PUTNAM

The contested divorce case of Mrs. Marjorie Potter vs c. Allison Potter, both of North Woodstock came to a sud- den and dramatic climax in the midst of taking the testimony before Judge hris- topher Avery in the Windham county su- perior court in Putnam Thursday when, after an hour on the stand, during which she related sor1id details of her married life. Mrs. Potter broke down and in an- swer to a question from Attorney William King of Willimantic as to her present at titude toward her husband. she declared pathetically 'I love him"
 The case has attracted much attention 1 in this section of the county because of the prominence of the parties involved, and the court room was filled with wit nesses and neighbors of the couple Mrs. Potter was represented by Attorney Charles Torrey of Putnam. and Mir. Pot ter by Attorney William King of Willi- mantle and Attorney Henry D. Montague of Southbridge, Mass.
 Conferences between attorneys and the parties in the case occupied over an hour when court opened and it was nearly noon when the taking of evidence began.
 The testimony of Mrs. Potter was given in a faint voice, and it was evident that she was suffering from great emotional | strain Many times she wept When her l final admission that she loved her hus- | band came there was a furry in the court room and those present experienced a l dramatic scene that is rarely met with except behind the footlights.
 Mrs. Potter was the first witness to go on the stand, and she was examined by Attorney Torey. She testified that she has been married a. little over Is years and that except for few months spent in Elliotts she has lived all of this time in the town of Woodstock. She has been on the present farm in North Woodstock for seven years. Four children, witness declared, have been born to her and her husband, of which the oldest is now II and the youngest 6.
 Attorney Torrey, after this introductory
 material, launched directly into questions concerning the 14 specific allegations o1
 cruelty included in the petition for di- vorce. These 14 cover a period of nearly three years. Witness testified that the trouble between her and her husband
 had it's beginning little over three years
 ago, when on one occasion she found hin fin a compromising situation with his cousin" The cousin referred to, it was
 later developed in the testimony, was g
 15 year old girl, a second cousin of MT

Get Credit by Deserving it-Deversi
fication is the Key.

How far do you devote your ener-
gies to raising single crop; or a
more important question, how far
do you diversity your farming by
giving attention to the raising Of
foodstuffs for your family and feed
for your animals: If you have a
garden and raise enough vegetables
and fruit to supply the family needs,
if you keep enough poultry, pigs and
other livestock to meet the require
ments of your household for eggs,
meat, milk and butter, if you pro-
vide enough pasture, hay and fodder
to feed your livestock, you have this
advantage that when the cash crop,
whether cotton or something else, is
ready for sale in the fall, it is not
tied up with a liep to meet a sea-
sons advance for food or feed. You
are in position, therefore, to sell this
cash crop whenever the marketing
conditions are favorable. Your
relatively favorable position will as
sist you materially in commanding
the confidence of those who have
money to lend.
On the other hand, consider the
farmer who grows only one crop,
who comes to town and makes credit
purchases of bacon, cornmeal, "a
canned goods for table use, and who
goes back to his farm with bale of
hay or sack of feed in his wagon
box. The only enterprise on his
farm is cotton or tobacco growing,
and his crop is mortgaged in advance
to supply the food and feed purchased
in town and consumed on the farm.
He has little credit at the bank. He
gets a limited store credit on an ad-
vancing basis from a local merchant.
His is the most expensive kind of
credit and probably he is the farmer
who is least able to pay for it.

vented by properly storing and fumi-
eating with a gas called carbonbiSul-
phide, which can be purchased at
drug stores in liquid form. A pint
can costs about forty cents and is
enough to fumigate about four bar
rels of corn.
After. the barrels are in position
and the ears of corn have been plac-
ed carefully in them, pour about one
fourth of a pint of the liquid carbon
bisulphide over the corn in each bar
rel. The liquid forms gas when It
comes in contact with the air, and it
is necessary that the barrel be tight
so that the gas will not leak out
through the cracks. Spread corn
sack over the top of the barrel and
on this place good board or tin
cover Weight down the cover with a
heavy rock or brick so that the rats
and mice will be kept out. Pick a
clean warm day on which to do the
fumigating.
This gas can be used by any farm
er, but there is one thing he must
be careful about. There must be no
fire near, not even a lighted pipe,
cigarette, or latern, for the gas will
explode on coming in contact with
fire.
Leave the corn in the barrels until
next spring, looking after it OCCASION
ally to see that it is not being dis
turbed.

Care of Seed Corn.

No doubt many farmers have gone
over their fields this fall and care
fully selected good seed corn for next
years planting. They should now
be interested to know how the corn
can best be cared for until planting
time next spring.
Seed corn, before it is stored away,
should be thoroughly dry. If it is
stored damp it is likely to mold or
freeze. It should never be placed In
or about damp place, such as near a
we'll or old cellar.
A good way to keep seed corn is
to place it in good tight boxes or
barrels. Flour an a1sbes
make good contal barrels
should be pisced IRE the air is
dry and circulates freely. Such a
place is usually found in the barn
loft.
Corn weevils, rats and mice are
the worst enemies of seed corn. DAM
age from these pests can be pre-

Get Poultry Winter Quarters in Read
mess.

The fall and winter months are ap-
preaching and it is very important
and necessary that each and every
poultryman be certain that the houses
lin which the pullets and hens
have to live are properly fixed. We
can not expect the birds to give us
the best if we do not provide suita-
BILE environmental conditions. The
poultry house should be so con-
structed that we can obtain plenty OF
sunlight in the entire house some
time during the day. Then again it
should be sanitary, for if the birds
become sick, their vitality is lower
ed and it will be impossible for them
to produce eggs economically.
Some of the other needs of proper
housing are the following: there
should be no moisture in the house,
for if there is, disease is bound to
arise; there should be plenty OF
ventilation but the birds should not
be subjected to drafts; to keep the
health and vigor up to a maximum
there should be plenty of room fol
the birds to exercise. The house
should not be kept too hot or allow
ed to become too cold, for either will
throw the birds out o. condition
which will result in low egg yield
Now is the time to put the poul-
try house in an ideal condition. II
should be thoroughly disinfected and
cleaned, and should have plenty OF
clean litter on the floor. This lit
ter is necessary for it is in this way
that we induce the birds to exercise
by feeding the grain mixtures in it.
The nests are very important
part of the house equipment. The
hen likes a dark secluded place in
which to lay her eggs. With this in
view the nests should be located un-
der the dropping boards. There
should be clean dry straw in the
nests and it should be kept clean if
the hens are to produce good clean
eggs.
In short, CHEEKY, clean, dry san
itary, well ventilated, well Uttered
houses mean dividends in the form
of larger supply of eggs.

WHY ALIENS SHOULD
BE REGISTERED.
Noted Criminal Chaser Supports La
Dor Department lmmigra-
ton Restriction.
capital News Service. }

Washington, Nov. 13.-Shortly after
uncovering the nucleus to world
wide plot for revolution, with head
quarters in this country, and many
"red" workers engaged therein, Will
liam j. Burns, chief IF the national
bureau of investigation, said:
"There is no objection, of course,
to people coming to our shores from
foreign lands if they follow peace
full pursuits, but we need more strin-
gent laws to deal with radical agita-
tors. Under the provisions of the
bill fostered by Mr.. Davis, registra-
ton would drive undesirables out of
our country. An examination, fair
and thorough, would deal severe
blow to radical agitators who try to
sow seeds of disscnsion. Although
the facilities at our command are be-
ing applied effectively at the present
time, the plan embodied in the pro-
posed law would greatly facilitate
our work."
Many officials in the government
who have hitherto looked with doubt
upon the plan to make Americas vel
come to the foreigner less, cordial, are
coming to agree with the Department
of Labor that there is nothing in the
proposed registration of aliens which
is either a hardship upon the regis
terers, or a great tax upon the gov
ernment. It is pointed out that a
nationwide registration Of the young
men of the country was accomplish
ed in one day for the purposes OF
raising a draft army, and without
any great expense. The men who
registered, it is noted, did not protest
or regard it as other than patriotic
duty.
The law compelling registration OF
all aliens, and supervision over their
activities, will not only, if passed,
serve to keep "red' agitators out of
the country, but will enable the gov
eminent to keep absolute check upon
those who remain here withuot being
interested enough to become citizens,
and those who make a whole hearted
effort to become real Americans.

A Days Work May Pay S25; Spend
it Picking Seed Corn.
Do ysu think a salary of S25 day
would tempt you to Work harder or
for longer time?
This is what you may make BY
spending from one to five or SIX
days selecting and caring for your
seed corn. Good seed corn means at
least s25 to $50 more money for the
average farm next year. If every
corn grower in South Carolina would
select seed corn carefully it would
mean a large increase in the states
wealth. Selection in the field may
develop a variety that natures well,
grows on a good stalk, and yields
more grain in proportion to the to-
tai weight.
1t will pay every corn grower to
select his seed corn early this fall.

Pig Skins and Steer Hides Best Grain
Sacks on the Farm.

Pig skins and steer hides are the
best grain sacks man can nave on
the farm. War does not keep a pig
from making a hog of himself. War
does not keep a COW from giving
milk nor a hen from laying eggs.
The only safe way to success
against unfavorable markets, oppos-
ing climatic conditions and destruc-
tive insect life, is to have something
to sell every week in the year. The
way to do this is to grow grass for
pastures, soy beans, cowpeas, velvet
beans, peanuts, and alfalfa for hay
corn, oats and wheat for grain; have
some COWS, a few steers, pigs and
chickens and we will prosper and be-
come independent. This system spells
success for us no matter who we are
or where we live.

Crop Rotation has Many Advantages.

Crop rotation is the foundation on
which permanent agriculture is built.
Below are six reasons why the one
crop system is unsafe and why it
should be abandoned and diversified
farming practiced:
1. Because the system depends
, upon the market and crop conditions
affecting the one crop alone; failure
of either brings serious disaster.
2. Because it does not provide for
the maintenance of soil fertility.
8. Because it does not provide a
sufficient live stock industry to con-
sumo the waste products of the farm
and make its waste lands productive.
4. Because it does not provide for
a system of farm management under
which labor, teams and tools may be
used to the fullest advantage.
5. Because it brings returns in
cash but once year thereby fostering
a ruinous credit system.
6. Because it does not produce the
necessary foods to supply the people
upon the farm.

5. The corn crop is fed in the field
where grown, thus. the plant food
contained in the crop is, to a large
extent, returned to the soil.
6. The manure produced by the
hogs is evenly scattered over the land.

Some Advantages of Hogging-off Corn
l. More pork is produced from the
corn crop.
2. Rapid and economical gains are
made by hogs.
8. Labor and expense are saved in
harvesting and marketing the corn
crop.
II 4. Crib space is saved because corn
that is hogged-off does not have to
be stored.
