DON'T Slow Up
Advertising NOW!

Never has there been time when the public has
looked more kcenly for MERCHANDISING NEWS
than
Never has there been time more suspicious for
the enterprisng tradesman to secure HIS FULL
SHARE OF TRADE than now.
The tendency is to cut out luxuries, and luxuries
are only relatively small proportion of your BUSH
ness. For every luxury cut out you have
chance to increase your movement of staples
How short-sighted is the policy of reducing adj
vertising expense to "save money! You will only
lose trade. You will only lose prestige.
Advertise to increase sales and make money;
don't cut it out to money
Study your advertising you did before
dc it wisely and well.
Be prosperous and let the people know that you
prosperous.
Success was NEVER achieved by stopping ad-
vertsing by wearing old clothes and talking
pessimism.
Be WISE - and ADVER TISE

STUBBORN LOT,
SAYS DISPATCH

London, March 25-The British in
their retreat defended every hill,
ridge and fertilization with the great
est stubbornness, messages from Ger
man war correspondents on the west
ern front say, according to a Central
News dispatch from Amsterdam. The
British artillery, it is added, SPLEEN
didly sacrificed itself in covering the
retreat, the batteries only breaking
up when the German storming troops
arrived within a few hundred yards
of the positions. The gunners then
fired their last ammunition and re-
tired.
The Germans swarmed over No
Mans Land in such great numbers in
their first attacks that it was impossi-
BILE for the British gunners to miss
them, telegraphs the correspondent
of the Daily Express. Two batteries
at Epehy fired steadily with open
sights at 400 yards for four hours.
Telling of the thrilling exploit of
Leicestershire troops, the correspond
ent says:
"Perzieres was held for a time by
tSO companies of Leicestershires, as

pressing them back however, and one
company was completely cut off. In

DANIEL G, WOOD,

In the death of Daniel Curtis Wood,
who died at his home on North Main
street, Saturday afternoon, Stratford
loses one of her oldest and most re-
spected citizens. Mr.. Wood was the
son of Curtis and Sally L. Wood OF
Weston, Conn, where he was born
Dec. "a, 1910. AS a young man he
settled in West Stratford, now
Bridgeport, where he was engaged
in business for a number of years.
Subsequently he moved to Stratford,
where he has been active in the
lumber business until recently.
Politically he waS affiliated with the
Democratic party and held various
town offices as representative, select
man, justice of peace and member of
the school board.
Mr.. Wood was a charter member
of the Park Street Congregational
church of Bridgeport, prior to joining
the Stratford Congregational church
in 1881 where he served as a deacon
for a number of years.
He was a member of the Cupheag
Social club, and a life member and
past master of St. Johns Lodge, No.
F. and A. NJ, and a member of Ham
ilton's Commandery, No. 5, K. T., al
Bridgeport
He is survived by his widow, Eliza
E. Wood, three daughters, Mrs. Nah
lon S. Faust and Mrs. Robert B. Ath-
erton of Stratford, and Mrs. Walter
C. Iusher of Brooklyn, N. Y, and
seven grandchildren.

best breeding stock and the most
careful incubation, some eggs will be
infertile. If these eggs are tested out
from the 5th to the 7th day, their
food value has not been decreased,
and they are perfectly wholesome for
human consumption. If such eggs
are not needed in the home, they may
be sold on the market at reasonable
price. 1t is, of course necessary that
they be carefully ,candled to meet the
market requirements.
The infertile egs that have broken
yolks or are watery, together with the
blood rings and dead germs may be
boiled cor twenty minutes anad fed to
poultry or hogs. Do not under any
condition, feed raw incubator eggs
to poultry If Bacillary White Diar-
rhea be present in any of the eggs,
it will infect the birds to which it is
fed. Boiling for twenty minutes does
away with all possibility of contagion.
The boiled eggs may be fed in a wet
mash at noon.
Gambling without proper equipment
is sometimes quite expensive because
of the time required. In large COM
mercial hatcheries, a strong electric
light or flashlight is passed under
the tray to locate the egs in which a
chick is not developing. These eggs
must, Of course, be passed before the
candle to grade out those not suitable
for human consumption. Sunshine is
the best light for Gambling. It may
be used by darkening a room and
holding the egg up to an opening in a
heavy curtain. The sun does not al
ways shine, however, consequently, an
electric light or strong kerosene
lamp are more reliable. 1t pays to
use the strongest available.

of the Connecticut Agricultural Col
lege is prepared to give evening lee

trymen are interested in checking the
economic losses connected with incu-
baton and brooding. If interested,
