IMPROVEMENT LEAGUE WORK County Advisor Lincoln Plans to Start
 Along Severa! Lines.

Work to be done was outlined by Murray D Lincoln, county advisor for the New Lenden County Improvement League immediately upon his asSum- ing his duties here on Monday at the office in the Transportation Company building oil Shetucket street. It will be first along the line of orchard dem onstration, hay demonstration plots and for the dairymen a cow-testing aSsOcia ton.
 One of the directors of the league, Irving E. Crouch of Groton, has already offered the use of his orchard for dem onstration purposes and MT. Lincoln will invite the farmers there to show them pruning and spraying.
 / For the hay demonstration he wants to have plots in different parts of the county. probably securing a half acre from each county director for this use. It is his plan to fertiliZe one-half of each of the plots and allow the other 1 half to take care of itself in order to
 make a fOrci6le argument in favor of the method of work. IL should be run on a two or three year basis to obvi- ate any special effect on the demon stration that a dry season or wet season might have.
 He wants to establish a cow-teSting association in the county so that the farmers will all be able to tell just what cows they own are giving desire ed results. Few farmers take the lfOuDle 10 ascertain WHICH COW IS lne best in his herd. By keeping memo randa of the quantity of milk received at each milking a farmer or dairyman can readily learn just the value of each COW and also get information that will be of benefit in giving rations to the cows. Daily milk records will be urg ed and in order to assist the dairymen printed record sheets will be distribut- ed. All dairyrnan will have to do after milking each COW is to place the pail of milk upon a pair of scales, get the ei2ht and write it down on the sheet of paper kept for that purpose. It is an easy matter for the farmer to keep books if he once tries. Farming operations in every way, says Mir. Lin coin, should be recorded in order to learn just where the farmer stands and to learn whether the farm Eays or not

Says Sulphur is
 Sure to Relieve,
 Itching Eczema
GET AN OUNCE OF BOLD-SUL- PHUR CREAM AND HEAL SKIN
 ERUPTIoNS RIGHT UP.

Any breaking out or irritation on the face, arms, legs or body when ac- companied by itching, or when the skin is dry and feverish, can be read fly overcome by applying little bold sulphur cream, says a noted dermat- ologist.
 He informs us that boid-sulphur in- stantly alIays the angry itching and irritation and soothes and heals the Eczema right up leaving the skin clear and smooth. Bold-Sulphur has oc- cupied a secure position for many years in the treatment of cutaneous disorders because of it's parasite destroying property. Nothing has ever been found to take it's place in treating the irritable and infamma- tory skin affections While not al ways establishing a permanent cure 1t never fails to subdue the itching irri- tation and drive the EczeIna away and it is often years later before any eruption again appears on the skin.
 Those troubled should obtain at any pharmacy an ounce of Dold-suphur cream which is applied to the affected parts in the same manner as an ordl- nary cold cream. It isn't unpleasant and the prompt relief afforded, paFtic- ularly in itching Eczema, pro-Fes very welcome.

After few months service it was exchanged for a larger machine of the same type. since then the machine has been used Tor demonstration purposes This Identical machine is ready for imme- date service and, it is understood the asking price is $2,500, which probably means Sz,0t0 cash, or less than the pr4ce of chasses as originally recom- mended by the committee. If this ap- paratus, or some similar, should meet the test required by the committee, it might be good policy to purchase and thus dispose of one-half of the fire efficiency problem.
 The fire district made appropriation of S6,0O0 for two motor-driven fire ap- paratus With the balance, S4,0O0, a modern and fully equipped hose wagon Of standard make and manufactured oy a concern that builds only fire ap- paratus, not touring cars, could be purchased, the needs of the local de- partment fully supplied, and all within the original appropriation. A member of the committee said Tuesday that the plan herein outlined looked good to him and added that before any pur- chase was made all manufacturers of fire apparatus would be given oppor- tunity to compete for the saIe and as he put it: There will be no snap best there is for the town, the best for the money
