TOWN MEETING VOTES LAYOUT
 OF NEW ROAD

Stratford. July 3.
 The special town meeting called at o'clock Saturday afternoon, made up in interest what was lacking in att tendance, for although only about six ty voters were present they were ac- tive voicing their opinions of each other Judge Charles H. Peck was chosen chairman, but he resigned the seat in favor of Frank E. Conine, and the latter had his hands full in curb ing the turbulent elements. w. H.. Wilder and Judge Carl Foster of Bridgeport, appeared for the petition CTS, and Ivan Warehouse for the op- ponents of the plan which is to build a highway from the Skidmore Hill road iii the Putney district to the troll ley tracks. It was evident from the start that residents of the vicinity were arrayed against the owners of the ground over which the proposed highway is laid out. These are Mrs. Eliza Hill, who was represented in the meeting by her husband, George Hill, and their son Herbert. David Booth also opposed the measure. At torney Warehouse, George Hill, Her bert Hill and David Booth all spoke against the proposed layout. Attor- ney Wilder, Judge Carl Foster and others spoke in favor of it. Rudolph Helg also favored the measure, ana he made his remarks so personal that George Hill left the meeting. Rev. c. $. Bullock sought to calm the trou- bled water and moved to shut off de- bate. The proposed layout was adopted unanimously, no one being heard to vote against it.
 The will of the late William H. Ben jamin has been filed at the office of the judge of probate, Charles H. Peck. It is a brief document. The sum of $500 is devised to the daughter of the testator, Mrs. Fannie Russell, wife of Frank Russell, of Bridgeport. The sum of $100 is devised to his grand son, H. Allan Sturges, of Milford. The rest and residue is devised to the wife of the testator. All of the bequests are absolute. The estate is small and consists entirely of real estate at his late residence in the south end.

uniformity of species, form, and age in the trees and considerably reduces the cost. It also brought out innate civic pride of the club members, and instead. of stopping short with the trees, they invariably went right on seeking other improvements and in spring the residents of their neigh boring streets to do the same.
 The schools are much in need of trees around them and the children can be made to plant them. The conditions in Brooklyn show this, where, out of the 166 public schools, 96 or 5S per cent. have no trees at all, 60 or 36 per cent. have a few trees, and only 10 or per cent. are com pletely surrounded by trees. In other cities, the conditions are not much better
 The opportunities for effective work in city forestry are thus numerous and varied, but how are they met by those at present in charge of the field?
 The majority of our towns and cit ies are not yet awake to their tree problems. It is quite true that their civic pride has been aroused in many instances to definite action, but their leaders have selected other banners of reform and overlooked the trees. This is not because their trees do not need attention. The trees of almost every clty Tn the country are Su11er- ing from neglect. Trees are too tol- erant of abuse to go all at once, but their decay and ruin are matters of certain progress if once neglected. When the ill effects become evident people blame the caterpillars or the fungi.' l5 But thea caterpiiars are only one factor in the problem and civic uplifters who ought to know better are the other. Here then is a field for champions in the cause of tree preservation. It is pioneer work and ed foresters in response to a public demand enter the work, our cities will become awave with trees and the minds of citizens alive with interest and sympathy for the forest problems of our country

STATE POLICE BUSY
Two Raids Made in StratfOrd Yesterday For Violating
 Sunday Liquor Law
Special to the Farmer.)

Stratford, July 3-The State police were busy in Stratford yesterday, and two raids were made. Five officers participated, Robert ". Bridgeman, Frank Virelli, Rowe Wheeler, w. E.. Jackson and Antonio Fellows. The first stop was made at a shanty be-
 low Avon Park, where James Janino and Dick Wien were arrested for sell ing liquor without a license. They were released on putting up a cash bond of s100 each. The party then proceeded to John Bonds casino on the lower dock. Policeman Bridge man walked into the open door of the bar room and bought drink of whis- key at the bar. He then placed the bartender and seven frequenters un- der arrest. The eight men were brought to the town hall where Judge Charles H. Peck was ready to hear the cases. Liquor Prosecutor Ivan Warehouse, who issued the warrants, prosecuted. Frank Smith, the bar tender, was released on a bond of $200. The freQuenters all gave fictitious names. They found bonds of $40 each during the day. Capt Bonds place was wide open yesterday and it was easy for the officers to get the neces- sary evidence, although they have been here on previous Sundays getting evidence. There are 17 counts against Capt. Bonds place, and two against the speak easy operated by Janino.

 Glenwood Range Goes to Italy.
 A fine Cabinet Glenwood range was shipped to Italy last week from Noth- nagle's big housefurnishing store. No doubt this beautiful range will at- tract no end of attention when it gets to Italy, as there is nothing of this kind in general use there, and others may follow this one when the people over there see the simplicity and su- periority of this wonderful range. There are many people in this country who are worrying along with an old anticipated range who have never seen the latest improved Glenwood coal and gas ranges. If you are one of them. just put on your hat and make bee line for Nothnagle's, where you can see the dmost beautiful array of Glen wood ranges There are lots of other equally good things here in the way of furniture, rugs. carpets, mating, linoleum, draperies, etc, which you will be pleased to see. Remember it costs you nothing to look and it may do you a heap of good.
