Meriden Business Mems Association Not So Interested in New England Federation.

Opposition to pledging the support of the Business Mems association to 8 federation of business mems asso- ciations of New England developed at the meeting Monday evening, says ! the Meriden Record, when Homer A. Curtiss said that he would be unwill- ing to allow any man to represent him ] in Washington seeking to estab4$sh a permanent tariff commission. The discussion arose after F. E. 7 Sands had made report on a con- vention of business men in Boston. Mir. Sands said that nothing had been
 done except to form the New Eng | land federation He reported that each association was asked to appoint 9 man to go to Washington to ask for a permanent tariff commission. He said that there was no question as to | the good points of such a commission. He suggested that the ma tier be re-
 ferred to the president to take action when necessary.
 Homer A. Curtiss said that the per- nanent tariff commission was an open question and that it means continual tinkering with the tariff. He said , that he would be opposed to having q man represent him in asking for a permanent board and that if the Mer- iden association pledged it's support
 to the New England body it would be expected to give it's moral support. He cautioned the members to go slowly in
 the matter
 President Gardner explained that no action would be taken until the mat ter was put to the association for a vote.

The couraneous Man.

When Mir J. Armstrong Drexel frankly said, in response to the ques- tion why he tried to break the high altitude aeroplane record" Mostly be- cause I am a fool"-he modestly eX pressed what many in the public feel is true of the sheer, rash courage which leads 8 man to put life in the balance so that he can beat the record
 However peaceful the life of a na- ton may be, however distant from the apparent possibility of war and of con- f1ict, 1t still remains true that civiliza- tion and nations rest on force and maintain their place only as they have control, represent and present the courage which counts it but a little thing to risk life in winning some viewIess reward or breaking some rec ord.
 The only lands and nations which can finally hold their OWE are those which have in abundance and love fools" such as MT. Drexel in unas- suming phrase, spoke of himself as being who. when the shock of conflict comes and fate calls the roll, and the hazard of all the future rests on the thin, advancing battle line. are numerous enough in it to carry it forward by sheer. unmixed daring pawning life without hesitation, to cross the hundred yards. bestrewn with dead which has on the other side vic- tory and trium Philadelphia Press.

NEW HAVEN ROAD
Tries Successful Horticultural Experi-
 ment in Eliminating Dust.

An experiment, successfully con- ducted in Rhode Island may result ! in ending the dust nuisance on steam railroads. The New York, New Ha ven & Hartford road, finding that a stretch of it's shore line route from Boston to New York through Appo-
 naug, R. l., was exceptionally dusty during the summer months, sought a method of overcoming the nuisance
 New rock ballast wais laid between the rails but the dust from the banks of the cuts still remained to be dealt with Engineers figured and planned until a landscape gardener ventured a ! guess that some kind of growth along the sandy banks might be the desired solution of the problem. Horticulturists were consulted to find a bush that would grow in sand,
 that would not catch fire from the
 sparks from the locomotives, that would act as a blanket to hold down the dust. After 9 long study of the matter, the gardeners suggested a species of rambler rose
 The dust nuisance was so bad that the suggestion was given trial. The road planted 1900 rose bushes on the
 Apponaug cut. Each bush was placed in a separate hole filled with loam. The experiment was success ful, and by the end of the summer the bushes had grown over IS inches, making a thin but steadily growing blanket over the sides of the cuts.
 It is believed that in another year, when the runners have spread out the entire distance between plants and have taken firm root, that the dust nuisance will be solved in a manner both beautifying and practical. The plants seem to thrive in the dusty soil.
