BRAVE SOLDIER OF THE CIVIL WAR IS
 DEAD AT "A YEARS
Capt: William C. Smith Res cued COlOrs of His
 Company.

Capt. William c. Smith. a resident of Stratford for more than 35 years, a Civil war veteran and an ex-deputy sheriff of New York, died last night at his home, 773 King street, Strat- ford aged "A years. Capt. Smiths death is thought to have been hasten ed by grief over the demise of his daughter, who passed away about six months ago. Since that time he has been very unhappy although previ- ous to her death he had enjoyed good health.
 The deceased at one time was ad- jutant general on the grand marshaPs staff of the G. A. R., and vas chap lain in the J. Lafayette Riker post, No. 62, of New York, for many years. For six years he was connected with c. J. Flynn, in the real estate business in the Warner building. He retired from active work about three years ago. Capt. Smith was at one time member of a volunteer fire depart ment in New York.
 In 1861 when the Civil war broke out, he enlisted in the Fortieth New York Volunteers and remained with the command until 1862 when he was transferred to the 54th New York Volunteers; better known as the Bar ney Rifles, which took a leading part in the battle of Gettysburg. He was promoted rapidly. until he reached the position of captain. While still a sergeant he received honorable men, tion for having saved the colors of the Barney Rifles when two color bearers in rapid succession were shot down. It was after this battle that he receiv- ed the promotion to the captaincy.
 Captain Smith is survived by his widow, one son, William c. Smith, IT,, and three step sons, Frederick, Ches- ter and Wilson Donaldson, all of whom live in Stratford. There are also ten grandchildren living.
 The funeral will be held at 3:30 to- morrow afternoon and burial will be in the family plot in Union cemetery, Stratford. The Elias Howe, Jr., post, G. A. R., and the Women's Relief Corps, Elias Howe Jr., post, will att tend and will hold their services.

 These figures far from convincing shown for instance what charged distribution What the figures for deprecaton? What salaries do the officers of the distributing receive? How many cures charged against the business?
 Probably the actual profits larger than the fc,res would make it Nevertheless the large corporations that sell milk labor Under the disadvantages that burden the individual operators All have o the burden on of wasted energy of costly delivery from door,

REAL ESTATE MAN SEES BACK TO EAST
 MOVEMENT SOON

Central Iowa, Missouri and parts of Minnesota are overboomed and the virgin soil is petering out with the result that Back to the East Move ment has started, according to inform ation furnished today by Alexander Dannenberg, the real-estate operator who has spent six weeks in the middle west.
 Property values in Iowa are excess i've. The boom in farm lands sent the prices soaring, which with high rates of interest charged by banks. have brought farmers who relied upon the fertility of the, soil to their knees.
 Many of these farmers came from Connecticut and other New England states. They tolerated the long roll ing stretches of prairie as long as the profits were big. But their hearts lie with the mountains. streams and fields of the east. Many of them have already returned to their na- tive towns to take up abandoned farms and cultivate intenkvely. Oth- CTS are ready to leave whenever op- portunity to sell western property presents.
 sIn Minneapolis, where I was once engaged in the flour exchange busi- ness, find that war orders for fu- ture delivery are scarce. The only ones being filled are those contract ed for some months ago. Unless there is a sudden change the prices for domestic consumption should drop this winter. The fact of the allies buying so little for future delivery is strongly commented upon in the Flour Club at Minneapolis as having a possible bearing on the termination of the war abroad"

The Cooling Sun.

Life on this planet will end in gla-

says NJ, Verronet, mathematician. NJ.
Verronet's prediction is less generous
than some of his fellow scientists es-
Inmates, at least one of which allows
us hundred million years more of
work and play, love, make-believe,
murder and carnage. Even if our
mathematician has his figures rightly
calculated, two million years is long
enough to serve a great many pur-
poses. But who knows what supple
ments we may yet discover for this sun
of ours-that now serves as heating
and lighting plant? Who knows al
the secrets stored for us in radium, in
electricity, in forces and elements I'M

ecy is ,diverting, but this world is q

A Great and Growing Industry.

Some idea of the Importance of the
dairy industry to Minnesota can be
CLEANED from the following from the
Farm Stock and Home:
Minnesota has 852 creameries, and
the total amount of butter manufac-
tured in the state last year was 1885,
1892 pounds. There are seventy
cheese factories in the state and the to-
tai production of cheese last year was
5,594,578 pounds in Minnesota. Pat
rons Of the cheese factories were paid
$763,587 last year. The cows Of Min
nesota produce each year $96,O0O,O 900
in calves and milk and the various uses
to which milk is put. Creamery pat
rons of Minnesota were paid $32,O66,-
022 in cash last year. Minnesota has
1,125,000 mich cows. Minnesota is the
only state which conducts it's own state
creamery. Minnesota butter is valued
at soc, 100000 annually"
