or boxing for market, carting to the station and shipping away. From actual counts one tree which had H. 45O apples thinned off produced A. 820 at harvest which were valued at $9.80, another tree as near like it as it was possible to estimate was un- thinned and 5,605 fruits were har- vested with a value of $7.62, a differ ence of $2.18, the cost of thinning was 35 cents. In the case of the thinned tree the fruit was larger and most of it went as fancy while from the un- thinned tree over half of it had to go into the lower grade because of size, color and blemishes.
 The actual thinning is done by use of the fingers or by special shears. Some varieties of apples are easily thinned by breaking the stem of the fruit while other varieties cannot be thinned without injury to the fruit spur, except by use of the shears. Only one fruit should be allowed to each fruit spur and if the fruit spurs are close together entire clusters may be removed allowing the remaining fruits to be at least six inches apart. A common rule to follow is to thin so that the mature fruit will not touch. Thus small varieties do not require as much space as larger ones. Six to eight inches is a common distance for apples and peaches, plums little less. The strength of the tree will not be wasted if this work is done soon after the June Drop" or natural thinning has taken place.

STATE J|TNEURS WANT THIS CITY
 TO EXACT BOND
Association Will Petition Com mon Council to Put Re-
 strictiOn on Drivers.

The State Jitney Association will soon petition the common council to pass an ordinance forcing every jitney driver to file a bond of 1000 as a con- dition of being issued a license to drive.
 This is the only way to prevent reckless driving" said Al Feirman, of Bridgeport a member of the state council of jitney drivers in addressing the New Haven councils committee on ordinances this week.
 Waterbury, South Norwalk and New London already have passed such ordinances.
 Jitney drivers in this city who have taken insurance from companies for their passengers declare that the in- huence of the insurance inspection and the refusal to grant reinsurance after any accident has a great moral eff feet upon drivers and greatly en- hances the safety of passengers using the jitneys.

Trua Blue.

The expression true blue," which we hear so often. has not even an Eng fish percentage. but is said to have been a Spanish saying which meant that the blood that filled the veins of the aris- tocracy of Spain was blue in color, while that of the inferior mortals was more or less black, and the proverb that true blue will never stain'' in stead of meaning. as it is generally supposed. that "a noble heart will nev. CT disgrace itself.' actually refers to the .'blue aprons" worn by butchers on account of their not showing blood stains-a far jump this from the blue blood of the naughty Spanish aristo- crat to the humble apron of butchers bOy.-London Express.

 we find the chances for therecovery of
 function multiplied many fold, and
 cases seemingly hopeless are often re- stored to activity. The use of braces
 or other mechanical appliances and
 orthopedic operations should never be
 undertaken before a muscle survey is
 made in the manner advised by Lovett, for the purpose of determining what
 particular group of muscles and what
 particular muscle function must be
 assisted or guarded.
 Whenever possible, parents must be
 warned lest a badly paralyzed and in-
 active child overeat and become help
 less on account of excessive weight.
 At the Gates Hospital for Crippled Children, we have had in our short career of one year, two cases in which
 excessive adipositas was the deciding factor between the wheel chair and
 walking.
 The death rate of epidemic infantile
 paralysis is as high as that of any of the most serious diseases of childhood. While a few perfect complete cures are authentically reported, the vast | majority of patients make only a par , tial recovery of muscle power with a
 more or less imperfect functional re- | suit.
 Spontaneous cure unassisted by treatment, is at its maximum in from three to six months.
 Careful treatment-physiolog rest | graded massage, stimulating electric applications, resistance exercises, mus Gle training, etc.-improves greatly | the chances for partial recovery and
 lengthens indefinitely the period in
 which such recovery can take place. Misuse, overwork, overstimulation, l over-exertion, contractures and defor- ] mites are particularly harmful and detract from the power of recovery
 and often destroy what little muscle power has been gained.
 The prognosis should always be | guarded, conservative and truthful.

Ahsentm:nded Lord Derby,

Lord Derby could be very absent- minded, and once on a time he walked with Lord Clarendon, his opponent, and told him all the secrets of the cab inet. Lord Clarendon listened amazed, but thought it too large an order whe.a he was asked for his advice. It was not for him to counsel his political foes. At this 1ntimation Lord Derby woke up, saying, Really, I thought all the time I was talking to colleague!" He had continued, hardly recognizing the fact, a controversy he had been having with other ministers at the for eign office. Of course Lord Clarendon honorably preserved the cabinet se- crets, but he told his story against Lord Derby and made laugh.

POULTRYMAN FIEECF,D

Stamford, Aug. 4-Antonio Suro- week.. who raises poultry for the mar ket in Great Harrington, Mass. got q helping hand from the police today so that he could get back to his farm He had lost $66O which he had brougbt here.
 Suroveck said he met two men Ia s+ Sunday to whom he talked of his ef- forts to raise s2,0oO to buy out his partner. One of the men said he had relative in the treasury depart- men who could secure all the dollars he needed for 33 1-3 cents each. and offered to get s2,000 for Suroveck # the latter had $660. Suroveck accent ed the offer. He paid over the amount here yesterday to the men who after giving him a locked suitcase con- taining apparently four rolls of bills, disappeared bidding him wait for their return. When they failed to reappear he broke open the suitcase and found the rolls to be of paper. around each of which had been wrap ped a real dollar bill. The police gave the man a nights lodging and his carfare home.

THINNING THE FRUIT CROP

A farmer would never expect to harvest a good crop of mangels or tur- nips unless they had been we'll thin- ned when the plans were smtll; the boy with his prize acre of corn is very careful not to have the plants stand tooo thickly, this is so that each indi- vidual plant may develop and produce it's maximum crop of size. The same principle should apply to fruit trees which are heavily loaded with small fruit where each individual is trying to develop in spite of the crowded con- dition. with the result that at harvest time there Is an abundance of small
 misshapen, wormy and unmarketable

fruit From the standpoint of the
 tree. whose sole purpose is to produce
 an abundance of seed, this is all that
 can be desired but from the growers side, this is exactly the opposite con-
 dition, he wants large, handsome and
 marketable fruit. It is the flesh of
 the fruit which the public wants and not the seed, thus a large apple hav- ing the same weight as two smaller apples may be worth ten cents While the smaller ones are of no value ex- cept for cider.
 A grower may prune, spray, fertillze and have his orchard in first class condition but if he neglects to thin his fruit the resulting crop may not sell
 for enough to pay for the work put upon the orchard. It is hardly nec-
 essary to cite instances of the value of
 thinning to the grower who depends
 upon his orchard for a livelihood for
 he has found by experience that it pays to thin, but for those who have never practiced thinning a few of the reasons are given.
 Thinning allows each fruit to devel- op and color to it's fullest capacity. It preventh overlooking and breaking of the branches. It lowers the cost Of harvesting, grading and packing.
 Trimmed fruit sells for higher price, By preventing overbearing and thus weakening of the tree it tends to an- nual bearing. Trimmed trees will produce as many packages of fruit as
 the unthinned and it will be of higher quality The insect marked or mis- shapen fruits are removed. By thin
 ming peaches and plums the spread of Brown Rot is checked.
 Many people think of the cost or thinning and fail to see the results Of the work but let us see how it works out One movement or action re- moves a fruit from the tree and it is allowed to fall to the ground. If this fruit were allowed to remain on the tree until harvest time and then pick ed. the following steps would be nec-
 essary: picking from the branch, plac- ing in the basket, emptying into a bar rel, drawing to the packing house, placing upon the sorting table, putting into the basket of the proper grade. placing in the final package. heading

New Pressing Machine.

George Fell, proprietor of the Bow
man cleaning and pressing parlors,
yesterday installed 1916 model
Hoffman steam pressing machine
which is the latest word in pressing
equipment. 1t has many new fea-
lures and is a marked improvement
over the old steam machine and does
work that is distinguished markedly
from work done by a hand iron The
pressing buck is curved and a pres
sure up to 1000 pounds can be exert
ed. Through perforations steam can
be thrown into the cloth from both
sides of the press and a vacuum ar
rangement enables the steam to be
thoroughly sucked out after It has
done its work. The new machine not
only expedites the pressing business
but enables the plant to give much
more superior service and in addi-
tion. takes away the unsanitaIy fea-
lures Of the old system.

JEWELS

n UAAG believe that the chief value
lV Of watch movement depends
upon the number and nature of
the jewels it contains. One reason for
this fallacy is the venerable tradition
which surrounds the word 'jeweI,"
and its general acceptance as an ex-
preston Of value. The other is the
popular idea that highest grade
watches always contain the most
Jewels. The average person knows
little about the functions Of Jewels in
a timepiece. Perhaps he regards
them as necessary to reduce friction,
but he is probably uncertain even on
that point When a dealer lays be-
fore the intending buyer an assort-
ment of watches, one containing fif-
teen jewels another seventeen, an
other tFenty-one, usually he need not
speak further about the respective
qualities Of the movements. Should
he display one with twenty-five Jewels
the customer might be easily cOnvinc-
ed that it was better than any of the
others. The prevailing error in this
respect has been both carelessly and
Intentionally encouraged.
Two Kinds of Jewels
Watch Jewels are Of two kinds Ser
vice and Display. There are at least
seven Jewels in every well constructed
lever escapement movement. These
are placed in the escapement. The
balance wheel vibrates $4,000 times
an hour, and the staff to which it is
secured rotates more than any other.
AT each end should be two Jewels.
