FACTORY CLOSED.

Such a notice in large town is of great portent to the people affected, for it forecasts that which is commonly called "hard times" To a community such as this it is not of so much importance and yet the effect is the same, only being felt in lesser degree.
 Word has come, of an indefinite nature, that the local branch of the Union Hardware Co.,, will close about July 1st, much to the regret of townspeople generally. The little factory has been here about two years and was, we thought, the nucleus for something bigger and better. Something of a permanent nature that would help our town to grow while it served the capitalists interested in the enterprise. It is now apparent that the branch was simply opened as solution of the labor problem existing at that time elsewhere. The crisis now having passed and operation longer being more costly than necessary, the plant will be removed to the main factory at Torrington. .-..... .a
 With the many natural advantages of which this town can boast, we cannot understand why it is impos- sible to attract the attention of other industries. Our railroad facilities are the best; desirable factory sites are available and it seems that fully one hundred men and women can be employed almost immediately.
 This or any other town cannot grow rapidly without the assistance of agencies other than agricultural. We are sorry the factory we have is to close, yet the experience we have gained since it has been in operation should make us all try still harder to secure another.

AMATEURS SHOULD PLAY FAIR
Radio Inspector Schmidt Urges That They Learn the Laws and
 Regulations.

Nine out of every ten radio fans arc good sports, but the tenth is either 8 fan with poor judgment or "rotter." It is up to the amateurs to see that restrictions are not imposed upon them, by playing fair, says Radio In spector L.. R. Schmidt of the Ninth district.
 This can be done by\ observing cer- tain cautions and by becoming posted on the radio laws and regulations. A copy of these regulations may be ob- tained from the superintendent of doc uments, government printing office, Washington, D. C., for 15 cents. It is worth while to spend 15 cents In order to be a square shooter in the radio game.
 The great trouble with amateurs Is that when they want to send a mes sage around a corner they put on all the power they have with the hope that some one in Texas might pick up their message. The object should be to use the minimum amount of power 70 get the message to its destination.
 NIn all circumstances, except in case of signals or radiograms relating to vessels in distress, all stations shall use the minimum amount of energy necessary to carry out any communi- cation desired"
 Amateurs should keep their wave length to POO meters.
 They should use a "pure wave" or, as the regulations state, If the send ing apparatus is of such a character that the energy Is radiated in two or more wave lengths, more or less sharp ly defined, as indicated by a sensitive wave meter, the energy in no one of the lesser waves shall exceed 10 per centum of that in the greater" .t The wave must be sharp" AS to this the regulations state: At all sta tions the logarithmic decrement per complete oscillation in the wave trains emitted by the transmitter shall not exceed two-tenths when sending dis tress signals or signals and messages relating thereto"
 Amateurs frequently are at fault In calling stations too often. The law states that they can call three times, send sd e" once and sign their station call three times; but often the anna teurs will send the calls a dozen or more times.

THE TENT CATERPILLAR

Reports from various parts of the state would indicate that the tent caterpillar is again on the increase. Numerous nests of vermin may be seen in and around our own town which gives weight to the reports and forces upon us the realization that immediate action is necessary to keep the pest under control.
 The Boy Scouts, here and else where, have done notable work in years past by destroying large num- bers of the nests before the cater pillars were grown. Their work has been of inestimable value to farmers, who assisted the boys materially. Now there is another opportunity for the boys, whether scouts or not, to organize cross-country hikes and be of real assistance to the state by destroying the nests of tent-cater- pillars.
 The method usually used is to apply torch of cloth or waste soak ed in kerosene. But before this is done on any property it would be advisable to consult the owner, who will be ready and willing to CO., operate when the purpose is made known.

A ONE MAN TOWN.

A travelling man sold some goods to the proprietor of a general store in small town. When the mer- chandise arrived it was not up to sample and was returned. The house drew a sight draft on the merchant through the local bank, which was returned. The letter asking the Postmaster about the financial stand ing of the merchant was returned by the Government Official marked 70. K."e The house wrote the post master to secure lawyer to collect the amount and received this reply
 The undersigned is the merchant on whom you tried to palm off your worthless goods. The undersigned is owner and president of the bank, which sent back your sight draft. The undersigned is the Postmaster whom you wrote and the undersigned is the lawyer you sought to obtain for your fake business.

There is more or less talk about town to the effect that the trolley is wanted here again. It's going to take more than talk to get it here. While the proposition of the trolley com pany to reopen the line merely as an experiment is not altogether sat- isfactory, one often has to take less than they want. It seems certain that if the trolleys are running to this town again it will be more diff cult than before to stop them. Let's get them started and worry about their stopping when the proper time comes.

The Lasso this year is greatly i'm proved and contains a large number of contributions that abound in wit and humor. The advertising pays for only a part of the cost and it is hoped every one will buy copy to defray expenses incurred and to en- courage those who are responsible for it's publication.
