COVER CROPS FOR ORCHARDS.
Urged By Prof. F. C. Sears of Mass
 schusetts Agricultural College.

In response to the general demand for information regarding cover crops for. orchards Prof F. C. Sears of the Massachusetts agricultural college has prepared some condensed instructions, enbodying the best information which is now at hand as the result of ex- tensive experimentation and re- search.
 The time is rapidly approaching
 when every orchardist should have his plans made for the cover crop and be ready to carry them out. Any seed which is to be bought should be secured at once. as some kinds are scarce. It is also high in price and Prof. Sears is urging the. use of cover crops which are cheap in price and which serve the purposes just as well. The most radical of his sug- sesuons is to use common weeds for cover crops. The functions of GOV CT crop which he regards as of most importance are roughly and in the order of their importance, preventing washing of the soil. adding humus to the soil, checking the growth of the
 trees and adding nitrogen 10 the soil The cover crop does some other things
 but these are most important. A good crop of weeds will do all these
 things but the last, according to Prof. Sears
 Tt will not do them quite as well
 as some of the best cover crops" said Prof. Sears. But neither does potato flour make the best of white bread. Yet we are using potato flour this year and I believe we ought to use weeds. The only orchard that I should worry about this year on the cover crop question is the orchard which will not grow good crop of weeds. On such an orchard it will l be necessary to SOW some other crop and probably the choice would be be-
 tween dwarf rape soWed at the rate l of two pounds to the acre. buckwheat | at one bushel to the acre. or barley at IA bushels per acre. The great argument in favor of rape is its cheap
 ness. but it is good in other respects. l It does not add so much humus as 1 either of the others, but it is fair in ] this respect.
 Whether we use weeds, or one of
 the three crops just mentioned. l think one should consider the oues- l tion of sowing a little clover to help 1 out on other functions and to add nj trogen. In my own orchards, I am planning to use crimson clover at the 1 rate of four or five pounds per acre !! on any blocks that I think need nj 1 trosen and yet are in good enough condition to bring along a reasonably good crop of clover. This may be considered a nice distinction to make but l think it can be made On the
 one hand, clover will not grow or very poor soil and, OH the other hand really good soil may not need It. Ant if I can end the season with req sonably good stand of clover, and z good crop of pisWeed, I shall be nor,
 than satisfied"

LOOKING FOR A MAN
 SUSPECTED OF MURDER.
State Police Working on Shooting
 Which Occurred in Morris.

Litchfield, Conn. July 16.-State police tonight are seeking for man suspected of having fatally wounded George Johnson. a 50 year old bach elor, in Morris on Monday night. The shooting took place on the premises Of Robert Wellman about 10 o'clock and Johnson died soon after making his way to the Wellnan house.
 Present in the house immediately before the shooting, besides the two men, was Mrs. Lena Williams. whose husband, Henry Williams, lives in Woodbury. According to Coroner Herman, Mrs. Williams says she saw 2 man lurking near the Wellman barn and so notified Johnson. Wellman at the time having laid down Johnson. she ayers. went to Investigate and was fired upon, a shotgun being used. After Johnson got to the house again neither she nor Wellman dared to leave until this morning, when the coroner was notified.
 Johnson lived alose in a house on the. shore of Bantam lake Mrs. Will Hams told the coroner that she was spending the night at the Wellman home. Sheriff Turkington, who is as- sisting the state police, has been un- able to find the gun used in the shoot 1 ing. The officials have not made public the identity of the man sought or their theory of the motive of the l crime.

boys, they are coming over." in the small hours of the night
 We get plenty to eat in the trenches three meals day. We get nice white bread. We get pancakes for breakfast and sometimes doughnuts for dinner and mashed potatoes and lots of beef. The water is all dried up iii the trenches. Our trenches have been blown to pieces. so we have no real trenches now, The gun l am manning is French make, shoots IS shots rapid fire; each man carries six to ten clips. The clips are a half circle. Then three have Colts .45 Cats, and we all have 30 by 90 for our Sprinsfields. Each one has 100 rounds. Some have trench knives. They are like a three -cOrnered file with a handle like a sword. We are armed to kill with hand grenades
 When they shell us we have plenty
 use for our steel helmets, as the air is full of old discarded locomotives
 that they throw over at us, and I bet
 they don't stop to break them up. If you once hear those pieces of shrapnel sing through the air you won't forget it soon.
 We are looking for our relief We since February, and it is too much of a strain on our nerves. Harry is back from the hospital, but doesn't feel l strong yet. Harry stayed in the same town with Henry Pukallus; he is back of the lines.
 Take some pictures that would look

 see a city since I have been here | just go in and out of the trenches ] And when we 90 a little way back

SOLDIERS AND SAILORS What Eastern Connecticut Boys Are Doing In Various Branches of the Service.
Wounded Boy Writes to Norwich
 Friends.

In letter to Miss Alice Mcknight of this city. Corp. Gerald P. Cream writes of duty overseas and tells of his being wounded slightly.
 He writes as follows:
 June 15, 1918.
 I saw Fred Fleischauer today and he gave me your address, which l had been trying to think of and remember for a, long time.
 How is everybody and everything back in your dear old town? Here it is most interesting and most of the times too interesting. We have been here for quite a while now. and by this time we are quite used to the whizz bangs and tricks which Fritz always tries on us.
 Some of the folks back home have a poor conception of what we fellows are doing over here. The descriptions of the war in the trenches which too often appear in magazines and weekly periodicals are, in my opinion, rather exaggerated and give our people home room to think that we are up against things which are awful But though things aren't at all rosy. nevertheless they aren't horrible in the extreme. Just at present I am very busy every day in the hard task of sleeping and eating and lodging the tin cans and old rubbish Fritz throws over at us. hold today as the dearest memories of my life the events that transpired year ago today and this time in general We were then in Norwich and we always think of the days there, honest, we does.
 I was among those who were slight | ly wounded in a battle we had over here, and for that I have been eXtolled and, I guess, almost eulogiZed as one of those many brave and dauntless 1 heroes who have crossed the raging l seas to arrest the oncoming Hun. etc. I believe l was rather fortunate in l being wounded because I'll be able to spread the camoufiage when l get home. I am perfectly well again at l this writing and am still in hopes of pulling through this war without be- 1 ing erased off the map.
 l I love to remember and think of the dances and other good times we used f; to have in Norwich, and I can almost ! picture the ball games we used to have at the Academy, when we used tc brag about winnisg, and in the end lose out. Remember how we used tC practice outside the arrnory? Those were happy days, but there are none such over here. I don't know what il
 is to dance now. nor do we often have any good old times like we used to

CORN FOR DRYING.

Corn has proved very popular for drying. At Fremont 91 bushels were handled in the community dryer. It is wise to set the milk by boiling the corn for three minutes and then plunging it in cold water before cut ting and placing it in the drier. Dried corn has been found superior to canned corn.
 Usually no heat should be used in the drying process. It has been found in tests conducted in Nebraska that where no heat is used in connection with the drier the product has more natural taste. The only exception to the rule would be in the case of moist or humid weather, or rainy climate. Then the best plan is to heat the room in which the drier is located. Care should be exercised not to have the fire too close to the drier, since the strong draft might easily set the framework af1re.- If the temperature goes much above 115 or 120 degrees, the products discolor and the flavor is lost. It generally takes about twenty four hours to dry tray of vegetables or fruit-Farm and Preside.

NORWICH TOWN
Red Cross Workers at Congregational Chapel-EVening Address By Miss Case on Canning-Ths Cold Pack Method Endorsed.

A large number of enthusiastic workers for the Red Cross gathered Monday afternoon and evening at the First Congregational chapel In the evening shey listened to an interesting talk by Miss Case on the importance of canning fruits ana vegetables es- pecially for the coming eight months when growers cannot get food from heir gardens There are four reasons or canning more than usual; first, here will be shortage of supply from he factories as the government will lake 65 per cent of their output for the soldiers; of the remaining 3A per cent we should leave as much as pos slble for those unable to do their own canning, a second reason is the re- lief afforded transportation if each locality takes care of it's own canning: third vegetables and fruit will help out the shortage of wheat; some vege- tables are substitutes for meat A fourth reason is the saving from the gardens of what would otherwise be wasted.
 The states share is 5000 900 quarts; New London county, 402 000 and the women of Norwich. 2 9,000 quarts. Brown sugar may be used in preserving acid fruits and for pickling; white crystal karo corn sirup diluted half with boil ing water may be used in cold pack canning. Cold pack canning is easiest 10 teach and is a successful method. One dozen can rubbers should meas ure one inch in thickness, don't get hem too thick. was her advice given.
 Untrue statements against the cold pack method which one may hear are: hat t is unsuccessful; that disease -csulted, that the government plans .o conhscate home canned goods Gardens are doing well and crops generally except corn. so all ought to Vrepare well for the winter In clos lag Miss Case offered to give a de- ionstration of canning at some future lime should those present wish it.

SWEET CLOVER IS VALUABLE

}. Without green manuring of sweet clover, but instead of tons of stable manure, 204 bushels per acre.
 3. Without green manuring, or on the untreated plot, 115 bushels per acre.
 The green manuring with sweet clover increased the yield g. bushels per acre, over. and above the total yield from the plot which received an application Of eight tons of barn yard manure, and 126 bushels per Sere more than was produced on the plot which received no treatment at all.
 Sweet clover needs a firm, solid seeedbed. The ground should not be loose. Many failures in growing it on Cultivat ted land have been due to a loose, mellow seedbed
 If it is to be used for hay it should be cut when IS or 20 inches high and before it blossoms.
 Don't blow or SOW deep Don't cut low in moving: cut at least six inches above ground. Don't have the sub soil loose. Don't be afraid to SOW sweet clover. Don't plant the yellow annual sweet clover. The white is better
 The best results are obtained by sowing in early spring as soon as the ground is dry and warm enough to put in condition for a good shallow seedbed. In the South, where there is much rainfall in winter, fall plant ing is better
 Sow anywhere on the farm, es- pecially on poor worn out spots along fence rows and in ditches

TIME TO GULL THE STACKER
 HENS.

The time has arrived when every poultryman, however large or small his flock, must be carefully watching for the indications of non- production. The stacker hen is more than an Un- productive boarder, consuming large quantities of expensive feed; her presence in the flock tends to decrease the production of the laying hens. The room which she occupies and the part which she plays in driving the house and range make conditions that much less favorable for the workers.
 Culling out the stacker hen is work which can be easily done by any poultrvman or poultry woman who will give the matter little careful thought and study. Egg production is d natural function of the hens repro ductive organs. and however we feed or care for our birds, the indications of production or production are always apparent Heavy or long con- tinued production slowly but surely takes it's toll. consequently the indica- tions are very evident at the end of the laying season.-R. E, Jones, Extension Poultryman

Judging from the countless prepar

Judging from the countless prepara- tions and treatments which are contin- ually being advertised for the purpose nf waking thin people neShy. develop ing arms, neck and bust, and replacing t.s-. ..v--oHs 1nu angIes by the soft curved lines of health and beauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their excessive thinness.
 Thinness and weakness are usually due to starved nerves Our bodies need more phosphate than is contained in modern foods Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this def1- ciency so well as the organic phosphate known among druggists as bitro- phos- phate which is inexpensive and is sold by Lee & Osgood and most all drug- gists under guarantee of satisfaction or money back By feeding the nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphoric food clements, bitro- phosphate nuickfy produces a welcome transformation in the appearance; the increase in weight frequently being astonishing.
 Clinical tests made in St. Catherine's S hospital \. Y. C.. showed that two patients gained in weight g and 27 pounds. respectively. through the ad- ministration of this organic phosphate both patients claim they have not felt

but we all live in hopes and so we don't kick.
 l don't suppose that this war will last forever, and that some day we fellows, or what's left of us, will cross the sea once again and see the only country that ever was! That is dream which we all dream, but l think we'd all have heart failure if it should really happen, because just now we all regard America as Paradise. or at any rate a good imitation of it.
 You can't imagine the sensations we all go through. especially when the big shells come whizzing and banging around When one of them comes, you'll try to shrivel up as small as possible and you feel so unnecessary that you wish you could float away somewhere. Fritz has one bad habit of throwing miniature iron foundries at us and the thoughts of them being liable to hit you are anything but pleasant Somehow or other he seems to have a delight in killing women. This is Monday. June T., and just yes terday. on Sunday, he shelled towns miles behind the lines. In one of these towns he hit church just as mass was going on and killed two women, and immediately afterWard one of his shells hit a woman with tlnY oapy in her arms. and nothing is left of either of them now. That is the kind of people we are fighting and every word about the Huns being baby killers and killers is true. So, you see, after all, it is rather a pleas ant thought to know that we are over
 here in France between that and the
 people at home.
 Well, l didn't mean at the outset o1 this letter to change it into a treatise on German barbarity, but such things can't be helped. Give my best regards to your father and to all my friends
