 WANT VALSTEAD ACT AMENDED

CContinued from Page One.) unanimously adopted, and temporary officers were made permanent officers of the convention.
 Ex-Mayor Frank Guilfoile, of Wat erbury, chairman of the committee on resolutions, reported for the com mittee, and the report was unanimous ly adopted.
 In the committee a recommenda- tion of the state central committee that Connecticut delegation to San Francisco be instructed to vote as unit was defeated and the only refer ence made to the delegation was the plank which gives each delegate the right to name his own alternate. This latter provision will probably mean that two at least of the delegates at large will name women as their alter mates.
 The platform denounced Governor Holcomb because of his stand on the suffrage question and expressed it's happiness over the encouraging re- turn of President Wilson to his ac- customed health.
 It had been reported and openly discussed before the convention re- sumed that MT. Mahan's name would be opposed. and efforts were made to have c. c. Middlebrooks, of Winsted, former United States marshal serve as the opposing candidate. As Chair man Cummings put the motion to en- dorse the delegates, and delegates at large, at the one time, many persons edged up their chairs, other from the rear came forward and quietness set tied down. MT. Cummings waited but there was no response and he put the | motion and declared it carried un- animously.
 The state delegates chosen were: At large-David B. Fitzgerald, may or of New Haven and state chairman; | Bryan F. Mahan, postmaster of New London; Thomas J. Spe1lacy, an as- | sistant United States attorney gener- al, and Charles D. Lockwood of | Stamford.
 The district delegates are: Congressman A. Lonergan l and Phil M. LeaFin, of Hartford Second-Daniel P. Dunn of Willi-
 mantle and Edward M Yeomans of Andover.
 Third-James J. Walsh, Merider and Arthur B. O'Keefe of Orange. Fourth Jeremiah Donovan of Nor walk and William P. Kirk of Bridge port
 F1fth-E. o. Wagner, of Bakevil1e
 and w. R. Palmer of Oxford. The entire delegation met this af
 ternoon when the alternates were tc
 be announced and arrangements madt | for the trip to San Francisco. I
 was expected that Homer S. Cum
 mings would be reelected nationa
 committeeman, and he also will bt
 an alternate for his law partner, MT 1 Lockwood. The new state centra | committee met and reelected MT | Fitzgerald as chairman and A. s | Lynch as secretary. i (End LEAD.)

 The progress of the revolutionary movement already is such that the rebels are planning an early conple- ton of their progress, which calls for the selection of a provisional presi- dent 'when Mexico City is occupied and a majority of the states have adopted the plan of Agua Prieta.' D The naming of Adolfo De La Huerta as acting president and the selection of an acting cabinet has been ex- plained as merely preliminary and done for the purpose of organization. The plan provides for the selection of a supreme commander of the army within 60 days or before June 23.

WHEN TO CULTIVATE CORN

The best answer to the question of
how frequently corn should be cult
waited, say specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture, is
that is should be cultivated often
enough to keep down weeds and to
maintain constantly loose soil mulch
till the corn has attained its growth.
TO this end a greater number of cul-
tivations will be necessary when
rains at intervals of about week
cause the surface soil to run together
and crust. This crust must be broken
an dthe soil mulch restored, or ex-
ccssi"c rnn-otf and evaporation will
soon rob the soil fits moisture.
Promptness in restoring the soil
mulch after rain is important With
double cultivators widened and by
driving astridc each alternate row,
the mulch is restored in half the time
necessary to drive astrde of every
row.
