HOW TO KEEP UP
 MILK PRODUCTION
Farm Bureau Statement Says Green
 Matter Should Be Fed to Cows.

The burden of dairying is the feed bills, the everlasting buying of grains for the proper maintenance and pro- profit for the dairymen says the latest announcement from the Farm Bureau office. To eliminate this bugbear the farmer must raise better roughage and more grAin. then he must have the kind of cows that will return the feed given in milk and not put it upon her body. The dairyman must cun out all cows whose production will not pay for their keep. If an accurate account is kept of his expenses it will show that in nearly every case it is the feed bills and not those for labor that are the real burden. With rare exception the dairy farm should pro- duce all the roughage and the greater part of the concentrater the herd con- sumes thereby, cutting the monthly feed bills to the minimum.
 Assisting County Agent Whitman is willing at all times to assist the farmers in planning his work for an his herd, in field test to determine the. food nutrients of roughage or grain grown. In the report published this week the fifth round of COW testing it was possible to balance the ration in two herds reducing the cost 50 cents for each hundred pounds of grain fed without any reduction in the produc tiOn of milk.
 Green matter should be fed to the cows at this time to keep up the pro- duction of milk ad due to fberous con- dition of the pastures too much ener- gy is wasted in digesting the grasses.

COMMODORE PLANT
 GETS WATSON PROPERTY Former kidder Estate at Eastern
 Point Changes Hands.

Commodore Morton F. Plant has purchased the George H. Watson pro- perty at Eastern Point, known as Rocklawn. The place, which was for merly the Kidder estate, contains over six acres of land. a large residence and two small cottages. It has a beautiful lawn sloping to the river.
 MT. Watson has been spending his summers there for many years. being one of the oldest members of the summer colony. The fact that a ship building plant is to be installed near the property is believed to be one cf the reasons which induced MT. Watson to sell.
 The deeds were recorded at the of- flee of the town clerk in Groton Fri day.

 It will be mighty interesting this year Tor a variety of easons, among others because the license men nave been gaining trife in the last few years, as, in 1915, they had 87 of the l6S towns in the state, and in 1918 they controlled 91, while the change or dozen votes would have given them TOUT or hVe more.
