HINTS ON THE
HINTS ON THE
 CARE OF CHICKS. County Farm Bureau Says Proper Feeding is Essential.

The New London County Farm Bu- reau has prepared the following hints or the care of chicks:
 PruEer feeding of chicks is essen tial: poor feeding kills many of them each season. The first chick feed should tc a dry mixture of cracked grains. cracked corn, wheat, kaffir corn and pin head oatmeal are all good with plenty of good grit.
 Leg weakness is the result of lack of bone making feed. Feed a small quantity of bone meal or cracked bone while the chicks are growing, grow ing and growing feathers at the same time is a heavy strain and needs good nouTlshment. Sour milk or ten t1UN per cent of beef scrap will help to hrild muscle, feathers and bone.
 Feed Ilenty of green food such as lettuce, clover, onion tops, etc. If the chicks can not be allowed a grass run, they must have something of this kind to thrive the best.
 Avoid crowding at night by provid- ir.g comfortable roasting perches and encourage them to roost young on fiat perches ill quarters that are free from mites. which can be kept absolutely free from these troublesome pests by the use of Arenarious Carbolineum. Paint your perches, nest boxes and breeders once a year ana the work is done efficiently. The results will be most gratifying but be careful and do not allOw the chicks to get against it while LrCsh as 1t is very strong and will blister.

Fox Hill SchooInnates and Teachers
 Recalled.

Mrs. c. P. Miner, of North ston- ington writes:
 With sadness I noted the sudden death of Mrs. Margaret Robinson Per kins of Norwich. Mrs. Perkins was a schoolmate and intimate friend of the writer over half century ago. She was of a sunny disposition and made friends wit hall who knew her. She was always a favorite with her school mates and some of the pleasantest recollections of my girlhood days were spent at the old school house situated at the foot of Fox hill and even now I fancy can see some of the teach CTS. There was Avery 4. Stanton. l think he is still alive and resides at Ekonk Hill. Then there was Edwin A. Fitch. I think after teaching he went into the store business. Some of his pupils used to think he was very se- were, but if we had more teachers like MT. Fitch now our school would be brought up to a much higher stand ard. His task was no easy one. I re- member on several occasions when he remained over night in the school room, using a bench and his coat for a bed. The places where he would want to go were not always conven- tent. xEecollect1 distinctly my father

HOW TO BE SLIM

If you are too fat and want to reduce your weight 15 or 20 pounds, don't starve and weaken your system, or think you must always be laughed at on ac- count of your fat, but go to Lee & Osgood or any good druggist, and get a box of Oil of <orein capsules, take one after each meal and one before retiring at night.
 Weigh yourself once a week and note what 8 pleasant and reliable method this is for re- moving superfuous fat from any part of the body.
 It costs little, is absolutely harmless, and weeks trial should convince anyone that it is unnecessary to be burdened with even a single pound of un- slightly fat.

for Purpose or Protecting Norwich
 Health Officer Edward J. Brophy said on Thursday night that Norwich people need not be greatly alarmed if their children show signs of indis- position at the present time as it is quite common for young children to be indisposed at this time of the year.
 However he does not mean that no attention be paid to the children's S ills for @ close watch should be kept up 10 prevent the infantile paralysis from entering Norwich There are no cases here and no suspected cases and the health officers precautions and activities are for the purpose of Keeping the dread disease out of Nor Wich.
 It has been said that the disease is not as fatal as some others. This may be so as far as the death rate is concerned but 1t must be remem- bered that the after effects nearly all ways leave the child in a pitiable con- ditiOn. In but very few cases does the patient ever fully recover the use Of the affected limbs and in some cases all four limbs are affected by the disease.
 Thursday morning one hundred and forty eight children came up on the steamer Chelsea and were all exam ined for infantile paralysis by Health Officer D. J. BTCDhy and Drs. Walker and DrIscOl No suspicious cases were found. One mother had six small children with her and besides her youngsters was surrounded with numerous packages which she had brought with her from New York city, She remained on the wharf until about 10 o'clock when the person who was to call for her arrived.

by William Demetral, the Greek Crap

500 for accomplishing the feat.
Stecher won in straight falls, winning
the first in 6:42 with a body scissors
and wrist lock, and the second in 2::37
with the same hold The Greek was
not in class with the man who looms
up as the coming champion.
Demetral accomplished something
that no other wrestler has done in the
short time that Stecher has been in
the public eye. Joe was thrown out
of the ring during the first fall, and if
it had not been for actual wrestling
rules Demetral might have won the
fall.
