NOTICE OF APPEAL. FILED
Judqe Reed Refused to Set Aside Ver- dict in Craney- Donovan Case-Mo- ton of Non-suit Granted in Ray mond- Drew Case.

Judge Reed refused to set aside the verdict in the Craney-DonOvan case in the superior court Thursday morn in gand a notice of appeal to the su- preme court of errors was filed.
 A motion of non suit was granted in the Raymond vs Drew case by Judge Reed after reviewing the case at some length.
 The case was a contest over the $10, GOO estate of Mrs. Daniel Carroll Both MT. and Mrs.~CarroH died in 1914 and Mrs. Carroll had previously made over all of her estate to her daugh- ter, Mrs. Drew. and the latter is car ing for an invalid brother as Mrs. Carroll had expressed a desire in a will years ago but when the will was probated there was no estate to ad- minister.
 Papers have been filed in the case of Henry G. Peck and John McWil- Hams. composing the firm of Peck McWiliiams Go. vs. the MacKay Cop per Process Go. of this city. organized under the laws of Arizona. It is al- legged that the plaintiffs were awarded Judgment flor $n190.12 on June IS, 1915, and the sum of $4S8.74 has been paid and suit is brought for the re- mainder of the judgment.
 Judge Reed granted a motion to set aside the verdict in the Barber vs. Great Atlantic and Pacific ease which was for $1096 and in his memoran- dunn to set aside the verdict Judge Reed said there was no evidence from which the jury could fairly find either that the plaintiff was in the exercise of dire care or that the defendants driver was negligent. According to the testimony the plaintiff stepped in- to the street to cross it dIagonally with his bundles under his arm and had advanced somewhere from or to 10 or 12 feet, according to the variation of witnesses. when he was struck He says he looked up the street to see if anything was coming and saw nothing. It was light and there was no traffic in the street al the time, except the plaintiff and this l team. The team must have been clost l by him at the moment he stepped of | the sidewalk. If he saw the team ht was careless in stepping off in iron l of it. If he did not see it it was be- ] cause he did not look. If he did no look he certainly was careless. | There is nothing to show that tht l driver was careless. I have had soIn' doubt whether the Hast clear chance l doctrine did not have some applica l ton, but have concluded that it doe | not.
 l If it had, the. burden is upon tn plaintiff to show it and he has no done so.

COLD WEATHER AFFECTS
 HENS AT SroRRs
4. p. Robinson's Pen. of White Leg horns Leads in Weeks Production.

The continued cold weather for the past two weeks is having it's affect on the hens in the laying contest at storrs. Some of the birds are hold ing up finely under the unfayorable weather conditions, but all of the pens taken together were more than 200 eggs under last weeks production and about 50 eggs under the production for the corresponding week a year ago, the exact yield for the week being 1720 eggs.
 A. P. Robinsons pen of White Leg horns from CaIverton, N. F., were an easy first with A eggs to their chedit. Another New York pen entered by J. O. LeFevre from New Paltz, got second place with a production of 30 eggs, Jules E. F6ancaisf were third with 3S, and Braieside Poultry Farms Whit Leghorns from Stroudsburg, Pa, laid 37 eggs and were in fourth place. Three pens including Buff and White Wyandottes, and Rhode Island Reds tied with 34 eggs each, and four pens including Buff Wyandottes, Rhode Is- land Reds, and White Leghorns, tied with B eggs each.
 It appears fro minauiries sent to the management of the contest that chick en pox, sometimes called sorehead, has found it's way into a number of hocks. Everyone comedies that chicken pox is troublesome to handle. As in the case of nearly all other diseases, the sick birds should be at once isolated. Daily doses of calcium sulphide in a wet mash, allowing one grain for each hen, is one of the best prophylactics. It should be given both to the sick and the we'll one for a period of four or five days, and then after a rest pe- riod of equal length, give it again for four or five days. A good heavy the warty like scabs that appear on the comb nd wattles. Liquizone oint- ment, on account of it's color, is sat- fsfactory thing to use; it is white which makes it easy to know whethre one has greased a bird or not. If the scabs are very close to the eye, it is better to dust in iodiform, else the sight might be injured.
