'STREETS BADLY IN
 NEED OF MORE OIL
Second Treatment Required to to Lay Clouds of Dust An
 moving to Housewives

Many of the streets of the city which were sprinkIed with oil about six Or seven weeks ago under the di- rection of the street department are again in a very dusty condition and eliciting many complaints from az grieved residents. That a second treatment should be applied before many days there is little doubt The long continued warm weather with but little rain has taken the life out of the oil leaving some of the streets in a worse condition than before the oil was applied.
 Patrick Casey, a. we'll known resi- dent of -PeQuonnock street, in a state ment to a Farmer reporter commenting on the dusty conditions of some of the upon which he resides, said:
 '"The streets in my neighborhood have never been in such a condition. Oil was laid for the first time about seven weeks ago, but no treatments have been made since, though the conditions of the streets demanded action several weeks ago. Last year and years previous when the streets were sprinkled with water we were better off than now. Then the streets were gone over at least two Or three times each day, and the dust was laid properly. Now conditions are vastly different. There arises with each wind, with each passing trolley car or vehicle a cloud of heavy, dark dust. The women of the neighborhood had troubles in the past yeans chasing the dust out of their houses, but this year they can't keep the heavy dust out. Where it lands it stays. This dust you can't clean out; the other you could .''

the National Order at the back of them is our present objective.
 But before telling you the story of the Clans in Connecticut and the Royal Clan, Order of Scottish Clans, you must learn just what this field day. promises to be. It. is the revival of a one time very popular annual outing, and, as near as can be learn ed is the idea of Chief Roger Bruce, Clan Mcleod, New Haven. As before said it will be held at Lighthouse Point following a, joint parade of all the Clans of the State in New Ha- ven. The parade will start from the Union stationsas near ten O clock a. rn as possible. It ewilIs last about one hour when cars will be taken for Lighthouse Point and a, long program Of athletic sports will be carried out. The intention of the committee is to have the events. run off along the lines of the Highland games so popu- lar in Scotland. G2an Campbell of Bridgeport is preparing to take a lively part sin the proceedings. and the athletes that beat some of our To- cal boys will sknow they have been going. some. The Clan will meet at the Hall Citizens building sufficiently early to allow of a. short parade through the center of the city before taking the train to New Haven. The Waterbury Pipe band of ten pieces will lead the parade and it is hoped that every available cIansman will leave no stone unturned to swell the ranks of the Campbells that day. Full particulars will be published later about the parade in Bridgeport and tickets of admission and the program of events with any other information desired may be had on application to the Secretary of the Committee, Chief Andrew Park, Care of Tonlinson, Jeweller, Stratford avenue. city.

The Ice Question Of Today
By HERNIAN HEYRoDT Refrigerating Engineer

In consequence of the advance in prices on ice, there is consider able agitation in favor of munich pal ice plants, especially through out the north Atlantic States. As our city fathers appointed a com n1ittee to look into the feasibility of such a venture, it may be in terestfng to have a few facts and figures made public, to give the people an opportunity to figure up the cost Of ice for themselves and select margin on which they would like to have the city run such an institution. We first will investigate the natural ice business.
 Throughout the greater part of the New England States the re- ports indicate that about 4 of a crop was harvested.
 The Boston Ice. Co. obtained a crop sufficient for their actual need. although the cost of hay vesting, it is stated, was excessive.
 The Hudson River ice houses figure their shortage at about 5o9o, although 100000 tons are held over from last years harvest.
 The city of Willimantic, which harvested a lot of ice last winter, sold ice to local dealers in June at the rate of $z.OO per ton. It is also stated that said city built an ice house and stored in some 1900 tons of ice. which will be sold to the poor of the city at the rate of 25 cents per cost during the ! coming summer.
 The average prices to family trade for quantities smaller than 100 pounds are at the rate of:
 70 cents per 100 in Washington, D. c.
 45 cents per 100 in Florida.
 S5 cents per 100 in Georgia,
 s5 cents per 100 in Illinois.
 80 cents per 100 in Indiana
 40 cents per 100 in Iowa.
 40 cents per 100 in Kansas.
 40 cents per 100 in Kentucky.
 20 cents per 100 in Louisiana
 s5 cents per 100 in Maryland.
 30 cents per 100 in Massachu- setts.
 25 pounds for 10 cents are sold in Boston.

 The expenses are figured on decent wages and human working conditions, which blythe way you do not find in many Connecticut ice foundries
 The addition of cold storage house of about 15o,oo cubic feet capacity would be a we'll paying proposition.
 The review of the ice question in the Sunday Herald is too naive to deserve any serious criticism. Just imagine a scribe visiting the local ice dealers, asking, if they would like to have any competi- ton, or rather skin the public un- hampered. Draw your own con clusions.
