WILL SETTLE DAMAGE
TO IRON FENCE

Captain John Bulger has learned
the name Of the man who was driving
the Ford car that crashed through the
fence on Grove street last week ThIrs-
day evening. The man is in the en-
pioy Of the Jordan Hardware Com
psny of Willimantic. The company
has assured the officer that all damage
viii be paid for.
Last week it was stated that the
driver left the city without giving any
notice Of the accident. It Is only fair
to state that the man called on Post
master Gilman and told him Of the &C.
currence, as the lot is the property of
the government, and was purchased as
postofhce site.

FLIvvER CUTS UP
IN UNION SQUARE

Just because the driver Of Ford
stepped on the wrong lever the fiiv-
ver's plans went awry and instead Of
making a graceful sweep around the
fountain in Union Square Il began to
back its way into thu front door Of
the Putnam Inn. The occurrence
happened Saturday afternoon. The
car did not quite gain entrance to the
hotel as the strong doors resisted the
pressure to degree necessary to stop
Lizzie's progress just as they flew
open. The only damage was to the
door hinges and to the rear bumper
and Twilight of the Ford.

WHY SHOES ARE q
TOBEC CHEAPER

The real reason why shoe prices
are going down is the very simple one
that consumers viii not buy them ex-
cept at lower prices. we read in Dun's
Review. In the opinion Of the writer
In this financial weekly the continued
comments and featured articles in
the daily press concerning the de-
pressed conditions prevailing in hides
and leather are very influential In
bringing down retail shoe prices, and
although reductions are as yet by no
means general, 1t is evident that the
decline in footwear prices which has
been pending for many months has at
least started" To quote further:
At a recent meeting of the western
Association of Shoe Wholesalers held
in st. Louis, 1t was estimated that
shoe prices, in general. had declined
on an average about 35 per cent since
last May. The prediction was also
made that continued recessions would
occur. The above estimate Of the de-
cline In footwear agrees with about
all other reports from the retailtrade,
as most lines that were priced at SIS
are now selling at around $11.50 to
$12, and SIS lines at around $3.50 to
$40. More medium-grade shoes are
also down from s12 to around IS,
and $40 lines to $3.50 to 81.
1t is apparent from the present re-
strictions of consuming demand that
the general public Is not satisfied
with such reductions as have so far
been made. and, after reading in
newspapers of raw hides and skins
selling at below pre-war levels. con-
sumers fail to sec why any higher
rates than those Of 1913 and 1914
should be charged for footwear. Shoe
retailers are naturally slow to clean
out their surplus stocks at a material
loss. but the contention is made in
hide and leather circles. and by shoe
manufacturers as well, that until
this liquidation occurs among retail
ers, and a fresh start is made on a
new basis. the entire allied industry

can not hope for any real revival Of
business.
During the boom Of last year some
OF the newspapers Of the country were
publishing all kinds OF predictions As
to how high in price shoes were like
ly to go. which prompted many On
sumers to buy more footwear than
their immediate wants required. Just
as some published articles are nov
causing consumers to refrain from
purchasing. So long as old shoes
can be tapped OF otherwise renovated.
the new pair remains in the retailers
store. Whether or not the public has
a sufficient reserve to outlast the pa
thence of the shoe dealers remains to
be seen. While the buying public is,
of course, entitled to know conditions
existing in the shoe and leather in
dustry. the complaint Of many in the
trade is that there is danger Of real
facts being obscured by daily news
paper writer's not conversant with the
intricacies Of the business. and even

fuse the general public by contradic-

AIDED NORTHWEST FARMERS
TO INCREASE ALFALFA CROPS

Farmers In Oregon and Washing
ton have greatly Increased their al
faifa crops by the application of sui
phur. This practice is based upon
the results OF Investigations By the
experiment stations in these States
as well Of demonstrations of the use
OF sulphur on alfalfa conducted by
the county agricultural agents in CO.
operation with specialists from the
agricultural college. In Deschute
County last year 2s5 tons of sulphur
were used, at a total cost Of a little
more than $4,000, and the increased
yield. reckoned at $40 a ton. vas
100000. In Jackson County 277
tons. costing about $4,000, are es-
timated to have increased the yield
$4,000. In Klamath County ss
tons. costing $500. gave an esti-
mated increase of $4,000, reckon
ing alfalfa at SIS per ton. Demon
STATIONS in Josephine. wallowa, and
Wasco Counties give a similar ratio
of results. The first experiments in
sulphur fertilization in these States
were made in 1912. Rapid devel-
opment Of the innovation was made
possible through the system of coun-
ty agents and key men who were
practical farmers.
