ANSONIA.

k. Randall Davidson, travelling sales man for Rogers celebrated wares, has returned from a business trip through Fairfield and Litchfield counties and re- ports the roads nearly settled, circum- stance unusual for this season of the most of the towns with posse of men, assisted by road machines, contrivance to lessen labor unknown to our fore fathers, drawn in some instances by four yoke of cattle, with bull attached as a leader.
 The preparation of the soil for Spring crops is now being furthered with all possible haste. The sowing of oats could be seen at almost every farm. One farmer, as he walked back and forth from one side of his field to the other, sowing the grain, used setting pole to note his progress, from which floated the stars and stripes. If this man had lived in the days of George Washington, he would have been called patriot. To- bacco growers are now getting beds ready to SOW seed. In most of the farm houses could be seen tin pans under the kitchen stove, filled with something looking like phosphate, but which prov ed to be chip dirt, obtained from the heart of old rotten apple trees, pulveriz- ed, placed in pans and tobacco seed thrown in, stirred up and allowed to sprout, which usually takes a week or 10 days. The whole is then sowed in beds prepared for the purpose; from the lst to the 18th of June, the plants are large enough to transplant to the fields. The farmers were so we'll repaid by the weed, last year, that they will, in most in- stances, double the acreage, this year. The woodchuck was seen sticking it's nose out of Winter quarters to get a sniff of fresh air. One farmer shot one which was in good condition, being as fat as in Summer time.

The number of new steamers being pushed to completion at the ship yards on the great lakes would extend over two marine miles, if they were put together bow to stern. Their total ca pacity is 65, 900 tons, and their estimated cost is over $5,000,000. About 80 per cent of these vessels are made of steel. Some of them actually rival the smaller ocean liners in size and freight capacity. The largest lake steamer building is 362 1-2 feet long, with d capacity of 4OOO tons, which, to be sure, is hardly com para ble with the two new ocean liners now being built on the Clyde for the Cunard company. These latter have a length of GOO feet and tonnage of IA LOGO. But the distinctive feature of the new marine architecture of our great lakes is the "whaleback," peculiarly American craft. The great demand for these novel boats is seen in the fact that in one ship yard at West Superior 10 "whalebacks" are being constructed, not one of which is less than 320 feet leng Among them is building the first sswhal.back- ever designed for passen- ger service.

DANBURY.

Those who depend upon their daily callings, are those pinched by the dull times; which is always so, of course, but is particularly so now, and with all who have no reserve fund. Those with cap:- tai are having good enough time. Dan- bury is constantly growing and real es- tate increasing in value. Building is lively; carpenters and masons are in de- mand. The News estimates that an unusual amount of building is in prospect for the coming season, which we believe to be so. Those who lost their buildings by the late fires are able to rebuild and will, which increases the amount of building.
 A pleasant affair, pleasant for an un- pleasant day, was the marriage of Miss Ida R. Pearce of Danbury and Solomon Wright ot New York. The bride is daughter of R. B. Pierce, station agent on the New England road, and pleas ant and accomplished young lady, mem- Der of one of Danbury's wealthy and highly respectable families. They were married at the residence of Mrs David Pearce, Main street, last week Thursday. Another affair in Danbury high life was a closing hop of the dancing club at the Armory, Wednesday night. Some of the leading names in our younger society ar. pear in the list of participants. It is spoken of as brilliant success.

Beans can be easily and cheaply raised in southern New England. In this par ticular, lesson may be learned from the practise of farmers in western New York. All through the section that used to be called the ssGenesee country" wheat was formerly the great staple. Years ago, the farmers discovered that something else would pay them better and now one of their leading crops is beans. A bushel of beans is worth in market IS much as two or three bushels of wheat will bring. Here in Connecti- cut, beans can probably be grown about as cheaply as anywhere. Either the small or medium white, the large white or marrow, or the red or white kidney beans are suited for field crops. Be. cause they will grow on poor land, with neglect, is no evidence that they will not do much better in good soil with sucf cultivation as they require. But the cui tivation is simple compared with thai given to more exacting crops. Prob
 ably there is no other crop that vii
 yield as good returns approximately
 with as little cultivation. They may bt easily and rapidly planted with drill
 but | great drawback to the planting oi beans, q drawback, literally, has beer the slow and laborious work of pulling them by hand. The hardest part of har
 vesting may now be done away with bl using bean pulling machine "a mos
 benehcent device. Beans may also b tlreshed by machinery K

A suggestion of the degree of practical control of electricity already attained is found in the account given by the Elec- trical Engineer of new plant in Cali fornia. A water power is used to generate the electricity. The dynamos turn it out at tension of LOGO volts, then it goes to raising transformers, which increase the pressure to 10000 volts; then it goes off 30 miles by wire and is re-converted, going out for service in two circuits of 1000 and 2.00O volts respectively.

The game law goes into force on

Hunting and Fishing Club, as body
of respectable spo. tsmen propose to
see that the law is not repeatedly
broken by INSCRIPTIONS, carniverous
pot hunters who shoot at anything
and everything just for the Jun of
scattering blood and feathers. There
is also a class of people who will get
up before daylight to reach duck s
nest about dawn and then massacre
tho bird while she sets on her nest.
Such so called spor5 will be attended
to and stepped or else the criminals
for they most certainly break the
laws laid nown in the statute books
viii be lassooed by deputy sheriff
and yanked into the urts to tell
how it happe ed.
There is another little feature the
APPEAL wishes to point cat and that
is the despoiling of birds nests by
boys under the cover of "sc1en>
tifc research" when III truth they
simply clean oat the nest and break
every egg before reaching the ground.
If, by accident any escape destruc-
ton they are kept until decomposed,
and it is then necessary to relegate
them to the back yard There
is also law governing this robbery
and the boys may as well understand
it. The best thing for boy to do,
who can't quit stealing birds eggs
is to amuse himself by ac9', ring the
cigarette habit and thus pass quietly
away.

Burglar" four act comedy. The

dainty bits of comedy as there are on
the stage. Even the famed burglars
scene, whore the outcast presents

The contrast of bright innocent
childhood touching the hardened ma

ience with magnetic sympathetic
power The whole play abaunds in
vital interest. 1t Is fertile in dra>
matte effects, pathos and humor, and
furnishes an evening of rare enter
tainment
