CONCRETE IS KING

It is not necessary for one to have a knowledge of the fundamentals of road building to make choice be- tween the various forms of construc- tion used, nor, need one necessarily be an owner of an automobile. Choice of construction implies either a knowledge of the cost, wearing qualities, etc, or through observa- tion, the adaptability. and convent ence, as we'll as the life, of the form of construction considered to be the best. That concrete is held in high favor is borne out from observations, discussionslan and the ever increasing number of miles of this type of high way being, constructed in various parts of the country. ~ > To the north of us, in the town of Great Burlington, four-mile stretch of concretef has merited the admira- tion of autoists and won the plaudits of farmers Ifwho hauled produce to market. This section of highway was constructed during a x, period when the use of concrete for such purposes was in the experimental stage, yet it has withstood every conceivable attack of the elements and every form of vehicle. Even though not reinforced it has cracked so little that it is still considered one of the best pieces of improved highway in this section.
 There are many reasons why con- crete is preferred to other forms of construction. From a sanitary standpoint, it is highly desirable. Visualize concrete from curb to curb on our Main street. Little or no dust would be raised by passing cars and the little refuse that collects would be washed away by the first shower, leaving a clean, hard surface that would add to the appearance of out town. When snow comes, and with it slush, its removal is simple. Spring rains hold no terror, for their ability to turn a perfectly good road into sea of mud has vanished with the advent of concrete.
 Of it's multiplicity of uses, con- crete for road construction has prov en it's value to an extent that cannot be underestimated. Every mile con- structed of this material means lower taxes and a permanent pavement that will be useful for many years to come.

been most admirably filled by Sheriff Turkington. No other nomination could have been made. This also applies to Congressman Glynn, he said, as those who visited Washing ton. on business we'll knew. Senator Mclean also must go back. Temple ton must be elected, as we'll as the entire ticket. Prom this gathering, said MT. Nickerson, "take the thought with you that we must carry on the splendid principles of the Republican party"
 The last speaker was Miss Nichols, of New Milford, who said that from the advice given by experienced politicians, it would seem that the women should \not forget their party imanners.
 Sheriff Turkington shen invited all who wished to come for a sight seeing trip about the town.

remuneration is small as a whole, all things considered, and the amount of criticism so great at times that the position is anything but desirable. Many times after strenuous efforts and argument fail, cajolery is re- sorted to that the ticket may be filled. Furthermore, the community being so small that it's needs are known to some extent by all at heart the people have but one desire to see the most capable person elected.
 In cities where large number of men and women are available for public office and the compensation commensurate with the duties, it is more often that the man seeks the office. The qualifications of the office-seeker are known to but com paratively few and political leaders are relied upon to use both judgment and discretion in choosing of their following.
 Politics are vital necessity to the country. They may be eliminated to an extent in small towns, but the opinion seems to be general that it requires one political party to keep the other Saving wood" in an industrious, honest manner .

 "That the Selectmen be authorized to borrow the sum of $6,OO0, or such part thereof as may be necessary, to defray cost of cement highway ap- propriation, and that Tax be laid of one mill each year for four years, the proceeds of which shall be ap- piled on the Cement Highway in- debtedness."
 On motion by J. c. Roraback it was voted that Allyn Fuller, J. L.. Parsons and E. L. Roberts be ap- pointed a committee of three to CO., operate with the state and selectmen to see that the new road was con- sructed as desired.
 It was voted to lay Article 8 on the table. It was also voted to take up one Railroad Bond as has been the. custom in previous years. No further " business remaining the meeting adjourned. \,

NON-PARTISAN ELECTIONS

According to member of a com mittee appointed by Governor Lake some time ago, legislation will be sought whereby politics will be elim- mated from all town elections. Sena- tor Bowers, of Manchester, states that the committees report will be submitted to the next legislature, though as yet no definite recommen- dations had been decided upon.
 The non-partisan election for cities and towns'is the most modern meth cd and the one which is being adopt ed everywhere, says Senator Bowers. Presumably so, yet there is at,~least one town that has taken no direct action for the institution of such methods yet the plan seems to work mechanically by silent consent. Such we believe is the politiesl situation in regard to town election in, North Canaan. The best men available are chosen at caucuses and vo9ften rare endorsed by one political, paFtYE or the other to ensure their election.
 Certainly for the smaller towns this method has it's advantages, but how it would work out in cities like Hartford or New Haven,z is a matter for contemplatfonss In the small town material for town officials is scarce, from the standpoint. of those who will servethat Aave;ths ability. The

TWO CROPS ON SAME
LAND THE SAME YEAR

(By E. r. Lloyd and G. w. Watson.)
The small grain will soon be ready
to harvest and the land is available
for other crops This land will be
easily prepared for COW peas. soy
beans, Sorghum and peanuts, broad
cast or planted in drill
To raise a hay crop the land should
be thoroughly disced and the beans,
peas or sorghum should be sown
broadcast as follows: Cow peas,
/ IL to 2 bushels per acre; soy beans,
| to 2 bushels per acre; sorghum,
2 bushels per acre.
If the crops are planted in drill in
30-inch rows the following amounts to
be used: Cow peas, one-half bushel
per acre; soy beans, one-half bushel
per acre; sorghum early Amber or
0rangel 10 pounds per acre; peanuts
Spanish variety two bushels per
acre.
1t is highly advisable to sow broad
cast for hay, but if planted for seed
and hay. then the crop should be
raised by planting in drill in 30-inch
rows.
We need hay and there is no bet
ter way of raising a hay crop than
utilizing the land after oats. wheat
or barley, and there is no better hay
than COW peas, soy beans and sorg-
hum. any of which makes splendid
hay if cut at proper time.
Let's have hay this year and quit
depending on the out-of-state crop
that takes our cotton money, which
should be used to pay our debts.

KILLS HIGHWAYMAN

Mr.. A. O. Proctor, proprietor of &
lunch stand in Memphis, shot anC
killed Algernon Sydney Doss, ageC
Is, early Sunday morning, when the
latter attempted to hold up Proctor
who was prepared with an Anticipated
but efficient pistol up his sleeve, anC
fired as the circle Of Doss' pisto
muzzle outlined a vital spot on his
breast.
Mr.. Proctor is we'll known in Gov,
ington and Upton county, and is a
brother of Mr.. R. A. Proctor, Of this
city, and Mr.. Rosco Proctor, of Bur
lison, and also a son-in-law Of
Mr. George Hurts, a local merchant
The opinion is expressed by police
officers that DOss was killed in his
first attempt at highway robbery
No highwayman answering his de-
scription has been operating recently
and his pistol was almost new. Rela.
tives did not know he possessed a
pistol.
Doss stepped from behind the
breast-high curb Of driveway near
the Proctor home as the restaurant
man and his wife were returning with
the days receipts, approximately $50
"Hey," he shouted. His pistol was
poised and a handkerchief covered
the lower part of his face.
Proctor slipped his pistol from his
sleeve with lightning speed and fired
two shots. He pulled the trigger
twice again but the cartridges failed
to explode. 1t was pure chance that
the first cartridge exploded, as the
weapon, .38 calibre owl head" car
ried the charge placed in it eight
years ago.
Without an attempt to shoot, Doss
whirled and fled, falling a block
away, on Looney avenue, stone dead
His pistol was at his side, the hand
kerchief mask twisted from the
mouth and hanging loosely around
the neck.
Neighbors Immediately summoned
the police and a record run was made
in the riot car, The police found
Proctor and his wife in the crowd
which had gathered around the body
Mr.. and Mrs. Proctor were taken
to headquarters, where they were
questioned. No charge was made
and a verdict of iustifiable homicide
was returned by a coroner's jury
impanelled by ESQ. N. 7. Ingram.
Doss is understood to have promi-
nent family connections in Missis-
sippi. The young man was employed
as a clerk in an Arrow Food store
near Overton Park His habits were
regular, his companions Of good rep-
utation and friends are at a loss to
account for the manner of his death

WORK YOUR STRAWBERRIES

The practice Of letting the berries
go the second and third year and
reapinE the profits without work is
an idea that seems to prevail in our
county, says County Agent Holdings
worth, who has been connected in
different ways with the strawberry
business for IL years and has watch
ed closely the cultivation and hand
ling of this crop in four different
states, in number Of communities
in each state, and this is the only
shipping district he has seen where
the crop was allowed to fight it out
with the grass and weeds.
The practice most generally used
in the berry fields after the picking
season is over is to NOW the patch
clean, if dry, and the weather and
wind are favorable, the patch can be
raked and then burned If the fire will
travel fast enough to move over the
patch in short while. If burning is
not done after moving and raking, if
the patch is on the level, the side of
the old rows are barred off with
ona-horsel turning Low, leaving a
row about six or eight inches wide.
This hoed clean. A shovel pillow is
then used in the middle, throwing the
dirt back to the berries. This gives
fresh loose dirt to the runners to set
new plants. 1t is the plant that is
set now in the next few weeks that
is going to produce the most and
best fruit next year. If the berries
are grown on a high ridge, shovel
Flow in the middle of the ridge to
tear out the old mother plants can be
used, the same shovel used between
the rows in the middles, one or two
burrows to the row A good harrow
ing then and the runners will have
fresh, loose dirt to set the new plants
on If the berries are cultivated
I throughout the growing season, keep
ling the middle clean, the berries will
be in rows with a clean middle for
the pickers to walk in. With the use
of stakes and numbers at the end Of
the rows and plenty Of field men on
the Job in the patch, the trouble Of
soft and over-ripe berries that will
not hold up on long shipment will
practically be eliminated.
What will your cotton and corn
make if you leave it to fight it out
with the grass and weeds on the
hard ground? This question Of work
ing berries has been argued pro and
con over the entire county ever since
berries were first grown here, and
we know it sounds much better to
hear one say YOU will make just as
much out Of them if you don't work
them out, but trip to the district
where the berries are worked as a
garden would, or rather should be
worked, mulched in the winter with
wheat straw and carefully picked,
graded and packed properly, would
change most ardent enthusiasts of
the no-work system, says Mr. Hol-
lingsworth.
