to find the available supply of
plant foods. 1t is the background
for the soil testing system develop
ed by DR.. Morgan and described in
Station Bulletin 372 now on the
press. In the second, DR.. Morgan
will discuss changes in active basic
soil chemicals through fertilizer ap-
plications, teaching and crop re-
moval. In this paper the results of
lysimeter Investigations carried on
at the substation at Windsor are
presented.
Besides attending the congress,
DR.. Slate and DR.. Morgan have ar
ranged for conferences with DIR. L.
Dudley Stamp, director of the land
use survey of Great Britain. Land
use projects of a somewhat similar
nature, extremely important in eco
nomic planning and in rural re-
Mobilization, are being carried on
in Connecticut by the Experiment
Stations at New Haven and at
Storrs. DR.. Stamp is a recognized
authority in this field.
DR.. Slate will also take this OPP
portunity to investigate foreign
measures to curb the Dutch elm
disease in England and Holland
where it has destroyed many thou
sands of elms in recent years.

George Frame Brown, creator
Of "Real Folks" and the current
TONY and GUS series on the NBC
blue network, says the Frame"
keeps his name from becoming
"just another synonym for
Smith" To be like any
body else would be damaging to
this individualist's peace of mind.
Knows more about Broad
way characters than any two men,
but in repeating them has the
strange fault of improving their
humor. Eugene O'Neill is
one of his best friends. -. For
oblivion, he dominates all "phon-
les" bores, military geniuses and
people who do something for
what's in it" He can't pass
a panhandler in the street without
doing out. Thinks people
should sleep when they're sleepy
and eat when they're hungry re-
gardless of the time of day. :.
Claims there Is no leisure for a
script writer. . Born in Seat
tie 3S years ago. Brown grew no
among Scandinavian settlers.

The death last Friday of an
autoist whose car skidded across
the trolley rails on Homer sNreet
was .called to the attention of the
board of works at its meeting last
night and as a result, Mayor Frank
Hayes, City Engineer Robert A.
Cairns and Street Supt. Thomas J.
Fleming were instructed to confer
with Connecticut company officials
to determine what can be done
about remedying what was de-
scribed as q dangerous condition
to traffic.
Commissioner C. Arthur Dubois,
Waterville's representative on the
works board brought up the mat
ter. He said Edward Mansfield,
So, of Middletown was killed and
Alfred ALBION of $50 Baldwin street
was seriously injured when the
car Mansfield was driving was
caught in the rails which project
two inches over the road and took
control of the machine out of the
drivers hands. The car shot
across the road to strike a pole.
The condition described by Com
, 1Itl6SlOhCL DuDOio " NC llAoiAy
gerous to all automobile drivers.
Private Way
Since the part of the road on
which the rails rest is a private
way owned by the trolley company,
the works board has no authority
to step in with repairs. 1t was
then voted to have the mayor,
city engineer and street superin-
tendent confer with trolley COM
pany officials to have the condi-
ton remedied.
The board voted to construct an
asphalt sidewalk on Grandview
avenue between Revere street and
Woodside avenue, instead of
concrete one. 1t was first thought
a concrete walk would bet he best
construction but Attorney Morris
Robin protested, claiming the cost
was too great. The asphalt walk
will cost 60 cents per square foot
while concrete would have cost
$1.20 per square foot. The petition
asking for a walk was signed by
80 residents of that section and
was presented by Commissioner
Alfred Loeffler.

on their property was referred to
Corporation Counsel Charles S. o.
Conner and City Engineer Cairns,
to determine what steps are neces-
sary for the city to reclaim the wa
ter course running through that
section and to lay a storm water
sewer.
Neill Street Project
The present water main on Neill
street will be replaced by larg-
err one, the work to be done by
men on the FERA or the WPA.
The board OF aldermen was asked
to grant authorization for the
laying of sewer on Woodtick
road from a point 200 feet north
Of Radcliffe avenue, ESQ feet
northerly. Nine property owners
favored it, while one opposed. Six
owners were absent. The board
authorized Superintendent Fleming
to remove three trees at Frost
road and Woodland avenue, 1t be-
ing requested by Commissioner
Lawrence Kenny, who said the
residents there desired the remov-
al. A request for improving
Greystone trail from Greystone to
Waterbury, through Bucks Hill
was referred to the superintendent
of streets for investigation.
