The large ana increasing circulation
of The Iowa Homestead in this county
is matter for congratulation to the
publishers and to good farming, for, of
all the papers of its class in the coun-
try, it is easily the best and most help
full. Its Special Farmers Institute
editions, issued with the regular edition
the first week in each month, have been
for years the admiration of all practi-
cal farmers. Written wholly by farm
ers, they are full of actual experience,
and smell of the soil. We have been
fortunate enough this season to secure
terms for The Homestead and its Spec.
ial Farmers Institute Editions, together
with The Poultry Farmer and The
Farmers Mutual Insurance Journal,
four of the most valuable farm publ
cations in the country, that enable us to
offer the four in connection with our
own paper for $3.50 for the entire five,
one year. This is emphatically a good
thing, and no farmer in this county
should fail to take advantage of this
offer. For large line of thoroughly
practical farm reading nothing has ever
been offered before that equals it. A
county paper, q farm paper, poultry
paper, q farm insurance paper and the
Special Farmers Institute, all for ST. 80.
Come In and order them.

TO PRESERVE THE OLD ELMS
A MEETING OF INTERESTED CITI-
ZENS HELD LIST NIGHT
and Gas Companies Say that Gas and
Electricity Do Not Injur the Trees "A
Committee Appointed to Investigate
the Cause of the Decay of the Trees.

A largely attended meeting of those
| interested in the preservation of the
grand old trees which have given New
Haven it's name, the Elm City,. was held
last evening in the mayors office In the
city hall. The decay of a large num-
Der of the elms about the city has at
tracted widespread attention through
out the city and aroused general de-
sire to preserve the beautiful trees if
possible. Various causes for their de-
cay have been attributed, among them
that the electric wires and escaping
gas from the mains had a harmful eff
feet on the trees.
The meeting last night organized by
electing Mayor Driscoll chairman and
Lamp Inspector Henry Hopkins secre-
tary. There was a discussion of the
present condition of the trees in the
city.
Superintendent Pond, representing the
Winchester Avenue road, and Electri-
clan Daniels of the Fair Haven and
on the suggestion that the electric wires
played havoc with the trees. They
stated that the electric wires were in
sulated and that the electric current
could not touch the trees. Even if it
did touch the trees they did not think
from their experience, that it would
harm the trees.
f. c. Sherman, superintendent of the
Gas company and Mr.. Hoffmeister were
present to represent the Gas company.
They said that not enough gas escaped
to injure the trees, If gas did have an
injurious effect on them. AS soon as a
gas main began to leak it was repaired
at once.
Others wh9 spoke upon the matter
under discussion were ex-Mayor Sar-
gent, ex-Alderman Chillingworth, Rev.
Anson Phelps Stokes, secretary of Yale
university; Mr.. Rowe, skilled garden
er; ex-Superntendent Of Parks Ter
renee B. Kelly, ex-Alderman Hull and
Mr.. Travis of Torrington, who was
present to get information about COM
batting the elm tree beetle, which has
begun work on the elms in Torrington
Finally, after a long discussion, the
following committee was appointed to
inquire as to the best method of pro-
tecting the trees, destroying the elm
tree beetles, and to investigate as to
whether or not electricity and gas have
an injurious effect on the trees. This
committee will report at another meet
ing to be called later: Tx Mayor Sar-
gent, Rev. Anson Phelps StokessS~ Presi-
dent Henry r. Blake Of the park COM

An Attempt by n Third Ticket Man to
Strike Out Endorsement of the Silver
Leader Got Very Little Support--The
Text of the Antis' Platform The Com
ventiOn Adjourns. $.

| Indianapolis, Aug. 16.-The Liberty
congress of the American League of
anti-Imperialists to-day emphatically
| indorsed the candidacy of William j.
Bryan for president. The resolutions to
that effect was read by Charles r. Cod
man of Massa achusetts, who moved their
adoption.
Thomas M. Osborne, leader of the
third ticket movement, offered an
amendment to strike out Endorsement of
Bryan, but less than score could be
marshalled to vote against the Bryan

vention was clearly shown as being in
favor of the Endorsement of Bryan as
the most effective manner Of checking
the alleged imperialistic policy of the
administration.
A motion was carried that a new con-
vention be held in New York city Sep
tember to nominate a ticket. 1t is
