NorD Is Time To See Doctor For
 Fall Hay FeDer
lamentations Begun Early Stand Better Than Even
 Chance to Relieve, Says State Health Expert

To the forty thousand or more Connecticut residents who annual ly suffer from hay fever, Dr Harry B. Smith, epidemiologist of the Bureau of Preventable Diseases of the state department of health, in the departments weekly broadcast today addressed the advice that they see the family physician at once and begin taking innocula- tions against this distressing ail- ment before 1t sets in early in the fall. To be effective, he said, treat- ment must be started from six to ten weeks before the rag weed gets in it's treacherous work of filling the air with irritating pollen.
 Although many consider hay fever as something of joke which is annoying while 1t lasts and not at all serious, such is not the case, Dr Smith explained. "A certain percentage of hay fever patients may develop asthma and sinus in- lection if their hay fever is not properly treated. The attacks of asthma resulting from hay fever may at first be transient and last during the height of the season for that specific pollen only, but lsuch attacks may be prolonged and the victims may eventually develop | perennial asthma which in turn re- suits in chronic asthma and lasts | for years. Likewise, many hay

fever patients develop infection of the nasal sinuses which may per- sist throughout life."
 About half of the hay fever cases in Connecticut are of the fall type which is caused by the pollen or rag weed. The other half are of the spring type resulting from pol- lens of other splant life. For the spring sufferers, it is too late for
 relief this year, although treat
 ment begun now and continued throughout the winter will increase
 if not completely establish immur- ity for them by next spring. For the rag weed or fall season victims, their physician can now administer an innoculation which has better than an even chance Of helping them. One specialist has
 reported that of 1,70O cases treat ed twenty-five per cent were entire ly relieved, fifty per cent were only
 slightly rlieved and ~tn per cent were not benefited at all.
 Those who have had considers able experience with the disease be- lieve that a complete cure is more
 apt to rsult with young children
 who have had it but for short
 time. Taking hay fever treatments
 once a month throughout the year
 not only stands good chance of
 relieving the disease but 1t also
 tends to diminish greatly the num- Der of winter colds.

William Lee of Mott Street, New York, Described as Gernlan-Ch Chinese, Oficiates in Mere Breach of Peace Case To-day = Acts For All Chinese Ar- rested in New York and Connecticut Where In- terpreter is Needed

Interest in the appearance of the 'principals in the case of Willie Buck versus Joseph Albino, 19, oi 30 Union street, became a second airy matter in police court this morning when a keen-looking, well dressed American stepped into the picture and became an interpre- ter in Chinese for the we'll known Willie Buck.
 The interpreter presented him. self as William Lee of 24 Mott street, New York city, and in- formed Judge McGrath that he had been detailed here by Chi nese society of New York to as- sist the state in obtaining 8 full and comprehensive statement from. the complaining witness.
 To the astonishment of court officials and attendants Lee rat tied off the Chinese language like a native. He relayed Prosecuting Attorney Charles Summa's ques- tons to Buck in "snappy" Chinese and repeated the answers in Eng fish to the court.
 It later developed that Leo is part Chinese and part German. He exhibits, however, none of the ra- cial characteristics of either. He Is head of. an association which bears his name and officiates or his society in all civil and crimi- nal cases in all parts of New York state and Connecticut. His serv- Ices are paid for by a group of Chinese members interested iu mutual protection when they are summoned to court. Lee has ap. peared in narcotic, murder. and various other cases.

those old time stories of ''No Checkee, No Shirtee". Willie Buck claimed that young Albino walked into his place of business and started an argument over a shirt he claimed to have left with Willie. The latter suspected that Albino has been transferring some of his patronage to a rival laundryman in the same neighborhood.
 Bucks, story to the police indi- cated that Albino wrecked the door of the laundry and attempted to rifle the cash register of its con- tents. He actually took $2, stated Willie.
 Albino admitted going into the store and arguing for the return of his shirt. As for a check, he didn't need one as he had been trading with Buck for five years and never received a check. Witnesses told of the fight, of remarks passed between Buck and Albino, and other features of the case, which neventually simmered down to @ mere assault and breach of the peace incident. There was no testimony that young Albino forced his way into the laundry The door Of the place was wide open.
 There was also some testimony to the effect that Willie has Q habit of running into 8 pool room nearby, snatching up a few pool balls and running out of the place with the players in pursuit. To prevent a general neighbor- hood quarrel Judge McGrath con- tinued the case for six months and instructed Albino, to remain away from Buck.
 MT Lee, the German-C Chinese Interpreter, however, stole the show for the day. 4@ttf z

Seek Substitutes
 For Lead Arsenate
Eliminate Such Sprays in Apple Orchards of
 State

New Haven, August 3 - Botan.
 fists and entomologists of the Con- necticut Agricultural Experime
 Station are experimenting with various chemicals as Q substitute | for lead arsenate in the apple or- 1 chard. Orchard owners. agricul- tural officials. and foods inspec- tors, are united in an effort to eliminate this material ds a spray for the control of insect pests. If something else as effective is not found, the bugs will fight their
 own battle for possession of the apple crop.
 Apple growers of the state can see for themselves the results of different treatments by inspecting the trees on the Station Farm at the annual Field Day, August 16, in Mount Carmel. Calcium, arsenate has been wide- iy suggested as substitute. The
 station has used it this spring both with and without lime and with and without fungicides. At this time the control cannot be determined,
 but certain other results are plain Calcium arsenate without lime burned the trees badly; they are
 almost defoliated and the fruit is obviously injured. On the other
 hand, trees sprayed with calcium
 arsenate with lime appear in good
 condition.
 Barium fluosidicate is also being tried. Other materials under study
 are synthetic cryolite, magnesium
 arsenate, and manganese arsenate. The Investigations in the old or
 chard are in charge of Philip Ger
 man; E. M. Stoddard and M. F.
 zappe are running the tests in the young orchard.
 A section of the peach orchard
 has been devoted to studies of sprays to control curculio that will not burn the trees. It appears that barium Fluosilicate is as satisfac- tory as lead arsenate. both for con- trol and for avoiding burn. Po- tassium fluosilicate and magnesi- um arsenate caused burn. Orien- tai peach moth studies are under way in another section of the peach orchard. Dr Garman is con- ducting these experiments.

 Judge Els in his decision stated that while five years ago the milk bill, fixing the prices probably would have been held unconstitu- tional as claimed by the attorneys in the fight for the Injunction, but the present emergency warrants the practice of fixing and maintain ing certain prices. He added that to find the milk control bill un- constitutional would be to return the industry to chaos which existed before the measure was enacted.
 So, for the present, the price of milk as laid down by the milk board will be 12 cents per quart delivered to the house and II cents if purchased at stores.
