PUBLIC NEEDS PROTECTION.

Attention is attracted by the going into the hands of a receiver of a largo realty concern in the metropolis having business relations scattered through many states. This means that a large number of people are going to be affected by the operation of this concern which has had perfect free deTn in dispersing it's bonds broadcast wherever a customer could be secured. IL is another instance where alIuring attractions have served to overcome caution and the need of investigation in making such investments.
 II also brings to light the need and value of the state laws which require that all such security vending must meet the sanction of a state authority which has had submitted to it the financial condition of the company backing such propositions. This forms a protection wherever it exists against the wildcat schemes for separating in vestars from their money and it also provides against the representation of bonds and stocks under false coIors.
 The demand for such legislation has resulted from just such failures and just such opportunities which exist for the unreEtrained marketing of se- curities which do not give the pur- chaser a square business deal, and too frequently turn out to be worthless, or nearly so. Such experiences are re- peated over and over again and call for such protection as can be provided by proper legislative action The worthy propositions would thus be aid ed and the unworthy would be so stamped

eRowING ApPLEs

The question of 9 pple culture is one which interests mo fe sections of the country than one. It has come to be made a specially al nGng the far west .ern states where i Washington and California close att eFltton is given to every detail of the b41siness. The one striking fact arising from it all is that the, success of the W e stern orchards is not and that the eastern cannot be attained through neglect. The same careful details are worked out as in every other T ne of successful enterprise It is the q nly method which will bring success
 There is some cap ital advice in the statement of a Cal ifornian concern ing the apple rafsla g problem in the New England stafta when he says: If Connecticut farE lers or owners of apple orchards wtgGs d apply the same methods of culture $ l have witnessed here, where one Hs 'ar's crop brought the sum of $2,5Ged 100 they would in my judgment surR rise themselves as well as their neiglhl DOTS, but they must prune the trees p roperly, spray and then cultivate th,A orchards as thor oughly as they do for any annual crop. The next thing b do is to pack or put up the apples which are given as close attention hC Ire as '24 hour eggs. The apples are 9 R7 sorted to uniform sizes and put in oxes. Apples in bar rels would be s rare a sight out here as oranges ha barrels
 Such attention to business tells the story of western sRccess with the ap pie. What has been done here and what is done the rye can be duplicated in New England with the same amount of attention and regard for the mod ern methods of gtetting results.

EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS
A Course of Action.

Very often when we have been called upon to select a course of ac- tion, and have come to a decision, it seems to us afterward that we have made a mistake. When it is too late we think that we have done the wrong thing.
 There is a tendency in many of us, wherever we are, to wish that we were somewhere whatever we are dO- ing, to wish we were doing something characteristic of our nature one of the which we are afflicted and which successfully combat it. The sense of chosen the wrong course, of having disconcePting; 1t clogs our activities and unsettles our purpose,
 But we must learn to face the tend eney as in some part a symptom of our human nature; we must learn to feel that whatever choice we had made the result would probably have been the same; we should probably have been vexed by the same uneer- tainty, we should probably have felt doubtful concerning the decision and restless and unsatisded.
 It is only when we have followed a master passion, a lifelong desire and impulse, a supreme ambition. that we feel no inceFtitude, however much our career may at times be cIouded and disappointing. To some of us such a call may come. such an opportunity

While Brooklyn may only be indi- eating it's interes in such a subject as teaching the art of housekeeping, and then as a eB aritable undertaking, there are plenty of other communi- ties which hayn long understood the need of som undertaking which would help soIv P this important ques- ton. This seeI ms to be necessary for the benefit of the homes of the i'm migrants but particularly so for the good effect it would have upon the servant question.
 That there s need for such work in Q large nur nber of homes is easily understood.

AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION
SERVICE.

One matter which is going to be fol- lowed with a great deal of interest is the plan of county advisors for the purpose of getting the farmer and the consumer in closer business contact for their mutual benefit This is the plan of the Connecticut Agricultural extension service of which c. D. Jar wis Is at the head It is aimed at increasing farm production to supply the demands of the various Communi- ties and the establishment of the re- lations of the producer and consumer so that there will be a profitable adz vantage for all concerned.
 The plan is one similar to that which has often been advocated and is in use in some states for the improve ment of agricultural conditions and the imparting of the latest and best ideas to the tilleTs of the soil through actual demonstration and direction. Wherever it Is first tried in Con nectcut it is bound to be followed with deep interest There is much valuable advice which can be given to farmers through such a method of procedure if there is the proper dis position to receive it It is a plan to educate the farmer in modern agricul- ture and the marketing of crops. in which the expense is to be borne by the federal government, the state and the county, and nothing more than a demonstration of it's effectiveness should be required to secure the earn est cooperation of the counties in such an admirable undertaking. It is well kno~n that Connecticut is not get ting all it should from the soil and whatever will aid in increasing it should be encouraged, particularly with the state college back of it. to furnish the practical as well as the Oretiea1 help.

MARY's CLAIM

All the beautiful May morning Mary had wandered over %le familiar old fields-familiar, yet flew to the re gently graduated European finished young woman who was the actual owner of these broad acres and state ly house.
 The last time she had played here an orphan of IA her grandfather had watched her proudly from his chair on the terrace. Now he was gone, and the place was hers. She felt very lonely,
 At last she turned toward the creek She wanted some quiet place to think and plan for the future. It had been an old habit of hers to carry he1 troubles to the little glen where she could sit under the old tree and think.
 Suddenly the sound of chopping came over the field. Mary lifted her head. Clear, regular strokes sounded from the direction of the creek. She paused an instant, listening intently; then hurried on, ffoWning. She knew of no change in the law that the gardeners had always respected. The glen with its curving brook and oak trees, the big fiat rock and millions of violets was sacred to her. It had always been hers since the days her nurse had stripped off the little slip pers and socks and let her dabble her pink toes in the water. Surely every one knew that!
 Yet some one was In her glen now with an ax-and using it. She flew toward an open space in the low will low bushes where the old path used to be, but stopped with a startled cry. Another step would have dropped her 10 feet into a rushing current of muddy water. With dazed eyes Mary looked around her. This brown stream with straight, steep banks, had never been there before. Further over her beloved old brook still splashed and bubbled over the stones. Near it was a man with an ax.
 You'd better keep away there," he shouted The rain washed away five feet more last night! Watch outt" he called sharply, as Mary didn't move, and several loose stones dropped into the water
 Then seeming to realize vaguely that something was wrong, and that he was in some way to blame, he dropped the axe and lifted his cap, moving toward the girl so high above him on the other side of the creek.
 What do you mean by chopping down one of my trees? You must go away at oncei"
 He moved uneasiIy, yet appeared unable to explain immediately just why it had happened. Surprise and amusem ent Sbone in his eyes. Mary s flashed in righteous anger. Such im- pudence was intolerable! Cant you talk? Who are you? You are evil dently not one of our own men or you would know better than to touch my trees. You are trespassing, and I warn you now to go away immedi- ately. Why, I do believe you were actually chopping at my playhouse tree!"
 If you please, miss, I guess you have not been here long. and do not know about all the place yet. I'm not trespassing, neither do I work for the place wonder. He nodded toward Marys estate.

ZELAYA,S CASE

The disposition which has been made of the Zelaya case removes this coun- try from an awkward position in which it had been placed through cir cumstances. When the arrest of the ex-DreSident of Nicaragua took place it was maintained that the charge of murder against him was a polfSScal one and that he was no more liable in connection with any executions than any authority in this country which does not interfere with the carrying out of the counts orders in compliance with tae law, Such was a plea upon which others had been refused extra dition and as a precedent it furnished a defense upon which the accused placed the utmost reliance in believ- ing that the demand for his return to Nicaragua would be refused That Zeiaya has agreed to leave the coun- try is happy solution of the inter naEi0nal tangle, particularly so as it was ths result of a conference in which both countries were concerned.

 The nurse came in. Call Mir. ViI- lard back, please" cried Mary, sitting up in bed. Then, as he appeared in the doorway, she said, demurely, for the benefit of the nurse. George I've changed my mind. I'll be quite well by tomorrow and. of course, you can drive me home."-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

balloting to-day to decide a bitter
contest for the governorship, with
Lieutenant Governor David l. Walsh,

getting out the vote. and political
