Following an investigation here during the past two days by Charles A. Fine. deputy superintendent of weights and measures, and Walter F. Stiles, inspector of weights and measc ures, have been here from Hartford Investigating stocks of provision deal CTS. As a result six of the city's bus mess men were in the city court We'd nesday afternoon to answer to a charge of having exposed for sale packages Of goods on which the net weight was not marked, as required by law. Each dealer was fined $5 and the costs, in each case amounting to $5, making a total of $10 for each of the defend ants to pay, which they did. All of the dealers admitted that they were familiar with the law requiring that all packaged goods sold by them should be marked. so as to show the net weight of the contents, but they had been negligent about seeing that some lines were marked. They had previously been warned to be careful in this respect.
 Other county towns will receive the attention of the weights and measures officials. The law which they are in sisting shall be observed was passed at the 1911 session of the legislature and has generally been considered a great benefit to the consumer. It is possible that the jobbers who sold the local men the goods that brought about their arrests may pay back to the retailers the amount of money they paid in court, for it has been con- sidered in the past the duty of the jobber to properly mark packages.

Steel Trust Decision.

The steel trust decision mainly rest
ed on the fact that, since It's organiza-
ton in 1901, the business done by the
Steel corporation had increased In a
smaller ratio than the business OF its
Independent competitors. This estab-
lished fact, and the equally known
fact that the corporation has never
employed toward its competitors the
oppressive methods Of the Standard
Oil and the American Tobacco, have
stood 1t in good stead in this first
judicial test, and may quite possibly
win it's case before the highest court.
But it should be carefully observed
that even this present decision In
very far from indicating all the pre-
vious practices, even Of the Steel
corporation.-New York Evening Post

1.-THE seaman's BILL which became

means more to che sailors Of America
than most landlubbers can under
stand" observed H. A. Grub Of Bos-
ton In an interview at Washington.
"It will mean that In the future Amer
lean boys will be glad to go to sea
and that we may hope for an Ameri-
can merchant marine and greater
navy. Under the existing law-the
seaman's bill does not go into effect
until November 4-sailors cannot
leave their ship without being caught
like runaway slaves and returned
to 1t.
THE new law makes the sailor a
free man. There Ia now no law say
ing how long a sailor shall work. and
he may be called to work at any hour
Under the new bill he will work four
hours on and four hours OF when at
sea, with total working day of IL
hours, and when his vessel Is In port
he will have a working day OF only
nine hours"

ton of his valued services and its

FROZEN FISH SAFE

of safety which should be sufficient
for all purposes.
1T is essential, however, that the
fish be frozen in their freshest state
and jacketed with coating of thin
ice which excludes the air. In prac-
tice, the fish are now dressed by re-
movai OF the entrails as soon as they
are caught, thoroughly washed, and
laid in shallow pans.
These pans are placed on the ice
covered pipes of the freezer, which
usually is at temperature a little
lower than zero. After from twelve
to twenty-four hours the fish are
frozen solid. They then form a large
cake held together by the freezing of
the thin layer of water between the
fish.
This cake is removed from the pan
and dipped into water, which Is at
once frozen on the fish, forming a
crystal glaze of ice like a transparent
varnish. This glaze Theoretically seals
them. No air can reach them from
the outside and no moisture can evap-
crate from the inside.
"The glazed fish are then kept at
! temperature of from seven degrees
to fifteen degrees F. until needed for
consumption.
Frozen fish is thus the only fish
produce the composition of which is
not altered in some way by the process
Of preservation. Canning, smoking,
sailing or picking all alter the flavor
of the treated article. With frozen
fish, however, the envelope of ice has
only to be melted in order to give us
back an article of food that is prac-
tically identical with that taken from
the sea- If it were not for such a
method Of preservation fish could not
be depended upon as constant source
of food
Another objection raised by the
many housewives is the fish odor
which makes them undesirable COM
pany for milk, butter and other ar
ticles commonly found in the family
refrigerator. Fish can be kept in a
refrigerator without affecting other
foods If 1t is first put in tin vessel
with tightly fitting lid. AS a matter
of fact, however, fish should be eaten
as soon as possible after they have
been received from the retailer. They
should not be allowed to soak In
water. as a certain amount of their
food material Is thus dissolved IN,
stead. they should be thawed slowly
In an Ice box and cooked as soon a.
this process IL completed"

Betting Is Forbidden.
Betting Is another forbidden de-
light to midshipmen. In the fall of
1913 half the students or about 400
mon were involved In pool OF $4,000
which was raised to be wagered
against an equal amount collected at
West Point on the result of an Army
Navy football game. The authorities
have stamped out the drinking OF In
toxicating liquors with an iron hand.
Another practice more than frowned
upon Ia the running of extravagant
bills, especially for flowers and for
entertainment of guests.
This Is not the first time that acad-
envy examinations have caused rue
tons. The entrance requirements
ments have been a fruitful source of
trouble. The charge has been made
on the floor of the house of repre-
sentatives that the tests have been
made In such a way that candidates
were forced to go to the preparatory
schools which specialize in getting
boys into the academy.
On several occasions. too, 1t has
been reported that candidates have
had substitutes take the examination
for them. Brilliant and INSCRIPTIONS
youths have been found to palm them
selves off as the candidates in the ex-
animation room with the result that
young men deficient in preparation en-
tered Uncle Sans free school.
The cadets have lot of things to
learn nowadays which were unknown
80 years ago Much attention is paid
to electricity. The modern battleship
is a great machine shop. The success

chanical engineer, as wireless. automo-

thousand and one other things must

Different c0W-FEED RULES
No Two Cows With Big Records Ever
Received Same Rations-Proper
Balance ls Most Desired.
CIV WALTER B. LEUTz.)


To a great extent each COW is a law
unto herself so far as the most de-
sirable grain for her to receive Is con-
cerned, and it is as difficult to give
instructions for feeding COW for high
production as it is to give exact in
structions for driving two-minute
race horse.
So far as we know no two cows that
have made large records and have
been developed by different men ever
received the same ration. and we
doubt if any two developed by the
same man haye ever received exactly
the same feed. The success Of q feed
er depends upon his ability to main
tain a proper balance between the
feeds that are rich in carbohydrates
and those that are rich in protein.
Other conditions also have to have
very careful attention, so it is abso-
lutely impossible to lay down any fixed
rules for feeding.
The secret of success is to a large
extent the ability to see trouble be-
fore you are into it, and thus be able
to avoid bad results. Good horse
sense and love for the work count for
more than anything else.

METHOD FOR COOLING CREAM
Task Should Be Performed at Once
After Superintendent Plan 20
Place Can i'm Cold Water.
rRv PROF. G. LARSEN.)

Cool the cream at once after separa-
ton. This can be done by placing the
cream can in a tank of fresh, cold
water. A good plan is to have the
water used for stock run through this
milk cooler before it reaches the gem
eral stock water tank. This method
cools the cream during all seasons,
and in addition it prevents freezing
during the winter. Do not put the
can cover on tightly. A loose cover
allows the animal odor to pass of,
and at the same time prevents the
dust from getting into the cream.
Never allow freshly skinned warm
cream to be mixed with the previous
" SKINNED cold cream until the for
mer has been well cooled. The warm
cream causes the germs to develop,
and they sour and spoil the cream.
