How a suburbanite Made $500.
E. K. PARKINSON.

A friend of mine had half an acre, with house and barn, in the suburbs, where his mother lived with him. but he was Of the kind who enjoy experi- ments and always wondering how he could increase a small income. One day he noticed pigeon fly into the barn through a broken window, and curiosity prompted him to go upstairs, where he. discovered the pigeon on Q rafter near Q nest on which sat it's mate. That proved his inspiration, and those two birds were the starting point of a business which today nets about $500 annually. and this is the simple way he went about it:
 The barn, 20 by 80 feet was divided upstairs into six pens, 10 by 1-2 feet, d three foot walk between, while down stairs was a pen, 10 by 10 feet. Each pen had a bg window, and. the long way of the barn being north and south, the birds had plenty of sunshine. The partitions between the pens were boards, while partitions on the alley were of wire. The nesting places were of boards twelve inches wide (with parallel cross cleats nailed on, nine inches a parD set upright twelve inch es apart, with edges against the parti- tion nailed top and bottom. These boards extended from floor to roof, and when in position boards twelve inches square were cut and laid on the cleats for floors for nest boxes, making little homes for the pigeons.
 Nests and Feeding.
 Each pen had two sets of boxes. one against each partition, so every pair of birds had two nests. for pigeons start laying before squadbs are out of the nest. No perches were allowed the birds resting on their own boxes, and outside each pen had d fyaway for them to exercise in. The breed of pigeon chosen was the Homer, decid- edly the best on the market for squab raising, and the feeds used were sifted cracked corn Canada peas, wheat. German nillet, Kaffir corn and hemp. On the floor of the pens a bushel of clean sand was spread and a box di- divided into three partitions was kept constantly filled with fine table salt crackoyster shells and ground char coal. At 6 o'clock in the morning a ration consisting of equal parts of | cracked corn, wheat and peas, well mixed, was fed at the rate of six pints 1 to each pen of fifty pairs of birds The l afternoon ration consisted of cracked 1 corn, Kaffir millet and peas in equal ] parts. Every pen was provided witl 1 small bathtubs, for pigeons are fond o1 l bathing.

 EGG FIGURES UP
PAS More Eggs at Storrs in Thirteenth
 Week Than in Twelfth.

Perhaps it was to be expected that something would happen in the thir- teenth week of the international egg laying contest at Storrs Fortunately. however. the thirteenth developed no Ill omens; on the other hand the signs c- the week were exceedingly encour- aging. Some of the predictions made 8 week ago have been amply Justified For instance an upward climb in the egs production was prophesied and the fact Is that the week yielded 9S7 eggs, as against 739 in the previous week, or 8 gain of PAS eggs
 During the week 60 birds that had uot been previously laying became producers instead of consumers only Within the past two weeks nearly 100 new individuals have started up the business of earning their keep
 The Wyandottes took first place for the week with a yield of g eggs. two pens giving the same production. one 2 pen of Whites owned by D. T. Ryan & Son of Bridgeport Conn. and tue ether 8 pen of 'Buffs owned by pr. N.

Judge of Probate George s. Crosby of
 Thompson to Reach Age Limit.

George S Crosby. judge Of probate of the district of Thompson. will reach his roth birthday the 17th of this month. In thereby reaching the con- stitutional limitation at which he may hold the office a vacancy will occur. Under the statute when such a situa- tion arises it becomes incumbent upon the governor to issue a writ of elee- ton directed to the officials whose duty it is to call electors meetings within the district, ordering an cleo ton to be held on a day named there in. to fill such vacancy. This writ is transmitted to the sheriff of the coun- Jy who in turn transmits it to the officials, who thereupon warn an elect ors' meeting to be held on the day appointed in said writ. Several can didates are said to be in the field and the present town clerk, Dyer $. FL Hott's name is being mentioned as Judge Crosby's successor. MT.

if Run to DanieIson Will Open Up
 Profitable Possibilities For Produc-
 CTS.
 Milk producers who ship from the DanielSon station to the Boston mar ket were very much interested We'd nesday morning when they learned that the Business Mems association had voted to take action relative to in viting the Rhode Island company to send it's milk car into DanielSon each morning. Some of them were jubilant over the prospect of getting the car in here. for if it comes, that will have an option as to where they send their milk. At present they must ship it to Boston, under existing conditions, or keep it at home. With two mar kets open to them they feel that they will be in a position to get more sat- isfactory prices. They would also then be able to take private contracts in Providence, supplying hotel, restau- rant and bakery trade, something they cannot do at the present time, for if they ship at all they must ship to the concern that operates the milk car over the steam road.
 The car of the Rhode Island com pany now runs to East Killingly every morning and it seems if no great change in arrangements would be re- quired to have it come to Danielson. Hundreds of quarts of milk are ship ped to Boston every morning, so there is certainly a field for doing a profit able business.

TOWARD RHODE ISLAND LINE Preferable Direction In Which To in-
 prove State Road, Business Men
 Think.

Opinion of members of the Business Mems association as expressed at a meeting of the organization was in favor of asking State Highway Com missioner Bennett to eXpend such mony as is available for state road work in Killingly in extending the state highway from Stears hill toward the Rhode Island line at Little Rest, in preference to extending such work northward along Main street to the borough line. A sewer is yet to be built through that section of Main street and it is felt that this should be done before the street is improved. It is also true that highway improve ment along the trunk line to Rhode Island would prove of greater immedi ate benefit to Danielson than improve ment of Main street

The Vor Eallin trio took their au- diences by storm when they showed at the Bradley theater Wednesday af- ternoon and evening in the big special once-a-week vaudeville bill. The Vor Vallins are musicians and dancers. They give commendable musical num- bers, playing brass instruments, but the big feature of their act is their ac- robatic dancing, which outclasses any thing of the kind seen here. Repeat ed curtain calls were given them at both shows of the day. Another fine act in the bill was that of the SChal- Ter Brothers, strong men. They have a knack of doing the lifting stunts in a very graceful and clever manner and their performance was received with great favor

The pupils in the eighth grade of the Danielson school head the list with percentage of 97.7.
