AULD LANG SINE ENDS
 SEVEN DRY YEARS

Edmond Bousquet. 46 Elm street. nanielson. met a friend last Satur- day afternoon whom he had not seen since they spent their sehooldays to- gether. The result was that Bous- quet became the guest of the Putnam police department over the weekend and was sentenced by Deputy Judge Archibald Macdonald. Jr.. in Putnam city court to pay a fine of one dollar and costs of two after pleading guilty to a charge of drunkness on Monday morning. Bousquet who is married and has two children told the court that he had not had a drink in seven years but that he met an old school mate who had evidently had no such record because he had several bottles with him. So presumably Bousquet fell for Auld Lang Syne's sake with disastrous results.
 According to Officer Harry Wallen, Bousquet was found drunk on prem ises on Ballou street on Saturday af- ternoon after the police department had received a complaint from resi- dents there. He has been working at night in the new Solzberg mills. The lenient fine was imposed after Bous- quet had promised not to appear be- fore the court again so he had better keep away from his old schoolmates.

TIM FL Y FAR M TOPICS
 by the County Agricultural Agent
Late Summer and Full Pasture

Our pasture season is six months long. Yet most pastures produce feed of any consequence during May and June only. Adequate pasture means not only better quality feed but plenty of it from the first of May until the first of November. Length ening the pasture season may be even more important than merely improving the character of the growth.
 There are several schemes which are worth considering when planning a complete pasture program. It is ob- vious that no standardized recom- mendation can be made. The prac- ticabilitv of any plan will depend up- on the character of the soil, ease of tillage. ratio of acreage to number of animals kept, cost of raising crops to be fed in the barn. cost of fertil- izer treatments. cost of fencing and so on. The best one can do is to take the information available and work out a program suited to the farm situations. While many valuable studies of pasture crops have been made. it is also true that more infor- nation is needed concerning the rel ative pasture value of such crops as sweet clover. alfalfa, timothy. red and alsike clover
 "It now seems clear that nitrogen applications on permanent pastures do not solve the problem of making good pasture throughout the season. Last April heavy applications of ni- trogen on the plots at Storrs made 8 big increase in pasture for the first two weeks in May. By the first of June the growth was less than on the plots which had received only lime stone and superphosphate. Last sum mer a second application of nitrogen the first of July made only a slight increase in herbage. Other experi- ments in the Northeastern states have failed to show a practical way of maintaining adequate pasture throughout the season with a per manent sod. Even the heaviest ferti- lized land is affected seriously by droughts such as occurred last year. Because of the relatively low cost of improvement with topdressings of lime and supcrphosphate, land best

Putnam Man Held
 Following Finding
Coroner Says Manyak of Hartford and Thibeauls of Putnam Both
 Negligent in Operation of Cars

Dona Thibeault of Water street Is he'd jointly responsible with John W. Manyak of Hartford for an automo- bile accident in which their ears crashed at Columbia Green Saturday. August 2nd, causing the death of Adelia Miller. child seven years old. of South Manchester. Manyak has been held under bond by the coroner since the accident. After the inquest and his finding the eoro- ner also caused Thibeault to be held, both drivers being found negligent by the county official. Thibeault furnish ed bond of sf.000 for appearance.
 The coroner finds that the Hart ford car struck the Putnam ear broadside pushing the Putnam car onto the bank and overturning the Hartford car. As the result of the crash the little girls head was badly cut by glass and crushed by the overturning of the vehicle.
 As to the Putnam mans testimony the coroner finds:
 Saw the Coach
 "Thibcault testified that he saw the coach some distance from the corner. but was SO far away he paid no at tention to 1t thinking he would pass the intersection before the coach got there; that he did not see the gasoline truck, and that he did not again look to his left until he was in the in- tersection and the coach was nearly upon him. If he saw the coach as he testified. he must have caught a
 .4 sI Ia as4A the gas truck and his glance must therefore have been heeting one. He could not have seen the approach ing car long enough to judge it's speed, and considering the respect i've distance which each car had to travel to reach the intersection, to judge which car would reach there first. It was therefore incumbent on him to approach the intersection with great caution and 10 keep a sharp lookout for the approaching coach. On the other hand if he did not ob- serve the coach until he was in the intersection. he clearly failed to keep a proper lookout.
 "Manyak apparently observed the coach as soon as 1t came into view past the gasoline truck, but was travelling at rate of speed which made it impossible for him to avoid the collision.
 "I find that said death was caused by the negligent and careless man. ner in which John Manyak and Dona Thibeault operated the respective cars as they approached the intersection and that no other person or persons contributed to said death. y
