 Outing Doesn't Draw
 A poorly attended outing at the State Park was touched upon as one of the reasons why the Chamber deems it advisable not to hold outings and gatherings. As they do not seem to be appreciated it is deemed better to conserve the Chambers assets for more productive expenses.
 It was stated that the directors had under consideration a sign for the guidance of aviators when the prob lem was solved by the Union Block Company painting a sign on the top of their building in Union Square.
 The Christmas venture of the mer- chants committee was related, and the 1 1000 letters sent to Santa Claus by the children, that nearly swamped the committee. Over nine hundred pres ents were delivered to the letter writ CTS. It was also stated that the com mittee Is working on an ornamental lighting system for the business sec ton.
 In February the Chamber gave a complimentary banquet to the ?. II. s. championship football team at the Inn. A cleanup week was held The Chamber has standing reward for information leading to the conviction of vandals who destroy outdoor ad- vertising signs.
 An effort was made to have a bet ter morning mail service; also to have the rails removed on South Main St. The Chamber is cooperating in the observance of Memorial Day. and the merchants committee co-operated in the Windham County Farmers Asso- citation style show.
 Bill Was Killed
 Within two weeks it was learned that there was a bill before the gen eral assembly to have three of the four sessions of the superior court held in Willimantic and only one in Putnam. Vice-president Rogers went to Hartford in relation to this legisla- ton. The bill was never passed.
 President King called for sugges- tions as to any matters that might be taken up the coming year None were forthcoming. Judge Fuller and s. Nikoloff responded when called upon for remarks.
 A. E. Smith, treasurer, gave de tailed report showing that as of May ist the Chamber has cash balance on hand of s601.7I. of which $500 is in savings and si0f.7i in checking ac- count. The meeting adjourned before 1 1 o'clock.

T I'M FL Y FAR M TOPICS
 bu the County Agricultural Agent

My pasture is old and run out" or T can't keep the brush oa my pasture" are remarks that I often hear different farmers make through out the county. Are your pastures in this condition? If SO, let's try to get to the reasons and solutions
 Pasture is one of the cheapest feeds the dairyman or livestock man can have, yet it is the one thing to which we pay the least attention. Some think that the fertilizer put on the pasture by the animals themselves Is enough, but when you stop tO think of the vast acreage that an ami maj has Co cover f means that there is very little fertilizer per acre.
 Experiments have been carried cn at Storrs, on nine different plots of four acres each, with various kinds of fertilizer. The different fertiliz- CTS that have been used are: lime stone. superphosphate, muriate of potash and nitrate of soda. These ex- periments were started five years ago and now there are figures available 
 different treatments The one which shows the largest return fer dollars invested is that of one ton Of lime per acre and 500 pounds of superphos- phate. The measurements of these yields have been taken by feeding steers on the plots over a period of five years and figuring the gain as the yield of the pasture These plots are open for examination at any time and cn the first day of June there is to be a Pasture Field Day held at Storrs to give the farmers an oppor- tunity to look over these plots and see what has been done by different applications of fertilizer and also to listen Co talks by the men who have worked cn these experiments. Last year there were a large number of

 During the dinner there was group singing led by Mir. Mulgrew and songs by Miss Hughes.
 The Senator"
 When cigars were lighted T. H.. deCoudres. past president, introduced a distinguished gentleman who had been sitting at the head table, and whom no one seemed to know, as Wm. J. Corby, senator from North Dakota. The gathering expected to hear for mai speech from the senator" but, in broken English, he launched into a variety of topics, a burlesque lot of political oratory and sharp cracks on events of the past, present, and future. He provided half hour of keen hu- nor and had the gathering in good na- ture.
 From then on the other members of Mir. Mulgrew's outfit entertained. Miss Hughes with songs, Miss Mitchell in costume changes aHd songs, passing among the tables. and Donahue and Pelletier in a comedy talk and dance act, with Mir. Mulgrew adding a num- Der of his clever stories. 4 song by all of the little company rounded out very pleasing entertainment.
 seeretary's Report
 The secretary gave n report outlin- ing the work of the past year, stress ing the work done, extending over a period of eight months, in hopes to get the Veterans Hospital for Putnam. It was shown that a great deal of effort was put forth and that everything possible was done, but without success.
 A similar report was made regard ing the attempt to get new industries to locate in Putnam. 4 number of prospects have been entertained dur ing the year. some have not yet been given up as hopeless. The committee was unfortunate in several instances where they had worked at least two prospects up to the point of locating here, only to find that the floor space at the factory of the Putnam Land and Mills Company was not available at once because the company had given an option on the plant. This delay, it k believed, lost at least two new in- dustries for Putnam.
 During the year President King went to Philadelphia with Mir. Mouire, of the Land and Mills Company, to in- terview possible prospects, but without the desired result It has been a dis couraging year for the new industries committee, but the committee IS ready

S35O,OOO Hike
seen IN FORD
PAY ROLL HERE
Boost in Wages, Estimated
at Is Per Cent, Affects
1850 Employees.
FEW TO BE MADE IDLE
Workers Will Go on Other
Jobs During Period of
Shutdown.

If rumors. current after Henry
Fords announcement Thursday Of a
general wage increase in his plants,
that Ford Motor Company en-
ployes will receive a 16 per cent pay
raise prove true, the annual pay roll
of employees here will be augmented
more than $350,000, it was learned
today.
Figured on the 16 per cent iaSis,
each of the 1850 employees in the
local Ford shops would receive an
increase of 81 daily. The present
annual pay roll is 100000.
Almost simultaneously with Ford's
announcement of the wage increase,
another order was made public,
closing twenty-five assembly plants
until Dec. Is, to allow dealers to re-
duce stocks on hand.
Rex A. Hayes, assistant manager
of the Indianapolis plant, 1915 East
Washington street, said the closing
order would not affect local eni~
ployes seriously, since the majority
of those thrown out Of regular work
would be retained in the mainte-
nance department, re-establishing
the Ford service school, diSmantled
for construction of the new body
plant.
Additional production upon COM
pletion of this plant recently gave
employment to almost 500 men. The
entire shop, at full production, turns
out 100 bodies daily.
At present, bodies for tudor
sedans, phaetons. rOadSters and
trucks are assembled here.

Workers Guess at Raise

BIZ JNtfCd PreSS
DETROIT, Nov. 22.-Patient ex-
pectation was manifest among
Henrys Ford's army of 10000
workers here today as they dis
cussed the auto magnate's proposed
geenral wage increase for them.
Conjecture over the details of the
increase, its amount and extent be-
gan shortly after news of Ford's
proposal stirred the city Thursday
afternoon.
While street corner newsboys
gainfully barked their wares with
the cry, Henry Ford Sensation"
industrial leaders of the city and
nation shared the interest of the
Ford workers in the Millionaire auto
manufactures announcement at
Washington.
Although the announcement occa-
stoned widespread surprise, partly
because of its seeming Spontaneity,
Officials of the Ford Motor Company
today indicated that the matter of
wage increase had been under
consideration by Ford for some
weeks. 1t was said, however, that
a definite announcement had not
been expected at this time.
Ford's statement that the coun-
try needs cheaper prices for prod
uctS and higher wages for workers
recalls that this business philosophy
prompted the establishment Of a
minimum wage Of SIS a day by Ford
in 1914 A later expression of Ford's
doctrine Of lower price levels and
higher wages came in 1921.
In that year, which is frequently
referred to as the leanest in the
automobile industry, Ford made a
sharp reduction in the price of his
products and put into effect certain
production economies which he be-
lieved essential to maintain the
wage scale that had been established
a short time previously.

STEEPLEJACKS
Dive TO DEATH
Three Bodies Are Found in
Brooklyn Chimney.

NEW YORK, Nov 22.-Three
steeplejacks. perched on the thread
like boards they had strung across
the top of a high chimney in
Brooklyn, tumbled to death Thurs
Cay, when their scaffolding snapped.
1t was not until early today, ap-
proXimately sixteen hours after the
accident, that Michael Walsh, a
Waterman for the American Sugar
Refinery. OH which the chimney was
located. opened a trap { or at the
base of the stack and found the
three bodies in the huge CRATE.
The dead:

Alfred Clark of Harrison, N. j.,
his brother.
Anthony Miller Of North Airing
ton N. J.
Firemen placed ladders inside the
chimney and, near the top, found
the smashed scaffolding lodged
against the chimney walls. Appar-
emily the boards were too frail to
sustain the weight of the three men.
