worth of food stuff produced and con-
served or an average production OF
about $40 each These figures indi-
cate that well over 100000 worth of
food stuffs were produced and con-
served by the patriotic boys and girls
of Connecticut, who attempted to do
their part in lighting by feeding"
Fairfield and New Haven counties had
the largest club enrolment as they
rightfully should, inasmuch as over
one-half of the boys and girls in the
state are in these two counties. While
the largest enrolment was in the
garden club, the receipts per member
were smallest In this activity. This is
accounted for by the large number of
small gardens which were organized
in the cities where extensive planting
space was not available.
The best average profits were made
by corn club members, who made an
average of $3.50 per acre. This &C
dvity carried the smallest enrolment
Of any club. The good work done by
a potato club at Ridgeheld is typical
VI CLUBS Tie
staba- Seventeen boys enrolled in the
Ridgefeld potato club, each boy took
the regular working unit of one
eighth acre. Twelve of the boys grew
their potatoes in a community plot,
the other five raising theirs at home,
All IT of these boys carried their
work through to completion and OBJ
tanned an average yield of 80 bushels
on a plot of one-eigfth of an acre, OF
at the rate OF $40 bushels per acre
The average value per plot was $44
the average cost $11.So, leaving an
average profit Of $500 per plot These
boys obtained better average yields
than did either of their local leaders
The success of this club was large
ly due to the assistance given by two
volunteer local leaders, who by the
way, were busy farmers. In spite Of
the somewhat unfaHorable season, the
individual achievements of boys ant
girls quite equal the achievements o.
| any previous year.

sumer's prices is not sufficient to COW

The Muncher Neueste Nachrichten
(Sept. 26) states that the delivery of
eggs in the country leaves much to
be desired.
THE egg supply office has based its
calculations hitherto on being able to
supply the current demands from
fresh-egg deliveries until at least the
middle of October. These anticipa-
tons have not been realized. Accord
ing to a circular letter addressed by
the office to the district offices, al
ready in the first week of September
the supply did not cover the demand.
1t can not be supposed that the actual
returns are not sufficient to allow a
delivery of the very small fixed quota.
The district offices are requested
tn point out to poultry keepers the
present necessity for fresh eggs felt
by townfolk i'll order to make their
winter stocks hold out. If the supply
is not covered for the next few weeks,
it will be impossible to avoid stop

London, Jan. 25-Austria has de-
cided to continue peace negotiations
with Russia on the basis of no an
nexation and no indemnity, accord
ing to a Vienna dispatch to the Elk
change Telegraph Co., quoting. from
Count Czernin's address before the
reichrath.

quoted as having said, land peace can

same standpoint, as she evidently in
tends to do.''

More leadership has been available
during the past year than in any pre-
vious year. During the summer
months, 35 persons on salary were
giving part or full time to club lead
ership while the number of volunteer
leaders numbered about zoo.
During the coming season the work
OF the boys and girls is to be decided
ly enlarged. The general interest in
club work has developed along with
the greater interest in production and
conservation. Connecticut boys and
girls having demonstrated that, under
proper leadership, they are an eco
nomic factor that cannot be well over
looked and they are willing and anx-
GUS to do their part. The state au-
thorities are tmaking plans to organ
lie them and put them into the field
as an army to fight the food battle.
Join the Food Army and add to
the food supply is to be the slogan
for next year.

thorities concerned.


The municipal council of Karlsruhe
has, in consequence, addressed me-
mortal to the ministry of the interior
in the name of numerous towns in
Baden, making practical proposals for
a fundamental alteration of the milk
supply.
The towns attribute the insufficient
delivery of milk from the country to
the defective observance of the regu-
lations, and in consequence ask that
the ministry of the interior should
proceed relentlessly to use all meas
ures of compulsion at its disposal. The
delivery of milk for towns should be
constituted a public duty for the com
munes, and the amount should be fix
ed according to the capacity of each
commune. They further propose bon
uses for COW keepers who deliver
more milk than they are in duty
bound. The towns should be allowed
to fix the sale prices of milk. The
present conditions, which compel the
towns in increasing measure to con-
tribute to the cost Of the milk sup
ply from public funds. as the differ

laid in their own winter stocks con-
tinue to do their duty.
THE advisability of raising the pro-
ducer's price has been discussed, but
the present price was considered suf-
ficient.
The district offices are requested
to use their influence with the buyers
so as to induce them to redouble their
efforts. The egg-supply office is will

MAXIMUM PRICES
FOR MANUFACTURED GOODS
IN AUSTRIA-HUNGAR

The Welthande1 of August 81 gives
the following on the authority Of the
Deutsche Orient orrespondenZ:
''In Austria-Hungary an experiment
is on the point of being made which
will meet with approval from large
circles in Germany as well. 1t is a
matter of fixing maximum prices for
the most important manufactured
goods in order to set certain bounds
to the exploitation of war conditions
by industry. The movement originates
ir agricultural circles, as is well
known maximum prices have been
fixed. Agricu1turists, however, are of
opinion that any such Limitation OF
the cash values of their produce is
Only justified when they are also pro-
tected against excessive advances in
price of all those things which the
agriculturist needs for his work. Man
ufacturers, the paper remarks, do not
take an altogether antagonistic atti-
tCde to this standpoint"
