A Well Skin Never Chafes

Chatting is caused by the rubbing of
clothing against the skin; or even of
the skin against itself.
Nature has equipped the healthy
skin to provide against such condi-
tions in the form of various excre-
tons. Failure Of the skin too func-
ton properly results in inflamma-
tion from the constant rubbing, and

To relieve this condition local ex-
ternal measures usually give the most
satisfaction; and the most effective
remedy in powdered Boric Dust

PUT SOME FERTILIZER IN HILL
Potstoes Are Not Good Foraoers and
Must Have Some Available Plant
Food Close at Hand.

One essential to success In raising
potatoes Is to have some available
plant food In the hill (although not
touching the seed piece) so that the
new rootlets can begin feeding imme-
diately. This makes big difference
In many ways-in the start which the
young plant gets, In its ability to out
grow weeds and IN Its power to shade
the lground and thus prevent water
from evaporatins.
The reason why fertilizer must be
close,at hand Is, Of course. that the po-
tato is not good fornger. Dig down

formed and when the plant Is at the

MORE MONEY FOR TOMATOES


Good tomato crops are profitable.
Average crops pay the grower little
more than day wages. The grower
who Is successful uses methods that
Insure large yields and high quality.
In few sections. average yields do
not exceed two tons, yet In New Jer-
sey on farms delivering to single
cannery. there was a total OF more
than 5000 acres where the growers last
year averaged about seven tons per
acre. Twenty-Five per cent Of this area
yielded between 10 and IL tons TO the
acre.. A number Of middle Western
growers have averaged over 20 tons
to the acre. Large yield, quality and
big profits 30 hand In hand.
Humus the Life Of the soii.
Soils containing plenty OF organic
matter will start tomato plants moro
quickly. cultivate more easily. and
carry the plant through q period Of
drought moro certainly than will those
lacking humus. Field observation es-
tablishes the fact that many tomato
growers have allowed the organic mat
ter Of the soil to become exhausted.
and many low yields can be laid to
this cause. Most Eastern tomato grow
ers can now get little or no manure.
Many Western growers are having the
same trouble. Many depend largely
upon commercial fertilizers.
An abundant supply Of suitable avail
able plant food Is essential to most
profitable yields. without sufficient food

O-TELEGRAPHY CONTROL.

No doubt the cry of "state social ism will be raised by those opposed to governmental ownership on read ing the news that the United States has taken over permanently all radio telegraph stations III this country used for commercial purposes,
 The difference between the opera tion of wireless stations by the gov ernment and the operation of rail- roads by the government IS the differ enca b 2tween military precautions and a business venture in the inter ests of the public. Radio telegraphy has passed the stage of experiment ton and Is accepted as one of the most remarkable achievements of mankind from @ military standpoint. America has had a taste of foreign having been found necessary to seize a number of stations along the At lantic coast in which German capital predominated. To permit a return
 
 madness and an invitation to coun- tries which might in the future feel hostile to the United States to set up such depots on our shores Decision by the Navy Department to assume exclusive control of all comm ercial radio plants is common sense action. It may also be taken as an indication that we do not expect to return to the old haphazard manner of doing things and will prevent, as far as possible, the activity of foreign agents within our borders. As a pure 1 ly military measure the action should l receive the approval and applause of l all who nave Aruerica's good fortune l at heart.

\ WELCOME TO MIR. TAET.

Special interest attaches to the wis it of former President Taft to New Britain on December 16 as this city reSolut~iy rallied to Mr. Taft on No- vemher !. 1912. when he was a candidate for reelection to the presi- G&ncN. It was in that year the Dem oCr~tS recovered possession of the country with Woodrow Wilson as their Moses but it will remain a source Of satisfaction to admirers of Mi. Taft that New Britain returned majority of 16o in his favor.
 William Howard Taft has always enjoyed the affections and esteem Of folks in this vicinity. Even those who disa gree with the political dogma of his party fonoly regard him Tor his rugged honesty and his open frankncss and many would be pleased if President Wilson appointed him one of the official representatives or the United States at the peace con- gress in Europe. AIr. Taft's name was connected with such mission previ- ouS to the November ! elections but it is believed he forfeited whatever chance of appointment he might have had by issuing, with eX-President Roosevelt, an appeal to the voters urging them nCt to be guided by the appeal of President Wilson for a democratic majority in Congress.
 No stone should be left unturneG by the public to extend to MT. Taft a welcome commensurate with his prominence and his courtesy in com ing here. It will be his first visit to New Britain. It should not be his last.

National Trade-M Mark for Swi
 Exports.


Commercial Attache Pierce C. Will
 Hams, Paris, France, Oct. 15.)
 To forestall competition. after the war, of foreign-made goods-fraudu lently described as of Swiss origin Swiss exporters have recently adopted a national trademark. This trade name is "sPES," a word coined by taking initial letters of ''Syndicat pour PExportation Suisse" the name of the voluntary cooperative associa- ton to which the trade name belongs.
 The syndicate grants the use of the name SPIES only for "products of the Swiss soil. or of the Swiss mining in- dustry, or for merchandise having undergone in Switzerland a manufac- turing process, such as to change their character"
 To obtain the right to use the name SPIES on his goods, the manufacturer or the exporter must become a mcm- ber of the Syndicat pour IEXporta- tion Suisse. To become a member Of the Syndicat the person desiring the protection of the trade name SPIES must prove the genuine Swiss character of his product. It IS not enough TOT the goods to have been produced or to have undergone manufacture on Swiss soil. In addition, the manufacturer or the producer, if an individual must have been of Swiss nationality before July 1, 1914 or to have been nation alized for at least 10 years. In the case of stock companies, the president and two-thirds Of the board of direc- tors must be of Swiss origin or of Swiss citizenship, and at least two- thirds of the capital stock must be Swiss
 All of these facts must be set forth on the application for membership in tho Syndicat and the claims of the applicant are carefully investigated by the directors of the Syndicat before membership is granted.
 Membership in the Syndicat does not. ipso factO, confer upon the mem- Der the right to use the mark SPIES. If he desires to make use of it he must make a special application and sign a special enga cement. The use of the mark SPIES is then only authorized for such articles as have been agreed uD- on between the member and The Syn dicat. The annual fee for the right 10 use the mark SPIES is based upon the total exportation of the given pro- duet during the preceding year. The uSn of tho national mark SPIES does not prohibit the member from using bis own private trademark. if he has one.
 The use of the mark SPIES on pro- ducts of notable inferior quality, the sale of which would tend to injure the

The predatory noises of the night Are hushed before the slowly deep-
 cning flush That mounts the east. The terri fled, quick rush Of hunted things, pursued by savage might, Is stilled, The stealthy owl has lost it's sight And from the green depths of the
 mountain brush Thrills the elated song of the shy
 thrush That choruses it's welcome to the So are they stined, the hoarsely bark
 ing guns That belched their hatred on a
 peaceful folk, To make of man helplesS mar
 ried pawn. Their blood cry was suppressed by

reputation, of the mark SPIES, is pro- hibited
 Any abuse of the mark or it's use by unauthorized persons is supervised by the committee of the Syndicat, which is empowered to take appro- priate steps to punish such acts.
 Need of Protecting Swiss Goods.
 The need for protecting genuine Swiss products, competing with goods falsely described as of Swiss origin, was clearly recognized by Swiss ex- porterS long before the war. Switzer- land has suffered particularly from the fact that names of localities no longer guarantee that articles bearing the name were produced there. To illus trate, it is welI-known fact that eau de Cologne no longer comes exclusive ly from the Rhine city; that all Rus Moscow; that Prussian blue does not come solely from Berlin, and so on
 In the case of Swiss products the names of Geneva for watches, of Basel for silk ribbons, and of St Gall for embroideIies are frequently found upon articles manufac ctured elsewhere The names "Gruyere" and "Emmen- thal' are now used to designate cheese made in many different part of the world
 The importance to Switzerland of being able to guarantee the genuine ness of goods claimed to be of Swiss origin has been even more imperiously forced upon. Switzerland during the war
