There are not many men, if any, in this town who can boast of having caught tuna, but Selectman Frank lin has good reason to throw out his chest a little and look superior over the fact that he comes back here with a record of having been in at the land- ing of eight of the fish off Block Is- land, last Friday afternoon, the catch being accomplished by Selectman Franklin and Albert Jones of Oakland beach, Mrs. Franklin and Mrs. Jones were the other members of the party on the boat at the time and were en- thusiastic witnesses of the sport.
 Out after bluefish, the party was lucky in getting in touch with a school of baby tunas-little ones, weighing an average of 40 pounds a piece for the eight caught. Some sport Messers Franklin and Jones had a lively time with these husky babies and as a sou Nenir of his experiences with them MT Franklin has a gash in the palm of one of his hands, inflicted when one of the fish struck his bait and sWished the line through his hand at lightning speed and cut it into the flesh, not to mention the fact that MT.

ARMY WORMS BUSY.
Have Already Damaged Crops On
 Brooklyn and Canterbury Farms.


 The dreaded invasion of Windham county by the army worms is at hand. Millions of the crawlers have struck in on farms in an amazing way. Charles s. Hyde. A. T. J. Clark and J. H. Wirter are among the farmers in the section mentioned that have already suffered losses from the in vasion and there may be many more formers who have not reported damage or failed to discover it up to Tuesday
 Mir. Hyde said Monday afternoon that the worms have attacked a 1O- acre field of oats on his large farm The worms can be picked up by the bushel there. Like on fields devastated in New London county oats can be picked up by the bushel over that territory of MT Hyde'S field that has been visited. MT. Hyde has been hur- rying the harvest of his oat crop to save it from the pest, but did not suc- ceed in doing so before the worms came on MT. Hyde's crop of cats promised to be a most excellent one, averaging 40 bushels to the acre. but how much he will be able to harvest from the uncut portion is now purely problematical he said Tuesday after noon
 At that time MT. Hyde was fearful that the rainy day, which handicapped him from doing his utmost to ex- terminate the pest would give the worms a great advantage in spreading in this section. He visited his corn fields, but on account of the weather conditions could not be satisfied

whether the corn had been doomed by the worms or not.
 A. T. J. Clark says he had partly completed the harvest of his oats pre- viouS to the appearance of the worms, He has 12-acre field from which some oats had been cut On this sec ton he found the stubble fairly alive with the worms and they were in Yading the uncut portion of the field. MT Clark had not up to Tuesday found the worms in his corn fields. There were hosts of the worms about the place, he said, and the task of pre- venting them from doing damage seemed almost too great to be success fully accomplished. MT. Clark report ed that his tneighbor,% J. H. eWitter, found worms in his clover field, which was in some places seething mass of them. It was also said that MT. Wit ter had not found them in his oat field, next to the clover patch.
 As far as could be ascertained from telephone inquiries over a wide sec tion of the southern part of the coun- ty Tuesday afternoon, the worms are travelling into Windham county in a northwesterly direction. Inquiries in various parts of Killingly, south and east of Danielson, failed to locate any farmer who has found the worms in his crops, although farms may have them that were not reached.
 Quick Harvesting May Help.
 Threatened by the army worms, the one best bet for the farmers in Wind ham county is to rush the harvest of their oat crops at least and take measures to protect their corn. Har- vesting oats is being rushed by many farmers, rushed to the limit to save the crop. and there was much ehafIing caused by the delay on account of the storm on Tuesday.
 A factor in the situation that may save Killingly from invasioh-but there is nothing sure about this-is the fact that in Windham county, as far as was known Tuesday, the worms have rot appeared on the east side of the Quinebaug river and as they are not neted as swimmers there is a pos sible chance that the stream may act as 6 barrier against them
