in the historical foundation of the Chris
tan faith.

Plant at Least a Seed Patch of
Abruzzi Rye This Fall

I AduS az Least q SCSO dtCn OF
Abruzzi Rye This Fall
Progressive Farmer.
While generally we would
prefer crimson clover as a win
ter cover crop to plow under as
a fertilizer next Spring, the great
merits of Abruzzi rye as a win.
ter grazing and cover crop
should not be overlooked. In
troduced from Italy several years
ago, this variety of rye has in
nearly every section OF the Cot
ton Belt proved its great value.
Last year we knew of paintings
made the middle of September
that were knee high bv Christ
mas, and furnished excellent
grazing from December until
April, during a period when
green feed is always scarce.
Still another advantage of rye is
that it will grow on thin land,
affording more grazing under
such conditions than probah1v
any other crop.
Where early winter grazing is
wanted. planting should be done
about September Is, putting
from one to one and one-half
bushels of seed per acre. Where
it is intended to harvest the crop
for seed, planting in November
will be safer, since the earlier
paintings are likely to make a
heavy growth before winter is
over and be seriously injured bv
a late freeze.
While Abruzzi rye seed are
comparatively high. priced, be-
ing quoted now at from 81 to So
a bushel, the crop is such an ex-
cellent one that at least a small
area should be tried in order to
learn something of its merits.
Put in an acre seed patch, any
way, and then save enough seed
next spring to plant a nun Der OF
acres.
AS a winter grazing crop fol-

the colts to run, and as a means
Of getting hlgh-priced winter
eggs from the farm hens, readers
will find a field of Abruzzi rye
one of the best things ever fried.

Saved Bride and Saddle but
Left Horse

They are telling a good story
on Jesse Watts. son of Mr.. w. E.
Watts, of the Hornsboro section.
Recently he started to church
on horseback but before he got
there his horse fell and rolled
over on his back in a shallow
ditch. The boy tried every
method known to him to get the
horse out, but failed. He took
the bride and saddle and went
back home, and then went on
'possum hunting.
The horse lay there in the
ditch and scared a good many
horses as the people returned
from church, and was finally
raised by the boys father and
Others. The boy came in whist

his all-night' hunt entirely OBJ.

horse. If he remembered the
experience of the night before
there was nothing in this bear

edict that was pronounced Tuesday by Chief Michael Grimshaw.
 This community has been startled by the appalling automobile mott r. cycle accident on the West Side Mon day night. It brought home the fact that there is any amount of reckless driving in Danielson. Every day and every hour of the day there are vio- lations of the law and Chief Grim shaw is determined that they shall be stopped. He gives this warning as final one to be followed only by ar rests, and it won't make any difference who the violator happens to be, Wheth- CT he drives a high-priced flyer or a tin jitney, whether he has wealth or is without it, if he gets to speeding he will be arrested
 It is not to be inferred from this that the West Side accident was due to speeding; rather that that regret able affair has awakened the commu- nifty to the constant danger to life and limb from reckless motor vehicle op- eration. The accident on the West Side was a sickening one and it was apparently of the unavoidable kind, but the lesson it taught was that greater caution must be exercised and that laws must be obeyed.
 Chief Grimshaw says that this week will not come to an end without hav- ing witnessed some arrests for vio- lating the motor vehicle laws of his warning is not needed to the letter and this applies to every street and every driver. without any exceptions.

MISS PARKER LIVING,
 BUT CONDITION CRITICAL
Former Norwich Girl, Injured in Mo- toreycle Crash. Still Unconseious- Sorrow for Philip caffery's Death.

At the Day Kinball hospital in Put nam Tuesday afternoon Miss Lillian Parker, who was so terribly injured in the accident on the West Side on Monday evening, was declared to be in an exceedingly critical condition and there was little hope of her re- covery. Miss Parker's clothing was saturated with blood in spots, when she was picked up on the West Side, but it was found at the hospital that this blood came from her ears, indi- eating the fracture at the base of the skull, and not from cuts. Since the accident she has been unconscious or -e.1li-conscious and it is believed does not realize what has befallen her, so suddenly did the accident occur.
 Frank Moore. at whose home Phil ip Caffery, who was killed, and Miss Parker were visiting, said Tuesday that he was in his yard when the crash came. He heard Miss Parker screech and almost immediately the sound of the collision rang out.
 MT. Moore had lighted the lamp on MT. Caffery's machine and made it ready for him to depart. MT. Moore cannot recall whether MT Caffery sounded the horn on the motorcycle as he rode the machine out of his drive way, but. says that he had been sounding it to call Miss Parker from MT. Moore's home to start the trip to Attawaugan. Miss Parker and Mrs Moore were former schooimates.
 At Attawaugan there is profound sorrow over the death of MT. Caffery He was one of the finest young men in the village and everyone was his friend. Miss Parker was also vel liked there.
