 Claud Kelly is making the greatest sort of a hit as Sears, the eccentric banker To all who saw the original production this role is familiar, and the possibilities for good real acting are almost unlimited. Suffice it to say that Kelly is on the job every minute of the time.
 Ray Duncan as Con, the owner Of the restaurant, handles the character in a truly refreshing manner, using the slang expressions that have be- come so closely affiliated with the role in a way as only Duncan can. He was responsible for great part of the success which crowned the production.
 Miss Aline Walker as the pretty cashier scored heavily. This little lady is fast endearing herself to the Phoenix theatergoers, and in each bill she demonstrates more forcibly her right to use the title, Juvenile Soubrette.'
 Speedy Marshall as the Baron is perfectly at home in hard part ana gets away big with it.
 Miss Rowe not only ran through her lines in way that spells sue cess. but in her song numbers she was perfectly charming and was forced to accept several encores.

QUALITY"
address by f. w. Merrill)

address by F. w. MerrilD
There is no problem in dairy and
creamery management that Is as i'm
portant and to which as little practi
cal attention has been paid as the
question of quality.
Poor quality of product is closing
creameries throughout the entire coun'
try every month.
Poor quality of product Is compel
ling the milkman to discontinue the
business of furnishing milk and the
consuming public Is made to suffer.
Poor quality of our American pro-
duct makes 1t possible for foreign
goods to enter our markets and estab'
lish the prices which shall be paid
to our American farmers.
Poor quality of dairy products is the
one big discouraging feature of the
dairy industry and serves to block the
wheels of dairy progress everywhere.
! do not care what phase Of the dairy
industry you investigate, you will dis
cover that the first steps to permanent
profit and enduring encouragement
were the steps toward quality, whether
1t be in the dairy stock, the feed fed
to the stock, the men behind the cows,
the creamery or the manufactured ar
ticle. Quality" has always been and
always will be the standard by which
success IA be measured.
In talking to you creamery men !
can consider the phase from your
viewpoint only, or as 1t concerns you
vitality, yet | want you to understand
that the quality of the stock used will
determine the quality Of the raw pro-
duct furnished you from each individ'
ual farm. Did you ever know of a man
who could not be induced to improve
the quality of his stock to take very
much interest in producing a high
quality of cream?
Is 1t not true in the majority OF
cases that the man who is really inter
ested in the dairy industry, who grows
suitable crops, who builds a silo, who
uses the pure bred sire, who weeds
out the poor cows, is the man who fur
nishes you the best cream?
The word quality" is the hub Of the
dairy industry and there is not a
single phase of the industry where the
element of quality is not an import.

ious consideration.

degrees in II miles. We were able to
keep the cream in the tank al 8
temperature of 40 degrees and deliver
it to the creamery at a temperature of
81 degrees.
I attended a meeting during the
summer in a neighboring state where
the advisability of building a large CO.
operative central plant was under con-
s%ideration. One of the provisions in
sisted upon was that the railroad
should furnish refrigerator cars in
which to haul the cream. Presumably
the farmer could haul his cream TWEEN
ty to twenty-five miles in an open
wagon with can of cream uncovered,
yet he would be in favor of compelling
the railroad to furnish him an iced car
in which to transport the cream from
the local station to the central plant.
I believe that cream cans, can be so
wrapped that a cool temperature can
be maintained in transit; otherwise
the quality Of the butter made will, in
a large measure be formed en- route,
so that there must be considerable i'm.
provement made in the matter OF
transportation before any of u plans
for better cream a fully materialize.
I think 1t is not necessary for me to
discuss the merits of the buttermaker,
nor to show up his weaknesses; yet
am sure that even with the best OF
cream we would not have q good quail.

lieve in pasteurizing and the use of a
good starter is surprisingly large; yet
there is no longer any doubt in the
minds of leading dairymen that pas
t%eurization is not only a safeguard
against uncleanliness and disease, but
that it improves the quality OF the but
ter and adds to its uniformity. 1
think there is much room for improve
ment in the workmanship of our butter
and most decidedly there is room for
a more uniform product. Buttermak-
ers should cease being a law unto
themselves, and be broader in their
views and methods and more suscep-
tible to the teachings of men who have
become the leaders in all things per-
tanning to the manufacture of cream
cry butter.
One Of the greatest drawbacks to
the securing of good quality in many
creameries is insufficient quantity of
raw material. This condition prevails
in all Of the newer sections Of the
country and it is only natural with the
man just beginning in the industry.
1t Is n Of the problems for which
there is no apparent remedy. The
farmer has only q few cows, they are
of inferior grade. and do not produce
an amount of cream which would
justify his going to the creamery often
er than twice or three times q month.
His cream is invariably poor, and
when We consider that several Of his
neighbors and other patrons Of the
creamery r in the same position. we
may readily conclude that there is
quite a quantity Of cream that would
not grade very high.
The best remedy. Of course.is more
cows and more cream. Another solu-
ton. in some sections. may be In the

in SECOND DEGREE
Mrs. Bessie Wakefield Convicted in
the Second Trial--Jury Was Out
Seven Hours.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. July 31-AIrs
Bessie j. Wakefield on trial Tor the sec
ond time for the murder of her husband,
William o. Wakefield. at Cheshire, June
%, 1913. was last night found guilty of
murder in the second degree by jury in
the superior court here after seven hours
deliberation. Conviction of second degree
murder in Connecticut carries with it the
penalty of life Imprisonment. Judge Joel
H. Reed pronounced sentence this morn
ing
Mrs Wakefield was found guilty of first
degree murder ut her first trial and was
sentenced to be hanged. but retrial was
ordered by the supreme court of errors
James Plew, the actual murderer, was re-
Gently hanged for the crime The state
alleged that Mrs. Wakefield aided and
abetted Plew in killing her husband
Mrs. Wakefield broke the silence of the
impressive scene in the courtroom last
night following the announcement of the
verdict, by weeping Historically She was
led INTO an ante-room by a deputy sheriff.
There she chung to the breast OF her aged
father, Frank Webster, and continued to
give way to her feelings. There was
scarcely dry eye in court. Later, she
was taken to the county Jail, where she
became somewhat composed. During the
nours the jury deliberated, Mrs. Wakefield
talked with newspaper men and expressed
her confident belief that she would be ac-
quilted.
The jury in the case of Mrs. Wakefield
was instructed by Judge Reed in the SUI
perior court and retired at 1113 o'clock
yesterday to consider its verdict The
trial has lasted II days The second trial
was by reason Of errors found by the s,l-
preme court in an appeal, the chief error
| being that too much evidence had been
admitted hearing upon the actual killing
of William O. Wakefield by James Plew.
Mrs Wakefield, in her second trial, de-
MED that she plotted or desired the death
of her husband, and claimed that in the
| hanging of Plew the real murderer of her
husband had paid the penalty for the
crime

HIGHWAY WORK
OF IMPORTANCE
Commissioner Walker Making Improve

Main and Canal Streets.

Road Commissioner Warren L. Walker
is doing important work on the hil at
the junction of Main, South Main and
Canal streets. After each heavy storm
the dirt is washed down as far as the
bridge and the highway is more or less
quilted as result. The road roller has
been loosening up the surface at the top
Of the hill on Canal street and fresh
gravel has been put on and rolled down
The same treatment is to be given the
lower part of the HILL Since the i'm
provements on the site Of the old Brattle-
boro House. all of the water that comes
down Reed hil has been diverted so that
it washes into Main street A ditch is
being dug on the east side Of the car
tracks to care for this surface water and
the road is to be widened at that point to
permit teams being driven east of the
track. which it is expected, will material
ly lessen tile congestion frequent at this

News Strictly Censored

A close censorship has been i'm
posed on all news from Germany,
Austria and Russia and probably
will he imposed in France, Italy
and Servia today. The British for
eign office has requested correspond
ents and newspapers to refrain from
publishing any news relating to
military activities. Official news
from the continent may be authoriz-
ed by some of the continental gov
ernments, but to how great extent it
is impossible to determine. The ex-
isting censorship on the contenent
is greatly delaying the transmission
of news dispatches.
