BUILDING AND PAVING
Will Help Distribute Money in Bridge
port This Year.

Exclusive of the new high school
project, considerably more than ST.
100000 will be expended in public
works in Bridgeport during the coming
summer and contractors are antici-
pating an exceptionally busy season
on that account. The sum to be ex-
pended is much larger than is gener-
ally believed for the reason that the
citys share of the cost of street paw
ing, sewer construction and bridge
work is much less than half of the
actual expense.
$4,000 in Pavement.
In permanent or hard surface. pave
ment, for instance, the city is planning
to spend 100000, the proceeds of an
issue of serial notes for which the
legislature has been asked to grant
the necessary authority the committee
on finance having reported favorably
and, no opposition having been offered
at the hearing, it is safe to assume that
the bill will become q law. 4.s-s.
Whi1estlle city will spend 100000.
property owners on both sides of the
streets to be paved viii pay a like sum
in assessments while the Connecticut
company will pay for the entire cost
of the paving within it's trolley tracks
and to a point two feet outside each
outer rail. This will entail a cost which
is estimated at $150,ee0 to the COM
pany, which, calculated with the share
to be borne by the city and property
owners, makes a total of $3.50, 600 to be
spent on hard surface pavements.

More and Better Pastures.

In the South we may ordinarily get two crops each year from most of our land. Yet few of us get them. In fact, few of us really appreciate the fact that our agri- cultural opportunities are greater here than elsewhere. it is mainly because our climate permits the double crop system. We can fol- low oats by COW peas, the early crop of potatoes may be followed by a late crop. peas or crimson clover may be sown in the cotton and corn. Thus, we may build up our soil while utilizing it to the ut most.
 We need to plant more forage crops. If we make the cheapest and best meat, we must have sew eral fields of COW peas, soy beans, pea nuts, sweet potatoes. patches of rape and Bermuda pasturage. We can produce cheaper and better meat here than elsewhere. but we can't do this unless we have plenty of pasture land and plenty of for age crops. We cant produce cheap meat on corn alone.
 This system of live stock farm ing will reduce our meat bills, our grocery bills and our fertilizer bills. We shall be able to put aside the proceeds of our cotton sales as so much surplus money. The fertili- ty of our soils will increase and the general prosperity of our people will increase.
 We should establish a system of permanent pastures. Put the idle acres to work growing forage crops of bermuda. Try bermuda and white clover, bermuda and red-top. or bermuda and lespedeza. When a piece of land does not give the results it should give, do not turn it out to weeds, but put it in pas ture. Keep it at work. The soil,  like human beings. fares better when it is doing some useful work.

 Commissioner of Agriculture.

Seed Corn.

Corn is an easy plant to improve by careful seed selection, and no work on the farm will pay better than few minutes devoted to SC lecting seed corn iB the field while the corn is in silk and tassel. Le each farmer follow the following instructions as nearly as possiblf with whatever variety of corn h. may prefer:
 1. When in silk remove al plants that have not started ar ear 9. Remove the tassels from al stalks that are over tall and that have only small ear.
 5. Before harvesting time go through the patch and select the best stalks. marking them so they can be readily distinguished. Tn. ideal stalk is one without suckers thick at the base, with we'll devel- oped roots as shown by it's vgor- ous growth and bearing good ear or ears about midway the height of the stalk. The heighth of the stalk should be usually about eight feet. If it is desired to produce ar early variety only those stalks that mature first should be marked.
 4. Select stalks free from smut or disease, and not in the immed fate neighborhood of other diseased stalks. The ears should have two good ears or shanks four or five inches long. with the ear hanging down, to keep the corn dry. Let the ear be we'll covered with. a close fitting shuck, as a protection against the weevil.
 Keep this corn in cool, dry place, well ventilated. and the corn will come up better and be more uniformed in growth, and if planted separate from the main crop vii give an increased yield.

Positions Open.

Competent Stenographers and
 Bookkeepers are always in de- mand. at good salaries. There is plenty room-and plenty of money at the top. Court Stenograph- CTS often make more than the Judge, and many a stenographlc secretary who has made himself valuable to his employer receives every year what most people would regard as a fortune. The Ste nographer holds a confidential po- sition with his employer In dic- tating his correspondence the experienced business man gives his stenographer knowledge of the inside workings of the business; at the same time he gives him the benefit of his own experience; SO the stenographef receives the training such as no other clerk has the opportunity of receiving. The longer he works as a stenographer the better fitted he becomes for other lines of work, because he is constantly acquiring a wider ex- perience and a practical training. Naturely. he is the one to whom the opportunities come first, be- cause he is the one who is prepared for better positions. From an ed ucational standpoint alone, two years experince as stenographer
