 FINE DINNER. Brilliant Address by Mrs Sarah Wal
 rath Lyons.

The members of the Greenfield Country club again achieved 8 notable success In their institute on Wednes. day, which, despite the snow and threatening weather of the early morning, was attended by 400 people. The hospitality of the Greenfield Hill Country club is unbOunded. The splendid and toothsome dinner served would have done credit to profession al caterer. Course after course of ap- petizipg viands was served, and the large company was quickly and ably handled. It was the most elaborate luncheon ever served at similar func- tion. Nellis H. Sherwood, the popular presiding officer of the morning. The first address of the morning was by Prof Graham of the Storrs college faculty,

 His subject was Poultry" and the interest in his talk was unfiagging to the end. When you are buying birds there are two things to consider, whether you are buying for exhibition purposes or for utility. It is very easy to get sickness into your flock. He told of man in Danbury wh6 wrote to the college saying his birds had large Jumps under the wings: They looked the flock over carefully and came to the conclusion they were bad ly sfflicted with cuherculosis. On in. vestigsting they found man afflicted with consumption had tended the hens. The fowls contracted the dis ease by picking up his expectorations from the ground. If you feed musty , feed you must expect your eggs will taste musty. To stop hen eating eggs . good plan is t0 throw china egg into the waste.

the life of the world. Agriculture is involved in all of the worlds vital affairs. Agricultural science does not differ from any science. No person is entirely devoid of morality unless made so by his surroundings. Where are we to find perfectly balanced man? Determination is one of the qualities we find in the well-balanced man. There is no excellence without labor. There is no such thing as fail to the man who believes in success. How shall we know the well-balanced man when we see him? He will be manly person. He minds his own busi- ness. He may and will make mistakes, but he will be glad to rectify them. It isn't the mistakes which injure a man so much as it is the failure to correct the mistakes. If you make a mistake don't rest until you have rectitied 1t. Carnegie says: 1.-The advantages of wealth lessen, rather than increase human happiness" In this and that community we find man who is re- spected. not because of the stocks and bonds he possesses, but because of his integrity. Can there be any greater success than this? And best of all, it is within the reach of every man.
 HON s. c. BRADLEY,
 vice president of the club, presided at the afternoon session and delighted the audience by his wit and pleasing introductions.
 s. H. Stadtmueller of Elmwood spoke on "Cleanliness in Dairying." MT .Stadtmueller created laugh in opening by saying, ''There is practical ly no more filth than the public is en- titled to, for they don't pay half enough for the milk. The public are getting more than they are entitled to when they pay 2a, 3 and 4 cents a quart. In order to have sanitary milk the work of the dairy must be carried on to keep the dust at a minimum. Then we must attend to personal cleanliness. There should be hot wa ter In the stables, so the men can cleanse the hands before milking. Then the clothing used during the day must be changed for a suit for the the milking time. The cleanliness of utensils must not be forgotten. It is well nigh impossible to have clean utensils without steam. You have got to have steam at your command. A boiler is necessary. Fifty per cent of the difficulty with dirty milk is re- moved by using the proper pail. Any dairy apparatus should be constructed so that 1t can be determined quickly that 1t is clean.

and Dietetic Values" Mrs Lyons made the sensible observation in open ing her address that "unless we have health we cannot :enjoy .life." The housewife has not studied the science of foods as she ought. What consti- tute the clements that build up the tissues of the body? Tpe diet that is fitted to brain workers is not suited to outdoor workers. It is necessary for mothers to give the children good, healthy foods. The most priceless gift for child is good healthy body. Give your children plain, healthful food, and when grown up they will bless you. Why not serve your fruits in a natural way. Live close to nature and enjoy life. In the potato the housewife should know that the nutri- tion lies near the jacket. Scrub the potatoes with brush and cook with the jackets on. Don't ever attempt to eat thing to save it. There are many forms of cereal foods. Those which require mastication are to be preferred. Let the children take time at the table. As rule we are inclined to eat too much meat. The cereal foods give better blood and better complexion. I find I am stronger without meats and I find I don't have the spring colds since I gave up de- pending on meats. Tuberculosis is introduced into homes by cats and dogs.
 Prof L. A. Clinton of Storrs, favor ite speaker in this section, was heard with evident delight. Prof Clinton called attention to the fact that the United States Senate had passed bill granting each state experiment. sta tion $50, 900. If a man is going to be a farmer he needs information. The Grange is certainly force in agricul- tural work. When we go into con- munity where there is Grange or farmers club

 An education should train us to think clearly. An agricultural education should train. us to think cOnnectedly along agricultural lines. l believe the time will come when there will be a central High school in every town. where the beginnings of an agricul- tural education will be taught.
 The question box brought out some interesting discussion in which MI Stadtmueller, Allison P. Smith, l. Q. Fanton and others participated. Mr Smith referred to the fact that Mich Olas Millbank, a former Greenfield Hill boy and an old schoolmate of his, was now the eastern manager of the Borden's Condensed Milk Co.,. sue. cessful business man and a rattling good fellow.
