MODERN EUGENICS ARE SCORED BY
 BISHOP MILAN

Hartford, Conn. Dec. 22--Bishop John Joseph Milan at the two masses in St. .Joseph's Roman Catholic Ca thedra1 yesterday denounced white slavery discussion, saIacious dramas, the teaching of eusenics in the pri- mary schools, animal dancing and the whole general trend of the present day from a wholesome innocence and proper pride of ignorance of things unclean.
 The sermon was the most remarka- FbIe the bishop has delivered since he was sent to Connecticut from his for mer pastorate in Amesbury, Mass, five years ago and concluded with reference to the unholy.- end Of Salome and her mother after the decapitation of John the Baptist.
 The bishop scored those agitators Of both sees who insist that they are aiding cleanliness and right living by exposing immortality and vice to young people who heretofore knew little or nothing of it. Public senti- ment is the solution for risque plays, declared the bishop, for the law can be twisted and strained, but the opin- ion of the people will always be dom inant.
 God placed certain. secrets in His universe but science, said the bishop, is endeavoring to discover and dis seminate them far and wide to old and young, regardless of conse- QuenceS.

to a man up a tree as though Ex-senator
Obadiah Gardner might not get that
Portland coliectorship At least the very
latest word is that President Wilson
has come to realize the situation and may
be quite willing for Collector Emmons
years tenure.
IA question might be raised whether
certain Maine Democrats i'm Congress
would be tremendously aggrieved should
that transpire. Ex-senator Gardner be
il remembered, lambasted his Democratic
colleagues in the House from Maine I'M
mercifully. There are many who said
alike that the Ex-senator showed bad
tactics and that he was not altogether
adhering to the facts of the situation
The former senator's Democratic col
leagues in the House from Maine bore
patiently and did not "holler" back.
They said they Were doing for him all
good faith but that he had been doing
"mpossible'' things for one to do who
wishes to hold the esteem of friends.
I'll is minated that the former sena-
tor pushed himself in to get a federal
office without letting any of his Demo-
cratic colleagues from Maine help him in
the slightest. For a time this program
but the latest word is that the President
has become wise and that ex-senator
Gardner is not as high in presidential
favor as he once was. Be that as ii may.
the ex-senator is not quite as near to the
Portland colectorShip as he seemed to be
n month or two ago and he may stay in
private life for some time Vet. If Col
iector Emmons does hang on for two
years more. with the acquiescenee OF
President Wilson and Maine Democrats
in Congress, the situation may change
very materially"

Hay Making.

AS haying time is not far away,
few words on hay making may
be timely. Hay is one of the
leading products of Maine, and it
will probably remain so. The
feeding value of hay is greatly
affected by the condition of the
grass at the time of cutting, and
the method of making the hay. II
the plants are allowed to mature and
develop their seed, the plants Them
selves become woody and less nutri-
tious; we would ordinarily say that
the proportion of crude fibre IN the
stem and leaves would be greater i'll
