FARMERS AND BANKRUPTCY
East Windsor Case Raises Question of sovent Filler of the Soil in Connecticut-U. s. Supreme Court May Be Asked to Decide

Preliminary hearings were held be- fore Judge Holcomb in the superior court in this city, and Charles Phelps, attorney for the bank, argued that though a tilIer of the soil may not be petitioned into bankruptcy, involun- tarily yet he cannot voluntarily choose the probate court in which to make an assignment under the Con- necticut statute which MT. Phelps ar gued had been superseded and sus- pended by the uniform bankruptcy act of the, United States.
 Judge Holcomb agreed with MT. Phelps proposition when the ques- ton was argued by Mir. Phelps and Mir. Calnen on demurrer. The final judgment in the case in the superior court was given by Judge William s. Case for the plaintiff, the bank, but in his memorandum Judge Case said that the essential question in the case had been settled by Judge Hol- comb
 Result of Decision.
 The result of the decision is that a farmer who is insolvent may file a petition in bankruptcy upon his own volition but his creditors cannot force him into bankruptcy and it seems a bit uncertain if the creditors could hale him into the probate court as an insolvent debtor, though the decision prevents him from voluntarily going there with an assignment for the ben eft of his creditors.

The United States supreme court may be asked to determine whether Connecticut tiIler of the soil may legally and rightfully have recourse to the probate court in the district in which he lives in which to make an assignment for the benefit of cred itors, or whether he is precluded from such procedure by the uniform bank ruptcy law of the United States
 This question arose in the suit of the Rockville National bank against Charles H. Latham of Hartford, trus- tee of the inSolvent estate of Ralph A. Talcott of East Windsor. was de- cided by Judge Marcus H. Holcomb in the superior court in the negative of the question and the Connecticut supreme court handed down decision Thursday that there was no error in the lower courts ruling. William F. Egan, lawyer for Talcott, and Henry J. Calnen, lawyer for the trustee, are quite likely to take the case to the United States supreme court.
 The Specific Case.
 Talcott, an East Windsor farmer, getting into financial difficulties, made an assignment in the probate court of East Windsor and Deputy Sheriff Latham was appointed trustee. Among his liabilities Talcott owed the Rock vile National bank S12,000 and the bank appealed from the action of the probate court.

A VALUABLE SUGGESTION
 IMPORTANT TO EVERYONE

It Is now conceded by physicians that the kidneys should have more at tention as they control the other organs 60 a. remarkable degree and do a tremendous amount of work in re- moving the poisOns and waste matter from the system by Altering the blood
 During the winter months especially. when we live an indoor life, the kid neys should receive some assistance when needed as we take less exercise drink less water and often eat more rich, heavy food, thereby forcing the kidneys to do more work than Nature intended. Evidence of kidney trouble such as lame back, annoying bladder troubles, smarting or burning, brick dust or sediment, sallow complexion, rheumatism, may be weak or irregu- lar heart action, warns you that your kidneys require help immediately to avoid more serious trouble.
 Many physicians claim that an herbal medicine containing no min erals or opiates has the most healing influence. An ideal herbal compound that has had most remarkable success as 3t kidney and bladder remedy is Dr. kiimers Swamp Root.

"PoppIe."

In some English dialects pebble or popple" (for it is Variously spelt and pronounced), seems to mean a large pebble GAS. sapoD The same word survives today among sea-faring men, who talk of a ''popply" sea, meaning a 'choppy sea''-one the surface of which is agitated with innumerable "lumpy'' waves. On the other hand. there is an old English word "poppIe' meaning poplar" which is in use to. day in some parts of Canada.

DoINGs IN THE AUTOMOBILE WORLD

That the automobile owner should tinker with it was asserted one day recently by Arthur Johnson who has returned from the south where he took part in road races. He is well known among the automobila dealers and gar age men. ' He contends that it is a simple mat ter for man or woman to learn to drive a. car, but it is a different matter when it comes to repairing certain parts or making certain adjustments. He says that while there may be me- chanical differences in cars the major ity of them are well built, but many a too much amateur experimental work by the owners.
 He urged that every man who in tends to drive his own automobile should try to become thoroughly fla miliar Evith it's mechanical features and construction. It is not necessary that he be a good mechanic to do this. A careful study of the instruction book and close inspection and study of the car will help to give him a rairly good knowledge of what is under the hood and supported by the chassis.
 Tt is advisible.' says MT. Johnson, for q purchaser of a car that he sit down and carefully study the instruc- Jion book even before he takes lessons in driving. By so doing he will fla m1liarize himself with the various me canlcal features and as a result will soon become a competent operator. The mechanism of a car should be mastered and tinkering should be avoided entirely until a good knowledge of the care is had. The more tighten ing of a nut here or the loosening of another there may throw the whole scheme of things out of adjustment and give an expert repair man hours of labor

Ray Harroun, famous engineer and

Ray Harroun, famous engineer and designer of racing cars, endorses his erstwhile rival. Bob Burman in say ing that all previous speed records will undoubtedly be shattered ina the big Memorial Day classic on the In- dianapoGS speedway.
 That European manufacturers will make frantic efforts to regain their lost ground in the American market by building cars that will retain the cup, is 8 certainty.
 That American makers have awak- ened to the fact that European buyers regard speed prowess as indicating the value of a car, is also true. Only few American manufacturers have taken the matter as seriously as EU- rOpean manufacturers, however. and consequently the representation will be small and the preparations less care fully made. For example, most Amer lcan makers will enter only one car whereas the European never stakes his chances on less than a team of three.
 With the Vanderbilt and Grand Prize races off the slate, the racing world once more is turning it's atten- tion to the next 50O-mile race on the Indianapolis motor speedway. This event gives promise of being the great est contest in motor history, with no less than six nations battling for supremacy.
 As last year, the foreign contingent seems likely to rule a favorite over the home aggregation. The presence of such men as Boillot, GiouX, Chassagne, Guyot, and Christians in the invading ranks is held sufficient to insure an European victory.
 Boillot, for instance. is admittedly the greatest driver of his time. a man who has won more big events than he has fingers and toes, among them tHe tyH-T E1,tx- fa1o oF This entrant alone is thought capable of vanquishing the entire American field, and then there are others
 GouX is but slight shade behind Boillot in brilliancy. the pair usually finishes one, two. What Goux is cap able of, the last 500- mile mace. which he won. hands down, conclusively dem- Onstrated.
 Chassagne comes as the undisputei speed king of Europe having covered other human being, either alive or dead. One hundred and 20 miles did he reel eff on the Brooklands track re- gently before the hour mark was reached
 Guyot is one of the coolest and craft fest drivers in the ganre. Last year at Le Mans. where a second edition Of the Grand PriX is annually run, he was but barely nosed out for first by his teammate. Bablot, with an aver ge of I6.8. the European nigh water mark. Christians, who will compete is lesser light, but a no less formidable one His chief claim to fame is his uncanny ability to whisk round cor ners. an. art at which he has no peer. He is d pilot who will bear lots of watching.
 The American field is as yet in the making, and, therefore not subject to much comment. To dat Burman and Cooper loom up as the chief defenders. Both these men are though capable of holding their own with anything the other side of the water can produce providing their cars Stand the gaff. On this the race will hinge.

When a car strikes a hill that is too steep to be surmounted in the usual way, it often can be climbed bachwat ji the reverse gear being lower than the lowest of the forward gears. This IS falrly well known among the ranks of owners and sales companies men. One of the latter recently made a most peculiar use of his superior" know.- edge.
 He had gotten q prospect up to the polnt where a sale seemed assured, after practically all the selling argu- meilts had been used. Then the man took a sudden interest in another ma chine and the next thing the salesman know he saw his prospect out in his r1vaFs demonstrater- On seeing the man again, the salesman found him liking the other care because of it's hill climbing abilities. One particular hill was mentioned.
