Backache Is Discouraging
But Not So Bad If You Know How Tc
 Reach the Cause.

Nothing more discouraging than a constant backache. Lame when you awaken. pains pierce you when you bend or lift. It's hard to work or to rest. Backache often indicates bad Kidneys. Norwich people recommend Doan's Kidney Pills. Read this case:
 James L. Austin, carpenter, 30 Penobscot Street, Norwich, says: 'Tt seems colds settle on my back and kidneys, and at these times a dull pain settles across my back. If bend over for any length of time it is just like having a knife thrust into my back to straighten up. The kidney action is irregular. Doans Kidney Pills, procured from Nicholson's Drug Store, have always cured these at- tacks. I have tried other medicines but have always found it necessary to use Doan's Kidney Pills to get cured"
 Price soc, at all dealers. Don't sim ply ask for Q kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills - the same that MT Austin had. Foster -Milburn Co.,, Props. Buffalo. N. y.

WHICH COW DID
YOU PICK OUT?
BluebeIi Was the Largest Milk Pro- ducer With $500 Pounds to Her Credit.

The demonstration conducted by the New London County Farm Bureau at the county fair to emphasize the value of keeping milk records upon individ- ual cows proved a great success. The demonstration consisted of three cows, Bluebell. a grade Jersey, GoIdie, a grade Ayrshire and Daisy, a dark col ored grade variously called Holstefn, Jersey, Baown-Swiss. etc, and a mo-
 tice to the effect that one of the cows
 during it's last lactation period pro-
 duced $500 pounds. one 1000 pounds,
 and one 5000 pounds and those inter
 ested were sked to pick them out. That
 it is absolutely impossible to tell by
 the locks of a COW what her produc- tion is. was proved in the. range of guesses made. Tabulation of the sta- tistics show that besides the many who placed the cows but failed to reg ister their placing, ninety-two people left their names and addresses and are being notified of the results of the contest.
 The proper placing of the cows is as l follows:
 Bluebell $500 pounds. Goldie 1000 | pounds, and Daisy 5000 pounds. Of a total of ninety-two eleven placed all three cows correctly and seven more decided that Bluebel1 was the best COW but misplaced Daisy and Go1die, making a total of IS picking Blue bell correctly as the best COW. Twen- ty-six placed Goldie first, Bluebell sec-

ond and Datsv third. while sixteen

ond and Daisy third, while sixteen others placed Goldie first, Daisy sec ond and Bluebeu third, making a to- tai of 42 placing Goldfe first, while as a matter of fact Goldie did not give within 1,500 pounds as much milk as Bluebell. Eighteen placed Daisy first Goldie second and BluebeIl third. and fourteen placed Daisy first, Bluebeu and Goldie third, making a total of thirty-two placing Daisy, as the best ly two cows of Daisy's standard to produce as much milk as Bluebell. Fuhther study of statistics show that while eighteen agreed that Bluebell was the best COW, thirty-four agreed that she was the poorest, and while thirty-two decided that Daisy was the best COW, thirty-se placed her cor rectly as the poorest COW, and while forty-two agreed that Goldie was the best COW, twenty-one or half that number placed her as the poorest COW, and the summary shows that eighteen placed Bluebell first correctly, thirty nine placed Goldie second correctly, and thirty seven placed Daisy third correctly.
 In studying these figures, there seems to be but little doubt that even the best of COW judges can not tell abso- lutely by the looks of a COW what her production is. These three cows all came from the Uncas farm, owned by N E. Whiting of Lefhngwell, who has been weighing the milk from his COWS for a number of years. These weights are recorded on milk record blanks furnished by the Connecticut Agricul- tural college, who each month total last months figures and forward a new sheet for the coming month. County Agent F. c. Warner would be glad to get in touch with any farmer inter ested in improving his dairy stock and will furnish free of charge milk rec ord sheets to any who apply for the same. Six farmers, after having tried to place the three cows immediately decided that they had better begin weighing milk from their cows and left request to have milk sheeI sent them. Firty-two farmers also took advantage of the opportunity to have their milk tested for butter fat free of charge.

STATE POLICE RAID
 NAVY YARD HOUSE
Discovered Two Kitchen Bar Rooms
 Near Railroad Station.

Acting under orders of Prosecuting Attorney Warren B. Burrows of the Groton town court, State Policemen Rudd and Bridgeman Friday night descended upon two kitchen bar rooms near the Navy Yard station and ob tained sufficient evidence to warrant Judge Frederick P. Latimer assessing fines of $50 and costs in both cases in the Groton police court Saturday.
 Cino Cini and Columbo Vontempo were the defendants. They were charged with selling intoxicating li- quors. The former was fined $50 and s2e.94 costs and the latter $5G and $23.54 costs.
 State police officers have been working in the vicinity of the Navy Yard station for several days in both cases and Friday after obtaining evt- dence that illegal sales of liquor had been made, applied for warrants which were served Friday evening.

KETTLES CASE GOES OVER ONE WEEK
Continuance is Granted in Case of
 Alleged White Shaver.

A further continuance was grant ed by Judge Colt in the New London police court Saturday at the sugges- tion of Acting Prosecuting Attorney Cronin in the case of Edward Kettle, alleged white slayer, until next Sat urday, September 16
 Kettles case. the police allege is closely related to that of Mary Rose Di Noto of New London, who is now awaiting trial in the superior crir2ir0 l court on the charge of harborinG a minor female for Inc purposes, of prostitution, and who has already CD : tered a plea of guilty 10 the charge of receiving the earnings of a prosti- tute Louis Bloom also figured in the same case and he too is awaiting trial in the superior court.
 The action of the court in granting a further continuance in the case of Kettle case as a surprise, for it was generally understood that May Rose Baker of this city and Claire Rivers wife of the accused. would ap- pear in court as witnesses against him.
 There is a possibility. however that Kettle may appear in the superior court during the present sitting in this city through the Issuance of a bench warrant from that court. Such action would make 1t unnecessary for him to stand arraign1nent in the To- cal court.
 If his case proceeds along through the regular channels and he appears in police court for erraignment next Saturday, and probable cause is found. the only alternative will be- to bind him over to the January term of the high court.
 The fact that the other white slave cases are to be tried during the pres ent term and that all three cases are closely related. adds strength to the f theory that a bench warrant may be issued in Kettles case.
