AGED GRANDMOTHER
So Weak She. Could Hardly Stand
 Made Strong by Vinol.


 Right here in New Britain we have seen such excellent results from Vinol that it is pleasure to know it is do- ing so much good for old people in other parts of the country.
 Woodbridge, N. J.-"My Grandma was recovering from the grippe and was so weak she could hardly stand, and as she keeps house for my father and myself, she could not get around at all. She had taken cod liver oil and many other medicines, but noth- ing seemed to do her any good. At last we heard of VinoI and tried it, and Grandma commenced to feel bet ter right away, and got strong very soon, so she gets around as well as ever. We all praise Vinol for it is a splendid medicine" Myrtle H. Bum.
 The reason Vinol is so successful is restoring strength to the aged is because of the rare combination of tonic iron, the curative medicinal extractives of fresh cods' flyers, beef peptone and mild native wine. It sup plies iron to the blood, quiclsens the appetite, aids digestion, promotes proper assimilation of food, and en- riches the blood, and brings back the strength of renewed health.

TWELVE GOOD SlL0 REASONS
One erea, Obstacle, the Cost. May Be Partly Overcome by Construct
 Ing Pit Affair.
Shall 1 hnild a silo?

snail 1 build SllOf
 This question is being asked by the more enterprising farmers and ranch men all over the West.
 The cost Of the silo is the greatest obstacle. but if this stands seriously in the way a pit may be dug and fin ished at a cost not exceeding fifty to one hundred dollars for material. Pit silos are very satisfactory and are certainly to be desired rather than to have no silo at all.
 Twelve good reasons why the farm CT should provide himself with a silo are given by T. B. Woodward of the dairy division, United States depart ment Of agriculture, in Farmers Bul. letin No. 556. Every one of them touches some spot of vital importance to the feeder.
 1. More feed can be stored in q given space in the form of silage than in the form of fodder or hay.
 2. There is a smaller loss of food material when a crop is made into silage than when cured as fodder or hay.
 8. Corn silage is a more efficient feed than corn fodder.
 4. An acre of corn can be placed in the silo at less cost than the same area can be husked and shredded.
 5. Crop can be put in the silo dur ing weather that could not be utilized for making hay or curing fodder.
 6. More stock can be kept on a

NAME EXAMINERS
 IN OPTOME TRY
State Health Heads Announce
 Three Appointments.
POLLUTION LAW ENFORCED.
Professor Conn Submits His Report -Dr. Townsend Says the State Is Free From Epidemic
 Typhoid Threat Overcome.

Middletown.-The State board of health has reappointed James A Mas terson of Middletown and George A. Cnmstack of Ansonia on the board of examinations in optometry for three years. and J. c. Tracy of Willimantic has been appointed to fill out the unexpired term of R. N. Johnquist Of Stamford, resigned. The appoint ments were made under the law passed at the session of 1913. which vests in the state board of health the power to appoint.
 The board has instructed J. Fred erick Jackson of New Haven. it's en- gineer, to take steps to have the law concerning the pollution of streams, tidal waters and sources of water supIy, passed at the session of 1915, enforced. It is the intention of the board to exercise all the power which is now vested in it to secure for the people of the state pure water and to prevent the contamination of streams. Special attention will be given to the protection of water supply.
 Professor Conn of the state lab oratory at Middletown has made an interesting report of the work of the laboratory for the past three months.
 During that period the number of specimens examined was 3,757. This total included 1.246 diphtheria cul- lures and 409 particles of sputum from persons supposed to be suffer ing from tuberculosis. There were S96 samples of milk examined and 11S of water. Eighteen samples of sewage and twelve of oil were ex- amined. Professor Conn reported that in one sample of water exam ined for lead poisoning he found large amount of lead
 The board has approved the con tract with the Ledearle laboratory of New York for supplying the state with anti-taxin for the next two years.

given area of land when silage is the basis of the ration.
 [. There is less waste in feeding silage than in feeding fodder. Good silage properly fed is all consumed.
 8. Silage is very palatable.
 9. Silage, like other succulent feeds, has beneficial effect upon the diges- tive organs.
 10. Silage is the cheapest and best form in which succulent feed can be provided for winter use.
 II. Silage can be used for supple menting pastures more economically than can soiling crops, because it re- quires less labor, and silage is more palatable.
 12. Converting the corn crop into silage clears the land and leaves it ready for another crop.
 Almost anything in the way of for age crops may be put into the silo and will keep until it is needed.

Gets Award for Lead Poisoning.

New Haven.-In deciding the com pensation clai moi Lewis Miller of 61 Pardee street aganst the American Steel and Wire company. i'll which MMiller is awarded the sum of S714 and medical surgical and incidental expenses, Compensation Commission CT Beers has made a most interesting and important interpretation of the Connecticut compensation law in re- lation to the matter of so-ealled oecu- pational diseases. He holds that 'au occupational disease may or may not be a subject of compensation accord ing to the facts of the particular case"
 The claimant in this particular case presented his claim for lead poisoning "eontracted by working in and about a room in which were molten lead, fumes arising from molten lead, and small particles of lead and it's com pounds on the floor and throughout said room"
 In his memorandum Commissioner Beers says in part:
 "The injured employe in this case has suffered from lead poisoning, physical trouble classed under the head of occupational diseases. The subject of compensation for such dis eases has been under discussion in numerous authorities and adjudicated cases. some of which have been cited in argument and many of which have been examined
 "It must be remembered in this connection that the law of each state is dependent upon the terms of its statute. and that the true meaning and intent can only be reached by considering primarily that law and its peculiarities. The inclusion of the word accident in the statute of some sister states. and the practical ab- sence of that word from our own statute. seriously affects the value of many of the citations of cases ap- parently relevant The difference in the related provisions in our state and in many other states deprives other cases which might be relied up- on of the importance to which other wise they might be entitled.
 T have feacheu LHb colelusloH lhat an occupational disease may or may not be a subject of compensation, ac- cording to the facts of the particular case; that on the one hand physical disturbance is not necessarily to be eliminated because it falls under the head of an occupational disease, and that on the other the Connecticut compensation law does not embrace oecupational diseases as such, inde- pendently of the circumstances under which they are contracted.
 "At common law the mourning of a disease or harm to health is such personal wrong as to warrant recov- cry if the other clements of liability for tort are present.
 Among cases that may be cited that are consistent with the ruling here made is Hurie's case just re- ferred to.
 My conclusion Is that as the in- fury in question was one which oe- cured in the course Of and arose out Of the employment the claim should be allowed"
