A Street SprinkIer-why Notp

Editor Democrat:
In the days when was young Eugene
Fletcher and his street sprinkler was q
familiar sight In South Paris. There
have been many changes ip our village
since then. Most, but not all, of the
changes have been improvements. We
have telephones, electric lights, a sewer
Q water system Of our own, cement walkl
and fine piece OF cement road, and su.
tomobllss are flying about our streets al
all hours leaving behind them q trail OF
smell and dust. 1t Is of this same dus,
that / wish to speak. It rises In clouds,
floats down our streets, drifts In at doors
and windows and finds It's way through
every crack and crevice into our homes
Some who have city water have been get
ting measure Of relief by sprinkllpg the
road near them with q garden hose, but
just at the time when sprinkling Ia most
needed word comes from the "Powers
that Be- saying the water 10 low and
must all be saved for household use and
fire protection. So We must live In the
dust until merciful Heaven shall send NJ
. shower. Is 10 any wonder that my
thoughts 60 back to the "Good Old
Times" and wish that once again Eu.
gene Fletcher's street sprinkler, or some.
thing similar, might be seen on our vii.
lage streets. And why not? Those who
breathe the dust-laden air are liable to
have all sorts Of throat and lung troubles
Surely something should be done to pro.
tect the health Of our community from
the dust menace, and why not . street.

Farm Bureau Notes.

During the past week Farm Bureau
committee meetings have been held in
Paris, Norway, Bnckfleld and Lowell, to
consider the factors affecting the profits

Gus problems might be remedied. The

for next year.
Norway has not yet Farm Bureau or
ganization, and 80 the group of farmers
met with The county agent for the pur-
pose of considering the prospects which
might result through the Farm Bureau
work. After q thorough discussion OF
the problems confronting the farmers,
those present decided that the town
should have the farm bureau organiza.
ttion because 1t could materially aid In
solving the many farm problems affect.
ing the community.

by the various towns includes farm &C.
counts, COW test associations and relies,
silsge and oat demonstrations, orchard
spraying, pruning, fertilization and com.
munity. planting, poultry culling and

aud girls club work, as we'll as cthel
| features. Many believed that insufficient
clover was being produced and decided

OF feed, which might be remedied by
raising more homegrown feed, such at
silsge corn and clover.
