CANDIDATE MOHER
New Man in Inc Field Who Has
 Hosts of Friends.
The democratic candidate for tn

The democratic candidate for the office of city clerk is William H. Moher. resident of Hayden street. MT Moher Is young man with a small family and a big heart and is employed by the Scovill Manufactur- ing Go. The duties of the office of city clerk could in no way be a tax on his abilities or qualifications. While it may be said that ability or merit never yet won a political office for anyone in this city, such qualif1- cations ought to count in this case, for there is. no branch of the general civil service examination that is not well known to the democratic candi- date for the office of city clerk. While he is not by any means a stranger in the exciting game of poli- tics, he has never held any office, and never before aspired to. He is connected with various fraternal or ganizations and is we'll liked by those who know him and every one of them will help him on election day. This is probaly the best indica- ton. of young mans popularity and ambition. He ought to receive his full party vote, for there is no reason why he should not receive it. He comes from the ward where his op- ponent received a big vote in the last city campaign, and it is said now that elements that were conspicuous on MT Sandland's side then will be with MT Moher this time. However, if the democratic party stands by it's candidates, all of them will be elected with a splendid majority. MT Moher's name on his party ticket added strength to it for he comes from the ward whore Iolitical vic tories come from. the gallant fifth.

VOTE FOR HERMANN.
John Henderson Says He Will aud Advises Others 10 Do So.
waterbury, oct 2. l907..

" &eSA OAAJt WY Sb ~OS'ssa55 Editor of the Democrat,
 Dear Sir:-Will you kindly permit me to say a word in regard to some of the candidates who are seeking for office in the city government?
 Tn the republican party, with which have always been identified, it is seldom that the man whom the people want for chief magistrate of the city hall will acrept the nomination, there- fore we have to take whoever will accept and try to become enthusiastic for him. But there is never any scarceness of candidates for places on the board of aldermen, superin- tendents and forenlen in the factories being willing and eager to serve, they are nominated because of the c0n- spicuous places they fill in daily life and the influence they are supposed to be able to exert for the strength ening of the party. The result is sometimes different from what was expected. Some soul-destrOying in- fiuence seems to Turk in those posi- lions of prominence After occupy ing them for number of years 1t is painful to see how much some. men have lost of the finer sensibilit1es that they once possessed.
 The republican candidate fors al- dernan in the. Brooklyn district is a man with whom I have had mbroken friendly relations for more than forty years, but for the past ten or twelve years it has hardly been possible to identify him with his former self. Where ne had been progressive he became obstructive, and was not at all scrupulous about the methods he employed to gain his erl.s.
 -sz.When the work of getting improve nents made in our vicinity was in my hands (when I was on the board of road commissioners he set himselI against having them carried to q fln- ish and was instrumental ill getting vote surreptitiously passed at an adjourned meeting of the Third Con gregational church to the effect thar the church would not claim damages if proposed change of grade, max, 7inp the false grade on the south side legal, was adopted. When told that the vote was illegal because the mat ter had not been specified in the call for the meeting, he said that the clause '.or any other businesss' covered 1t.
 Since then. in matters pertaining to the church as well as to the streets his actions have so often beeu just like those here mentioned one could not help exclaiming in pity, "Breathes there a man with soul so dead, .-2riEa
 The Brooklyn man, William H. Her mann. whom the democratic party has placed in nomination for alderman will receive my vote. 4 a-....
 Yours truly, -.- ,, JOHN HENDERSON,, Jr.

Good Prices for Truck,

With close observation of your neigh
bors who are now engaged in the fruit
and vegetable industry, you may easily
see their checks received for fruit ship
ments are simply fabulous-like this
Net price peaches, 1886 per bushel
early apples, $3.50 per bushel; black.
berries, $1.50 net per 24-quart case; red
raspberries So per 24-pint case; green
beans, 81 per bushel. Those prices
have Klondike sound for wealth. But
they are true. Now why not you com.

Feeding Skim Milk

Our best dairymen have long ago re-
allied the true feeding value of skim
milk. At the Kansas station the re-
suits Of an experiment with thirteen
groups of ten calves each showed that
when calves are worth $50 per 100,
skim milk is worth nearly 20 cents per
100; with calves at 81 per 100 1t Is
worth 30 cents, and at $5 per 100 worth
40 cents The above experiment was
conducted in practical way, and the
results show that the average value of
skim milk for calf feeding, provided
this product is sweet, fresh skim milk,
fed right. Skim milk fed to calves
from centrifugal separator, such as
Is now within the reach Of every farm
er, fed sweet and fresh within an hour
after it Is separated, is worth at least
twice as much as ordinary skim milk
derived from deep setting, open setting
or the skim milk from creamery.

Flowing by Steam,

David McClary recently took his
new steam plow down to the Brevoort
farm, short distance south of the city,
and began plowing patch of 500 acres
Of ground for Mr.. Brevoort Mr. Nc
Clary at first wanted to plow 200 acres
of his own land in Illinois, but the man
ager of the machine refused to take the
heavy thing across the bridge, the en-
gine weighing thirteen tons. Mr. Nc
Clary, 1t Is said, will get So an acre
for plowing the Brevoort land, and it
Is said that the machine will plow
twenty-five acres in twelve hours, or
fifty acres every day and night. At
the present time Mr.. McClary has his
hands full, as 1t is said he now has
$1,S00 worth of plowing ahead Of him.

and boarded with farmer. This year
he wrote to the farmer, and in his let

The farmer replied, "Jane is went

The pepper weevll, or anthonomus
aenotlnctus, caused great injury to
nearly all varieties of peppers in the
region of San. Antonio, Texas but later
the pest practically disappeared in some
Of the worst-infected districts. This in
sect was apparently introduced from
Mexico within recent years. The in
tested pepper pods show slight pro-
liberation Of tissue, which assists In
checking the work Of the larva, but in
cases of bad infestation it is necessary
to collect and destroy fallen pepper
pods or bury them by cultivation.

Many growers do not know the prop
er time to pick fruit-that is, the stage
of maturity that puts 1t on the market
in good condition. Very often one
sees fine large pears and peaches that
are rotting when the packages are
opened because the fruit has been al.
lowed to get too ripe on the tree be.
fore picking. Sometimes when the
early market is slack there is a de-
mand for immature fruit for cooking
purposes. The first early summer ap-
pies may be profitably picked when
they get big enough for cooking. This
will be when the seeds are still white
and before the fruit shows signs of
coloring. The market is always looking
forward to the earliest apples. Des-
sert and winter apples should not be
picked until we'll colored. Those that
stay on the tree late are better favored
than those picked early. Winter apples
will usually keep better If allowed tt
ripen in the cool weather of the fall
The ease with which some fruit sepa.
rates from the twig by nip sidewise
gives good idea of maturity. Apples
should not be separated from the twie
by a straight pull, but by a twist up
ward or sidewise. Peaches are picked
for market when they show the clear
bright colors. They should not be
pinched to test maturity. The expert
enced picker has way of rolling the
fiat of his hand over the ridge of @
peach, and the feel means the same tc
him as grain in the sack does to the
miller's hand.-W. n. Hutt.

Paying the Freight.

Many farmers ship produce to mar
ket at certain seasons and buy articles
that could be dispensed with by using
those grown on the farm. In such
cases they pay transportation in two
ways, which lessons the profits.
For permanent pasture, timothy,
red top and orchard grass are gener-
ally used, as these grasses seem to hold
out as well as any. Other kinds may
be added, If preferred, but the three
mentioned should never be omitted.
The fall or early spring il an excellent
time for reseeding the pastures, but in
80 doing the farmer should use clean
seed, use 1t plentifully, and scratch it
In II possible. One of the best plans
to assist the pasture is to SOW white
clover seed on the bare places, as It
will make growth where some seeds
will fail
