loss of 16 lives which occurred at

The body of man, mutilated be-

across telegraph wires. Fifty yards
from the wreck lay a human skull
from which all flesh had been torn.
A headless body was one of the
first brought to the morgue. and the
skull probably belongs to it.

Thirteen persons are known to have
met death near Walingford Conn.
early today when the White Noun
tain express of the New York. New
Haven & Hartford railroad collided
with the Bar Harbor express. More
than a score Of passengers we're in
jured, some probably fatally The
bodies of all the victims have not
been recovered and it is believed
that a thorough search will bring
the death list up to fifteen. Rail-
road officials admit that 13 corpses
have been removed from the wreck
age, but as all the victims we're IN
their night clothing, Identification is
progressing slowly.
Today's wreck was the eleventh
to occur on the New Haven tracks
within two years. The interstate
commerce commission has sent in
spectors from Washington to inves-
tigate and It is believed that GRIM
inal prosecution of those responsible
for today's wreck will follow.
Engineer Miller of the White
Mountain express already has been
arrested. He asserts, however, that
he saw no lights on the Bar Harbor
train in advance. The latter was
moving slowly when the White
Mountain express, travelling at 45I
miles on hour. crashed into its rear
end

Section 2, article 2, of the constitu-

soil, its improvement and culti-
walton, lies at the very founda-
tion of successful agriculture.
We think there is more impor-
lance in emphasizing the simple,
practical things that farmers can
do to make their soil more pro-
ductive.
We know from our acquaint-
ance with the soils of the State
that in many places all is not
being done that can be done to
improve the soil. For that reason
we have been urging. aud expect
to continue to urge, our farmers
to give their soils a fair chance
to produce the crops they need
and their soils will grow with
the treatment they can give
them, and we are not going to
suggest anything that the man
with ordinary intelligence and
plenty of energy cannot do.
While we have given special
attention to the soil, we have
tried to discuss other matters
pertaining to the successful
farming that would be helpful
along all lines, and have tried to
discuss questions at seasOnable
times. We want to get the back.
ward and Indifferent farmer to
realize that his backwardness is
cheating him out of so many of
the comforts and conveniences
of life that he might just as we'll
be getting the benefit Of.
We know something about the
stumbling blocks that are in his
way, and we want to help him
remove them.
Now, brother farmer, prepar-
ing Talks to Farmers" is a self
imposed task on our part. The
compensation we get for prepar-
ing them, or the newspapers of
the state get for printing them
is the hope that they will be help
full to you. We already have
assurances from hundreds of
farmers from all over the State
telling us of the value the letters
have been to them. The crate
full letters encourage us to con.
tinue our efforts to assist the
farmers of the state by continu-
ing Talks to Farmers" along
the same practical lines as we
have tried to make them in the
past.
