Any poultry raiser can easily rid his flock
of lice and mites, make chickens grow faster
and increase their egg yield by simply add
ing minerals to the fowls drinking water.
This does away with all bother, such as
busting, greasing dipping and spraying. The

convenient tablets, known as Paratabs. Soon

THE NEW HAVEN DECISION.

The decision of Federal Judge Mayer that the New Haven road was entitled to and should have five directors on the board of the Boston & Maine road means the dealing with the former road In a spirit of justice that conforms with present day conditions.
 Inasnuch as the New Haven Is an owner of 2s per cent of the stock of the Boston & Maine 1t is only reasonable that t should be 50 represented on the board of directors that It's interests miEht be properly taken care of. Judge Mayer called attention to the fact that conditions are different today from what they were when the dissolution of the New Haven system was ordered. The rountry has undergone many changes and so has the rAilroad in question. In comparison with the road that it was hark In 1914 t Is hard to recognize 1t. It has certainly experienced hard times and during the period of government op- eration and since there has been an op- portunity to appreciate that pertain re- straints which were believed to be nec- sssary for the railroads were unjust.
 There Is such a thing as regulation and 1t Is possible to carry it to the point where 1t strangles. Judge Mayer well says that Congress, through it's new transportation act, has shown a tendency to regard interstate carriers as a broad problem and there has appear Cd a distinct belief that railroads arc governed by business conditions as well as other corporations.' and there can be nothing but commendation for his decision. which as he points out reflects that broad mindedness that is being fol. lowed In similar cases. AS to the lega right of the road to have the represen tat3on sought there was apparently lit lie question. In the opinion of the at torney general of Massachusetts 1t Is en titled to 1t.
 The decision is one that should ali the railroads in improving the railroat situation in New England. The Bostoi 6 Maine is a large feeder of the Nev Haven and the closer they can work to gsther in a legal way the better 1t fl going to bs for the transportation ser vsee and tho roads.

GROWTH IN 1921 EXPORTS
 TO GERMANY AND MEXICO

Germany and Mexico are the two principal countries of the world to which the United States increased the total value of her exports in 1921. This IS the more remarkable, Says the Trade Record of The National City Bank of New York, in view of the fact that export prices of a very large propor- ton of the articles forming that trade are much lower in 1921 than in 1920. In probably four-fifths of the articles sent to either of these countries the quantities show large increases over 1920 and the values of a very consid- eral advance, the total to Germany in the Il months ending with November, 1921, being $31b, 100000 against s255,- 0eO, 900 in the same months of 1920, and SIS, GOO 900 In the corresponding months of 1919, while to Mexico the total for the Ii months ending with November, 1921, is $210,000, 900 against $176, GOO, ,000 in the same months of 1920 and s11e- 000 900 in the corresponding months of 1913.
 To all the other important countries of the world the export totals of 1921 are much below those of the cores bonding months of 1920, the total to the United Kingdom being practical Iy one-helf that of the same months of 1920, to Belgium a fall of more than one-half in value, to Netherlands a fall of about 33 per cent. Canada a fall of about one third, to South Ameri- ca as a whole a reduction of approx imately one-half in total value, and to Asia a decline of approximately 40 per cent. most of these reductions oc- curing by reason of the lower prices of the merchandise sent to them.

Putting it another way Npital would be 30 pei

REsrRIor1Na pnLBoARps.

Many communities in their efforts to improve the appearance of the town have enacted ordinances for the elirni- nation or regulation of conditions that were found to be detrimental. One fight that seems to have accomplished excel lent results was against the habit of covering everything along the roadway with wooden and tin signs directing at tention to a raft of articles and rais- ing havoc with the otherwise good ap- ptarance of the countryside.
 Similar movements have been inaug- urated against the offending biilboards, and particularly where they were so placed as to become a detriment to ad- joining property. Results in this dlrec- tion are not all that have been asked for but g good start has been made and from time to time more cities are estab- fishing regulations restricting their size and location
 Springfield Is one of the latest cities 10 take action relative to billboards and under the ordinance which 1t has adopt ed 1t is provided that thera shall be nc 6iiiboards erected more than five feet in height and eight feet in length and the base of the board must be at least three and a hak feet above the grade of the street. All boards and signs within the fire limits of the city must be of fire. proof material. and except for the ad- vertlsing of the business of the corcerr occupying the building nothing but cleo. lrieal signs can be placed upon or above the roof of any building. Likewise il ls provided that no billboard, sign or other advertising device may be placed within 300 feet of or visible from tn, certain main approaches to the city ol la Gry street in a residential section. Th, penalty for the violation Is a fine O not more than sioe and it may be in creased to $500 f the violation Is con tinued for a certain time following con viction.
 It has been demonstrated that resi- dents of city have rights in connection with other nuisances which have devel oped and In view of some of the flag rant cases it is not surprising that bill boards have had to be put in much tn same class. Likewise public safety ha to get consideration.

The alternative therefore, while condl- tens are being given better safeguards Is to meeting in a sensible way the con ditions that exist, give proper attention to the danger points and heed the sig rals and warnings that are establish ed in the interest of safety
 Racing with trains to crossing, fall ing to respect the signs and signals. crashing through gates which are low cred to keep highway travel from a col lision. knocking down hagmen who are working for safety and the prevention of accidents have all been experienced by railroad men. It shows that deliber- ate disregard for safety measures re- ferred to by the Indiana engineer and tells in It's own tragic way the reason for many of the crossing fatalities There is a responsibility which highway users cannot wisely ignore. Taking chances when death Is liable to be tho result is not profitable or sensible.

TROLLEY RATES.

The decision of the public utilities commission upon the petitions from va- riuls cities of the state seeking a redDc- tion in the existing trolley fares indi- cates a disposition on the part of the tions that exist
 Better conditions are being experi- enced by the trolley lines because of the economies they have put into effect, low cred expenses and lower rates. The Connecticut company for the first time in several years seems to be showing a balance on the right side after paying all bills. This is gratifying in state where many miles of trolley lines have had to be abandoned and where there has been danger of many more going to the junk dealer, but it doesn't provide good and sufficient reason for ordering that trolley fares be returned to the rate prevailing before the war.
 There Ms nothing to prevent petitions being made for that purpose but such petitions have to be judged in accord with tlie facts as they exist Because the trolley lines are more than meeting expenses doesn't wipe out the deficit that was incurred during the war or meet the taxes which have not been paid to the state. It doesn't appear that the lines are as yet making an un- justified profit under the prevailing fare. That the earning will improve is not only expected but to be hoped. With the summer coming 1t is to be expected 1 that there will be much more travel but | the lines certainly need the benefit that will accrue therefrom and the sooner they get it the quicker will there come l the time when the public utilities com, mission can wisely direct reduction | in the fare rate.
 Because the Connecticut company ha. i It's head above water once more doesn warrant the taking of steps that will i'm
 nlediately plunge it under again. Ther,
 must be fair play and the commission so decides. Improved conditions and better business will hasten the day wheI the fare rate can be lowered again, Hoy
 great the Improvement is will deternin the amount of the reduction and wheth
 CT 1t will be wise to return to the nicke l in one or two cuts.

IGNORING SAFETY MBAsUREs.

Tn view of the many fatalities which have occurred at railroad crossings 1t Is not surprising that engineers, wheth- CT they have figured in such affairs or not, should give expression to their feelings regarding the way in which many users of highways which cross railroad tracks absolutely disregard the danger at such a point and invite too often the untimely end that is found there.
 An engineer of long service writing 10 an Indiana motor publication says 'T feel that we engineers have as much right to ignore our orders and messages with reference to meeting points and slow orders over bad tracks. as the mo- tor car driver has to ignore safety signs along the highways? Then what would you think of the notorist who not only ignores a red lantern in the road, but who as often as not gets out of his car or truck and picks that red lantern up and carries It away with him 1"
 While the ideal solution of the situa- ton is the elimination of the crossings. it is well known that such cannot be ex- voted for many years to come if ever.

IN THE PUBLIC EYE

Irving T. Bush, who has been chosen president of the Chamber of Commerce of the State of New York, is perhaps the best informed person in the world on terminal facilities, and operation of the same. A native of Michigan, and educated in the east, he was privileged in youth to tour the ocean, quite under conditions of comfort and leisure. See ing much of the harbors of the world, and their modes of handling traffic. he began comparative study of the same the results of which he tried to make known to New Workers during the years following his return. Finally. to make concrete what he had been teaching in the abstract, he secured a 200-acre site on the Brooklyn waterfront, and began the creation of harbor terminals and storehouses- The plant he erected Is 1nequaled In the world, including more than 100 warehouses, many piers, model lofts and industrial buildings and 200 manufacturing establishments

rHr REPUBn1oAN oAuoUs.

The caucus of the republicans for the selection of city ticket developed the interest and enthusiasm that should mean victory at the polls.
 In the selection of Charles H. Ricketts as candidate for mayor there is pre- scented to the electorate of the city a man of the highest standing, a man who cannot fail to appeal to all con SC ntious voters regardless of party, a man in whom the utmost confidence can De placed and a man who, if elected. will carry integrity, dignity and good Judgment to the post of chief executive of the city.
 It Is to be noted that the contest for ths nr imitation was not between men who sought the office but men whom the office sought They were ready to serve the city if the party desired. The con- test has shown the preference within the party by a substantial majority, and in keeping with the attitude of the loser in maktng the nomination unanimous it is expected that the contest will end with the caucus. and that the unusually large display of interest simply gives an in- dicati: of an increased interest in city affairs and foretells the party strength that can be expected on the fifth of June.
 For the remainder of the ticket both fer members of the council and for city l offices ecmmendable selections have been made Experience and ability are bound to be recognized by the voters who are insisting upon the best in the
 
 fairs. and coming as it does at time when Norwich has an opportunity to l still better municipal business by the adoption of a new charter, good and suf- fclent reason for an outpouring of re- publican voters at the city election is | furnished.

SUNDAY MORNING TALK
THE PEAoE oF Gon.

And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Phil. 4: 2.
 This peace is the highest and most strenuous action Of the soul, but an en- tire1y harmonious action in which all our powers and affection are blended into a beautiful proportion, and sustain and perfect one another. It is more than silence after storms. It is as the concord of all neIodious sounds; a season when, in the fullest flow of thought and feeling, m the universal action of the soul, an inward calm, profound as midnight si- Ience yet bright as the still summer noon, full of joy but unbroken by one thTob of tunlultuous passion is breathed through the spirit, and a glimpse and presage given of the serenity of a hap pier world. Of this character is the peace of religion. It is a conscious har- mony with God, surrender of every sep arate will and interest, a participation of the spirit and life of the universe an entire concord of purpose with its Infinite maker. Human nature has never lost sight of this great end It has always sighed for 8 repose in which energy of thought and will might be tempered with an an-pervadfng tranquility Is this the peace of God, this strange sweet calm?
 The Weary day is at it's zenith still; Yet Iris as if, beside some cool, clear Til,
 Through shadowy stiffness, rose an e7- ening psalm, And all the noise of life were hushed away,
 And tranquil gladness reigned with sooth ing sway.
 It is not that feel less weak, but Thor
 Will be my strength it is not that set Les sin, but there is pardoning low with Thee,
 And all-sufficient-grace, enough ant now
 I do not think or pray; I only res 1 And feel that Thou are near, and know that I am blest.

 The war and it's aftermath left us with an enormous departure from the old relation of producers price to con sailner's price writes Herbert Hoover, secretary of commerce, in The Magazine of Wall Street. The costs of production are not so much more than they were but the consumers prices are, even now, after considerable readtustment, from 30 to 50 per cent-in some commodities even IS to 100 per cent-nore than formerly-1nore than in 1913. If the 1913 relation of production and con sumption price was fair, 1t is evident that we now have an enormous distor< tfon. That distortion bears heavily on the producer and the consumer. One or the other must bear the brllat of the load. The attainment of normality In trade and Tn economic lire depends up- on the reduction of the price distortion.
 Now, during thz last seven years we have added about 08,o0o,0ee to our
 total annual tax bill in these United
 States. If you put the annual national production at $50 900, ,0e9, ,e0o, it is pos
 sible to calculate At once that taxation
 accounts for at least twenty units out
 of the abnormal spread with which we
 have to deal
 The more of these units you can eIfnl-
 mate the nearer you bring the cost of commodities to the consumer into line with the return to the producer. If you can't bring the two costs into close ap- proximation of their old relation, we
 shall, not tot mention other groups, re-
 duce our agriculture population to the status of the European peasant The only real hope of attaining that end, that I can see, is the elimination of
 wastes, not only in production, but in distribution.
 It is 8 problem of industry in the group or mass. There lies the real hope l of establishing the lost economic bal ance In the United States. Every econ 1 oTaist realizes that.
 Take the case of the seventy kinds of bricks reduced to seven. Each of a thousand brick works might be econom- l ically considered Individually, but the in- i dnstry as a whole was wasteful because l it was wasting time, enerpv. capital | storage and material in mixing so many different models of bricks. Obvi- oisIy, no manufacturer could make such a reduction by himself and hope to sur i vive in competition.
 l A larger example of the general prob. l lem of simpllfcation lies in the effort 1 of the railways toward standard dimen- l sions of cars.
 1 The elimination of wastes Of that kind
 are important. but they are small com pared with some others. Take the pres.
 ent labor waste of twU or three million l idle men, or the waste at times flow. 1 ing from purposeIy restricted effort. I is one of the most fearful wastes that
 can come to us. Labor once lost Is los forever. It involves dealing with tn, l effects of the great business cycles witt a view to relieving their intensity. IT l prosperous times we not only increas, l the production of confunable goods, bu we increase the facilities of their pro
 duction. We mt+it well conserve lahol by deferring plant extension to period when the demand to hold back the larg CT operations on great public utilities
