TO AID RASPBERRY GROWERS
Specialists TO Make Thorough investl-
cation Of Diseases In Middle
West Region.

Raspberry growers, particularly In
the lake region Of the middle West,
have encountered difficulties resulting
from diseases not thoroughly under
stood that have seemed to threaten
the existence Of the industry, unless
effective methods Of control could be
worked out. The United States de-
partment OF agriculture has been In
vestigating the situation for some time
past and Is about to begin more inten-
sive studies. Specialists will spend
practically the entire season In the
field. thoroughly investigating the dis
ease to determine the causes and
habits Of growth and to devise control
measures by spraying and otherwise.

Biggest Year In History.
The year 1920 should be the biggest
year In the history Of boys and girls
club work and I am confident that IL
will be. The country is facing diff
cult situation, because so many men
have left the farms to work In the
city. The good work that the club
boys and girls can do will help to over
come that handicap, and the club boys
and girls will do that kind of work
this year. 1t may hearten you to
know that many Of us here In the de-
partment Of agriculture look upon the
boys and girls clubs much as Caesar

ESTIMATES $1t2,eo COST
 FOR TROLlEYS OVER BRIDGE

Receiver R. ". Perkins of the Shore Line Electric Railway company, at a conference at the Chamber of Com merce rooms in New London Monday afternoon, called to discuss ways by which the connecting links in the trolley service between New London and Groton could be constructed, esti- mated that the total cost of tracks across the Thames river highway bridge, the rebuilding of the Crystal avenue bridge in New London, the connecting lines of track and new equipment would be s112,000.
 Receiver Perkins felt that there was some way to solve the difficulty and he said that it would be of benefit to the trolley companies to have these l connecting lines built. He thought that with the assistance of the city of New London, the borough of Groton. and the state of Connecticut that the trolley roads could stand part of the total cost through the issaa nee of spe-
 cial bonds to run about Is years. 1T the city of New London spends
 $25 .ee0 for Crystal avenue bridge and | the state of Connecticut consents to build a tar bottom macadam instead
 of a concrete road, the cost would be
 further reduced by about $15, 900, SC ] that only approximately s75,000 would
 nave to De TalSed Dy the Connecticut company and the Shore Line.
 Much depends of course on what ths Shore Line does with the Groton an6 Stoningten branch It is understood l that MT. Perkins has at the present time two prospective customers fol this property. He stated that connec- tion would be of greater benefit to tn, GEoton and Stonington line, than DOS. lsibly to the Connecticut company. al.
 though both roads would benefit iron | the traffic.
 I MT. Perkins had figures showing tn, I number of people who had used tn, ferry on trolley transfers. WhicT showed how many might possibly us,
 the trolley in case it ran across tn,

 pepses are deducted the net profit wa about s6,0D0.
