Health Survey by Trained Nurse

A trained nurse will begin making a health survey of the city on Monday next, especially in matters concerning infant mortality in Putnam.
 This experienced investigator is sent out under the supervision of the health department Of the Delineator magazine and there is no cost to the city except for the nurses board, for which the Putnam Chamber of Commerce has made an appropriation.
 This work Is being done all over the country as a magazine feature and Putnam Is fortunate in being one oi first cities to have the plan tried out. Il is expected that much valuable in- formation will be furnished after the work is completed oy the nurse and committee of local people assisting her.

GARDEN PLANS
Offers Of Land Peing Made
Garden Supervisor Busy

About ten acres of land has been Of. fefed for other peoples use as home gar1ens. The largest single tract Is to be furnished by the Nightingale. Morse Mills, which has already done s great deal for this movement by blow ing up land for the use of it's own em. ployees. Much more land, however, will be needed, and headquarters at the Chamber Of Commerce rooms is anxious for prompt returns Of such land.
 No piece Is too small to come within the scope of this plan, as the younger children from the schools will usually take only a plot l0xl0 feet. The plots for adults will be 40x60, or it's equiva' lent, according to shape; excepting unless reason Is shown why larger tracts should be allotted. The securing and aiIotting Of these properties, arranging for fertilizer, seeds, preparation of the land, and later for supply Of glass jars for csn ming, are among the matters in which Garden Supervisor Traurig Is busily engaged.
 Mrs. R. r. Danielson of Putnam Heights has offered five acres of heavy land to the community for gardens. have sent in applications for this use of land.
 Mf. Morse Of Chandler X Morse has offered to look into the matter of getting q tractor to be used for demon stfation purposes on the lots that will be plowed. which will be great help to the town.
 All persons who have land will do a great deal of good by sending in cards or sending their names and location of land, so when this tractor arrives there will be no delay.
 Supervisor Traurig visited the Israel Putnam, Smith Street and St. Mary's schools Thursday morning and dis tributed about 200 membe rship cards, and this will be about the number Of children who will have gardens.
 MT. Handy, principal of the high school, will take charge Of the high school boys and girls, and they will do great work in this field.
 There will be \ professor here from Storrs Agricultural Station next week to help the supervisor in organizing these clubs, and also to organize the heads of the families in their work.

Putnam patriot., 1917-04-27

Citizens of Connecticut have reason to feel proud Of their governor and their state. We have led the country in preparedness progress. First the plan of the governor Io take census of all of the available resources of the state in men and material was carried out 10 the letter, in short order, by volunteers. Now comes a War Coun. Gil appointed by the governor, another important step in msrshalling the re sources Of the state for war. The coun- ell consists of eleven members repre- :. sentative of the principal activities of Connecticut and its duty will be 10 conduct, under the governors direc- tiou, the prosecution of WAT so far as it concerns this state. IL will be known as the Connecticut Council of Defense. Come what may Connecticut will be found ready.

From the Editors Desk

While 1t seems to be admitted that Putnam was promised . trolley loop at the time the street railway was Riv- en . franchise in this city It does not seem thst it is to be realized at once, although a strenuous effort .has been made to have the compony begin oper- stions.
 The letter sent to the mayor stating that the loop would cost the ,city $75, ,00o in the matter of making bridg- es adequately strong to care for the traffic was siluded to AS ''stsll" by Alderman Padgett. From the facts |. does look ss If the company is side stepping the Issue.
 Waen MT. Perkins, president,of the Shore Line Electric Company came to Putnam in March it was agreed that he should have the company's engin- eers make survey and submit their plans and estimate of cost to the coun- ciI. Instead of this being done state ment of what the company considers the city would have to pay K sent, ap- psrently To put 1t up to the city as an expensive proposition for the lcity it. self.
 No one connected with the official body of the city, present or past, hns any knowledge that there K, or ever was, any agreement by the city to pay anything towards securing such loop. The company was anxious to get its line through Putnam and, in order to do so and to satisfy certain members of the council at that time, agreed to build line through the north end of the city. This has been admitted, it is stated on good authori- ty, by past and present officials of the road. It has never been done and that is what those who want this loop put In complain of and complain of justly.
 The statement by the company that extra expense would be entailed if the loop is constructed at this ltime on ac. count of the high cost Of labor and ma terials appe ais to every thinking man. IT itHty tboh tbCti upoi proposition alone they would stand in better light with officials and citi. zens. It does look, in bringing up m apparently mythical promise of the city to strengthen and care for bridges and then estimating 1t would cost nearly hundred thousand dollars, instead of standing firmly on the pro- position that seems to be back of the whole matter--that 1t is too expensive an undertaking at present, the com pa- ny Is trying to put the burden on the city and to make IL appear that be cause Of the lnrge outlay the city would be required to make-if such promise as the company claims had ever been made-lhe city Is the one that Is unwilling to forward and not the company.

1t is pleasant 10 note something that is dropping insprice. Lobsters are re- ported as only 20 cents per pound. Perhaps there Is to be food revolu- lion and the wealthy will from some near future date on eat pork and beans while the lunch rooms will be serving lobster in varied styles to thelr cusIo' mers. It will be lobster rooms and bean palaces .instead of beaneries and lobster palaces.
