State Gets Shelton Land.

The tuberculosis commission has secured a deed. in behalf of the state of the land adjacent to the tubercu losis institution at Shelton The price paid was S1.500 There are several fine springs on the land. and there can be utilized in such a way as to make them a valuable addition to the water supply of the institution. At present the supply for protection against fire consists mainly of 20, GOO gallons of water on a tank
 The legislative committee on ap propriations. while it recommended the appropriation Of sum for the pur chase Of the land on which the springs were located did not make provision for construction of a plant to enable the commission to use the water The commission had hoped that the com. mittee would recommend an appro. priation that would be sufficiently large to enable 1t to install a sprink Ter system in the institution If that had been done the protection of the building from fire would be much more satisfactory.
 Local conditions at Shelton do not provide. adequate fire protection. If fire were to break out in the insti- tuition the buildings might be en- tirely destroyed before assistance from the borough of shelton could reach the scene.
 At the meeting of the tuberculosis commission in the capitol, the situa- ton at Shelton was discussed and the fact recognized, as never before. that 1t was pity the state should have such a fine water supply going to waste when 1t was needed for the Institution. The members Of the com mission hope that at the legislative session of 1917 an appropriation will be made for the installing of sprink- lers and the placing of pipes from ,he springs through which the water gan be made available in the build nRs.

 Hartford Cattle Commissioner lief. frey O. Phelps received from the bu- reau of animal industry in Washing ton, D. C.. a circular in which it was stated that Connecticut was free from the foot and mouth disease.
 This was the first official announce ment that state was entirely freed from the disease. Heretofore the an. nouncements have been made of the freedom of sections only of the state. New London county was the last part of the state to be declared free, For some reason the disease fingered in that county longer than in any of the other seven counties. and an effort has been made to discover reason for this lingering but without success. It did not appear to the federal or state officials that there was anything in the condition of Now London conn. ty that made 1t peculiarly favorable to the spreading of the disease.
 II is just a peculiar incident. ths officials declare that they have met in diuerent parts of the country and which they attribute to the condition of the cattle.
 Commissioner Phelps will now is. sue an order declaring the entire state free from quarantine restrie. tions in accordance with the communi. cation received from the federal au. thorities in Washington, This means that so far as the shipment of cattle out of this state is concerned. normal conditions have been restored that is. the conditions which existed be. fore the restrictions, made necessary on the discovery of the disease were imposed or course, no cattle can be admitted into the state without a per init from the cattle commissioners; but that restriction has nothing tc do with the steps taken to suppress the foot and mouth ailment Com missioner Phelps on his recent visIi 10 Vermont where he was the guest of the cattle commissioner Of thai state, was pleased to see at White River Junction. the central point foI shipping evidence in the way of re markahle cleanliness.

 Washington Official confirmation of the reoeeHpatiea of Mexico City by CarruNsta forces commanded by General Pablo Gonzales reached che State Department in 8 brief dispatch from Vera Cruz. sent by Commander Luke McNamee of the United States gunboat Sacramento at that port Nc details were gwen. The reoecupa. tion Of the Mexican capital by tn. Garrranzistas Is not expected in off eial circles here to make any distinct difference in the general military and political situation in Mexico at least not at present but is regarded as giving hope that t will be followed by reopening of communication be tween Vera Cruz and Mexico City and the shipment of Red Cross and other supplies into Mexico City for the relief of the needy populaee.
 It appears that General Gonzales returned from the vicinity of Pachuca to Mexico City without meeting and giving battle to the Villa flying col umn. commanded by General Rodolfo Fierro. and that it was considered more important to undertake the task of opening communication and at tending to the chaotic and distress ing situation in the capital.
