Why is it" asks writer in the
New York World, that, although this
years harvest is the most bountiful
in many years, there is, in the large
cities, ne appreciable. reduction in the
cost of fiving?" The answer is Civ
en- by David Lubin, permanent dele
gate of the United States to the In
ternational Institute of Agriculture at
Rome. Mr.. L.ubin has for many years
been a merchant and fruit grower in
California, but lately he has spent
much time abroad studying questions
relating to agriculture. He has ap-
peared before many congressional
commissions, and in many cases the
Government has looked to him for de-
tailed information about conditions
abroad He also knows this country
thoroughly. and he has seen some Of
his schemes for helping the farmer to
get more money for his produce and
the consumer to pay less, succeed in
actual practice.
Two causes. both of which the
farmer could remedy, are at the bot
tom of the present situation, Mr. Luz
bin says. The prosperity of the far
mer will never be assured until he
learns the value Of thorough organi-
zation of agricultural production and
distribution, and until he prevails on
the Government to establish credit in
stitutions which will enable him to
borrow money at low rate Of inter-
est. In support of his argument for
an organization Of farmers which will
work for the betternent of market
conditions throughout the country he
points to the success Of the German
Farmers Council" This is an orga-
nization supported by practically
every farmer in the German Empire
Its officers are elected BY popular
vote By choosing the right kind oI
men it has developed such strength
that the Government never passes :

sulting the executive committee o

NO COTTON USED
 IN MAKING POWDER
Germany's Experiments With Substi- tutes For Past Eight Months
 Prove Successful.

Bremen, Germany, Dec. 29, via Lon don, 12:1O D. m.-Germany's experi- ments with substitutes for cotton in the manufacture of gun powder have been so successful, 1t was announced here today, that for eight months no cotton has been used for this purpose. This statement was made by the presi- dent of the Bremen Chamber of Com merce in an address to convention of merchants of this city.
 After referring to the designation of cotton as contraband by Great Britain, he said: 1T have had the op- portunity to establish officially that for eight months not kilogram of cotton has been used for making pow der. Thanks to the work of Ger man science and industry, we have succeeded in winning from the inn measurable supply of German forests a cellular material which is cheaper and better suited for powder making than cotton. Even after the war German ammunition factories will not buy another bale of cotton from America.
 ''The second important ingredient saltpeter-of the entire Chilean output of which we formerly took two- thirds, is now manufactured exclusively in Germany from the air. Our factories already are so advanced that in the coming spring they will be able to cover the entire requirements for ni- trogen, including the amount used in agriculture, and if the war lasts longer they will even be able to export this product"
 The speaker also asserted that cam- phor. which for seven years has been produced synthetically from American turpentine, is now obtained more cheaply and in better quality by chemical means from synthetic tur- pentine. Even after the war, he said, there will be no more importa- tions of camphor from Japan or tur- pentine from America.

 First Selectman w. J. Johnson is planning to bring before the board of selectmen at it's regular meeting to- morrow night the matter of issuing a call for hearings regarding the &C., ceptance of the new street lines pre- pared in accordance with the survey made on Broad. Bohemia and Maple streets by Engineer J. N. McKernan,
 While the changes seemingly are acceptable to the property owners, the selectman is anxious to have them thoroughly understood before they are formally recorded
 The law makes the holding of for mai hearings necessary before the se- lectmen act. The call must be is- sued at least two weeks before the property owners assemble.
 May Buy Mason Property.
 According to reports in circulation today the Cahill company of Meriden, which recently purchased property rom E T. Carter as a site for a three story provision storehouse, is nego- tiating for the place owned by the Mason family and which adjoins the land it recently acquired
 The company proposes to start work on the new building in the near future and it is said that it has use for more land than it now owns.
