 The jury returned verdict Thursday sustaining the will.

Copp who. in his direct examination, testified that he drew the will of Ellen Benham and who, in his cross examination, was asked certain questions to which the appellees objected and to the rulings oi

GIVEN CONVERSATION, LOST
 SIGHT OF ONE EYE

Lawrence R. Browning, a minor, of 221 Maple street, is found to be enti- tied to 104 weeks compensation for the loss of sight of an eye, according to a finding made by Commissioner J. J.

Compensation is to be at the rate of SIS per week.

The respondents are also to pay medi- cal and hospital bills.

the court in sustaining said objections and appellant took exceptions. It is claimed the ruled out questions were relevant and material.
 In the motion to arrest Judgment and grant a new trial the claim is made that in ruling upon the admissibility of the cross examination of witnesses of fered by the appellee during the intro duction of his testimony at the opening of the case, the court erroneously ap- piled and exercised it's discretion with reference to the order of proof in, such a manner as to exclude and reject prop CT cross-examination of the appellee said witnesses and the appellant had no opportunity at any later stage in the case to cross examine said Witnesses with reference to subjects upon which said witnesses were examined in thei1 direct examination and the cross ex- animation of whom on said subjects was rejected by the court.

FARM BUREAU LEADERS
 TALK COOPERATIVE BUYING

New London county was well repre- sented at the state meeting held in Hartford on Wednesday of this week. to consider the different problems which arise in connection with cooperative buying. Twenty-one farmers attended this meeting from New London county, going from Waterford, Lisbon, Preston, Lebanon Norwich Town and Yantic
 number of important points were brought out at this meeting. Dr. Has kell, director o fthe Massachusetts. Ex- tension Station, discussed the fertilizer situation, and in the course of his re marks stated that if the prices of farm products go lower or even Iennail whers. they are and fertilizer prices do not decrease that the farmers are no obliged to buy high price fertilizer t. grow low price farm products.
 pr. Jenkins, of the New Haven Ex- pertinent Station, brought out the fact that from 60,000' to 7O0OO tons of fer tilizer are used each year in Connecti- cut, representing an annual expenditure at present prices of from 1-2 to 3 million dollars Over 400 different brands are sold, each one of these brands being analysed once a year at the experiment station. The farmer of today need not worry about what he is getting, as he is getting all that is | guaranteed in nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash.
 1 It would seem with the prices of chemicals that home mixing would be much mere worth while than it usually is, and under ordinary conditions farm CTS can save several dollars per ton in
 mixing their own fertilizer. Fertilizer
 manufacturers are urging the early i purchase of goods, so as to avoid the | fTnII lac s,I, | spring. Many farmers arc buying be-
 cause of this reason as presented by
 the manufacturers. The fact is how ever that there are a good many idle freight cars on hand at the present time due to the slowing down of many indus
 tries which formally used a large mum. Der of cars. There are also a good
 many boats ayilable to transport fer.
 tilizer from mixing plants to seaports in Connecticut, if a tie-uD in transpor.
 tatlon should arise next spring as in the past
 The sense of the meeting semeed te
 be that early buying of fertilizers ot any sort was inadvisable H. W link.
 ham of the Providence Farmers Ex. change, stated that the board of direc- tors of this organization did not plan i to discuss the buying of fertilizer until after January 18th, and possibly later
 than that. Other men staeed that hur-
 ried buying was not necessary this year
 That while prices may remain high they will go no higher and there is a chance that there will be a drop. The
 fertilizer manufacturer holds out to the l farmer that he is mixing his goods with
 high price chemicals and must therefore
 charge high price accordingly for the mixed goods, so that he will not lose.
 Farmers, as class, would be well sat
 isfed to work under such a system with | farm products. After paying s5 for seed thls past spring, and a correspond lrgly high price for fertilizer and then throwing in a little high priced ineffi. cient labor, it would have been a fine proposition for them to have said this

Prof. William orrin Turner Missed.

The Onlooker in The Stonington Mir TOT writes:
 The report of the death of Prof. w. o. Turner at Willimantic recently came as sad news to many in Stonington. The old gentleman was well and favor ably known in the borough. Men along the business street got in the habit of looking forward pleasantly to his occa- sional visits when he came down, as he frequently used to, to see his old friend, the late Dr. c. o. Maine. They were two great cronies Professor Fur ner's faculties were well preserved for man of his advanced age As a re- citer of anecdotes and witticisms he was joy and as a cheer dispenser a val. uable asset to any rainy day.
