FARMERS INSTITUTE.
Practical and Interesting Addresses at
 Wednesdays Meetings.

The farmers institute held in the town hall Wednesday proved an in teresting and successful meeting. When State Master L. H. Healy of Woodstock called the meeting to or der at Il o'clock there were about 200 present. A violin solo by Miss Mary J. Ross of Putnam, accompanied by Miss Violet Geissler of Thompson, opened the days exercises.
 State Master Healy introduced N. F. Hull, president of the National Dairy mems association and master of the Michigan state grange, who spoke in- terestingly on The Farmer of Tomor- row. He contrasted the farmers of the east and those of his own state He told of the qualities of the farmer of tomorrow and emphasized the fact that he must be a man of ability and thrift, who can cope successfully with every difficulty that presents itself
 Mrs. G. s. Ladd of Sturbridge, Mass, was the next speaker. Her topic was The Woman in the Home It was talk full of wit and humOr and was extremely interesting. She said COW could be kept on S5 a year by feeding it mea dow grass and a woman could be dressed on S5 year, but that neither would bring forth good results. The real problem of today is the family and the really great success of today is the family success, and much of the latter

HARD CIDER
Causes Trouble ard Expense to Mans
 field Man.

The Hanks Hill section of Mansfield was considerably excited Tuesday evening over the actions of a half crazed man who threatened to do all sorts of terrible things and so terror ized his family that they left the house to him, seeking refuge elsewhere. Last Saturday John Farrell came home from Montpelier, Vt, where he had been engaged as veterinary surgeon for some time. It is reported that he has been drinking freely of hard cider since his return and as g, result acted like a crazy person Tuesday. He ob- tained a loaded shotgun and said he would fix anyone who came near him.
 Constable William Place of Conant- vile was notified and secured the ser vices of Constable Lyman Maine, Jr., of this city. They went to the house upon him unexpectedly in his under clothes. After a hard struggle they subdued the man, but he would not submit to having his clothes put on. He was wrapped in a blanket, roped up, bundled into a wagon and brought to this city a little after 2.30 a. m. Wednesday and lodged in the police station for safe keeping. Wednesday noon Farrell was taken to Mansfield and arraigned before Justice of the Peace George H. Allen, charged with breach of the peace and intoxication- He was found guilty and was fined s and costs, which amounted to $25.41, which he paid.
 Farrell is a graduate of the Con necticut Agricultural college and stud jed veterinary surgery at a school in Chicago, H., and has since practiced in Vermont. He admitted Wednesday after he had cooled off somewhat that he had been imbibing too freely 6f ap- pie juice for a few days past and that he did not know what he was doing.

 ed. MT. Hull was then called upon again and delivered a brief, concise and immensely interesting talk on dairying. He stated the average product per COW for different countries and localities and subStantiated his remarks with statistics. He described the kind of COW necessary for the best purposes of the modern dairy, COW that takes her feed and gives milk and not the kind that takes the feed all right but puts it on her back. He said that he would not keep a COW himself that would not return him $1.75 for every dollars worth of feed that she ate.
 MT. Burr of Westport was then in troduced and described in a practical manner the successful farmer of to- day.
