Norwich Has Small Mosquito Problem
P L. Butterick, Expert Extermnaon of Pest says All That is Required is the Filling Draining of Few Old Ponds and Swamps- Places Cost Approximately $1.ooo

Mohegan Park.
 A few small depressions along Rockwell street might rarely breed a few mosquitoes in very wet weather but require no special treatment.
 Turner's Pond.
 If the gate to this pond is kept closed so that it's level is maintained, it would not breed. If it is kept open so that the water drains off, a defi- mite ditch should be dug through it so that no stagnant water remain on it's bed. The cost probably would be less than $50.
 Laurel Hill Near Sehoelhcuse.
 A small wet weather swamp east of the road might breed extremely in wet weather. A ditch from it's north east corner to the outlet culvert-a length of roughly 100 feet-should be ample to drain this. The cost should Golden Street.
 A small amount of water remains in the old gas works reservoir and would breed mosquitoes in warm weather. Its elimination could be ob- tained easily by lowering the outlet it's upper end. Cost $1O, more or less.

DO YOUR PART TO .,,
PREVENT FOREST FIRES

Forest fires formerly burned, on the
average, between 400 and 500 square
miles of timber land in Colorado saen
year. With an increased population
and better understanding of the
economic loss due to these fires, to-
gether with reasonably efficient or
gsnization for fighting forest fires, We
have reduced this loss to a compare
lively Insignificant amount. As this
season has started in with . deficiency
in precipitation, our fire protection or
ganizations may receive severe test.
The state has q fire fighting orga,-
izatfon, made up Of the sherihs 3an.l
their deputies, who by the law are also
fire wardens. It is the duty Of the
sheriff, undersheriffs and deputies, ia
case Of any forest or prairie fire, -
assume charge thereof; for controlling
and extinguishing the same, they may
call to their aid such person or persons
of their county as they may deem nee
esssry.
In many instances the sheriffs have
appointed special deputy sherifs to
serve as fire wardens. .-.
The state now employs q state foi-
ester, who, among other duties, is
charged with fire protection duties on
all forests. As his territory is as broad
as the state, he is chiefly employed 81
organizing the states fire fightiss
forces, compiling reports on fires anil
investigating causes, or working up
prosecution cases against offenders st

The citizens are urged to cooperate
in fire protection by using extreme pre-
caution with fire In the woods, /,

GIVING THE HOUSEWIFE
MORE THAN SHE DEMANDS

During these days of the high cost
of living the shrewd housewife de-
mands her moneys worth in all the
food she buys. To demand it is one
thing, but to actually receive it is
another.
You have a way Of detecting shot
measure, but how do you know you are
not receiving inferior qualityt
In purchasing foodstuffs how do you
determine whether or not you are re-
ceiying your full moneys worth. Do
you buy a certain brand because your
mother or grandmother always used its
Science has improved foodstuffs like
everything else. If you use q certain
brand because it has proven "satisfac-
tory to you" how can you be sure that
you are getting the best, keeping
abreast with the times, getting the lat
est improvements
In deciding upon different brands Of
foodstuffs there is only one way to
prove which gives the fullest value at
any price, and that one way is results
that which proves "Best by Test." Z"
A few manufacturers of food pro-
ducts guarantee to refund your money
if their brands do not prove best. Such

AZ I'm WINDOW

How doth the soft apartment life
The ills eliminate
OF wood-pile, AID CT ashes,
And work we used to hate!
No fires to build, no walks to clear,
No lamps to fill, and yet,
sometimes wish I'd never seen
A modern kitchenette!
Ny living-room commands view
OF chimney, wall, and roof,
A piece of sky, with many wires
OF luxury the proof.
The spring has come, and we'll I know
That on some budding bough,
If there's robin in the world,
He must be singing now!
Perhaps there must be cities built
With chimney, roof and wall,
With fire-escapes, and rain-pipe
For the good of one and all;
But let me draw the curtain down
And turn my face away
I'm homesiak just for apple-trees
And robin-songs today!

watered every watering day, and ~
result, only q thin layer Of dirt ON the

grass roots to turn upward, and very
soon the grass will have shallow

order to keep the grass alive it must
have water practically every watering
day.
The following is perhaps the best
method of irrigating lawn under the
before named conditions.
The lawn, when well soaked, tex
