 Work Started in June.
 During June of the past summer announcement was made that the Franklin block, occupying the site on which the new bank Stands, had been sold to the Windham eCounty National Bank, which was then occupying quarters in the Phoenix building on Main street. Almost immediately after the purchase contracts were placed by the bank for the construction of the building as it now stands, and the work of remodelling commenced.
 Those who for years were familiar with the Franklin block will find no

POTASH ON FARM.
No Great Cause for Worry Over the
 Expected Shortage.

The potash situation is of interest to many farmers. Many are undoubt- edly losing more potash by the meth ods of handling their stable manures than they. ever buy through the com mercial fertilizers.
 Should a farmer buy five tons or mix up a grade of fertilizer which analyses 6 to per cent potash, he would be buying 500 pounds of potash to put into his land Supposing the same farmer had 12 cows besides the usual number of horses, hogs and other young stock and he cares for them as is commonly done. What will be lost in the way of potash? Each COW will excrete during a year about 10 tons of solids and four tons of liquids con taining in every ton about 10 pounds of potash. Supposing 45 per cent. is lost in the pastures during the summer and of the remaining, 60 per cent Is saved-this means from 12 cows, 300 pounds of potash is lost. From the young stock, two or three horses and several hogs, another 200 pounds of balancing that which is usually bought in the fertilizers.
 Thus, if our stock men win care for the home course of potash found in the manure pile, to say nothing of the costly nitrogen that is being lost at the same time, there should be no great cause of worry over potash this one season if it is impossible to get it this coming year. The best remedy is to use good absorbents and the manure-pit, applying the manure from time to time to the fields instead of allowing 1t to remain in piles.

An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 30 lbs. of

 Thin. nervous, undeveloped men and women everywhere are heard to say: al can't understand why l do not get fat. l eat plenty of good, nouriShing food. The reason Is just this: You cannot get fat, no matter how much you eat. un- less your digestive organs sassimilate the fat-malSing elements of your food instead of passing them out through the body as waste.
 What is needed Is a means of gently urging the assimilative functions Of the stomach and intestines to absorb the oils and fats and hand them oyersto the blood, where they may reach the starved, shrunken, rundown tissues. and build them up. The thin persons body is like a. dry spongeEeager ann which it is being deprived by the fail ure of the alimentary canal to take them from the food. The best way to overcome this sinful waste of flesh building elements and to stop the leak- age of fats is ,to use sarg91; the sores re- that is recommended so highly by PnyS sicians here and abroad.

 !, Convenient for Patrons.
 Marble base aoards add another lobby, which is roony and provided with every convenience for patrons. To the right of the entrance is the office of the vice e-president and cashier. Nathan D. Princee, private room for consultation, telephonee booths, etc The handsome mahogany fixtures sur mounted by a modern type of metal grill work separate the lobby from the space given over to the working force of the bank, and these fixtures are continuous, extending across the full width of the bank between the north side and the line leading to the teller's position and the office of the cashier The cross section of fixtures is so placed as to enclose the vault space from the lobby. A ladies' rest room opens off the lobby. It is thoughtfully furnished and proves of convenience to many of the banks patrons.
 A line of windows on the south side of the building let in a flood of light for the space where the banks staff works, this being one of the ends aimed at when the building was designed. The directors room, very nicely fitted, is at the rear of the building.

FERTILIzE THE LAWNS.
Should be Done This Fall for Best
 Results.

Applications of fertilizer and lime should be applied this fall on lawns if best results are to be obtained the coming season. Cottonseed meal, tank age, dried blood and ground bone can be used at the rate of from four fifths per square rod with satisfactory re- suits The above materials being of organic nature more time must be al- lowed than when the chemicals are used. The latter can be used next spring safely.
 Many will undoubtedly cover their lawns with rotted stable manure, but 9 greater risk is run due to the pres- ence of many weed seeds which have not been killed during the rotting pro |. cess Many lawns are seriously injured by the introduction of many weed seeds which gradually spread throughout the lawn area Applications of ground lime or air-slaked lime should be also applied at the rate of five eigthy per square rod.

BEE BUSINESS BAD.

Connecticut bee-keepers have just completed gathering the 1914 honey crop. According to the Bureau of Crop Estimates of the United States Department of Agriculture the yield per colony of bees was 2S pounds. In 1913 the production per hive was 35 pounds.
 The decrease is said to be due to the shortage of the wild flower crop this season.
 The latest census figures of the bee and honey industry of this State re- late to 1910. That year there were 1,79S farms in Connecticut that kept bees and the total number Of colonies was 9.445.

DANGER OF GRAZING.
Stock Should Not Be Left Out Later
 Than Fall.

Acres and acres of good meadow land are going to be treated this fall in such 8 way as to shorten the life and lessen the annual yield very ma terially. This treatment grazing until late in the season
 Care should be taken, especially of these fields which have recently been seeded, to prevent stock from eating the fall growth to such an extent that no covering will be left as a surface mulch to cover the roots. Grazing closely will hasten the running out of the timothy thus causing a large loss. It will be more economical to feed the stock in the barn. Do not graze later than the fall

GRAIN FEED.
Poor Policy to CurtaiI It if Flow of
 Milk is to be Maintained.

Due to the high cost of grain feeds. many of the dairymen are lessening the amount of grain feed. Possibly this is a wise move, but curtailing the amount of grain to practically noth- ing, especially at this time of the year, is a poor policy.
 To get the flow of milk throughout the winter the COW must be fed well and in good condition before the cold season comes on. It is a difficult prop osition to regain the full amount after a falling off has taken place.
 The condition of the stock on many farms, due to the short pasture feeds is poor Thus enless extra care is giv- en during the coming months the prof its, if any, will be much smaller Ii will be better to feed well and fewer in number rather than half feed a large number,
