 Beginning with the February Ex. tension Schools. the Home Eeonemics program of the Windham County Farmers Association will include rec
 ords of the kind, amount and value of home grown products used on the farms of tho county. A general dis eussion of the subject, together with plans regarding the means of obtain ing this information, will be presented 1 at the Abingdon Extension School, on Wednesday. Feb. 2, at 9.30 B. m.; at Plainfieid Extension School, Friday. Feb. 4, at lo.1o a. m.; and at Canter- bury Extension School, Tuesday, Feb. 8. at S.30 a. m. All persons interested are urged to attend one of these meet inss, or to get in touch personally with the Home Demonstration Agent. This subject Is. also recommended, to Oranges or other agricultural organ izations In making up their programs for the year. ss 'v, ~ The fact that much of the food used in the farm home would have to be bought at retail prices if it were not produced on the place, and this, to- gether with the fact that the same product, when put into the market by the farmer, usually commands wholesale price, shows a saving in us- ing home grown products whenever possible.
 Monthly sheets for keeping record of the amount, kind and value of pro- ducts used may be obtained from the Home Demonstration Agent. A copy of these records Is to be sent in to the Farmers Association office each month. From the data so obtained fig ures will be compiled showing to what extent in Windham county the farmer is his own best customer.

LOCOMOTIVE IN ScITUATE
 FOR FIRST TIME

A locomotive, the property of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, came into North Scituate over the trolley tracks from Killingly Sunday. This is the first time that a locomotive has ever entered the town, according to the memory of the oldest residents. It was taken to Providence by electric power. The engine was run upon the electric rails at Hartford avenue. a special spur track having been built. There is no electric power from North Scituats to Killingly. and the machine was needed.

THE LEGISLATURE

Next Wednesday, the General
Assembly will convene at Annap-
oils and for the following three
months will hold the centre OF
the stage in Maryland.
1t ought to be, and probably
will be, a business session. There
is nothing that can legitlmatly
come before it of a partisan
character. unless partisanshlp
may be dragged into it for effect.
There ought to be nothing OF a
factional character, but doubt
less there will be, for the mem
bers are human, they have likes
and dislikes, their jealousies,
their ambitions, their desires
for prominence and preferment,
and all these will doubtless be
evident early in the session, and
will cause the assembled Mary
land Statesmen to swerve IRON
the strict lines of business, to
which, in theory, they ought de-
vote themselves for the ninety
days in which they are expect
ed to serve the people and the
public welfare, with the help
of the Lord" as their oath pro-
vides.
There will really be no excuse
for any manifestations of parti-
sanship or factionalism at the
State House this winter. The
legislation needed, as a result
of the changed conditions arising
from the war, are purely business
in their character, and should be
considered in that light. The
democrats have such a prepond-
erence in the membership OF
both Houses, have the Governor
and all the other important offic-
ials, that they ought to have no
trouble whatever in enacting
their program. And the repub-
licans are in such "a hopeless
minority, that the policy for
them to follow, if they are wise,
will be to assent to the Cover
nor's program, and back it up
without opposition.
Whatever troubles may arise
will nc. doubt be factional in its
character for, while the factions
are working together in har-
mony at the present time, many
of the old time sores and hatreds
still exist, and no doubt there
will be spasmodic outbreaks
from time to time. These fact
ional sores are, not confined
to the City, It must be remem-
bered that for many years there
have been strong factional align
ments in what is known as the
Estate crowd, and kthat these
factional feelings in the State
democracy. have been quite as
strong as those which have al
most disrupted the city democ-
racy for more then genera
tion. Governor Ritchie has
shown unusual skill in his man
agement of these factions since
he became Governor and it is to
be hoped that he will meet with
equally great success in manag-
ing them during the remainder
of his term, and especially dur
ing the next three months.
Governor Richie is at Annap-
oils working night and day to
complete his program for sub
mission to the legislature next
week, in order that it may start
out as soon as the organization
is brought about. He expects to

that the boss had call from min

ing a bunch of mine owners at Strath-
coma who We're having trouble with
smelter. The smelter. one of the few
Hatch monopolies which hadn't been
shaken loose as vet, was located in
the gulch six miles below Strathcona,
and it was served exclusively by its
own industrial railroad, which it was
using as a lever to pry an excessive
hauling charge out of the mine own
ers. Wouldn't Mr.. Norcross try to do
something about it?
The boss said he'd do anything he
could. and asked what the mine own
ers wanted. Dawes said they wanted
help; that they We're going to hold
mass meeting in Strathcona the fol-
lowing morning at nine o'clock. Would
it, or wouldn't it, be possible for Mr..
Norcross to be present at that meet
ing?
OF course. the boss said he'd go.
Dawes went away, and before we
broke off to 90 to dinner at the rail-
road club, was given a memorandum
order for a special.
AT the club I found that Mr.. Nor
cross had an invited guest-Major
Kendrick. For a week or two Mrs.
Sheila had been visiting at the state
capital, and the major's wife and
Maisie Ann were with her. So the
good old major was sort of unattached,
and glad enough. l took it, to be a
guest at anybody's table.

That was the way Mrs. Sheila had
nut II to the boss. one evening along
in the summer when they were sit
ting out on the Hendricks porch. and
! had butted in. as usual, with q bunch
of kilograms that didn't matter. She
had said that the experiment couldn't

For II little while they talked busi-

said, if he said anything at all, but
if ! had been stone deaf l think 1
should have heard the thing that Mr..
Hornack said when he went on.
81 heard something the other day
in Portal City that seems pretty hard
to believe, Norcross. 1t was at one
of Mrs. Stagford's evenings, and I
was sitting out dance with a certain
young woman who shall be nameless.
We we're speaking of the Hendricks,
and she gave me n rather broad hint
that Mrs. Macrae isn't widow at
allt that her husband is still living"
My heavens | had figured out a
thousand ways in which the boss might
get wised up to the dreadful truth,
but never anything like this; to have
1t dropped on him that way out of a
clear sky
For minute or two he didn't say
anything, but when he did speak,
saw that the truth wasn't going to
take hold.
"That is gossip. pure and simple,
Hornack. The Hendricks are my
friends. and / have been as intimate

OF drawing in his horns when he saw
how positive the boss was about IT.
I'm not beyond admitting that the
young woman who told me Is a little
inclined that way. But the story was
pretty circumstantial: it went SO far
as to assert that 'Macrae' wasn't Mrs.
Sheila's married name at all, and to
say that her long stay with her West
ern cousins was-and still is-really a
flight from conditions that were too
humiliating to be borne"

who said it." the boss cut In brusquely.

woman, and especially woman like

herself off as widow when she wasn't
one."

other hand, I've never heard the ma.
Jor. or any one else, say outright TINT
she was widow. 1t seems to be inst
taken for granted. 1t stirred me up
