cifc question and involving their

lily settled by diplomacy and is likely
to effect the harmonious accord now
happily existing between them they
shall invite the high contesting par

the whole subject will be referred
for consideration and adjustment.
ARTICLE .: If the said rights are
threatened by the aggressive action

contracting parties shall communi-
cate with one another fully and
frankly in order to arrive at an I'M
derstanding as to the most efficient
measures to be taken, Jointly and
separately to meet the exigencies
of the particular situation.
Article 8: This agreement shall

almost concluded and also to the re-
servation with respect to what are
the inundated in the Pacific
ocean south of the equator.
1T should also be observed that
the controversy to which the pro-
posed treaty refers does not embrace
questions which according to princi-
pies of international law lie exclu-
within the domestic jurisdic-
ton of the respective powers.
THE conference will perceive hal

troversy should arise, as to such

EAST SIDE DRINKING FOUNTAIN
WATER PASSES GOOD TEST

Following come complaints received
about the drinking water that is supplied
from spring for the fountain on Main
street on the East Side. samples of the
spring water were taken by Inspector
Henry Gebrath of the health department
and have been sent for analysis to the
state laboratory at New Haven.
Report from the analysis, which has
just been received by the city health de-
partment. shows that the water is safe
for drinking purposes.
The state department gives the follow
ing report on the water: This water con-
tains a moderate amount of mineral
water and is soft. The sample submitted
is free from color, odor and turbidity.
The figures for organic constituents are
not high but the chlorine figure is con-
siderably above the normal for that re-
gion. The number of bacteria growing
on agar at body temperature is low and
no suspicious organisms were found. This
supply was apparently safe and satisfac-
tory for drinking purposes at the time of
collection of this sample insofar as shown
by the results of this examination, but
the source of the high chlorine content
should be investigated.
The city health department will take
steps to follow the suggestion as to in
vestigation of the high chlorine content.
The East Side fountain has two water
supplies. the spring water from the Frank
Ford spring, which is for drinking pur-
poses. and the city water that supplies
the trough for watering horses

OUTLOOK OF AMERICAN AGRICULTURE

AGRICULTURAL era as the outcome Of the
present distressing times.
The secretary reviewed faithfully the
present situation of American agriculture,
analyzing the factors that brought 1t
about In large part, he declared, the
troubles of the farmer today are due TO
worldwide conditions and the inevitable
result of the World war, and it is not TO
be expected that by some miraculous
transformation this period of adversely
may be turned into period OF pros
perity.
High freight rates, big crops produced
in the face of high costs, unemployment
the other industries of the country with
the attendant lessenlng in buying ana
the lack of foreign markets Tor our SUIT
pluses gre given by the secretary as lne
more immediate causes for agrlcullalai
conditions facing the farmer this year In
some respects vicious circle mas oeen
created that it is difficult for US to
braal< through, he declared. In discussing
tbs question of the effect of European
buying of our surplus foodstufs the sec
rotary said:
Had some way been found for the
people in need to buy our surplus at
nrices which would cover the Cost OF
production the American farmer Wouiu
have been prosperous and the country
would have prospered with him.. 1t is
terrible indictment Of modern ciyiaza-
tion that with such abundance here there
are millions of people overseas suIeilns
for the bare necessities and other mliiions
starving to death. And surely we are sao-
" lacking in our understanding OF ecolo-
,r6c laws of our our adjustment to them
when the production of bounteous crops
crown by hard labor of 13,oO0,0oo farm
ers and farm workers and their famllles Is
permitted ito play such large part IN
naralyzing our industries and business at
home"
The purchasing power if the principal
farm crops of the year 1921, declared tne
secretary, at the present time is lower
than ever before known In times past
Soma of these crops, he pointed out, nave
sold at lower prices per sale unit ex-
dressed in dollars and cents, but probandy
never before have our farmers generally
been compelled to exchange their crops
ner sale urdt for such small amounts on
the things they need. The purchasing
power of our major grain crops Is it'll,
more than half what it was on an average
| for the five prewar years Of 191O-1914. in
| elusive.
The secretary drew particular attention
to the matter of freight rates and theil
direct effect upon the farmer. The cos
of getting farm products from the farm t.
| the consumers table. he pointed out has
Norwich bulletin. [volume] (Norwich, Conn.) 1895-2011, 1921-12-12
increased tremendously during the past

Increased tremendously during the past
three years.
The secretary pointed out that Difficult
ties of the producers Of our foodstuffs
are matter ef national concern, and de-
clared that continued promotion, which Is
absolutely necessary for our national life
depends upon whether or not the farmer
receives a fair price for his products
He reviewed the progress of legislation by
the present congress fer aiding the farm
er, all Of which he declared is of CON
structive character and will be more
helpful than is now realized He ex-
pressed the belief that much is to be
hoped for from the agricultural dnquirs
that has been under way since midsum-
mer by joint committee of the senate
and house. Tho results, he said, should
be very helpful in enabling US to plan
wisely in the future
Need fer enabling the department more
OF its efforts along research lines was en-
phasized. In this connection. the Sec
rotary drew attention to the advssabiIif-
OF congress granting permission for tn
combining of three important branches q
