with California and brought on quite a
number of specimens of the bark of the
giant trees and the beautiful shells found
on the Pacific coast, which he has dis
tributed among his friends. His hand

SNEAK THIEVING,

During the winter just past, many here
have been annoyed and anxious Is con-
nected with certain sneak thievery which
from time to time has taken place. Most
ofthe operations have been confined to the
closed houses about Lake Waramaug
with the exception of E. 81. Beardsley' 3
place of business in this village, which
has now been entered three times since
last Thanksgiving day. The first time it
was known to be entered, the money
drawer was emptied Of silver. nickles
nd pennies to the amount Of $15. The
second time on Sunday evening, April 3,
the burglar seemed to be satisfied in de-
vouring one box of sardines and reliev-
ing the money drawer again Of 70 pennies.
The third time known, or last Friday
evening, the thief seemed to enter but
one room in basement of building and
although windows and doors show marks
of force to enter further, they were ap-
parently unsucce ssful. Dayton Burn

COMPARISON BETWEEN
BRADLEY'S
Standard Fertilizers
AND
Barnyard Manure.

In order to demonstrate in a way easily I'M
derstood the concentrated form in which
plant foods are furnished by Bradley's Fertil-
lzers, the following comparisons were made
by DR. q. Wellington, Assistant Professor of
Chemistry at Amherst Agricultural college,
He analyz ed a sample of our Complete Ma
nure for Potatoes ard Vegetables, and also
some Well-rOtted farm yard manure, Tin good
average condition, each for ammonia, avail
able phosphoric acid, total phosphoric acid
and potash.
Then, TO show to the eye the vastly greater
quantity OF manure required to furnish the
amount OF available phOsphoric acid contain
cd In 100 lbs OF the BrRdley's Complete Ma
nure, be photographed side by side 100 ID
bag of this brand, the contents of such a bag
In a pile, and pile of farmyar manure, the
bag, the pile of fertilizer, and the pile OF ma.
nure each containing the same number OF
pounds OF available phosphoric acid.
IL took tons and 30 lbs of the manure to
furnish I-lO pounds of available phosphoriC
acid, the amount contained in the 100 lbs OF
Bradleys. IL the manure (weu rotted) we're
placed in bags of the same size as Bradley's
II would take 100 OF them to contain the same
quantity of available phosphOric acid.
Every farmer should, OF course, use the yard
ms nure produced on his farm. Such dem
onstrattOn as the above, however conclusive
ly shows that he cannot afford to purchase
any manure for home application. Much o.
the manure that is offered for sale contains
far smaller percentage of plant food than thai
used In the above demonstration.
