RAILROAD CUT CHANGES
DISCUSSED BY CHAMBER or

Boston Convention.
The Chamber OF Commerce held a
meeting last evening in its hall for a
discussion Of the proposed widening of
the right of way Of the New York, New
Haven & Hartford Railroad G., extend
ing from the Union station to Mill river.
The attendance was rather small. The
business Of the meeting was transacted
very smoothly, however, and the meet
ing was in session but an hour.
The meeting was called to order by
President Wilson H, Lee, who informed
the members as ITO why the special
meeting had been called. He then ask
ed that the applications for member
ship be read, and advised the members
Ito appoint delegates to represent the
New Haven Chamber at the peace con-
vention in Boston, where Secretary of
State Hay will be one of the guests.
The secretar ythen read the following
resolutions, which were finally adopted
unanimously after some discussion:
Whereas, 1t has become necessary for
the New York, New Haven and Hart
ford Railroad company to have increas-i
ed facilities for. their tracks through
the city Of New Haven, and
Whereas, The plans presented by the
railroad company for these improve
ments provide that the necessary head
room Is to be acquired by the raising
of the bridges over their tracks, which
would be lasting injury to the BUSH
ness and financial interests OF the city
and will probably not afford adequate
relief to the railroad company in the
futures

III0T1 n

Edward ]. Bell sltseilaed the SEM -agl-
nual meeting Of the Connecticut Sheep
Breeders association at the capitol
Wednesday, and advocated the intro
ductfon of North Star sheep into this
state under the auspices of the associa-
ton. Minnesota is the state in which
the heep are thriving at present, Mr..
Bell showed samples of the WOOL and
said that the Yield per animal aver
aged seventeen pounds. The associa-
ton did not act on the proposition.
The president was authorized to make
arrangements for the annual meeting Of
the association, which viii probably be
held in MiddletoWn, in December. The
annual meeting OF the state board Of
agriculture will be held about the same
time, and the two meetings may be
held together, as was done last year.
President F. H. Stadtmueller Of Elm
wood presided at Wednesdays meeting,
and Secretary Burton G. Patterson OF
Torrington recorded the minutes.

Whereas, While the Chamber recog-
n1zes that the vast interests of the rail-
road company should be fostered and
encouraged, and all the interests of the
city carefully guarded and protected: i
Whereas, At the hearings before the
committee of the board of aldermen of
the city Of New Haven, and the rail-
road commissioners Of the state of Con-
necticut, various routes and methods
We're suggested that seem worthy Of
consideration. it is. therefore,
Resolved, That with spirit Of friend
liness, and an earnest desire that the
I best possible results may be obtained,
this Chamber empowers the president
to appoint a committee OF five mem
bers of the Chamber to cooperate with
similar committee of the board of
aldermen Of New Haven, for the
purpose Of comforting with the officers
of the New York. New Haven and
Hartford Railroad company with a
view OF arriving at ans amicable adj
justment of the situation, and the
adoption of plan for the proposed i'm
provements that will be satisfactory to
all interests involved.
During the evening several prominent
citizens spoke for and against the pro-
posed changes in the cut, among them
ex-Mayor Hendrick and ex-President of
the Chamber of Commerce Edward E.
Bradley. Nearly every speaker urged
that only the friendliest feeling should
exist between the railroad and the OPP
position.
A number Of the speakers believed
that the high grades at Union and other
streets caused the recession of business
in that direction, and that If these were
eliminated, in a few years increased
business would considerably increase
the grand list. .
An elevated road, it was thought,
would obliterate all trouble in this re-
gard, especially on Chapel street. There
were others, however, who disagreed in
this In the course of their speeches
nearly all Of the speakers admitted
that the railroad company had very
difficult problem before it, and was en-
deavoring to settle it in the best way
possible, as the increased traffic and
business of the road demanded new ia
cilities.
1t was voted in regard to the resolu-
lions, on the motion of Mr. Wells, to
appoint the committee of five President
Lee to be chairman ex-oflcio Of the
committee.

Stratford bridge, have been completed.
It is expected that about twenty boats
win take part in the event, and they
will gather at the Shelton and Derby
docks shortly after o'clock to take
on passengers. The rate per head will
be fifty cents, and all who wish to go
on the good time should be present at
about this time. Every boat will be
decorated with Chinese lanterns and
bunting. and the fleet will proceed as
far as Johnson,s hotel at stratford,
where supper will be served to all who
wish. Supper will be extra, however,
although dancing will be free.
From the way in which the tickets are
selling there will be more patrons than
can be accommodated on the boats. BY
tomorrow evening it is thought more
than three hundred tickets will have
been sold--Ansonia Sentinel.

THOUSANDS OF TREES
Many Farmers Are Planting, for
 Shade and Fruit

Tree planting this year is running far ahead of anything before experienced in the valley. Taking all kinds of cut tings and trees it is probable that not less than 10O,O have been: set out dur ing the last sixty days. Several thous- and of these are ill the form of large cottonwood cuttings, while a still greater number are smaller cuttings of cottonwood and willow, planted on bor- ders for the purpose of giving quick shade and to serve as fence posts. In these two ways they will be of great benefit, and in two years they will make trees twenty to thirty feet high.
 But while. the majority of trees are of these varieties, a good many red gums, pepper trees, poplars and number of umbrella trees have been planted. There have also been planted several thousand trees of all varieties of decid- uous and citrus fruits, and many thous- and grape vines have been set out
 While the shade trees planted are working arapid change in the appear ance of the valley, the fruit trees thus far planted will of course make little showing, but it is a beginning, which is certain r1o be taken as an example by other fgpers in-years to come.
 8 alley will this year produce several tons of grapes from vines one and two years i'll the ground, and with in three or four years the valley should have considerable export of early table grapes.

SUGAR FACTORY

The Press learned this week from an authoritative source that for some days negotiations have been proceeding with a view to giving Imperial a 1,20O-ton beet ] sugar factory, to cost $l, ,25O,OOO, ] and that there is bright prospect ] that the deal will be closed in ! few days. 1t is proposed that the factory be=completed by next win l ter, and it is to be a part of the i, contract that from 5000 to 1000 acres of beets shall be guaranteed l for two years.
 ,, The company proposing to put
 ] in the factory is one of the strong , est sugar beet companies in the
 ,, country, and they report that they ] are perfectly familiar with tests ] made of Imperial beets during the
 } last two years and have had their
 ) eyes on the valley for three years. ] It is proposed that this factory
 } shall be built in the town of Im-
 } perial and that a year later dup ] icate factory shall be built at some
 } other place in the valley.
 } The greatest attraction of this
 , field is the prospective length of
 ? the running season. The ordinary
 ) sugar factory has a season of from , 100 to 125 days, but it is believed } that the long growing season ill
 } this valley and the dry climate, , enabling beets to be kept in stor- } age, will make factory season of
 , from 15O to 25O days, thus greatly
 } increasing the profits of the indus : try.

TO PROrlOTE TOWNS
Imperial Land Company Beginning a
 New Campaign


 A number of changes are in progress looking to the Imperial Land Company laying hold of the towns of Imperial, Brawlev, Heber and Calexico to push them as they never have been pushed in the past. The company adheres to the position it has taken from the start that Imperial will be the com mercial center of the valley, and yet that there is room for every one of the towns of the valley to become of consid- erable size, with large trade. Some big things are being worked out for Imper- ial on this line.
 Frank $. Miller has retired from the management of the Brawley town site, all his interets in the town having been relinquished. F. c. Paulin has bought Hotel Bungalow and a half interest in the town site, the remaining half inter- est being owned by the Imperial Land Company. New capital has been put in the First Bank of Brawley, which began WOIk uuucI d OCdC0 CI1drCor MdrCn |. Ten thousand dollars of new capital was put in the bank March l, and an equal amount will be put in March 15.
 The new plats of the towns of Heber and Calexico will be putson the market on March 15, when lots in those .tow5sss can s.7selected by tiinss. H4.o have been eager to secure lots in the towns. These towns are to be the scenes of consider able activity this spring.
 Mir. Paulin reports greater interest in the towns of the valley than has ever before been manifest, and he believes large number of people will be pour ing into the valley up to June 30, cheap excursion rates from the East prevail ing up to that date.
 Hon. Willis George Emerson, a man with wide experience in town making in the Middle West, will be in the val ley soon to take general charge of the towns of the valley, and will keep things hustling in these quarters.
