot is con- sidered dangerous as the road is buflt on a fill several feet high on the curves, and it was deemed necessary to con- struct a substantial fence on both sides of the road. The posts and timbers for the fence are being obtained from the borough property surrounding the water supply reservoir with only the cost of cutting and hauling. The first fence was con- structed without cost to the borough by Mr. Plant, who passed on the road ome day. aw the posmbilities of preventing accidents and ordered a eomtractor te construct the fence.

The zathering of noted animals at- tracted -wide attention and the parade was closely followe by thos: desirovs of seeing the type of animmal’ so “seldom seen ‘about the country. - Many cf the.an- imals in the parade were champions at various expositions and faire -held .in this country. . People wishing * to take pictures of their favorites: wer>’accom- modated .and .the -campus was filled with darting picture takers. The crowning event of the wesic as far as the “inner man” was concerned took place soon after 530 o'clock when a beef steak barbecue was ‘held “on’ (3ard- ner Dow Field back of Hawiey's acmory. Over one ‘hundred formed in line' and after getting their meal gathered in groups about the field to enjoy a barbe- cue such as only farmers weeik chefs could produce. A new attraction -to Farmers Wesk this year was-the meeting of ‘he England Tobacco Growprs' Assoc and the Connecticut Tobaces (irowers' Association. It is expected that 'n an- other vear the meetings of th: tabaces growers will be larger and meetings will be held at the college annua v du Farmers' Week. The Sheep Drive ‘The sheep drive took place as scheduled on the college campus and a large num ber watched the intelligent dogs do the bldding of their master, ani brinx the sheep to any point on the fiell he desired. The morning program ovened at nine o'clock when members of the Connacticat Poultry Association met at the home of Professor Fitts, and witnessad a culling demunstration by R. E. Jjoaes, exten- sion poultryman. The culling !emonstra- tion completed the activities of the weck for the poultry association. *Members of the Conneatiomt logical society and Comnecticat Veg Growers Association visited the. coiloge orchards in the morning and learncd from Professor S, P. Hoilistyr many of the varfeties of the farm orchard. At another meeting those intoreted i lecting seeds for farm gardens - the Main building and heard a.t A. E. Wilkinson, extension specia'ist in vegetable growing. Many tvpes cf te2ds were shown and Mr. Wilkinson .dem- ontrated how the best seeds could be picked fromthose of poorer grade: The Connecticut Beckeepers’ Associa- tion meeting ended with lectures Thurs- day afternoon but many remained for the barbecue and this morning another dem- onstration in bee handling was given at the apiary. Tobacco Growers Hear Lectures Members of the New Enzland Tobacen Growers' Asociation and the Connecticut Tobacco Growers' Association met ‘at the main bui'\ng a §1 heatd lectures by three speakers, Progress in wildfire .investigations have distlosed ‘that much of the trouble is in ‘seed beds, said Dr. G. P. Cliriton of the Connecticut Agricultural —Experi- ment Station. Tobacco growers must take special care of their seed beds, and resort to spraying and In this manner, T Dbelieve, there will be less danger:of wild fire spreading. Sometimes however, Wi fire notgvisible in'the seed.beds shows fip in the feld. Be careful not to use seed beds, showing wild fire developmen:. Much of the cause of wild fire in this state 'is because of the wet season we have had dyring the past two years. Jn dry weather wild fire doe not seem fo spread as rapidly. Tobacco Varieties Made to Order. was the subiect h\gen By Dr. D. F. Jcues of the Comnecticut Agriculturagl Experimeni Station, = Slides, were used- to. illustrate the growth of fobacco, of bmands that have been crossed.

In the siidss usad Dr. Jones showed examples of ~orn, toma- toes and plants that had bean srased and the pure strain develonel untii n better plant had been, secursd.’ This is what is hoped for in tobaccy experi- ments. Hints on Contrelling Pole Swenf There is no danger of nole sweat nntfl after tobacco has begun to yel'sw When the leaf has come to color there is no opportunity for pole sweat to devetam, said Dr. G. H. Chanman of Massachu- setts - Agricultural College in his tilk on Problems in Tobacco Curing. The organisms which produce ' piole sweat do not develop at temperatures Fe- low 60 degrees F, nor do they Aevelop at temperatures much above 95 dezrees F.. and what is more importan:, they do not develop when the relative hu- mided is less than 85 per cent. Tt can be seen that the regulation of humidity is the only proper method of prevention and control of pole sweat. When the temperature of the air is rais- ed, the relative humidity becomes lower, and for every increase in temperature of 8 degrees, the relative humidity fs lower- ed by about half. Prevenf Pole Sweat ‘We can regulate the humidity, and, to u certaln extent, the temperature in our £leds by firing and, from what has been stated, -t can be seen. that if we raise the temperature .in the sheis from 15 tc 18.degrees above that of .the sutsids air, “ve will reduce the humidi:y much below €5 per cent. and prevent pole swear, even in_extreme weather, To .do this successfully, thare must e plenty, of top and bottom ventilation, to allow the warm air to carry. off the water picked up in passing tbrough. the ‘obacco. The temperature of the air * the shed should ‘not be taken at the bot- ‘om tier, but preferably’'at ome or twn Doints in the second or third tisrs. Ther. must be sufficient ventilation, and fres wmust be continued until the out-donr hu- nidity has lowered to a point where there ‘s no further danger. Use a larze num- Ser of small fires; charcoal.is. the most eatisfactory material. Do no: fir: tod strongly when the tobacco IS in the “aponge” state as there.is danger of scalding. Do not allow the tobaces te dry out during the firing until it 'becomes brittle or crumbly ; if this happens furher curing is st ‘While it is possible for w. grower.to determine closely when weather condi- tons are conducive to mpoie swears, it much safer to hawve a hyzremeter to ai'l n determining the relative numidlty. No epecial tvpe can be recommended, as ail “ave their faults. Whatever trpe :s se. lected, the instrument shonil be stand- ardized from time to time. Firing has been unsuccessful m. some eases, due to the fact that many.of our sheds do not have sufficfent rod? ven- dlation,: or ~end ventilation, sto operate well during extreme of temperaturs and humidity. It should be kept in mind also that during the curing, particuiarly when firing, that day {emperaturos are higher shan ight temperatnres, aniithe ha- midity fs a rule is higher dirnz the night, ‘Fires, therefore, shenld bz more earefully tended to at might ‘thar during the day. ' ? Dairymen heard an interesting: taik by J.A.lgd.—notmwo:hem- i 7 yany today,. following the calf. feeding demonstration at the Small orchari pas- wre. The demonstration was n chasge of Professor L. M. Chapman. Ia tne afternoon “following the parade. o® live atock and machinery they met at the col- lege- aridy barn where Professir R. C. Fisher demonstrated the value of using modern- milking machines. The ‘cieanli- ness of the milk is much® higher by use' of milking mach@>s t'#n by the ol-l methods, and the demand for grad milk is increasing. The danger of 'n- fected milk is lessend and the pricess of milking is done in a sanitary way. The meetings of the Connecticut Skeep Breeders' Association and the Connect cut Swine Growers' Association largely attended and lectures in fitting horses and beef cattle for shows wcre held at the tent near the dairy building. “Horses and cattle owned by the college were brought before the audience and tae speaker outlined the/work ‘accomplished by the college in placing. their horsss and cattle in various expositions and tairs In New England states. The sto.k ‘Yrought before the audience was prizs stock and represented some of the best their class in the countrv. In the morn- Ing Professor H. L. Garizus spoke on sheep improvement, and sheep parasite control was éxplained b Professor Geo. H. Lamson of the college. A sheep dem- onstration was held at tve sheep farm on Spring Hill. Problems to be met in raising of hogs were explained by Dr. L. ‘L. Dalton, deputy commissioner or domestic animals and a demonstration of sheep fitting was conducted by R. E. Begg, sheep specialist at the college. Culling the Farm Flock The woman's prozram for today dealt with incidents of interest to the house- keeper and Mrs. L. B. Crandall and ) €. Mason of the college spoke on the se lection of household furnishings. R, E. Jones, extension specialist of the col- lege, gave a demonstration of culling the farm flock, at the poultry building. Professor D. E. Warner showed various methods of preparing fowl for cooking. The late afternoon programme was three fold pictures. be- ing -shown at the main building. Child health, - school lunch and home conven- lences, were pictures and covered sub- Jects of interest to the women. The evening entertainment for the fin- al night of the week was an impromptu one. Games were enjoved by the men an the athletic. field and in the armory ‘he usual evening of fun’took place. The Wooden Nutmeg, a Farmers’ Weelk pub- lication made its last appearance before the barbecue, the editor believ that people would have little time for reading | when the cooks brought out the evening meal. It was announced that another Farm- ers’ Week will be held mext vear and every vear, and interesting programs will be aranged. A careful study of the Deople attending the meetings held during the week discloses that the farmers -vere there to.get more knowledge on suljzcis that mean success to them in can their business. The change f: session to our of doors damo attracted many and the people w during the week numbered several thon- states, sands. They were from many some motoring to the college nadian cities to hear the speaX INCREASE IN NUMBER OF OPERATORS’ LICENSES Lack of employment coupled with stricter enforcement of the automobile laws is responsible, in the opinion of officials of the state motor vehicle de- partment, for the jump from 2733 In 1910 to 14848 in 1921 in the number of persons in Connecticut having ep- erator's licenseg in excess of the num- ber of moter vehicles registered. This increase of 12,115 operators’ licenses due to the above circumstances means'a to- tal of $48.460 in the state treasury in the form of license and examination fees. Officials recalled - that once before when industrial conditions = were dull there was a sudden leap in the number of licensed operators in excess of cars reglstered but the situation this year is also attributed in part to the fact that the highways of . the. state are being more closely watched by inspectors of the motor vehicle department for drivers of cars having no licenses. This in- creased patrolling of the highways has amply paid for itself as the above fig- ures show. The effect of close serutinizing of drivers has also brought many persons who summer in Connecticut, to:the de- partment's office for a license instead of risking it without a license, as in pre- vious years when patrolling of the high- Wways was not so thorough. Frequently on Monday, following the Sunday when inspectors had checked up the drivers of cars in the resort sections, a large number of drivers appeared at the cap- itol for operator’s license, officials said, although they had not been caught by the inspectors. The vigilence of the in- spectors -had had its effect. There are 'also many more women coni;. 3 the wwmen proved 'to be g00d drivers when given ‘driving tests| by department inspectors, showing -that they had driven.the car considerably be— fore but without a- license. Driving without an “operator’s license when : enforcement eral. memberg ‘of the family owning a car, probably drove the car, when cnly one had an operator’s ‘license. Bit the fact of slack conditions in“the factories giving many ‘men leisure ‘has led ma: officials believe, to venture -farther and more frequently from Hhome with . thelr || cars, an- undertaking, they do: not mow enter upon without a lcense. — STATE COMMISSIONER &R OPPOSYS $10 AUTO TAX The pioposa! of Andrew W. Melln, secretary of the United States tesasury, that-a fed'ral tax of. $10 might be lald on every antomobile in the land t pro- vide revenue to.meet the high cost of government, is not looked upon :with"fa vor by Robbins E. Stoeckel, state com-|| In " discuse- i missioner of metor vehicles: ing the proposal of the: federal treasur- er, Commissioner Stoeckel sail that -he thought the automobile in Connasticat was bearing abou. all the: tax - burden that could - reasonably bLs lvaded on it and that he did not think that a flat tax of $10 would be justified. %S, Commissioner Stoeckal pointed out that Connecticut had a system of deter- mining the registration fees that was not in force in any- other statc in the Union and that had added 50" per cent. to the income derived by tae 'state frem this squrce. This systsm was made effective by the recent session of the legislature which also passad a law. im- posing a gasoline tax of one cent per gallon. “Residents of Connactient’ know that every cent collected in those ways by the motor vehicle depar<ment 3oes to the state highway department and expended for better roads. That fact makes it possible for us tc ask a scire. what higher registration fes tham som: states charge and yet have th> auto- mobile owner feel that ha is gotting a square deal. The - money - is spent di- rectly for better roads for him !> use. But the imposition of a federal tax of the nature suggested woald be an tirely different matter and I am inclis to think would not be fuir to Ton: cut motor owners.” Commissioner Stoeckel invited a.com- parison between the highways of this state and those of any of the adjomning ones as proof that the Conmectient sys- tem was productive of good roads for automobile use, ATLANTA PEISON CHAPLAIN ENDS VACATION The Angust “God Words,” the pub- lication of Atlanta, Ga.,. federal prison, where this month there are 2192 ¢on- victs, has the following of local Interest by a prisoner who signs himself E. K.| P. Father Michael J. Byrne was the cele- brant of the solemn high mass in Nor- wich, Conn.—the town of his birth—on July 3rd by special invitation at the laying of the cornerstone for a . new church. June 22, 1913, Father Byrne celebrated his first solemn high mass in St. Patrick’s church in Norwich, having been ordained a priest in St. John’s Ca- thedral, Altoona, Pa.,.on the previous Tuesday. His eight years of priesthood, four of which have been spent as chap- lain in the prison here, have been fraught with much ‘good work—work that can be measured only by the stand- ards of eternity. E During Father Byrne's ‘absence,. Rév. Francis Marren, S. ‘M., of the Marist College, Atlanta, said mass at the prison July 3rd and 10th. It was the first real vacation Father Byrne had had for the past two years, and the extreme heat encountered on his brief stay in Boston and New York was not conducife to much recreation. The roof of the chapel, which was se- verely damaged during a hail storm ‘In May, 1817, and which hag heen left un- repaired for four years, delaying the completion of the decoration of the chapel, will ke one of the very first things the new administration will have repajred. -Orders to that effect have al- ready been issued. The new confessional, which was plan- ned and approved of somse time ago, will be started as soon as the needed lumber arrives and under the supervision of Mr. Dunaway. the foreman of the carpenter shop. This will add to the beauty of the chapel. Spates, who was employed as sacris- an and sexton, has been released on pa- role, and his place has been filled by Smith, whose interest in the work has been evidenced A by several improve- ments, among them the construction of three racks back of the wall benches in which are kent the newspapers and magazines to which the men hels them- selves on Sunday mornings.

LIGHT CROPS LOOKED FOR IN NEW LONDON COUNTY Prospect of a.light harvest this vear in New London County and in the state in general is shown in the crop survey of the state as accounted by Sec. L. H. Healey of the state board of agriculture. Apples and potatoes are sicrt of ex- pectations of a month ago. The hay crop is considered. nearly normal. “The final returns of the August cen- sus,”. says Secretary Healey’s report, “in- dicate that the hay crop will approach 92-94 per cent of a full crop; peaches. 56-60 per cent; potatoes, 33-35 per cent, and apples 34-40° per cent of normal har_ vest.” According to the report m<st of tie hay crop has been harvested and sev- eral counties report 90 per cent of this year's crop under cover. Continuing the repcrt says: “The results obtained are mot fore- casted from a few farmers' observations but ‘represent reports made to the state board of agriculture in response to sev- | eral inquiries covering the best farms in each county. “Cold weather reversed fruit grow- ers’ outlook on the apple crop ,even though one of the heayiest blooms of fruit trees ever experienced was in evi- dence this year. Peachés were generally damaged in the upped counties, but those of the lower counties escaped with a fair crop. “Where spraying was conducted thor- oughly the potato crop is reported as be- ing in good shape but dry weather re- duced the early crop seriously.” No growing fruit was damaged by hail in Hartford county ,according to the re- port while much of the county's hop crop was damaged by poor weather. There was much damage by hail in the towns of Durham and Middlefield in Middle- sex county. Following are, details of the returns for New London Wind®am and Tolland counties: New London County—Apples, 20 to 75 per cent. Peaches 75 per cent; good fruit. Potatoes 50 per cent. Tay light to 70 per cenf. Much yet to cut. ‘Windham County—Apples 20 per cent. Peaches 2 per cent. Potatoes 65 per cent. Hay 90 pér cent 95 per cent har- vested, some hurt in getting. Tolland County—Apples 10 per cent. Peaches 100 per cent. Potatces 50 per cent.' ay 100 per cent crop; 90 per cent harvested.
