CONDEMNS MAGAZINE.
Ohio State Board of Charities Send
 UnfavorabIe Report

Several weeks ago there appeared in this city two solicitors claiming to represent the Mothers and Children's Aid society, seeking aid in the fight against tuberculosis, by selling a, ten cent magazine. The attention of the Chamber of Commerce was called to the couple and the matter was taken up at once. One of the solicitors in a discussion with Secretary Andrews produced credentials from the state board of charities in Ohio, showing that the cause was worthy one. Imm mediately the local official con1- municated with the Ohio body seek ing information regarding the work
 The answer received stated that very little of the revenue derived from the sale of the magazines was given to the cause, and the board in that state is now endeavoring to have the charter of the company revoked. As the representatives promised not to do any soliciting until the approval of the Chamber of Commerce was re ceived it is doubtful if much headway was made in this city on the proposi- ton.

SALARY INCREASES
 UNDER i. A. QU|GLEY
Councilman Curtis Raps Mayor
 for His Inconsistency

Increase in salaries under the re- gime of Mayor George A. Quigley was criticised today in an interview by Councilman 0. r. Curtis candidate for the republican nomination for mayor. MT. Curtis said:
 When His Honor, the mayor, was elected as Alderman, one of his prom ises was to oppose all salary raises. At that time the total amount paid for salaries under control of the com mon council was under $5O,O00 per year. When he was elected mayor under pledge of economy the salary expenses were under $56OOO. The appropriation for 1916 is over $67, 900, an increase over four years ago of over $17 1000, or more than third, or more than $11,000, over two years ago, over one-fifth increase.
 During these four years the mayor is on record once as alderman in voting against one increase and a few months later, when the same was brought up again voting for it. He is. on record, once, as mayor on a tie, as voting deciding against one in- crease of s120 per year and five months later taking the floor to advo- cate the same increase for the same official, which was carried. The first vote possibly saved the city. The other only instance was this month when he decided on a tie against Superintendent Towers receiving an increase of s20o per annum, but ap- proved of S100. This is bagatelle compared with the s11,OOO to ST. ,0OO almost given away. The above is one of the reasons for the increase in taxes and also shows one promise broken.
 The records show that while for the past four years the population and property values, as shown by the grand list, have increased less than one-tWelfth, (gaining about equally) the taxes have increased over one- third, and the appropriations nearly one-half Since MT. Quigley has been mayor the population and grand
New Britain herald., 1916-03-24

list has kept an even pace, increasing d little over one-sixteenth, while taxes have gone up almost onc-siNth, and appr0 priations more than one-Quarter.
 "This shows we are going ahead of our means and it must also be re- membered that our large bonded debt is also increasing, much more than is for our advantag ge. It is about time to put on the brakes before we lose control of the situation.
 The profuse promises of His Honor before election to hold the taxes down has not shown any tangi- ble results, and his slogan sh ould, to be consistent be to spend all you can raise, as rapidly as possible, and make room for more.
 Does the working man and the propOrtionately heaviest tax payer consider these conditions beneficial to him?

BABCOCK RISES TO
 DEFEND FIRE DEPT.
Praises Callmen and Urges Pre-
 paredDeSS in Service

E. c. Babcock, chairman of the board of public safety, feels that much of the criticism of the depart ment and the plans for bettering the department are without foundation. Although he is new to public service, MT. Babcock has taken great inter- est in the police and fire departments and has made a study of fire depart ment preparedness. Iii an interview, in which he speaks of the necessity of preparedness and the unjust criticism of callmen of the department, MT. Babcock has the following to say:
 We should be proud of the record of our police and fire departments and instead of adverse criticism they should receive the praise due their good work in the pest, and the call men especially of our fire departme ent should be commented, not blamed. They have done all they should do,

and that we'll, under present condl- tions. The system is to blame-not the men. We are living in a motor age and in order to reach a stage of high efficiency it will be absolutely necessary to motorize our fire depart ment; preparedness is as necessary in city affairs as in stlte- or national.
 Would Retain some CaIlmen.
 Il am deeply interested in the po- lice and fire departments and with the other members of the board of public safety have formulated several plans. one of which it is to be hoped, will place the Ire and police depart ments in the high plane of efficiency necessary, and none of these plans will wholly do away with the callmen of the fire department. The city will need their services in the proposed motorizatiOn.
 We need the motors first, we need the men and we TGed the approval and help of the citizens of the city iu our earnest efforts to safeguard the city.

LEARNING TO SEE.
Sight Sense Slow Returning to
McLOuth Boy.
Depends on Touch; Years to
Learn to Read.

McLouth, Kan, Feb. William
Hawkins, the 21-year-old boy who re-
gained his sight on Christmas day, is
learning slowly to observe the world
in a new way. His sense of sight,
though perfect according to the doc
tor, is feeble competitor against his
sense of touch. Hawkins often is baf-
fled by the sight of things, which, if ne
closes his eyes and touches he knows
readily.
From his home at McLouth to the
Bell Memorial hospital at Rosedale he
has made many trips for treatment by
the occulist who gave him his sight.
In the office of the occulist one day
last week a man picked up a book and
held it before Hawkins.
What is this?" he said.
How should l know" Hawkins re-
piled.
What does it look like?'

who were with him pointed out the

He can distinguish persons in their
general form-men from WOmen-but
he must still depend upon his ear to
distinguish one person from another.

learn to read, the doctors say.

KANSAS CORN YIELD SMALL.
Agricultural College Gives Reasons
Why crop Averages 20 Bushels.

Manhattan, Kan, Feb. THE
average acre yield of corn in Kansas
is less than 20 bushels. The growing
of corn under conditions to which it is
not adapted is the principal reason, ac-
cording to c. c. Cunningham. assistant
professor of agronomy in the Agricul-
tural college, who has obtained data
from every part of the state.
Other reasons why the corn yield is
low are the decrease in soil fertility
and the failure to rotate crops prop
srly.
Mr. Cunningham has presented his
conclusions in a bulletin, Growing
Corn in Kansas" intended for the
practical farmer and obtainable from
the experiment station by any resi-
dent of Kansas. It includes a map of
Kansas showing the state divided into
areas based on the adaptability of
corn and the grain sorghums re-
spectively to each area. Another map
shows the state divided into nine corn
growing regions Mr.. Cunningham
points out the varieties suitable for
each section.
Practically all phases of growing
corn under Kansas conditions are
treated, including rotations, varieties,
methods of planting, preparation of
the seed. cultivation, harvesting and
storing, selection and care of seed, and
insects injurious to corn
