CITY MARKET is
NOW ESTABLISHED
NO LONGER ANY DOUBT ABOUT
SUCCESS OF THE INSTITUTION
-MARkET WAS PACKED THIS
MORNING AND EVERY STALL
WAS TAKEN EARLY.

No bargain counter ever confronted
a greater crowd of eager buyers than
did the egg counter at the city mar
ket this morning. One lady brought
alb 9ut twenty-five dozen eggs, think
ing PERHAPS "she might sell them. At
8 o'clock she placed them On the coun-
ter together with six jars of butter.
At is minutes to 9 she was vending
her way homeward, having passed a
strenuous three-quarters of an hour,
but all sold out.
1t vas the same story everywhere
this morning. Crowds began to gath
er as early as 1880, according to Sam
H. Bayard, who has efficiently handled
the difficult problem of allotting stalls
as The gardeners arrive. By s o'clock
the aisles were packed so that prog
ress was difficult. BY II o'clock prac-
ticaIly everything was sold. a few gar
deners having radishes left for sale.
It was the biggest market day in the
history of the city, a far more success
full day than even was anticipated.
When the building was constructed it
was thought to be plenty large enough
for many years, but it was packed to-
day and probably will be packed from
now on as people know what the mar
ket means
Commissioner Jordan was enthusi-
ast.c over the market this morning.
He has long worked for the success or
the institution and in spite of much
a%ntagonism he has pushed it and has
seen it a success. He deserves great
credit for his efforts.
Forty chickens, all there were, re-
manned on the counter about twenty
five minutes this morning. One lady
was seen carrying a live spring chick
en- IN her handbag. Flowers were sold
this morning, and a daughter of a
prominent real estate dealer, a judge
of flowers, was enthusiastic over her
purchases: At one time over thirty
automobiles, including two electrics,
were lined up in front of the market
and the street was so damned that
progress was impossible.
Tie connection is now complete be-
tween the producer and nsum
The farmer has always been handi-
capped because he could not sell his
produce direct. He can now do that,
make more money than before; the
consumer can buy goods of better
quality for less money, and every one
is benefited.
Already a petition has gone forth
that the market be open three days a
week. If there is a big demand for it
the commissioners will open it for a
longer period. Certainly today the
market was uncomfortably crowded.

The scenery is pleas antly diversified; the climate Is fairly equable and rarely too severe in win ter to interfere with cycling; places of historic interest and buildings of architectural value abound; the inns are conveniently located and as a rule comfortable and inexpensive and the people are exceptionally polite and hospitable.

To Put On Flesh
 And Increase Weight
A Physicians Advice

Most thin people eat from four to six pounds of good solid fat-making food every day. and still do not increase in weight one ounce. while. on the other hand, many of the plump, chunky folks eat very lightly and keep gaining all the time. It's all bosh to say that this is the nature of the individual. It isn't Natures way at all.
 Thin folks stay thin because their powers Of assimilation are defective They absorb just enough of the food they eat to maintain life and a sem plance of health and strength. Stuffing won't help them, A dozen meals day won't make them gain single stay elements of their food just stay in the inteStines until they pass from the body as waste. What such people need is something that will prepare these fatty food elements so that their blood can absorb them and deposit them all about the body-Something too, that will multiply their red blood corpuS6les and increase their bIood's carrying power
 For such condition I always recon mend eating Safgol tablet with every meal. Sargol is net, some believe a patented drug, but is a scientific com bination of six of the most eff fective and powerful flesh building elements known to chemistry. It is absolutely single tablet eaten with each meal often has the effect of increasing the weight of a thin man or woman from three to five pounds a week SargoI is sold bv- Lee & Osgood Co. and other good druggists everywhere on a posi- tive guarantee of weight increase or money back

SOFT cHEES E.
The Art of Making +. C. E. LANE.

The primary difference between hard and soft cheese is the result of differ -rt methods of manipulation of curdl ed milk. In hard cheeses, as Cheddar, Swiss American. Edam, etc. milk is curdle1 rapidly and the curdled mass then cut into small pieces to allow much of the whey to separate from the curd, and the curdled mass is often heated further to separate CuTd and whey Then the Curd is placed in frames and subjected to high pressure that forces out most of the whey, leav- ing a hard mass of toIerab1y dry curd Such a curd rfpen slowly and is not ready for market for months. and even when perfectly ripe it preserves it's form an duever becomes very soft
 Soft cheeses as Camembert, Erie, Isigny Hamburger, Blackstein, Nurcha- tel and cream cheese, although each os made in special manner all are alike in one pOint-namely, the whey Is never fully drained from them. The Curiled milk is commonly ladled into forms and allowed to drain naturally Soft cheese are ont subjected to pres sure or heat and so sontain a, larger percentage of water at the start than hard cheeses They therefore afford favorable conditions for the growth Of micro organism and enZyme action which Tpen cheese rapidly and deyel- op high fiavors. and fiavors are known to be physiologically necessary to proper digestion and assimilation of food so soft Cheeses have a decided value of their own. They are more Derishabie than hard cfeeses, and to put them on the market so as to reach the consumers table at a. proper stage of npenins is a difficult problem of the industry.
 Cheese As a Food.
 Chees used to be considered B lux ury or so called appetizer but recent investigation show that it is a valu- able food and stands near the top from the economical standpoint. No kind of meat except dried beef carries such a large per centage of protein and ether food constituents as cheese. Fresh beef has little more than half the food value of cheese. and a pound of cheese is equal 10 two pounds of eggs or three pounds of fish. As to cheap ness, practically the only food product that rivals Chees in food value is drieGs beans. yet the people of the United States consume per capita 175 pounds of meat annually and only four pounds of cheese, while the people in foreign countries are, of course, much larger cheese eaters, and many of the poor people live entirely on rye bread and cheese. making a fairly good diet and a digesuble one.

HOW TO GROW ASPARAGUS,
A Profitable Source of Income-S2S6
 From Less Than an Acre.
KATE V. SAINT MAJTR

An asparagus bed is ready for use in very early spring, when every one craveS fresh vegetables. It is easy to grow after once started, and yet an asparagus bed is rarely found on a farm, though the pecuniary advan- tages to be reaped from it are sufficient to satisfy the most ambitious gardener
 Three years after our bed was start ed we sold 354 punches at an average of 40 cents a bunch. Early in the sea- son We got 90 cents. Toward the end of the season some were soud for B cents. Since then the annual returns have never dropped below S2S6. Ma nurins and cultivating cost about SIP q year. the bed occupying a quarter of an acVre of ground. Having a number of egg customers, we sell direct. get ting the full price, but even wholesale prices range from F to 15 cents.
 There are two ways of starting beds, by sowing seed or setting out plants. One-year old plants vii cost from 60 cents to S1 a hundred. Planted in several dishes for the home table the following spring and nearly a full crop the second spring. Seed sOwed at the same time will take a year longer, but after that give a larger yield than UranSplanted plants, and. as asparagus beds are productive for fifteen or twen- " years, Q one year loss in the begin- ming is an economy.
 How To Plant
 Tn selecting ground for asparagus remember 1t is a permanent crop and cannot be transplanter after it is es- abolished. It will grow on any ordi- nary well drained garden soil. but heavy subsoil, with light sand above it should be selected, as it invariably produces an earlier crop than heavy ground. The land should slope to the south and spread well rotted ma nure four inches deep over the ground, and blow and harrow if for a large bed. \ small garden bed can be dug and cul- Jivated with a hand rake. Make fur rows four feet apart. one foot wide and IS Ninches deep. If you start with seed SOW in furrows two inches apart. If -year-old plants are used soak them in water for a few hours, then spread out the roots in every direc- ton from the center of the plants and set two feet apart in fuTrows. Use the space between the rows for the first two years, as it insures the ground being well cultivated, and each space will accommodate two rows of carrots onions or lettuce, and in the fall, when the tops of the asparagus begin to die. they must be cut off and burned and the bed given a good covering of stable manure.

SENT EGG RECORDS
 TO NEW FIGURES Hens at Storrs Produced 3,173. Gain of 516.

The nineteenth week of the interna- tiOnal egg laying contest at Storrs was another record breaker. The increased yield over the preceding week amount ed to 5l6 or q total production of 3,173 eggs for the week. The managers of the competition believe that even this record may be surpassed because it is vet too early to expect any serious setback on account of broody hens.
 During the past week there was a total of fifteen pens including Barred Rocks. White Rocks, White Wyan- dottes, Rhode Island Reds, White Leg horns and Buff LeghOrns that laid 45 eggs or more per pen. These 90 birds laid TOP eggs or a yield of e per cent. Some of the expected changes are be- ginning to take place. BarTon's Leg horns moved up to ninth place during the week, leaving the Massachusetts pen of Rhode Island Reds the last of the ten leading pens. In the eighteenth week all of the leading pens were from Connecticut, but in the nine teenth week Connecticut does not get a place.
 The Wolverine pen of Buff Leghorns from Grand Rapids took first honOrs with a production of 50 eggs. A Bay State pen of Barred Rocks owned by Frank L. Futile of Ashland came sec ond with a. yield of 49 eggs and a Penn sylvania pen of Leghorns owned by ?. G. Platt of Wallingford came third with 4S eggs to their credit. As fur ther ebidence of the sharp spurt that was made in the nineteenth lap of the race it may be said that a Connecticut pen of Leghorns from Mt. Carmel and Connecticut zen of Rhode Island Reds from Danbury each produced 47 eggs.
 The subjoined table indicates the number of birds, the breed, the mum Der of varieties. the number of eggs produced during the week and the per cent. of egg yield

HOW TO LOCATE ACID SOILS
A Simple Way To Remedy Them.
GEORGE H. DACY.

GEORGE H. DACY.
 Sour soils spell poor crops. so poor crops means less to eat and wear for the farmer. Therefore every farmer should play detective and seek out soils on his farm that are acid and reform them by the use of lime. which neu- trallzes the acidity. The chief handi- cap experienced by the farm with an acid soil is that the culture of clovers and similar legumes is prohibited by the fact that the nitrogen fixing bac- teria which inhabit the nodules on roots of the cloyerS abhor an acid or sour soil, and clay loam soils that are deficient in organic matter are eSpec- tally prone to acidity.
 The farmer desiring to locate sour soil on his farm should purchase about cents worth of blue itmus paper at a local drug store. As soon as possi- ble after a rain storm, when the sur lace soil Is still moist, he should go out into the field and with his jack knife cut a slit in the earth into which he should insert the litmus paper. He should then pack the soil firmly about the Indicator paper and allow it to re- main in place for about five rninutes- then he should remove the earth and examine the paper. which if it has turned red or pink, indicates the soil is acid. The farmer must be careful in handling the test paper as perspira- ton IS dClu ana effects the HtlnuS pa Der.
 There is also the ammonia test, made by putting a few drops of com mon ammonia water in a glass hold ing teacupful of pure water Into this stir a teaspoonfuI of the soil to be tested. If the soil needs lime the wa ter after the soil has settled for a few hours will have a darkish, red brown or black appearance.
 Raw Ground Limestone the Best.
 If the cOuntryman finds his soil is sour he can correct it by using finely ground unburnt limestone. mari o- refuse from the sugar beet factories. Freshly slaked or burnt lime is obiec- tlonable because it tends to burn out the supply of organic matter contain ed in the soil. The application of from one-haf to one ton of ground lime stone or mari per acre every seven or elght years controls any acid tenden- cIes of soil and puts it in a fit c0ndi- tIon for clOVers, alfalfa and other leg umes. It is a good plan to use ground limestone as an aDSOgbent in the dairy or horse stable and to apply the lime Ito the land with the manure 1t is 8 respondingly bad practice to apply freshly slaked or burnt lime to the soil with manure; in fact, it should never be used the same year manure is distributed over the field. as it's
 ndency is to burn up and waste the organic matter in the fertilizer before It can be used by the plants.

COMBIfeESG POULTRY KEEPING AND FRUIT GROWING. How They Benefit Each Other and
 Their Owenrs.
A F. HUNTER.

Poultry keeping as a sole interest is practically never met with. Some oth- CT interest is always associated with it. Of the many different lines of ag- licul ural interests fruit growing is the best to work in with poultry keeping This combination is advantageous for TWO reasnS-firSt, two crops are being grown on the ground at one time: sec ond. both fruit and poultry are directly benefited by being grown together Poul " is benefited by the shade of fruit trees and bushes and by the worms and insects which are chiefly found about trees and bushes. while fruit trees and bushes are benefited and their growth promoted by the rich Jfourishment of the droppingS of poul rry: also by the destruction of worm and insect enemies and by the stirring
 of the ground by the scratching and advantages poultry runs should be lib- erai in space and set with fruit trees, such as apple. pear. peach, etc. and balv chicks should be given range of 1he bush fruit plantings-the patches set to blackberries, Taspberries. cur rants. etc. Tn the latter case it is bet ter to set breeders or colony. GOODS for tv to fifty feet apart along he border Of small frJrit patches, the chicks being permitted to range at will.
 Setting Out Trees.
 In setting out fruit trees consider sAsir future growth, and hers again a combination can be simultaneously made. Standard apple trees should be set thirty-tiVe to forty feet apart each way. but. as apple trees do no reach hearing size under about ten years and
 will not attain full size under about twenty. ir is best to set quicker matUr- ing and earlier decayinS fruit trees be tween them Two peach or plum trees can be set and rows of pear and cherry trees can be set between the rows. The earlier decaying trees are removed in season 10 give the apple trees full room to grow.
 The cultivation of ground about fruit trees is aided by poultry. which keep rp Q constant scratching and searching for worms and insects, and iU is found that worms and insect pests are kept tn subjection where fowls or chicks are permitted 10 range. When the range is among newly set trees or bushes it is found desirable to place z mulch of small stones or bricks one or two inches apart, about the trees to protect the roots from too much ecratcrins Young trees are always benefited by being utilized as shade for poultry
