FELL ON OLD BRICK PAVEMENT
BROKE TEETH AND INJURED

Mrs. Eliza Harrington is an aged
woman residing on East Fourth
street, North Milford, where there
are many notoriously bad brick pave
ments. In walking over one of these
last Monday morning, she tripped
and fell. Several teeth were broken
and her side seriously injured by this
fall. which was clearly and without
question, the fault of neglected pave
ments, by the owner of the proper
ty. There are many such pavements
in Milford, one of which is on Caus-
ey avenue near the railroad station,
which has long been nuisance to
everybody who travels over that
street. There are others on South
Front street, from Washington street
to the M. P. Church, on the north
side of that street, which are dang
erous because of uneven and broken
conditions, which in wet weather are
puddles of water; the entire side
street pavements in several sections
are in similar condition. A petition
signed by five people, if presented to
Town Council, will cause all such
pavements to be replaced with con-
crete. The trouble is, property ow-
ners of such properties, have no
pride in appearances.

JAPANESE BEETLE PEST
WILL APPEAR THIS WEEK
fcontinned from first pagel

sprayed before the time of harvest,
any residue remaining on the fruit
when they are picked should be re-
moved carefully by wiping and
washing. Certain varieties ripen so
soon afte rthe time of appearance
of the beetle that it is not recon-
mended to spray them until after
the crop has been harvested, in
which case it may be necessary to
spray the foliage in order to protect
it against further attacks Of the bee
tie.
In the protection of grapes
against the attack of the beetle it
should be remembered that the
punches of fruit are not eaten by
the beetle. It is therefore necessary
that the spray be applied to the fol-
iage only. For the protection of
grapes foliage a Bordeaux mixture
prepared according to the 1850
formula should be used. Three
pounds of arsenate of lead powder
should be added to each fifty gallons
of the Bordeaux mixture, and care
should be taken in its application to
have as little as possible go on the
fruit clusters. Grapes should not be
sprayed later than July 5.
'It is recommended that shade
trees, rose bushes and other orna-
mental plants which can be sprayed
with arsenate of lead without injury
should be sprayed with coated arsen-
ate of lead at the rate of five pounds
to fifty gallons of water. The coated
lead remains much longer and the
results are better. No flour should be
added to this mixture.
"In cases where the beetles are
concentrated in large numbers, as
they soon will be, use a pyrethrum
soap which kills the pests as soon as
it strikes them. No foliage injury re-
suits from two applications, but, for
the time being, one application only
is recommended"

In Il few earnest words, Connie
Mack said that he hoped that the

CTS and he appreciated the reception
given them; but, he wanted to eX-
press his personal pleasure in having
bad the opportunity to visit Milford

greater than the people will ever
understand. He took the opportunity
10 express his thanks for being per-
mitted to help in splendid public
service such as the Emergency Hos
pital of Milford, through the Rotary
Club of Milford.
Dr.. G. L. Grier, who is the presi-
dent of the Milford Emergency Hos
pital, expressed thanks OF the board
of trustees of that institution, to Mr..
Mack for his splendid testimonial
through the benefit game of base
ball, and also to the players who
took part, which brought in for the
hospital total sum of $1,600-all OF
which is greatly appreciated.
