USED BENTLEY CHILDREN'S $12,000 FOR THEIR EDUCATION “All ‘of the $12,000 belonging to the Bentley children went into my hands at some time or other and was expended for their suppor. and education,” de- clared A:torney John C. Geary at the hearing before Judge Milton A. Shum- way in New London Wednesday morn- ing on the apmedl of the Bentley heirs from the account of Attorney Geary as agent for Mrs. Julta C. Bentley, ad- ministratrix of the estaxe of her late husband, Andrew J. Bentley. ~Mr. Geary was testifying regarding the closing of the savings bank accounts of the five Bentley children and as ad- ministrator_de bonus non of the estate of A. J. Bentley and guardian of the children. The declaration came as an answer to questions by Attorney H. A. Hull re- garding the o osing of the various ac- counts of the children. Attorney Hull had introduced as exhibits the several he was asking Mr. Geary about the clos- ing of the accounts. “Why they were withdrawn and de- posited to my personal account, I won't attempt to say.” testified Attorney Geary. “I probably thought it was ne- cessary at the time. At any rate, that is not a part of this proceeding. The hearing Wednesday morning be- gan with Mr. Geary identifying several notes pavable to the order of Julia C. Rentley or order, signed by Mrs. Rentley as administratrix and endorsed by Mrs. Bentey and Mr. Geary. They were nayable at the National Bank of Commerce. There were a series of the notes,” which were renewals of an old note ‘and showed reductions from the original of $4.500 to $3,600, the last note being paid in full after the' receipt by the estate of the $50.000 for the sale of the mlant at Fort Neck. Mr. Geary also identified notes given June 9, 1303. by John Rollo and anoth- er given on Jan, 5. 1905, by John Ca'la- han, father of Mrs. Bentley. The for- mer was for $800 and the latter was for $2,000. . “Why were these notes made payable to Mrs. Bentley personally?” inquired Major -Hull “They were made out that way at her request because she said that the estate was indebted to her,” was the answer. “What became of the avails of the Rollo note?” asked Major Hull hey went to reduce the indebted- ness of the estate to me,” was the re- Y, “Did they go to reduce the estate's indebtedness to you for services?' he was_asked. “Yes,” was the answer. “For services?" interrupted the judge. , o was the quick reply. ‘“They | went to reduee my account with the estate. I wasn't giving the question the attention that I ought,” explained Mr. Geary. Attorney Geary hed no recollection as to why the Callahan note was made out personally to Mrs. Bemtley but sup- posed it was done at her request. He id not know whether the $2.008 was a personal loan of Mrs. Bentley to her father, althoush he never considereq it s0. Attorney Hull Introduced a deposit bank book of Mrs. Bent'ey at the Na- tional Bank of Commerce showing that she had opened a personal account on April 9, 1895, and was closed Aug. 24, 1899, Mr. Geary was asked about ft. “I mever knew Mrs. Bentley had a personal bank account until just before the probate hearing” stated the witness “I did_know she had one as admini tratrix.” M:. Geary said he did not know whether Mrs. Bentley had any other persona. deposit account or sav- fngs accounts. Attorney Hull then Introduced sav- Ings bank books of the Savings Bank of New London in account with Mrs. Julia C. Bentley, guardian of her chil- dren, Abble, Mavid D., Ruth, Andrew J. and Mary. The hooks were each omened on Dec. 4, 1903, with a deposlt of $2,29 The Abble Bentley book was cosed on Sept. 30, 1907; Ruth Bentley book was closed Nov. 20, 1907; Andrew J. Bentley book was olosed Oct. 24, 1907, and the Mary Bentley book was closed Nov. 20, 1907. The David D. Bentley account Is still open in the name of John C. Geary, guardian, and had a balance on July 1, 1921, of $851.79. Mr. Geary testified that the accounts of Ruth, Mary and Andrew J. Bentley were closed by transfer to his account as administrator of the estate of An- drew J. Bentley. Attorney Full wanted to know it it wan true that Andrew J. Bentley's ac- count had been tramsferred to the ac- connt of Mr. Geary as administrator, He inquired if. as a matter of faet, it was not o that Mr. Geary had transfer- red the money to his personal account At the New London City Natfonal bank, “T might have been in error in saying that Andrew 1. Bentley's account was transferred to me as guardian. But I will may thia; all of the $12,000 of the hfidren, with the exception of a small amount ‘standing in David Bentley's ac- count, went Into my hands and was ex- pended by me for the support and edu- sation of the children.” ’ Attorney Hul| insisted that he wanteq An anewer to his question as to whether o not Mr. Geary had not transferred the Andrew 1. Bentley account to his persomal mccount. “T not only adinit that but 1 repeat that all of the money went into my hands and was spent for the ehildren,” testified Mr. State Togent WIIl Visit D. A. R.

In addition to the officers, managers and directors of the co-operative -ex- changes there were present J. 0. Owens; crop specialist, Storrs college, and Mr. Mell, assistant in marketing at Storrs college and County Agent H. F. John- son. Imbert Fellows was elected chairman of the meeting and called on Mr. Owens as the first speaker to discuss the lime situation. Mr. Owens called the atten- tion of the men to the fact that an ever Increasing amount of lime is being used here in Connecticut, but that many of the guarantees of the lime comra at the present time, did mot mean a whole Iot, as they were so variah's in their actual lime. He advised the mct: te vree strongly that the members of k2 various exchanges buy the kind of lims which will cost the least for_the actual lime con- tained. He illustrated his point by call- Ing attention to the price charged by oft of the lime companies n this s Wwhich was a-ound $9.90 per tor. This kind of lime analyzed 1745 pounds of actual lime oxides in one ton or gave a cost for cach 100 pounds of ides of 56 cents. Another qu lime sold in this state woud cost jer ton $7.40 delivcred. This amiivzel 868 pounds of actual lime ‘oxides ia one ton. only about one-half as muci: as tke f. going kind of lme and gi’iag a ¢ 100 pounds of aetual lime ox'des of 82 cents. He pom buying on the cost of actual line oxides m one ton was a much sifer method than vay- ing by ton price. Upon being quesrionol as to the fer- tilizer situation he sad that the plies of nitrate, sul) i and potash in this coumry are al] ve large. ' There s i quostion thut fertilizer manufacturers wish to sell their mixed goods at a reasonable price next spring they can do so. Indications are that they plan to hold their prices up pretty well. If this Is the case it will pay farmers to buy raw chemical fes as they did last year to a co; extent in this county, and mix their 6wn fertilizers. Arthur Shedd, manager of the Preston Exchange, then reported on a m which he attended with the count: per nt at Hartford this past week, at which plans were made by the committeé rep- resenting the co-operative exchanges i this state and the State Farm Federation, to call a meeting of co-operative exchange managers Monday, to decide whether or not state fertilizer pool shall he or Mr. Shedd called attention to a report on the fortilizer , recently publish ed by the Fastern States Farmers' change at Springfield. This report szid that fertilizer agents are more numerous and more active in the New Knzland states than they ever have been before at this season of the A few of tiiese agents upon being -questioned in regard to their avticity, stated that farmers’ co-operative organizations made such a record in their sales la that it is necessary for the regular sale: men to increase their efforts and start soliciting orders at a much earlier date. From all the information that this organ- fzation has been able to gather there is no reason why anybody should be alarm ed or in haste about buying fertilizer and fertilizer material The manufactur- ers of the country are hea stoc with acid phosphate. There are greater supplies of nitrate of soda in the Unit- ed States today than it is believed to be consumed in the next 12 months and in addition to. this it is authentically thought there are 1,200,000 tons at the ports of Chili waiting to be shipped. The supplies of potash are exceedingly large and the market is weak. It was voted by the meeting that fertilizer pool similar to that organi last year, should be organized this year by the co-operative exchanges and that Arthur Shedd should act as head buver for this pool. The question of seed potatoes was then brought up.- There was considerable dis- cussion in rezard to the quality of sced bought last year, sings two cars of faine seed did not prove to be A-1 quai- ity. They were bought from a man whom several of the men in this county sup- posed to be a reputable person to dea] with but apparently he was not caref; the kind of seed which he sold the co-operas ve exchanges. Mr. Shedd reported that several of the potato growers in county accompanied by the crop special- ist from the college and the county agent made a trip to Vermont in August, and inspected a large number of potato fields Bureau all the next o nized. the a this which were lately certified by the State Department of Agriculture. Mr. Shedd said that they were especially impress- cd by the cars which Julian Dimock of East Corinth is using on his 80 acres of potatoes. No greater care could used by any seed potato man to in the auality of his goods, since four girl trained in the knowledze of potato d eases had been busy all summer in go- ing through the fields time and again and pulling out eased vines and any that did not appear as they should in the test. Georze Kahn sald that as near as he svas able to estimate it would have been siness if the men last spring had pald 75 cents more per bushel for the seed potatoes, because it would | have brought them a return of ‘at least § more for each bushel of seed so bought The price of ordirary northern seed last spring was around $1.25 to per bushel, while A-1 certified seed was around $2.20. The sense of the meeting seemed to be that $250 to $3.00 per bushel was nope too much to pay for certified northern seed stock for the com-. ing vear if'it was the right quality. The motion was made and carried that Ar- thur Shedd act as head buver for the seed potatoes to be handled by the differ- ent_exchanges this coming spring. The question of other farm seed was then brought up. Mr. Owens called at- tention to the fact that there was an excellent opportunity for such a group RHEUMATISM LEAVES YOU FOREVER Deep Seated Urle Acld Deposits Are Dianolved and the Rbeumatic Poison Starts to Leave the System Within Twenty-four Hours. Every drugglst in this counfy is au- thorized to say to every rheumatic sufferer that If two bottles of Allenrhu, the sure conqueror of rheumatism, does not stop all agony, reduce swollen joints and do away with even the slightest twinge of rhcumatic pain, he will gladly return your money with- out comment. Allenrhu has been trled and tested for years, and really marvelous results have been accompiished in the most severe cases where the suffering and agony was Intense and piteous and where the patient was helpless. Mr. James H, Allen, the discoverar of Allonrhu, who Tor many years suffereds the torments of acute rheumatisd, de- sires all suffererd to know that he does not want a cent of anyone’s money un- less Allenrhu decisively conguers this worst of all @lseases and he has In- structed Lee & Osgood to guarantee it in every Instance. 2 / a the past through local sources. In New Yorlk state some of the men through their organizations are buying seed dircet from the farmers who raise the seed and are getting only first quality seed. A mo- tion was then made and carried that- J. D.-McCarthy, manager of the Norwich Co-operative Exghange, act as head buy- er for all farm'seed except seed pota- toes. The question of pooling orders for lime was then raised once mora and the fact brought out by the county agent that number of communities in which there are no organized co-operative exchang- es will be in the market for some lime this year. If a lime gool should be organized with Some one responsible in charge it would be possible for. these communities with their local buyers fo buy throush this pool the same as the co-operative exchanges. It was then vot- ed that Mr_ Shedd should have charge of the lime pool since he was already look- ing after the fertilizer pool. Following this there cussion as to the organization of a per- manent standing committee that would be responsible for any future meetings on a county basis or any business to be taken up on a county basis for the, dif- ferent exehanges. Mr. Smith of Yantic made a motion that the president of all the co-operative exchangzes In New Lon- don county act as a standing committee to arrange for any future meetings or business on a county-basis and that the presidents should appoint thelr own chairman. ~ Following the meetinz . the four presidents who were present met and clected Georze A. Kahn chairman of this committee, W. W. Service then brousht up the question of closer eo-operation between the different farmers' exchanges. point- ing out th fact that if a larger number of straight cars could be shinved in a much greater soving would be made since there was an average saving of from $3.50 to $5 per ton through buy- ing in straight car lots over mixed car lots. A ‘motion was made and carried that the managers be asked to work methods of co-operation between the dif- ferent exchanges as far as possible in order that more straight cars may be brought in. Following this the chairman called at- tentlon to the potash situation in this country, stating that there was a possi bility of a high tariff on potash Which would protect what potash industries we ve in such a way fhat the farmers of this country would be paving the bills for the support of this industry and would allow the monopoly of the potash industry. A resolution was then of- fered ‘that the officers, directors and managers of the co-operative exchanges assembled in this meeting urge their congressman to vote azainst any national lezislation pending to place a tariff on the importation of fertilizer used in the production of farm crops.

It is located alongside the Central Ver- mont tracks, making it possible to un- load freight cars right at the building. On the front side of the building there will be a loading platform where the company's trucks will be able to back up and load. The company will employ a force of about 25 here includinz the sales mana- ger, C..N.

The local office will be supplied with =, or eight large auto trucks, and a delivery car. The National Biscuit Company had a branch office in Norwich some time ago but moved it to New London. Their territory in this section has increased about four-fold sipe that time and they have decided to reopen a branch office here as they find Norwich is more centra’ly locgted for their territory than New London.
