The grounds of divoree were dntolerable cruelty since Dec. 1, 1920, FARM BUREAU WORKING ON VARIETIES OF CORN How many varieties of corn are grown in New London county? Which ones are best for silage or for husking? These are problems being tackled this year through the cora demonstrations which ars being carried out in different com- munities through the farm bureau. The other day two demonstrations were put in on farms in Lebanon, one on the farm of Elisha Waterman; the other at Fred Abell's. It isn't always the variety that.counts most but where the variety was grown. For instance, Mr. Waterman had just bouglit some Sweepstakes corn put .out by the International Record Association at $5 per bushel. On his demonstration plot this was put in alongside of some Sweepstakes seed bought direct from a farmers’ association in Pennsylvania that cost only $3 a bushel. Who knowr which is best? Or whether either of these are as good as the other varieties which were put in like Leaming, Masta- don, Eureka and Webber’s Dent. A large number of farmers in this county plant Leaming corn and through the farm bureau demonstrgtions an at- tempt is being made to find vut where the best Leaming seed is grown. Can we successfully select our own seed corn here for silage purposes, can we depend on local dealers, or should seed corn be bought direct from farmers who grow it in certain localities? These are questions of tremendous importance to the farm- ers of this county. To throw some light on this problem, one lot was picked up from a farmer in this county who grew it last year; another lot was bought from a local dealers; and still another lot was bought through the Cooperative Seed Pool organized by the Farm Bureau. And what of varieties grown in this state? Webber's Dent and Mastadon-are two varieties that do well in other parts of Connecticut, but are not well known in this county. There is one big factor in favor of these varieties the same as with Leaming bought from Ohio and the Sweepstakes bought from Pennsylvania. If they prove to be worth while varieties, it is possible to secure a quantity of This seed direct from the growers. When seed of unknown origir is bought through jobbers, it is seldom that anything is known about the grow- er. If it is possible through this farm bureau work to point out the better va- rieties of silage corn to grow in this county and also to locate reliable sources of seed where this corn can be obtained year after year, preferably from the actual growers, this work will have been of considerable value to the farmers of New London county. A number of farmers are cooperating in these demonstrations. Already silage corn demonstrations have been put in on the following farms: Irving Main at North Stonington; Tom Frusher at Edst Lyme; Nethan Strong at Lyme: Elisha Waterman and Fred Abell at Lebanon. Field corn demonstrations are located on these farms: Isaac Geer at Ledynrd and H. J. Larkham at Norwich; L. Smith at Franklin; Earl Smith n Montville; and S. C. Beebe at Norwich will each put in a silage corn demonstra- tion within a few days. James Lord at Stonington and E. P. Barnes and Son, af Preston are cooperating in-field corn se* lection demonstrations in an attempt to improve considerably the quality of white flint corn which they grow. COMMUNITY PICNIC WITH SINGING AT LOWTHORPE Although lowery weather prevailed with now and then a ray of sunshine mingled with rain drops, one hundred and seventy-five people assembled at Low- thorpe Meadows Friday evening for the first community plenic of 1922. This an- nual event under the auspices of the Norwich Rural association brings to- gether a company of people representing old and young to enjoy this ideal loca- tion; the gift to Norwich of the Gilman family, - which maintains their beautiful home and spacious grounds adjouining the meadows. Included in the gathering i were representatives from the Rotary |/ club of Norwich, also the Norwich Town Men's League, to which invitations had been extended by Grosvenor Ely, presi- dent of the Rural association. Many came in automobile, somz by trolley, while those who lived nearby walked to the meadows. Just after six o'clock the box- es of good things were opened and lun- cheon enjoyed by the several differant Ds. TFollowing thie, the community singing which proved a delightful feature, took place under the pines. In the absence of Rev. Alexander H. Abbott, who had been announced as song leader, a quartetts comprising Grosvenor Ely, Philip John- son, Dr. Charles H. Lamb, and Joseph C. Worth, came forward a‘ the suggestion of President Rly and led the chorus in the following selections: ~ Old Black Joe, Annie Laurfe, Old Folks at Home, My Old Kentucky Home, Dixie, How Can I Leave Thee, Juanita, Love's Old Sweet Song, Home Sweet Home and Good Night Ladies. Several numbers were repeated by request. A chorus of young girls led by Presi- dent Ely sang Americz. The fine singing by the quartette and chorus was given with spirit and inspiration, bringing the happy event to a close at eight o'clock. GERMAN CHURCH CHOIRS GIVE JOINT ENTERTAINMENT The men’'s choir and the women's choir at the German Lutheran church on Franklin street held an enjoyable social Friday night at the church with a programme that included selections by both choirs and a well rendered gano solo by Miss Margaret Seidel. efreshments were served. e e 4 Artist Visiting at Quaker Hill Prof. John R.
