Norwich bulletin., 1915-03-06

(Written Specially for The Bulletin.)
 I don't suppose the ordinary farmer has a very deep or consuming interest in city parks.
 Not many of us, when we go to New York city, make our first break for Central Park. We can see plenty of trees and bushes, and grass and weeds at home thank you Also crooked reads and chipmunks.
 Whatever parks may mean to city people, to us country folk they have slight interest and little appeal. They are out of our line:-foreign to our interests:-quite removed from our own private bug-preserves.
 Just why a crowd of goggle-eyed gazers should gather at an instant s notice by some park tree to see a red squirrel stealing nuts is not quite clear to a farmer. He has seen Mir. Squirrel many times,-too many: has seen him not only stealing nuts to which he was perfectly welcome but also tearing birds nests to pieces eating the eggs or wolfing down the just-hatched oirdlings, to which he was most em- phatically not welcome. He can't help thinking that the crowds admiration of the furry bird-butcher's movements is due to their sorry ignorance of the little pirates zeal character.
 Same with the lawns. The farmer admits that the smooth -shaven sward, kept velvety and green by it's weekly trimmings, is rather pretty. But he can't help thinking all the while how that acre, if the grass were allowed to grow and make hay, would feed a couple of hungry horses for a year and, to his rural eye.-look just as hand some as the close cropped sward.
 As a rule, therefore, the farmer s altitude towards city parks is one of rather complete detachment. If the F,IIr sar,, v1-I,1y oil ioTot their affair not his Let them play their own game their own way.
 But 1, for one farmer, confess to a certain mild degree of interest in the proposal which is agitating the park board of Kansas City, just now.
 The Kansas City school board have an agricultural commissioner named , deVinge. In g. state like Kansas where agriculture is held in high honor and where the big farmers are looked up- on as a sort of landed aristocracy, it is natural that even the cities should treat their calling with respect. This MT. deVinge has recently been looking over the farms and dairies and gardens from which Kansas City draws it's supplies and he has found a good deal Of bad work being done. Much of it is due simply to thoughtlessness or ig- norance.
 He has therefore asked the park com missioners for permission to establish and maintain, as a part of the city's educational programme, a demonstra- ton dairy garden farm in the city's biggest park. He wants them to give him the use of enough land so he can have a vegetable garden, a small or chard, a grain and grass acre, and a barn for about eight cows
 While he proposes this as a part of the school work for students who are locking forward to farming as a voca-

GAIN AGAINST
GERMANS IN FRANCE

PARIS. March 25.-The capture OF
Notre Dame de Lorette is the most
important gain chronicled by the war
office during the past 10 days fight
ing In France In a resume OF opera
tions issued this afternoon.
The Germans had installed four
lines OF trenches in the Lorette hills
supported by strong batteries of ar.
tillery and a number OF heavy how
itzers mounted Tar in the rear. Sup
ported by a number OF British units,
the French delivered a charge which
swept away the German opposition
and resulted in the capture OF the
positions.
The French found the trenches
badly wrecked as the result OF the
heavy fire TO which they had been
subjected for weeks. To add TO the
devastation, French sappers the last
few days exploded mines under the
Germans. Hundreds OF German dead
were found. One hundred and ter
were taken prisoners and two machine
guns we're captured.

Food Parcels Are Liable.

WASHINGTON. March 2s.-Post-
aster-general Burleson ruled that
parcel post shipments Of foodstuffs
and merchandise to belllgerent coun-
tries in the European war will be ac'
cepted at the "senders risk" and that
so far as action OF the belligerents
is concerned. they will be subject to
the same rules as II shipped by frei-
ght or express, The ruling says fur
ther:
"In the acceptance by postmasters
OF such foodstuffs or merchandise to
be forwarded by parcel post, care
should be taken by them to have the
same put up in parcels separate from
other articles. so that any action TAX
en- by the belligerents in regard to
them need not delay or otherwise em-
barrass the regular mail traffic."
A movement was recently inaugur-
ated TO send shipments of flour and
other foodstuffs to Germany and Aus
tria by parcel post
