INCREASE IN FARES
 HURTS TROLLEY co.
Million Less Ride on Cars Than
 Rode Five Years Ago

That the increase from five to ten cent fare rate between this city and Hartford has had a serious effect on traveling on the Connecticut com pany's lines. is shown by report sub- mltted to the public utilities commis slon by the company yesterday morn ing when the petition from the City of New Britain for reduced trolley fares was considered. The city was not represented.
 The report goes on to show, how ever. that since July 15, when jitney service between the two cities was curtailed, the business on the troll leys increased 10.3 per cent
 The weekly increase in revenue passengers between July 15 and Aug ust 25, according to the figures syb- mitted, has ranged from approximate 1y 5000 to 10000 passengers.
 Under the 5-cent rate during the 1915-1916 period a total of 5,446.467 passengers were carried as against 4,140,757 passengers in the 1920-1921 period under the Decent rate. Under the scent rate the fares collected to- tailed $273,323.35, while under the 10- cent rate the total passenger revenue was $414.075.70.
 Tabulation of Figures.
 The following tabulation compares the revenue passengers on all the lines or the New Britain division dur ing the two periods of November 1915 and November, 1920, contrasted in the report as follows:
New Britain herald., 1921-10-19

1920-1921 period was affected by an industrial depression that was marked in many respects.
 The revenue passengers on the New Britain division during the 1921 summer months decreased about 8 per cent over the 1921 winter months, whereas on the basis of the years 1916-1919 inclusive, there should have been an increase of about 23 per cent" the report explains. If the showing for the winter months had not been reduced by slowing down of industry and increasing number of jitneys Cup to the middle of July) there seems to be no reason why there would have not been attained during the 1921 sun menths showing over
 winter comparable with that ob-
 liable in the 1916 and other normal periods.''
 According to the report there was a decrease of approximately 4,000 revenue passengers under the 10 cent fare in the November, 1920, Septem- Der. 1921, period. as compared with the same period in 1915-1916 under the 5 cent rate.

That is the joyful cry of thousands since Dr. Edwards produced Olive Tablets, the substitute for calomel.
 Dr. Edwards, a practicing physician for IF years and calomel's old-time enemy, discovered the formula for Olive Tablets while treating patients for chronic constipation and torpid livers..
 Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, but healing, soothing vegetable laxative.

While the report itself has not yet
been made public, it is understood
that 1t includes two principal recon-

!. The council Is requested to seek
permission from the central govern
ment of China for consuls of league
members to address themselves In
that country directly to the leaders of
the Chinese military forces, urging
them to give up the cultivation Of the
poppy.
2. The council Is requested to mp
point n special commission of inquiry
to visit personally the provinces in
China where the poppy Is grown to
ascertain the extent of the cultiva-
tion and the methods of marketing the
prohibited drug.

Gathering together the necessary
500 francs the widow piously placed
the money on the grave in purse and

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture.)
Few crops can be utilized In as
great variety Of ways as c0wpeas.
For centuries they have been grown
for human food In Asia. Africa and In
the Mediterranean region of Europe.
In this country, particularly in the
southern states, the crop is common
ly used for this purpose. but its most
important use by far Is In the feeding
Of live stock, being utilized for soiling.
hay, silage and pasture. 1t is also Of
great value as a green-manure crop to
increase the humus and nitrogen con-
tent of the soil upon which 1t Is grown.
These are points brought out In Farm
ers' Bulletin 1853. "Cowpeas: Utiliza-
tion," recently published by the Uni
ted States Department of Agriculture,
which discusses not only the utiliza-
tion Of the crop, but the methods of
growing and harvesting it for each of
its various uses.
Have High Food Value.
Cowpeas are not grown for seed
more generally because Of the uncer-
tainty of the crop, the expense of har-
vesting and the comparatively low
yield obtained. In localities well suit
cd to production it will be found
highly profitable to grow cowpea seed
on large scale, especially II the best
machinery for handling the crop is
used. The seed has high feeding
value. but is rarely cheap enough to
be used as feed. 1t can be stored for
considerable length Of time without
much danger of loss Of vitality. As 1t
is subject to attacks from insects, es-
pecially the cowpea weevil, the seed
produced In southern states should be
placed in cold storage, the bulletin
recommends.
Cowpea hay is an excellent forage
for all kinds Of stock. Even the straw
obtained from threshing the peas for
seed Is valuable stock feed. AS
rule cowpeas should not be cut for hay
before the pods begin to turn yellow.
The best quality Is produced and the
hay cures most readily IL the vines
are cut when most Of the pods are full
grown md a considerable part Of them
matured. II cut before this stage the
vines are watery and difficult to cure,
while If left too late before cutting
there will be IN unnecessary loss Of
leaves iii handling and the stems Will
be tough and woody. The hay Is
somewhat difficult to cure. but with

The bulletin recommends that cow
pea hay be substituted In tile southern
states for much Of the hay now being
purchased from the North and West.
COwpeas alone have not given good
results as silage crop. In addition
TO the high protein content, the green
vines contain large proportion of
water, producing u watery silage that
keeps poorly and Is not well relished
by stock. The best sllage Is obtained
when this crop Is grown with corn or
sorghum.
Serve Best for Hogs.
Although pasturing cowpeas is not
thought the best farm practice, under
certain conditions 1t is advisable and
quite profitable. Any kind of live
stock may be pastured on cowpeas,
but hogs are generally used. The best
time for turning the stock on cowpeas
Is when the crop has reached the stage
Of maturity thought best for hay.
As soiling crop. the cowpea can
be used advantageously to supplement
crops with less protein, such as corn,
sorghum and millet. It Is used more
as soil builder than any other legume,
