Larvae Of Heel Fly Annoy Stock:
Should Be Removed

DR.. G.:H. Glover, State Agr'l. college.
Several letters have been received
lately respecting "lrmps" on the backs
Of cattle. One party made the impor-
tant discovery (7) that worms had
eaten big holes thru the backs Of his
cattle and were found at the bottom
eating their way"
Cattle can do very nicely without these
parasites. but the parasites cannot live
without their host. These parasites are
the larvae Of the heel fly. This fly 10
about one-half an inch long and looks
something like . small black bee. The
flies poster cattle during the summer
months and deposit their eggs on the
hair sround the heels and hind legA
The flea ere unable to bite but castle
are instinetivsly afraid Of them and win
run with their tails high in the air, to
the nearest water hole, when they -
proach. The eggs are taken into the
stomach BY cattle licking themsslvss,
and there they hatch and the tiny larvae
migrate thru the body to their favorite'
habitat BY spring or early summer
the grub IL full grown and makes ito
escape thru an opening which it has
made and thru which it breathes and
discharge it, excrement. Falling to
the ground, It burrows for time in the
ground. IL changed to the pupal stage,
and from this the mature fly emerges
in about one month. Some claim that
the eggs matches on the hair and the
larvse makes its way directly thru The
skin.
Grubs cause cattle to fall of little
in flesh and greatly depreciate the value
of the hide. 1t is well to press out the
grubs. using knife when necessary 70
enlarge the opening. A quicker way to
destroy them is to apply few drops Of
kerosene thru the opening with an oil
can. To keep flies away from the cat
tie. use pine tar or one Of the coal tar.

THANKS VOLUNTEERS
 OF AUTOMOBILES FOR USE OF WAR VETERANS

Albert E. Lavery, in speaking for the committee who had charge of procuring automobiles for the Grand Army yesterday, desires to express the appreciation of the veterans, as well as of the committee, of the very fine spirit shown by automobile own CTS in responding to the request for cars. There were many owners on hand whose cars were not needed which in itself was very fine tr1- bute to the Grand Army.
 The handling of the cars was ar ranged through Superintendent Red- gate and was under the active direc- tion of Captain Wheeler of the traf- fife squad. The cars were all parked at the public parking place at Broad and John streets and the veterans marched from the hall under police protection to where the cars were parked. The visitors were placed in cars under the direction of Sergeant Flanagan and. the parade moved off easily without the slightest hitch. :.
 The demonstration at the park of . the rapid fire guns was a complete revelation to the Grand Army itself. This was arranged by Captain Wheel CT as part of the entertainment and was very much appreciated. It prov ed one of the interesting incidents of the entire convention.
 The committee wishes publicly to express to Superintendent Redgate it's appreciation of the services of the police department, and especially to Captain Wheeler, who arranged traf- fic regulations and the itinerary for the trip. On the whole it was a very fine tribute of an official department of the city to the Grand Army and their guests.

BRIDGEPORT HEALTH DEPT. UNABLE TO PUNISH THOSE
 WHO ADULTERATE SAUSAGE
Warning of State Food Commissioner That Park City Is Consuming Impure Meats Discloses Fact That No s,Adeauate Means of Detection Is Available Here

of the Dairy & Food commission reads:
 "A rather extensive recent survey of the sale of Hamburg steak and pork sausage has disclosed numerous transgressions. Much Hamburg steak was found containing added sulphites, used primarily to admit the use of inferior (partly decompos- ed) meat, and secondarily as a pre- servative. It is, therefore, desirable to call attention to the following ruling:
 The use of sulphur dioxid in any form in any meat food product or milk will be considered as an adul- teration. No objection will be made to other foods which contain, the or dinary quantities of sulphur dioxid, if the fact that such foods have been so prepared is plainly stated upon the label of each package. But an abnormal quantity of sulphur dioxid placed in foods for the purpose of marketing an excessive moisture con- tent will be regarded as adulteration.'
 "Considerable pork sausage was found containing cereal without the use of same having been declared, and less frequently, instances in which the amount was in excess of two per cent. Attention is, there fore, directed to the following United States Bureau of Animal Industry ruling regarding the use of cereal in sausage:
 Sausage shall not contain cereal in excess of two per cent. When cereal not in excess of two per cent. is added to sausage, the product shall be marked with the phrase cereal added'"

HOME GARDENS ARE URGED FOR
 ALL EMPL.0YES
Manufacturers Asked t; Aid In. Increasing State
 Food Supply. :.
Connecticut manufacturers are urg

Connecticut manufacturers are urg- ed in a letter being set out by the Connecticut Committee of Food Sup ply to take up without delay some home garden plan for their enploves' The committee has sent Wltn these letters copies of a model home safoeA scheme which it recommends to the manufacturers. The suggestion is made that conveniently located va cant land be ploughed and that IL De offered to employees for their use un- der expert supervision and that charge be made for the use or each plot to cover the cost of preparing the land and buying fertilizer.
 The letter sent out to the manuIac- turers is as follows:
 Gentlemen-As you are doubtless aware, a great deal is being said ana printed all over the state concerning possible methods of increasing the food supply. Many different agen- cies are more or less actively engaged in pushing the various so-called "home garden schemes.
 This committee is desirous of work ing with all such organization and is equally anxious not to interfere in
  Therefore, if the line of work we would suggest for your consideration is already being taken care of as far as your employees are concerned, we would only ask you to notify us on the enclosed card
 A great many manufacturing con cerns in this state own land which is suitable for gardening or agricul- tural purposes, but which is at pres ent not being made use of. Our suggestion is that such land be plowed, fertilized and made ready for planting as far as this can be done, by the use of horsedrawn tools; that it then be offered to your employees for their use, but such use to be un- der the supervision of a man who understands gardening and general crop production.
 A charge should be made for each plot to cover the cost of preparation of the landlord and buying fertilizer. A contribution of the manufacturer would pay the cost of the employ ment of supervisor. It would seem that a man fitted for this work could be found among almost any factory force.
 The actual work would of course be done outside the. working hours and on Sundays.
 The land could be used either for garden purpose plots, or to grow such crops as potatoes, beans and other non- -perishable products. It would seem that in this way the manufac- turing concern could make living conditions more easy for it's employees and at the same time encourage the spirit of thrift and cooperation among them.
 This committee will be found ready at all times to assist in any way. We can furnish men on short notice to make estimates of cost of preparing land, to examine such land as to it's fitness for the crop to be produced, and, should such a plan be put into operation, we can also furnish men to give advice to supervisors, when ever necessary.

SPAIN FINDS HER ROLE AS FOREMOST NEUTRAL NATION IS
 NOT STRICTLY A HAPPY ONE
Representatives of Other Governments Are Ranged in Hostile Camps in Spanish Capital And the Dons
 Find Their Position at Time Most Embarrassing.

This break of relations kept the am- bassadors apart as much as the &C., tual existence of war. The need for separate audiences was made evident on the night word was received here recently that the United States had broken relations with Germany and given Count Bernstorff his passports. On that night the American and the German ambassadors here had ap- pointment at the same hour and place with, the President of the Council. There was a hurried encouragement of hours when word came of the breach between America and Ger many.
 After that the new rules for separ- ate days and hours for the three elements were scrupu1ously observed. But with all the precaution Spain is finding that the important role of chief neutral, while having its ad- vantages. is attended also with many difficulties.

Brown, head xof the local health department, that ,tlre city is practically powerless to protect it's residents against sucn practice upon the part of unScrupu- lous dealers.
 Until the city's welfare building IS completed" Dr: Brown said, we have absolutely no quick method Of deter mining what adulterants are used In foods. Though our suspicious may oe troused eby the action of more active poisoIls upon the human system we now have to depend upon the state health .laboratories, where an exam ination< usually requires about nine days."
 .sIn tf1A matter of such insidious foes to the physical being as sulphites where the symptoms only follow after long continued use of the ahulterant and which. show no peculiar signs in the product offered for sale, we are almost at a~loss to prevent such prac- tices, much as regret to say it.
 'sThe only warning that I can give the public that may be of aid to them is to stay away from all restaurants which do not have the appearance of buying the best supplies, and to stu diously avoid the purchase of meats from irresponsible dealers"

Germans Tells Poland
 That Autonomy Doesn't
 Mean Full Independence


 Amsterdam, April 19.-The Rhein- ische Westfalische Zeitung complains that the Poles seem to be confusi ne the word autonomy with the word in- dependence and are wrongfully claiming that independence was promised to them last November. The paper points out that Germany only held out the prospect of an autono- nous kingdom in the closest union with the Central powers. It contin- ues:
 This union cannot consists in all l1ance dissolvable by the Poles them selves, We must possess military and political guarantees in Poland and must continue to keep the new king. dom in our hands after the war. We did not free the Poles for their own sake, but for ours."
