full. The county pays the the cost
of housing and feeding the men.
They are living in tents, being we'll
fed, and the arrangements are made
for them to have recreation and
play games after working hours
and the men are well satisfied
with their new work.
If this work really proves sue

with the convicts every county in

School HEADS
RATHER
JURYMEN'S IDEA
Superintendent Kinney Inclined
to Approve Separate Control
of industrial Schools

The proposal 10 take the boys and
girls reform schools from the juris-
diction of the department OF public
instruction, as recommended in the
final report Of the 1914 territorial
grand Jury, the story Of which was
published in the Star-Bulletin yester-
day, Is not entirely new, though 1t
has never before been generally dis
cussed.
Superintendent Henry w Kinney of
the department OF public instruction
stated today that in a letter read at
the last meeting OF the school com
mission Territorial Secretary w w.
Thayer made a suggestion that II
might be found advisable TO transfer
the control of these reformatory insti-
tutions TO the Juvenile court.
At that time Superintendent Kinney
endorsed Thayer's idea and spoke be-
fore the board in its favor There ap-
peared some division of opinion among
the commissioners, however, and since
then the superintendent has sent let
tiers TO the individual members ask
ing their judgment on the question.
Not all have replied as yet, and 1t Is
impossible to say what position the
commission as a body will take on it.
Il think u would be advisable for
practical PURPOSES to give control of
those schools to the Juvenile court or
10 "a separate commission" said Kin.
ney today. The jurisdiction of our
board issonly nominal. after all. Judge
Whitney selects the children who shall
be inmates of the institutions, and
while as superintendent must grant
their release, my function is purely
automatic and governed entirely by
Judge Whitney's wishes. ST.. b.
AT present We have charge OF the
expenditures for their maintenance or
improvements but these in general
are definitely fixed in character by the
legislature when II passes upon our
school budget The items for the re-
form schools are set forth as such in
our biennial budget. 1t would be easy
for the legislature to pass these items
as a separate budget, to be put into
the hands Of separate commission"

Conditions in our leaf market are

to keep the trade at least moderately
busy. Demand has sprung up for the
new Havana seed, while the shade

importers have braced up pluck and
will brave the risk threatened by the

The misgivings of farmers, especial
ly tobacco growers IN Suttield, Ct, and
vicinity, caused by the shortage of the
potash supply was the occasion OF my
interview with DIR. Jenkins of the Con-
necticut station at New Haven last
week on this important subject. He
stated that a good many growers were
preparing to grow their crop without
any potash at all; that there was such
a considerable excess of this food in
most of the lands long cropped to to-
bacco, that year or two without ad-
ditional application of potash would
probably not decrease the yield to any
appreciable extent. There is no doubt
that for several years past tobacco
fields have been fed heavily with pot
ash. This was done because any lack
of burning quality in the leaf was as
cribed to deficiency in potash. Ex-
periments by growers have proved this
not to be a fact, and certain growers
who had dressed their lands very heav-
ily in the past have omitted all potash
from their formulas for three years in
succession and have raised excellent
crops. thus utilizing the abundant sup
ply already in the soil. Tobacco stems,
when used as fertilizer, supply both
nitrogen and potash in fairly liberal
quantities to the soil. Prices in past
years have varied widely and the anal
ysis of stems is not stable, due to the
quantity of sand and water present.
They are sometimes considered a good
purchase at $40 per ton, but they have
/ sold at times at very much higher
figure Average chemical analysis OF
tobacco stems is 10 per cent moisture,
23 per cent nitrogen, per cent pot
ash, total phosphoric acid O.6 per cent,
lime 3.9 per cent, magnesia 1.2 per
cent, insoluble matter 0.8 per cent.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, Feb. 22, 1915.
Last years Connecticut crop was so
profitable to it's producers that, beyond
doubt or cavil, there will be an increase
in the acreage this year. The worst
feature Of the whole season of 1914 was
the appearance of white veins, which
became prevalent in only part of the
crop. This was due to excessive moist
ure around packing time, and it is not
to be supposed that it will recur this
year or the next or the next, for that
matter. The cultivation of shade-grown
tobacco in Connecticut is in a fair way
to show a healthy increase this year.
In the last ten years the practice has
attained varying degrees of popularity,
but in 1915 it seems sure that there
will be big shade-grown acreage.

Bad weather and disturbed roads
have had depressing effect on tobacco
traffic of late. Last week, and espec-
tally Friday and Saturday, reminded us
of last season, the deliveries being
heavy. Some of it was shipped to La
Crosse, Edgerton and other places,
while the local warehouses took in large
quantities. Most of this delivery has
been purchased outright and many
crops delivered to the pool recently
formed, which is working full crew
and will have all the house can handle
till late in the spring. A good deal of
complaint is made regarding smallness
of the leaf and withered quality. Prices
range from to IL cents. Censor.

EDGERTON, WIS, March 5, 1915.
An extensive buying movement of
the tobacco crop is still under way in
nearly all sections of the state, which
is lifting a good many hundred acres
each week. 1t is quite probable that
close to two-thirds of the crop has been
disposed of. The buyers of stemming
goods are apparently getting their or
ders nearly filled and are retiring some
of their men, The bulk of the sales
continue at low prices. Our quotations
are for the better lots only:

The Society of Equity has started
packing operations at six different
points in the state, handling the crops
of growers unwilling to accept the pre-
vailing prices.
The country roads have been favor
able for quite heavy deliveries the past
week and stocks are accumulating at
the warehouses which are in full opera
tion at the packing points.
A dull market for old leaf prevails in
all quarters.
The shipments out of storage reach
700 cases and 7 cars of bundles to all
points for the week. Since last report
40 car loads have been received for
warehouse handling.
