ALLOWS s1 POO CLAIM
 FOR LABORER's DEATH

Compensation Commissioner B. TT. Buckingham turned over the $1.2QO damages claimed because of the death of Antonio Alvarez on a build ing job here. to the consular agent in New Haven, yesterday. Giovanni Pagfa, who was given the power of attorney by the widow of the deceas- ed, refused to take an oath before the commissioner and therefore was eliminated as an administrator. For this reason, the legal point as to whether or not the appointment of a prbate court shall supercede a desig- nation made by a resident of a for eign country, did not come before the commissioner.

CAPTAIN OF EMDEN SAYS DARDANELLES
 CANNOT BE FORGED


 Vienna,June 11.-An interview with Captain von fueeke. formerly of the German cruiser Enrden, in which he says the forcing of the Dardanel1es and the taking of Constantinople are impossible, is published by the news papers here. He declares submarines are likely to cut off the water supply of allied troops on the Gallipoli penin- sula, which would compel them to sur render, as they would be unable to return to their transports
 Captain Von MuecI1e says the guns of the British warships have been damaged by hard usage and that the superdreadnaugh Queen Elizabeth soon will be compelled to withdraw on this account. He asserts that the Turks have plenty of ammunition and are magnificent fighters. They lost heavily at first under fire of the guns of the fleet but now have dug them selves in and are using the best means possible to destroy allied landing par ties.

their business whether the motorist ever
got out, or whether he was seriously

catch fire and slowly roast him to death.
Their business was to drive along and
leave fellowbeing to his misfortune

barely casting mildly interested glance
at the wreck of the motor vehicle with
the struggling man beneath it. By good
fortune, the motorist was able TO wriggle

The official reports of the entente al
lies from the Balkans are most unre
liable, and again the London official press
bureau has been forced to retract posi-
tive statement. The statement in ques
ton told of the recapture of Veles by
the French when, as matter OF fact
veles still was in the hands of the cen
trail powers. The other notable illustra-
ton of absolute falsity was the report
of the capture of Strumsita in the lower
part Of Bulgaria. Strumitsa, let it be
stated, is still in the hands Of the Bull
garians. Without doubt the official
press bureau in London is itself grossly
misled.

very essential that the bull should
have plenty of exercise, which he can
not get If confined to a stall Where
It is impossible for the owner to fence
securely about one acre for the bull,
he can very easily provide the neces-
sary exercise by stretching a strong
wire between two substantial posts
and fastening the bull by chain from
the ring in his nose to airing which
slips loosely over the wire This
makes a secure fastening and one

bull makes a dangerous pet, and
should never be so far trusted as to
be in a position where he can get the
advantage of his attendant. Those un-
fortunate accidents which have some
times occurred have usually been due
to overconfidence on the part of the
attendant.
The bull should always be handled
kindly and firmly, and should under
stand that his attendant is his master.
1t is always advisable to train the bull
calf to lead, and a ring should be
placed in his nose at an early date.

VALUE OF THE "SCRAP HEAP"
Secondary Metals" Have Added Much
to the Wealth Of the United
States.

In 1914 the value of the secondary
metals" exclusive Of gold, silver, plat
mum, iron and steel, recovered in the
United States was $57,O39.7O6, accord
ing to J. P. Dunlop of the United
State geological survey. This is a
decrease from 1913 of $15,746.321, the
secondary metals recovered in that
year being valued at $72, 2,7S6,027.
The term secondary" does not i'm
ply that these metals, which are re-
covered from scrap metal, sweepings,

TEST OUT PROFITABLE COWS
important That Farmer Should Know
Quantity and Quality He 10 Re-
eeiVing From Animals.

CBy W. A. M'KERRoW, Minnesota Ex-
pertinent Station)
Feed is going to be higher than
usual this season unless all signs fail
It is, therefore, doubly important that
the farmer keeping dairy cows should
be sure that his cows are giving him
more than value received for what
they eat. The way to be cure Of this
is to have scales and Babcock tester.
This is only one of the reasons why
farmers should test their COWS for
quantity and quality of product.
Other reasons for cow-testing are.
1t enables the farmer to eliminate
cows that do not pay for their board.
1t saves many good cow from the
shambles.
1t is an encourager of good feeding
and good care.
1t gives the farmer an opportunity
to build up a good producing herd.
1t increases ones interest in dairy
ing as a business rather than as a
means of labor merely.
In short, it is plain common sense.
