COM .WHITTLESEY BEFORE


A very interesting and instructive
Farm Bureau meeting was hsld at Wa
terford on Monday night at the a. o. U.
W. hall. At that time Professor J. S.
Owens discussed fertilizers and crops
which would be of interest to the aver
age dairy farmer He was followed by
Commissioner Whittlesey and a large
part of the evening was given up to
discussion by the commissioner on the
tuberculin test in its relation to the av-
erage dairyman and to the public Com
missioner Whittlesey pointed out that in
1894 a compulsory tuberculin law was
put through the Connecticut legislature
and did more to create antagonism
against the test than any other move
could have done. So strong was the
feeling that this law was rescinded IN
the next legislature and from then on
until 1911 no action was taken to errad-
icate tuberculosis from the herds in this
state except by physical examination.
The physical examination for tubercu-
losis is practically worthless as only gen
eralized ca es of the disease can be de-
tected in this way and often times the
disease has done its work long before
this. Such a method allows COWS in
the mild stages Of the disease to stay
in the herd. produce milk, often times
which is lntected and also allows these
animals to infect others In the same
herd. oftentlmes injecting every COW in
the herd. In 1894 only 5000 to 1000
animals were tested; about Il per cent
| of tuberculosis was found

ROUND Up OF QUANTITY OF CLOTH
STOLEN FROM NORWICH BLEACHERY

Trumontezzi admitted to Officer John H.
Kane that about 40 yards of cloth had
been brought to her by Peruzzo. Y. P.
o. Quinn was the attorney for the ae-
cused
The arrest Of Peruzzo was made as he
was coming out of work at the bleach
cry Wednesday, morning about s o'clock.
Capt. John P. Newell of the Watts de-
teetive agency of Boston, who had work.
ed up the cases, was on hand at the
mill with Sergeant Kane, Officers John
Carroll and Peter Driscoll, and Raymond
B. Sherman representing the United
States Finishing Co. AS the man was
suspected of carrying cloth out of the
min, he was searched but nothing was
found on him. A visit was then made
to his house by the Officers who found
the cloth in various parts of the house.
Later the Franklin street home of the
man and woman was visited. A large
quantity of cloth was found there but all
could not be identified aus coming from
the bleachery.
The work was part of the activity of
the Mercantile Protective service, organ
lied and protected by the Watts detec-
tive agency of Boston, which is pushing
the work of putting a stop to larcencies
and wilful destruction of property In
manufacturing establishments.

The interesting topic, The Way of
Salvation, was discussed at the Y. NJ.
c. A. Mems Bible class Wednesday eve
ming. and the men present became
greatly interested. Some of the thoughts
developed were as follows: The man
yet unconverted cannot understand the
meaning of the Christian life. Reforma-
ton Is not conversion; joining church
in itself does not make man Chris
tian, The only persons who really know
what conversion is are those who have
experienced it. and It is their solemn
duty to try in tactful ways to lead 9TH
ers into the Christian life.
The foundation rock of salvation Is
found in what Jesus told Nicodemus
eye must be born again" This differs
with reformation in that it is something
a man cannot do for himself, though he
has certain duty to perform; he must
be willing. The new birth is necessary
because the natural mind is at enmity
with God The natural man Is, as It
were. intellectually blind to the things
of the spirit In the new birth God i'm
parts to us his own nature; there Is
henceforth a new ownership, where pre-
viously VIC did as we pleased, now we
recognize that I'VE are not our own, we
are bought with a price" My life has
new direction and the things that 1
once loved, now l cease to love them.
It is just as possible for me to know
that we have the spiritual life as It is
for us TO know that we have physical
life, The love life is the Christ life,
and there is really no such thing as a
selfish Christian, :.
