WEALTH OF FARMS
REPORT OF SECRETARY Wilson
OF AGRICULTURAL DEPT.
Farms Produced $6,415, ooo, ooo--stu.
pendous Sum the Record for Any
Country for Single Year-Agricul-
ture in United States Shows Marvel.
: Gus Wealth of Nation.

Wealth production on the farms Of
the United States in 1905 reached the
highest amount ever attained in this
or any other country-$6,41 AIS, 100000"
In the first annual report of his third
term Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
presents an array OF figures and q
statement representing the products
and profits of the farmers of this coun-
try, which he admits dreams of
wealth production could hardly equal. {"
Four crops make new high records
as to value-corn, hay, wheat and rice
although in amount of production
the corn crop is the only one that ex,
ceeds previous yields. In every crop
the general level of production was
high and that of prices still higher.
Besides the enormous yield OF
wealth, the secretary estimates that
the farms of the country have in
creased in value during the past five
years to present aggregate of $6,133,
100000.
Every sunset during the past five
years" he says, has registered an in
crease of $3,400,000 in the value of the
farms of this country"
This increased value, the secretary
suggests, is invested better than il
bank deposits and gilt edged bends Of
private corporations.
The method of handling crop re
ports, he says, has been thoroughly
renovated during the year. There also
has been decided change in the
methods of work prescribed for fielt
agents. Each agent is now confined
to definite group of states, will
which it becomes thoroughly familiar
by travel each month.
Analysing the principal crops for thu
year, the secretary says that corr
reached its highest production a
2,708,000,000 bushels, gain of $4,000
600 bushels over the next highest year
1899; hay is second in order Of value
although cotton held second place dun
ing the two preceding years.
The hay crop this year is valued a
$605, 100000.

PERPETUAL MOTION MACHINE.
Inventor Says He Has Refused Of
fer of $685., 900 Cash.

Arthur G. Rutzen, inventor of a per
petual motion machine" says $1,000
900 company in which he will hold the
controlling interest, is being formed.
Rutzen said he had refused an offer
of $365,000 cash for his invention, and
that it was worth many times that
sum to the projectors. According to
the inventor, any horsepower can be
generated, the amount depending up
on the number of springs and their
installation in the machine. With a
box eight feet square, he said, he can
produce 800 horsepower, and the pow.
er can be applied to automobiles, loco
motives or elevators at greatly re
duced cost in all cases.

coNTALDI's TROUBLES
More Suits Brought Against Well
 Known Contractor To-day.

Trouble thick and fast poured in to day upon Pasquale Contaldi from the Connor family on Hopkins street on account of his alleged relations with Carrie Connor, aged IA. Besides hav- ing to face trial in the superior court next October for criminal assault, he was arrested this morning by Sheriff Rigney in civil suit for the main. tenance of the child not yet born. This l case was made returnable before Jus tice of the Peace Senator Phelan. Contaldi was taken before his coun- sel, Attorney Bauby, and was released on bail of $500 furnished by Peter Bauby.
 The Connor girls father. William. brought this suit, and Attorney Hayes is his counsel
 A few hours later another suit was brought against Contaldi. This was a civil case for $10,OO0 damages. and an attachment for $12O0O was made. All the banks in the city were garn- isheed, likewise the city of Water bury, for which Contaldi is doing some work, and Contaldis real estate was attached. It is generally supposed that he is rich if not actually wealthy. He has been in Waterbury some time and has had many large contracts from the city.
 This suit is made returnable to th superior court the first Tuesday in September. In this suit also, the girls father is .the plaintiff, he being her guardian.
 The Connors family and Contaldi are neighbors on Hopkins street and, according to the complaint in the civil case for $10,OOO damages Carrie began work as his servant on December 25 last and continued so until quite re- cently

DAY AT THE SHORE
Waterbury Dusinsss Hen Give UJ
 Cares of Work For One Day

The annual outing of the Waterbury Business Mems association at Savin Rock yesterday was a big success. The party left at 10 o'clock in the morning and arrived home at in the evening. The exercises included surf bathing, Il shore dinner and base ball game be- tween the married and single men, in which the former were victorious by score that ran up into the hundreds. One account puts it 96 to S7 in favor of the bachelors and another makes it 2O0 to 100 in favor. of the other side. It is probable. though. that the first figures are correct. Judge Peasley acted as umpire and as his name ap- pears on the tally sheet which gives the game to the bachelors, 1t is likely that the married men got licked But even so the married men made up at the table for what they lost at the diamond, one of the walters remark ing that If they could handle base balls and bats as readily as they used knives and forks they would be more than a match for the best team in the country. The weather conditions were all that could have been desired and everybody felt much pleased with the result of the days program.
