tons may be necessary during the coming summer unless a superabun- dance of rain continues during the spring season. Connecticut's water works in general have been so con- structed that any actual suffering because of water shortage Is im- probable. As a precautionary meas ure, however, the water companies urge citizens of the state to avoid unnecessarily use or waste of water. Repair of 1eaky fixtures is especially advocated since even a small drop by d ropleak will waste several gall Ions of water a day.
 .stamford's water supply is one outstanding exception to the gener- al water situation. The Stamford Water company reports that it's pres ent supply is sufficient without re- pienishment to meet the require ments of it's customers for nearly two years. While the rest of the state has undergone severe rain fall shortage for nearly two years. its southwestern corner has suffered only slightly less than the normal precipitation.

 Talk Over Oaucuses.
 Tn order to eXpediate matters at the three democratic ward caucuses to be held Thursday night in the three wards of the borough for the purpose of choosing a candidate for burgess from each ward, delegates to the town and borough convention e e~ho I dI IL was suggested at the meeting of the dem- ocratic club of the borough last night held in the borough court room that two ballot boxes be used and when the name of the voter is called off he will cast a ballot both for his choice for burgess and for delegates to the town and borough convention. This would do away with lot of confusion it was point ed out as the caucuses are from all indications to be very largely at tended. If this procedure is adopt ed it will be necessary to have but one roll call of the voters.
