Commissioner Potter Says He Will ln-

State Food and Dairy Commission CT Hubert E. Potter has sent warn ings to dairymen of the state who have been reported as maintaining unclean stables to the number of fl. The total number of stables which were inspect ed was 223. of which 20 per cent were unsanitary.
 This is an unusually large number of cases to be reported in a week, the average being about half as many. It is estimated by the commissioner that about 10 per cent. of the dairies in spected are found to be unsanitary. To these a warning Is given, and, if the conditions are not improved at the time of the next inspection, month later. the farmer is forbidden to sell milk from the stables. So far this year there has been only one case of a dealer who refused to obey the commissioners order to "clean up," and that officer is wondering what to do with him. It appears that he is a town officer, a deacon in the church, and an influential citizen all around. We don't like to let the people of the town know that their most loved citizen is that sort of a man." said the commissioner, and I'm going to take a trip down to see him before 1 take any steps.

 The Sunday school convention of District No. l of Windham county, in cluding the towns of Ashford, Eastford Chaplin, Hampton. Scotland and Windham, held two sessions at the Methodist church in this city We'd nesday. About sixty delegates were present, the bad going in some of the surrounding towns keeping down the attendance
 The afternoon session was called to order by the president, Rev. William r. Rowley, shortly after 2.30. A brief devotional service led by Rev s. B. Robinson followed The address of welcome to the visiting delegates was given by Rev. Willard O. Nuzum of the church in which the meetings were held. The reports of Secretary George A. Bowen and Miss Florence lincoln of the primary department were next in order.
 State Secretary Wallace I. Woodin of Hartford outlined plans for the coming year in 8 talk to the delegates and interesting addresses were deliv- cred by Rev. B. c. Bugbee of Warren vile and Edward w. Brown of Boston.
 The evening session was attended by upwards of 100 people. It was in two parts, one a description by Rev.

 There are about 10000 dairies in the state. and the commission only has the services of three men to look after them all. This means that a dairy is only inspected about once every four years. While a dealer may slick up his place when he has been or dered to do so by the inspector there is strong likelihood that he will slip back in the space of a number of years. This expense of sending an inspector about the country is about $7 or SS a day, including his hotel bills and livery hire The appropria- ton is not large enough to allow the commissioner to pay for more than three men for this kind of work.
