Poultry Shows Coming


 Poultrymen in this section are plan- ming on entering their high grade birds in various shows, and one of the earliest to issue its premium list is the MIllert Il Dec. 14-17. The list was issued last week and shows pleasing array of specials in all the popular breeds. W. l.. Loope, publisher of The Millerton I 1elr- gram, is secretary. Nearly all the other officers are Millerton business men, and all are working hard for the success of the enterprise. Breeders who expect to send birds to the big winter shows will do well to try out their stock at Miller ton, as they will not have to depend entirely upon competition to determine the merit of their stock. The judges are competent men and any bird will be scored on request and payment of the usual feo of ten cents. Premium lists can be secured of the secretary. Entries close December ?.
 The entries for the Winsted poultry show to be conducted in the town hall from Dec. to II inclusive, will close Dec. 1. It is expected that this will be the biggest exhibition of poultry. pig cons, pet stock. cage birds aud cats ever given in this section. O. J. Bailey of Bristol will coop the cxhihit and L. R.

For this purpose a model still has

wor up 25 bushels of corn a day, con-
verting that quantity of grain into IS
gallons of 95 per cent. alcohol-that
is to say, 95 per cent. pure. The plant
represents the smallest outfit that can

been made by which they may learn
about it. Agricultural experts from
the experiment stations in every one
of the states are to go to Washington,
examine the matchmaking outfit. see
how it works and listen to a course of
lectures explaining it's management.
1T will be their business when they go
home to teach the farmers how to put
up and how to operate plants of this

WASHINGTON.-The navy depart
W ment experts figure that the
United States navy will be the first in
rank in the world when the four new
battleships proposed by Secretary
Newberry have been completed.
The approximate time of the COM
pletion Of these ships is the close of
the year 1911. BY that date there
will have been completed these four:
The Delaware and Dakota and the
Florida and Utah.
The specific points made by the ex-
perts, however, is that the -four new
ships which have been suggested are
to be of 25,O00-tons displacement each
and will carry eight 14-inch guns.
Such a squadron of battleships will
be unlike and superior to anything in
naval history, both as to displacement
and to main battery.
The astounding but absolutely true
statement is made by the navy ex-
perts that the 14-inch guns will be
effective at ten miles. 1t is also stated
by these experts that Great Britain,
after the appropriation by congress
for the four proposed battleships, will
never be able to regain it's lead in
modern b%attleships over the United
States. England's greatest proposed
battleship, the Fondroyant, is, accord
ing to the details in the United States
naval bureau of intelligence, inferior
to the Florida or the Utah.

New Ships to Make Our NAVY Lead All

The report that Great Britain was
building a 1876 gun has been run down
by the naval authorities here and they
state that it is not true. 1t Is also
stated that there is no foundation
whatever for the report that Germany
is building, or projecting even, five
battleships, each of which is to carry
II 12-inch guns.
1t is admitted now that the United
States stands second on the list of
naval powers, and this is largely be-
AUS the United States naval relative
power depends on modern ships
against which twenty or more of the
British so-called battleships do not
count and are not to be taken into
count, because not one of them could
approach within five miles of any of
the United States battleships even of
the Alabama class. Above that class
in the United States are the South
Carolina, Michigan and, of course, the
American Dreadnaughts are all above
that class. In other words, the
United States has ship for ship,
quilt ana building, better and more
powerful ships than Great Britain has
built and is building for the next
three years.
The navy department confidently
expects to see the prediction Of the
experts realized in 1911 and the
United States will lead the world in
naval power. The experts declare
that when the statement is made that
Great Britain has at the present time
"a battleships against 20 of the
United States, it only means an ap
parent numerical excess and that
when the ships are compared one with
the other, there are more dead or
obsolete types and classes in the
British navy than in any other navy.
