FAVOR ARBITRATION.
MechaniosvilIe Operatives Want Rep resentative to Treat with Agent Waterman.

From an officer of the l. W. W. local union, which includes the greater number of the strikers at the plant of the French River Textile company, it was learned Friday that the opera tives are favorable to the appointment Of some neutral party to meet with gent Waterman of the company and a committed of the operatives for the purpose of arbitrating the differences that have kept the big plant elosed for more than two weeks
 This is a bit of information that will be gladly received In Putnam, where all who have business inter ests are anxious that the difficulty be settled. It was indicated that the strikers are not opposed to having the matter considered in this manner and it is possible that the adoption o1 such 8 course would quickly result in the satisfactory settlement of the diff fculty.
 If some disinterested person or per sons could be induced to act as an ar bitration committee, it is believed the strike could be settled promptly.
 There was no change Friday in ths strike situation. At a meeting of tho strikers committees were appointed tc solicit for funds in surrounding towns Briefs.

BIG TREE SEEDLINGS.
Several Acres Being Raised in califer-
 mia to Perpetuate Trees.

The forest service is raising several acres of big tree seedlings on the Ia hoe National forest in California, at a more northerly point than any natural big tree grove, While the giant se- quoias are found in the forests of the Sierras at various points throughout @ total range of 250 miles, in the north ern two-t thirds of this range there is practically no natural reproduction. It has consequently been a question whether the species would not practi- cally disappear from this region when the present mature trees die.
 The most northern existing grove of big trees is on the Tahoe forest, but about 34 miles southeast of the site selected for planting This site is on a moist fiat not far from Nevada City and is about 2,700 feet above sea level The first seeding was done in the fall of 1910, with very successful results and last fall an additional area was seeded,
 The method used fin planting the seed was that known to foresters as the seed spot method" Spots about six feet apart each way were prepared b1 | pllverlzing the earth with garden hoe. Seeds were then dropped on these spots and lightly pressed in the sol

The body of man Killed by train on the main line of the Midland dl- vision at Modoe lodges, about two miles west of the Putnam station. dur ing the early hours of Friday, was brought to the undertaking rooms of L. Fl, Smith Friday morning and up to Friday night had not been identified.
 Which one of the many trains that psssed the point where the body was picked Up was responsible for the 6eath of the man is not known, and it Is possible that several trains passed over 1t before the hedy was sighted by 8 train crew and reported,

up to the captain of police to assign the policemen to duty, but it is of course subservient to any rules that may be promulgated by th- committee. The captain is the man duly authorized to give the orders direct to the policemen and to assign officers to the several beats covering the city patrol Still the chairman of the police committee, in addition to his duties as foreman of the city hall excavation job finds the time and takes the opportunity to usurp the pFegroatives of the po- lice captain and belittle the authority of the official in the opinion of the men of the force which he is supposed to hold to discipline. The chairman has actually taken men from the tour of patrol designated by the captain and assigned them to duty elsewhere leaving it for the captain to fill up the [ gaps. This action is prejudicial to the efficiency and discipline of the force and should not be tolerated by the mayor, who, by virtue of his office. is the chief of police. or by the other members of the committee who have fully as much authority as the chair man. Here's another police case where it would be well to start with a clean slate.

The sanitary. precautions that are being taken nowadays cause the men of today who were boys of half a century and more ago to sit up and take notice and to wonder how they happen to be among the living. For when most of them were boys in and about New London there was no reg ular water system and the water for drinking purpose was drawn from, wells which as a rule were not far from the prevalent cess pool, usually overfiowing. For be it known that be- fore the introduction of city water there could not be a system of sewers. Sanitary conditions were not of the best in the city but were even worse in the country during certain seasons. Still men used to live to be very old in those old times when the present modern conveniences of living were not known. There has been ad- vance of enlightenment and progress since then, and science has reveal ed that things that were not then con- sidered injurious to health are now considered in an extremely different light Hence fl is that here in New London in common with al other pro- gressive cities, there Is a health off cer whose duty 1t is to safeguard the public health and his power in that respect is almost unlimited. His work is being well done.

Alderman E. Frank Morgan contin- ues to be the man with the gun at the council meetings and there was repe- tition of some of tte shots fired at the last meeting that were fired at the meeting before. He took a shot at the city hall job boss again and made intimation that there was a mild form of graft taking seed there and that it would be well to nip the bud before the petals began to spread
 The chairman of the committee of the city hall job was not present so the shot missed the mark but struck the working boss. His position was sat isfactorily explained to the council by himself. Then the chairman Of the f- nance committee lifted the cudgel in defence of the absent city hall com mitteeman. Mayor Mahan was not in the council chamber when the Nor
 gan unpleasantries had the call but he came in at the tail end of the con troversy, and there was nothing more to it.

THE CARE OF CORN
Dr.. W. F.. Taylor Gives Valuable
Information on Corn
Culture.

To successfully grow corn re-
quires more skill and more good
judgement than in producing any
other important farm crop.
When the soil in the corn belt
was new, when it was rich in all
the essential plant food elements
and free from weeds and dis
eases and the demand for corn
was not great, it mattered little
how it was planted, how it cul-
tivated or what kind Of seed was
used
1t is not uncommon to see ad-
joining farms, both having the
same type of soil in equal fertil-
ity, one producing 40 bushel of
corn per acre and the other 80
bushel. Something is radically
wrong. Is it the seed, the way
the crop is cultivated, or is it
something else?
