TEXTILE INDUSTRIES MAKE
 SHORTAGE IN FARM HA

Increasing demand for all classes of labor in textile centers is producing troublesome problems. for farmers and dairy men who are trying to fill the de- mand for milk from the Providence and Boston markets. It was stated Tuesday when reports were discussed that an ad- vance in milk prices would probably be asked, effective December l. Hundreds of farmers in Eastern Connecticut. Rhode Island and Southern Connecticut are said to be- unable to get farm hands" because men they had have gone to the villages to work in the cot ton mills. Farmers say that when their help leaves it does not return except in periods of depression. A year ago hun dreds of men looked for work on farms and in dairies. Scarcely any apply for work now. They are in the mills at high CT wages and shorter hours. .--- Throughout this section farmers pre- dict smaller herds of milch cows this winter, and leSs acreage next spring. Ali farm products are said to be on ris- ing scale. Eggs are quoted at s1 a dozen on farms and all sorts of winter kept vegetables are offered at higher prices.

NORWICH POULTRY. CLUB
 REPORTS ON YEARS RECORDS

The Norwich Poultry club. organized by the Farm Bureau a year ago held meeting at the Farm Bureau office Men- day evening and summarized the rec ords which have been kept during the past year Six members of this club completed their records. The best re- turns which were reported from, over and above feed cost were s4.62 while the 1 lowest returns per bird went down to $1SS. The size of the fiocks kept by l the members varied from 195 birds to l.. t015. The egg production per bird va ried from 99 eggs up to 1S4 eggs.t l Professor R. E. Jones from the Con necticut Agricultural college, who was i present at the meeting compared the records of the Norwich Poultry club with | the records of several other poultry clubs in the state and it was very con-
 clusively brought out that feed prices paid through the cooperative exchanges 1 in New London county are considerably
 lower than the prices paid for, feed by
 members of other clubs who are not in | cooperative exchanges or who are not living in localities in which cooperative exchanges are trying to keep the level of feed prices down.. The average price paid per 100 pounds of feed during the year varied from $177 to $1S5 white 2! in club of II poultrymen who have car ried through records during the past year. around Wallingford, the price per 100 pounds of feed paid by these poultry nlen in this section runs from $1.92 which was the lowest to S2.17. \ Most of the men paid between $2.05 and $2.10 per 100 pounds which puts the price an av- evage of around s per ton more in that section than in New London county where the Farm Bureau has been so sc- tive in organizing cooperative exchang- es.
 | From the records kept it was pointed
 out that as far as the poultrymen are concerned, Norwich is a very poor place
 to sell eggs at wholesale. The price ir
 this city is on the average considerably
 behind the market price of eggs in tht
 larger cities.
 Professor Jones summarized the year
 work of the club something as follows
 That the one outstanding factor in secur
 ing good return in the poultryman'
 business isS high egg production. Il
 ipractically all of the records which h knows of in tie state, high egg produc tion, has gone hand in hand with goo return in the poultry business while loy egg production has meant a mediocre o } poor return on. poultry. Three factors 0 . considerable value are to be sure of : reasonably good market for the egg: s reasonable feed prices and while the reC n ords do not show this very conclusive e ly. early matching is pretty essentia
 Two of the poultrymen in this count! : upon being questioned, Mir. Fellows an . Mir. Kanahan! stated that they planne l ito get out their early chickens next yea e in February and March.

NORWICH TOWN

Tho beautiful Gilman estate situated un upper Washington street, and over looking Lowtkorpe Meadows, the gen. erous gift of the Gilman family to the bowthorSe Association, of Norwich Town s now the home of MT and Mis-. George Houghton Gilman, formerly of New York city, and MT. and Mrs. Francis Gilman. formerly of Tarrytown.
 At the rear of the quaint old mansion. portion of the large barn has been, transformed into fine pen and fly coop by Francis Gilman, for his handsome flock of Homer pigeons, he having re- sently purchased 25 pair from the Plymouth Rock Squab company of Mel rose Highlands. Mass This fine lot of birds are pedigreed stock, being bred from original Antwerp (Belgian) stock. The Homers are considered the best for breeding and it is the desire of MT, Gilman to raise 100 pair The imported Belgium pigeons when purchased bring high price The birds bred from this strain sell for about one-half thes original price per pair. It is the nature of the female bird to lay two eggs and after I7 days they hatch The male bird does his part of the work in matching the young. generally sitting on the nest in the day time from 10 in the morning un- til about 1 o'clock in the afternoon
 
 and sits through the night hours. When the young are first matched the parent birds feed them with pigeon milk for about four days then by degrees they are fed more solid food until they are weaned, about six weeks later.
 The Homer pigeons are from the Rock pigeons which originally lived on the rocky sea coast of Belgium They have often been known to fly T5 miles in FVra.- age of 10 or 12 years and are constant- ly bred up to this time
 The dimensions of the pen are 8 by feet, with a flying coop on the out side by 12 feet. The interior of the bird house is constructed with one-ouar- ter inch plaster board. Individual percl- ss are placed in various locations in- side the pen and there also are 4S nest plates called nappies Two nest plates pr nappie9 are placed in each box there being 24 hest boxes in all, as in about two weeks the birds begin to mate again. Each pair of pigeons produce from seven To nine pair of suuabs year. Their feed consists of corn, wheat, etc, in a mixture made ub it is generally used tbree parts of corn to one of wheat.
 The ay coop Is situated on the south side Of the builcing, a moot ideal spot eSpSsed to the sun most of the day There is a running spring of water al. go bath tubs for the birds to bathe in which affords an Interesting sight for ob- servers as the birds spread their plum. age to dry out after their morning dip
 Mr. Gilman is very enthusiastic abou his pigeons and takes great pleasur, watching them during idle moments. An, persou who enjoys birds certainly woulC bc attracted to this Hook.
