There was no train over the local
line yesterday. the engine being in the
shop ut Encampment for repairs. In
an announcement elsewhere in his is
sue Superintendent McShane states
that he will Don have the company's
other engine in commission on the
local line, after which he will be able
to give better service to patrons of the
road. Since he took charge of the road
several months ago, Mr.. McShane has
had but II engine in repair, and the
blockades of snow and other troubles
with which he has had to contend have
made the present season an interesting,
if not especially pleasant, one for him.
No particular hardships have resulted
from the few periods when the road
was tied up, and the conscientious eff
forts of Superintendent McShane to
give continued service are appreciated
by the people of the valley.

In the court of Justice w. r. Peryam
at Riverside, on Thursday of next week,
will be threshed out the details of Il
considerable quarrel between J. w.
Barkhurst and II. w. Brown, the latter
having for some time past had the
Barkhurst ranch on Brush creek under
lease. Believing that his renter was
not living up to his agreements, anG
was also more or less careless of the
owners stock and other property about
the ranch, Mr.. Barkhurst some time
ago took measures to move the unde-
sirable tenant from his place, and he
now claims that when the Brown fam
lily finally moved off they took along
with them all the house furnishings
and everything else on the place which
was not too heavy TO be moved by or
binary means. Deputy Sheriff Carver
left today for the vicinity of the Char
ter Oak mine to a%pprehend the Browns.

 RENTS "THE NAPLES
Will Continue as Before for Benefit of the
 Community

Since the announcement of Miss Bragg to close the Naples on April 18th, a serious problem has pre- sented itself as to where many of those now residing there would find a place to live. Others have openly expressed themselves regarding the matter, declaring that such action would be a distinct setback to the village in general. +.....
 The Community Service Associa- tion have interested themselves in the matter and have agreed to rent the place, fully equipped and con- duct it's as heretofore. When the Association will take over the prop erty depends upon how soon a suit able person can be secured to man. age an institution of this nature.
 The White School of Photography have made The Naples their head quarters for several seasons and many are pleased that it will be possible to accommodate them in the future. The Community Association are attempting something larger than ever before and it is hoped the efforts of those interested will meet with success.

SCARCITY OF FARM LABOR
State Agriculture Board Predicts
 Small Production This Year

Hundreds of Connecticut farmers have appealed. to the American land service at 32 West 47th street, New York, to provide farm workers for this state for the rush period of the summer. Connecticut agriculturists say that the labor situation is serious and the sentiment of several is repre- sented by letter sent to the Ameri- can land service by one farmer, as follows:
 "The time seems near at hand when we farmers will have to curtail production and raise only what we need for our own use; letting the other fellows look out for them selves"
 Leonard H.. Healey, secretary of the state board of agriculture, Thom- as Holt, state dairy and food com missioner, and others, say that the coming year will be smaller than in a great many years past.
 "It looks as though some farmers will have to go out of business en- tirely," said Commissioner Holt "The time has come when it is im- possible to get help for farms, and there is nothing for the farmer to do but to curtail production. It is a more serious question than most people seem to realize"

OUESTIONNAIRES OUT
 ON CHILD WELFARE 1
Commission Seeks Data On Dependent Tots Under
 4 Years

The state child welfare commis- sion has sent out questionnaires to the selectmen of the 168 towns in the state, asking for information re- garding the following matters:-
 How many dependent children un- der years of age are there in the town.
 How many are placed in free homes.
 How many are in almshouses and other institutions. A ##
 How many are in boarding homes.
 What is the amount paid each week for the support of these children. t..
 What are the ages, and at what age were they placed.
 How many children over years old were placed by the selectmen in county homes during the past year.
 How many were taken in charge of selectmen because of poverty.
 How many because of improper guardianship.
 The executive committee of the State Cihld Welfare Commission has sanctioned the idea of having promi- nent men and women deliver ad- dresses on the subject of child well fare throughout Connecticut, at pub lie gatherings. That there is urgent need of better legislation for the welfare of the children of the state is conceded by those who have stud jed the subjects, and when the 1921 session of the Legislature convenes, the Commission, appointed by Cover nor Marcus H. Holcomb, will make several recommendation for addi- tional laws governing children.
 Among those who will speak at these public meetings are Rev. Dr. William P. Ladd, dean of Berkeley Divinity School of Middletown Professor Henry P. Fairchild, exc cutive secretary of the Commission Angus P. Thorne, superintendent of Charities in Bridgeport; Wilbur F. Gordy, president of the Hartford Board of Education, and formerly Supt. of Schools in Springfield, Mass. Miss Caroline deF. Penniman, Supt. of the Connecticut Industrial School for Girls; Herbert M. Dia- mond, assistant secretary of the Commission; Miss Mabel F. Thomp- son, field agent, and others.
 Meetings will be held in several cities, and towns, in order to bring before the public the absolute need of adequate legislation for the well ! fare of the children of Connecticut.

REPUBLICAN WOMEN
 WANT SPECIAL SESSION
Communications R iv q from Surrounding
 Towns .s..as

The following communications have been received from women prominent in suffrage circles from nearby towns. While we have not yet been fully converted to their cause, we are happy to be of service to these Republican ladies or any other ladies who wish to reach a large number of people in North western Connecticut through the columns of the News.
 a >M Salisbury, Conn.
 @ March 16, 1920
 Coming from Republican strong hold wish to register a protest in Republican paper against the delay of the Connecticut Legislature in calling a special session for the rati- fication of the Federal Suffrage Amendment. The small group Of men who have so strenuously on- posed the efforts of their women te secure full citizenship would be wise to change their policy, especially 90 as the State Democrats are about Q launch a campaign to capture all of the women's ovtes possible, as sooA as the thirty sixth state ratifies.
 Women are loyal, and Republican women prefer to stand by their own party, never the less, there is bitter disappointment beginning to mani fest itself among them and if ratih- cation should come, with Connect- cut the only New England state to refuse her help, there might be a larger falling off in Republican sup port among the new voters.
 Political unrest is so universal these days that steady and as- sured following is a most valuabh asset, and it does not seem possibfe that the leaders in the state have noe realized this. There is still time for the extra session and all good Re- pubEcans earnestly hope it will bs called.

Fishing Season Opens April 1

The fishing season will open April 1, when the open season on trout will go into effect. The law enacted at the 1919 session of the legislature provides that not more than 20 trout can be taken by any one fisherman in any one day and that no trout less than six inches in length shall be hooked. An effort was made at the last legislature to have the length of captured trout changed from six to seven inches, but it failed to pass.
