OPPOSITION TO SIX SALOONS
Long Hearing Before County Commissioners Regarding Tafiville Licenses-Some Places Not Well Kept Have Reputation of Sunday Selling and are Too Near Church and School

Commissioner Moves explained that Patrick O'Keefe was sick and unable to be present and George H. Pratt was the last witness for the defendant. For forty years a resident of Nor wich, he knew Patrick O'Keefe well, his place and location Had no doubt that Mir. O'Keefe was a suitable per son. Thought Mir. Watts and Mir. Mer- cier conducted first class places and were well adapted to the business. When Attorney Briscoe asked him how he knew how the men conduct the places, there was a lively exchange of words and Mir. Pratt said he did not visit them every day. but judged from appearances. as did everyone
 Remonstrsnts Heard.
 Frederic J. Workings, sunerintend- ent of Wequonoc schools, the first wit ness for the remonstrants said the three school buildings were contingu- ous, on the norths side of Merchants avenue, about fifty feet from the street. There are 800 pupils attending i've days a week, and he described the To- cation of the six saloons within 200 feet of the premises, five on Merchants avenue and one on Hunters avenue. He did not know the names of the keepers. Asked by Attorney Briscoe in what manner the places are con- ducted, Superintendent Working could not say, but stated men are intoxicat- ed, disorderly and it is very frequent that the children meet drunken men. There are frequent rows in the hear ing of the children during school hours and he had seen a case of indecent exposure by drunken man within two months. There is Ioitering in the street He objected to the saloons, not to the men who run them. There was no question in his mind as to the degrading effect on children, and it is against common decency Very rarely on Sunday drunken men are not seen. After fourteen years in q mo- license town, when he came to Taftville year ago last August, the number of trunks he saw astonished him.
 Two Places Sell Sundays.
 Alfred Edmundson. for thirty-six years next June resident of Taft vile. overseer in the Ponenah com pany considered the reputation of Watts and O'Keefe saloons very bad: that of Mercier good. The first two are said to sell on Sunday. and he had seen men coming out of Watts place by the side door, and one man. year ago. out of O'Keefes. He had noticed change in the character of
Norwich bulletin., 1909-12-24

the saloons in the last four years As member of the school board for 12 years. he had taken particular notice lately, had visited the hill frequently, and had seen many intoxicated people on the street. He tried to get re- monstrance last year but withdrew on advice of others.
 Intoxication Every Day.
 Rev. Arthur O'Keefe, pastor of the Sacred Heart church, stated there are four saloons within 200 feet of the church. and that he sees public in toxication every day, and more so on Sunday. Disorderly drunken men have come into the rectory grounds time and again. and men have been found ly- ing drunk on the grounds Should think saloons ought to be removed a longer distance from both church and school To Attorney Desmond's state ment that the saloon run by Peter Fournier was there before the parish acquired the land and built the church Father O'Keefe said the place is prop erly conducted. the only objection is that 1t is too near.
 George N. Beardow. clerk for the Ponemah company, and member of the school committee, said that three or four of the saloons had the reputation of living up to the law. A man had his leg broken in Mir. Watts saloon and he also has the reputation of sell ing on Sunday, as has Mir. OKeefe. There is more drunkenness on Sun day than on any other day. and intox- icated men can be seen early and late. even before breakfast Mir. .O'Keefe's saloon is six feet from the school property. and is separated by wood- en fence. Mir Beardow told of the history of the school buildings.
 Accidents from Saloons.
 John Eccles. agent of the Ponemah company, the last witness for the re- monstrants. was permitted to read a list of accidents that have occurred as a result of the saloons during the year. In March a man was assaulted near saloon and left in the street. A man over 70 was brutally assaulted during this summer, lost an eye and ten weeks work. On November 6 a mans leg was broken in a saloon. Last Sunday a man was found insensible in the back of saloon in the woods, and might have frozen to death. Mr. Eccles thought that in Mir O'Keefe's saloon the doors might as well be opened on Sunday. Watts place is the same and also Desjarlais'. Accord ing to Mir. Eccles. Asked as to the character of Taftville. Mir. Eccles re- piled that the village has gone bad The cause is the saloon. There are eight places within a radius of a mile from the center of the village. The population of Taftville village he plac- ed at $500. About 2,00O probably at tend the Catholic church.
 To Attorney Desmond's questions, MT Eccles replied that lie has been a resident of Taftville for 39 years. first as an overseer of weaving and for twenty years in charge of the whole mill. The land where the sa- looms now are, used to be part of the by the company as houselots. The saloons were at first farther up the

PREPARING FOR MARINES.
Navy Yard Barracks Being Made
 Ready for Men.

Preparations have been made at the navy yard, where new barracks for a company of marines were finished last June, for the reception of the men. It is expected that the marine corps will utilize the coaling station within a few weks. Contractors for supplies to the marines were given to under stand when large detail of marines was sent to Nicaragua that none would come there this winter.
 No official notification has been giv- en, but 1t is anticipated that marines from the Panama canal zone, who will be sent back to the states, will be To- cated down the river. The barracks are intended for occupancy by enlist ed men and officers of the Marine corps, when a school for candidates for commissions in that branch of the service will be established.

hill, but gradually worked down into their present location.
 Arguments Made.
 After a ten minutes recess. .Attor- neys Briscoe and Desmond summed up briefly. The former considered 1t de- moraiizing and against public policy that within the distance of 200 feet of a public school there should be such places. These saloons are improper places. improperly kept and he asked the commissioners to eliminate the worst two.
 Attorney Desmond considered it pa thetic to close down Mir. O'Keefe's place. after many years. when he is sick and in the shade of life, and said they had no specific evidence against MT. Watts. He understood the saloon keepers might get their licenses trans ferred if they removed to the required distance He commended the fairness shown by the remonstrants.
 The commissioners announced that they would give their decision later

Poultry Profits.

The cost of food required to produce
q pound of beef, pork or chicken does
not differ greatly, although chicken
sells for 12 to 20 cents a pound by
the carcass. while other meats sell at
from to cents. This difference Is
further increased on the farm from
the fact that poultry picks up a good
deal of material that would otherwise
go to waste. as well as numerous in
sects that should be destroyed, so that
much of their food should not really
be figured as expense at all.
But there is greater risk Of loss
in raising chickens and the cost of
labor per pound of finished product Is
more than with sheep or hogs. Then
you must credit eggs produced, which
complicates the problem until you get
a headache The net returns, accord
ing to capital invested and cost Of
maintenance, however, leaves a greater
profit from poultry than any other
farm live stock. If a farmer would
keep close account of the income from
his poultry, including the amount Of
eggs and butter consumed at home, he
would be surprised at the returns.-

Now and then we hear OF farmers
with an apple orchard who cannot see
that 1t will pay them to take good
care of it, says the Rural New York
er. In one case a farmer sold apples
enough from his orchard to buy him
ten good cows for his dairy, yet he
cannot see that it would pay him to
spray and prune the trees. There Is
some scale in this orchard, and the
fruit Is usually wormy. Taken In hand
now with oil and later with arsenic
for the Cooling worm this orchard
would give the easiest money on the
farm. We would like to shake such
men up and let them see the future.
The demand for good apples is sure to
increase, while bearing trees are not
keeping pace with the demand. Young
trees are being planted, while many
orchards are dying through lack OF
care. Do not, under any circumstances,
neglect good apple trees. Stay by
them with all the care you can muster.

LINK Ont for Sore Shoulders.

The shoulders and neck of the horse
will be tender when heavy spring work
is started. Then, too. the horses are
covered with a heavy coat Of hair,
which will cause them to perspire cas-
lily. This makes 1t very necessary to
Keep close watch on the shoulders and
neck where the collar rubs.
The collar should be a perfect fit;
one too large is more dangerous than
one a little small. The inside Of the
collar should be scraped each morning
before 1t is again put upon the horse
The harness should be oiled before
spring work is begun. so that 1t will
be soft and pliable. 1t is a good plan
to battle the shoulders with cold wa
ter every night after the harness is
removed. You will also find that It
will pay to remove the harness while
