states will soon push the daily
average of crude consumption past
the balmiest days OF the Canadian
market, operators comment. Au-
gust shipment to other states to-
tailed 37,O76 barrels. an increase
of about 10000 barrels over July.
/ Included in this figure was 1874
barrels shipped out by Ohio Oil
company from Dry Creek field, and
/ from smaller fields Kelvin shipped
no oil to other states; Cut Bank
shipped 24.S92 barrels, mostly to
PocatellO, Idaho, which began to
take oil during the late summer
months. Movement of British
Americans storage oil across the
border to its Coutts plant was
largely responsible for the total OF
27.SS0 barrels of exports to Canada.
This total included little over 100
barrels per day from all other
fields, against nearly 500 barrels
per day in July.
Since Montana refiners were OPP
Grating about maximum capacity
this year, producers figure that the
average of 1895 bar
rels per day may be accepted as
the amount of oil that must be
provided for present Montana re-
Timers To this may be added next
year the following:
BBl. per day
POcatello refinery 1900
Spokane refineries (2) 5000
Capacity new plants $500
This will bring the total TO
1876 barresl per day. which is
still below the potential Of north
Montana oil fields.
To this may be added the fol-
lowing:
Shelby refinery $500
Minot refinery 1000
Refineries proposed $500
This will bring the total maxi
mum refinery demand to 2O,266
barrels per day. Montana has
never produced this much oil,
having run upward of $4,000 bar
els during the peak of Cut Bank,
tut can easily exceed 10000 barrels

operators say the latter field can !

An idea of the comparative ]
present market TO that when
Montana oil was going to
Canada is given by the fact
that average exports TO Canada
in 1885 were 5000 barrels per
day. Average exports TO Cana !
da in 1887 were 5y373 barrels
per day.
The average market i'm 1896,
peak year of Out Bank, was
1900 barrels per day and the
average daily market i'm 1897
was 1890 barrels per day in
the state. 4

Democrats Should Get Together

Announcement of the annual meeting of the Democratic Town Committee next week at which time officers will be chosen for the coming year presents an opportunity that should not be over- looked by MT. Crary - for without doubt he will be unanimously reelected to the post he has occupied so efficiently for the past two decades or more-namely, that he extend the olive branch to the Independent Democrats of Waterbury when the time arrives.
 In accordance with the redistricting set-up recently completed by the mayors non-partisan committee and adopted later by the Board of Aldermen, in the future the Town Committee will be obliged to have thirty-two voting dls- trictS, which necessarily means thirty two committeeman. The present con- mittee is limited to twenty. In the near future in all probability the committee will be enlarged. Twelve new members must be added to the roster.
 Right there is where the opportunity presents itself in no uncertain way for MT. Crary to dust off the olive branch, extend it to the Independents and go to town with bang-up job of one-hundred percent, old-fashioned Democratic repre- sentation once more in Waterbury. The time is rife, Independents in most lrl- stances receptive and the party sadly in reed of such a reorganization.
 While the results of last years election may still rankle in the minds of some Democrats, those same results plainly show that an united Democratic party is unbeatable in Waterbury. And never perhaps in the history of local politics with the Republican party and it's little "clique", the so-called steering commit tee," leaving no stone unturned to drag the good name of every Democrat through the mire, has there been greater need for an united front by every Demo- crae-independent or regular-to prevent the ultimate breakup of the party for years to come.
 Waterbury can and will remain in the Democratic column if, as we said above, Town Chairman John H. Crary will eXer- else his ordinary good judgment in the matter of expanding his committee to fulfil the new requirements. By that we mean give the Independents equal repre- Sentation on the new enlarged commit tee, weed out the deadwood and give up-and-coming young Democrats of this city chance not only there, but all along the line right up until next stete and city elections and finally representation on those tickets when the occasion arrives. Now is the time-tomorrow too late.

Thomas F. Bergin

Waterbury loses another old and respected citizen in the death of Thomas F. Bergin this week. He had long been linked with the undertaking business established by his father many years ago on South Main street. The Waterbury Democrat always proudly recalls that Bergin the Undertaken was one of the earliest, if not the very earliest of it's advertisers, whose business card may still be found in these columns And the Democrat is now in its 51St year as daily newspaper.
 "Tom' Bergin was an interesting man to talk to. He conversed well and on many subjects. He had keen outlook on life and took considerable interest in the affairs of this city and the nation. He devoted himself wholeheartedly to this business, but managed from time to time to indulge in such outside pursuits as he believed necessary for man. His service on the Board of Education was of the same type as his business endeavors.
 Although he had been in poor health for some time his death was sudden and a shock to his family and friends He will be missed in the circles in which he was wont to fraternize. His friendly dis position and his timely comments will not be forgotten for some time to come The city in which he made his home for so many years will sincerely regret his un- timely passing.

Catering in Zoo Is Fascinating Work

This business of caring for the worlds strangest creatures, those in captivity, at least, would appear to be as queer as the charges them selves, and as interesting. E. G. Boulenger makes fascinating story of it in his book, "The London Zoo'' (Dutton, $2)
 With MT. Boulenger, who has been intimately associated with the great London Zoo for many years, you go behind the scenes for a most amazing story. For zoo catering today is conducted on grand scale.
 In the London Zoo, established in 1928, the charges range from elephants and the hippoS to the monkeys and humming birds. The dietary idosyncracieS of each is a story in itself. For instance:
 Delciate monkeys and lemurs may demand fruits, cooked fish, insects and eggs. Ant-eaters must have minced meat, egg and ira o4elISA AAA1h. A4C NQ4AARAC bdO 10 satified only with a wine-glass- ful of blood first kept on ice and later prepared by means of a fine sieve. The zoo lions and tigers eat a horse a day while a com- pound of egg, matted milk and meat extract seems best to suit the humming birds.
 Zoo. officials cover a quarter of the globe hunting out favorite dishes for their fastidious board- CTS and when the feeding job is finished each night a bedlam is apt to reign. Strangest of all night clubs is zoo with its flash ing eyes, red, green and yellow, roars, cat calls and providers.
 MT. poulenger makes a very graphic picture of it all, supple menting his story with 50 photo graphs. You'll gallop through this book and the children ought to dash for it, too. - P. G. F.

From now and through February 28th the State Motor Vehicle Department branch office on Watertown avenue will be glad to serve all customers with per- feet "thirty-eight's." They are to be slipped into the aperture that now holds a "thirty-seven" on your car licenses. That's all the changing there will be this year for Connecticut motorists and for the next few years, too. No new license plates to be attached to the car .. what a relief! And the only job is to pry open the clips that hold the year numerals in place. What change from the good old days when you might wait in line two and three hours for your plates Even then the system was supposed to be quite up to date, but it certainly didn't take Commissioner Michael A. Connor long to discard it and substitute a modernized one in place of it. And each succeeding year finds something added to make it easier to secure licenses. It all makes for more business for the State of Connecti- cut.

Buildings In Prospect

State papers have recently announced plans for and printed pictures of the new buildings that in year or so will grace two of our tuberculosis institutions. They are at Cedarcrest in Hartford and Laurel Heights in Shelton. From the drawings both are imposing structures and the latest word, we should say, in modern and scientific construction. Both are to be built under the supervision of the newly-created Public Works Depart ment.
 At Laurel Heights there will be a seven-story infirmary, housing 40 pa- tientS. This will cost about $400,000 the funds to be provided, we believe, through the institutional bonds that the state will float. These bonds were provided for by the last Legislature when it author ized an issuance of $25,000,000 to cover the states existing deficit at the time of bond issuance and also to carry on a building program, necessary many years ago but unfortunately postponed from year to year through lack of adequate funds.
 The Laurel Heights structure will be imposing in many ways. Its location is very advantageous as it is set high on bluff overlooking the Housatonic River and valley. We mentioned modernity and science. Both will combine to make the new infirmary capable of catering to the utmost needs of the tubercular patients The same is true of the Hartford institu- tion, which will be erected, incidentally at a cost of $55O,00O Similar to the Shelton infirmary the Hartford one will overlook the Connecticut River valley.
 The structures represent, obviously diff ferent thoughts in construction. Where the Shelton infirmary stretches high in the air-seven stories, the Hartford infirmary will be but four stories, but is planned for 391 feet in length It will house 200 patients and provide such other comforts and conveniences as all modern institutions of this type now contain. We regard these two new state

OF CULINARY NOTE
(Hartford Times)

In an editorial exalting fresh mackerel, and noting good news, unprecedented news for this season of the year." the Springfield Re- publican recites that on the 18th of the current month 15,000 pounds of mackerel were brought in to the Boston fish pier, the first such catch ever to reach the Boston market in January" The Republican predicts that probably the seiners will continue to bring in mackerel during the winter months.
 If the weather continues to grow colder, as it has in the past few days, one should think that the Springfield papers prediction will not be realized.
 But what of the salt mackerel situation nowadays? Time was in the horse and buggy era when for large portion of New England the possession of a keg of salt mackerel in the house was well nigh aSS conn., mon as that of a sack of oatmeal or barrel of crackers. The salt nfack- erel, particularly for breakfast, ,twas standard diet for thousands.
 Now our impression is that salt mackerel has become only an occas- ional dish in most homes, Tn many of them dish missing throughout the whole year.
 That ought not to be so. Properly prepared salt mackerel is dellcacy. If the item about fresh mackerel, in the recent news, serves to remind people that there is such a thing as salt mackerel, and to inquiry as to how to prepare it, likely that would prove a happy circumstance.

Litchfield County lost one of it's colorful political figures last week when "Chet" Middlebrooks died at Winsted. For years he was active in the affairs of the Demo- cratic party in county that was regarded solidly Republican. Despite the handicap of his party politics he was elected High Sheriff back in 1903 and again in 1911. His perennial foe for the office was the late Sheriff Frank H. Turkington whose death occurred last year. Both were typical of the old school were memorable ones and old-timers delighted in recalling them.

stock, furnishings and general at mosphere, in its reconstruction of the Old Throop Pharmacy, of Scho- harie, just completed.
 The globes of pale and brightly colored waters that stood in the window are there; the hand-blown medicine bottles and the pot-bellied stove, even the ol daccount books going back about 136 years, have been preserved. CuriouSly enough, the stock of drugs is not very diff ferent from the stock of the most modern drug store. Can the modern drug store, though, furnish the same hospitality as stores of Throop's kind used to on 8 cold winter eve- ming, when Doc broke his trip back from a distant farm with news that it was a boy this time at Mo- Lellan's, and spiritus trumenti was indicated for himself and the apothecary? The prescription clerk and the constable didn't care if they did, either, and until the clock showed it was dead of night at 11:15 there would be mild tipple and gossip.
 Not many of us middle-aged folks were present at such profess sional causerie back of the counters, but who of us can forget releasing from his palm the nickel that paid for quarter of a pound of gum drops in a white paper bag and the druggists blessing: Don't eat 'em all at once, Tom" At such times as these the old drug store-which could also afflict with its two-ounce bottle of castor oil-seemed a most attractive place: friendly, mildly pungent, bright with watery lights from the colored globes in the window.

In New York
BY GEORGE ROSS

New York, Jan. 23-A Manhattan, Miscellany: Now aborning is hobo fraternity to end all hobo fratern- ities. They call this one the Five and Ten Club and its charter nucleus is headed by Jack Dempsey and Jim Fully, both eminent knights of the rods. The eligibility rules are easy. The aspirant to membership must prove that he has journeyed 5000 miles around the country by freight or to have gained thet hospitality of at least one hobo jungle
 The roster, of course, will in- clude only distinguished people writers, boxers, lawyers, bankers and stage and screen actors. Wallace Ford is one of the first to be ini- tiated. The Five and Ten Club meets for it's inaugural in Dempsey's place and the banquet will avoid chi-chi as much as possible. Piece de resist ance: Mulligan Stew. Every course will be served in tin cans and scoop ed up with rudimentary utensils. JuuSe OI MUSIC
 Every time Justice Leopold Prince steps from a high seat on the bench and swaps Justices scales for a baton at symphony concert, it calls for a recount of his musical career.
 He has been at it for 25 years or more; dispensing justice by day and songs by night. And among au- thoritative musicians he is consider ed quite a figure in the musical world. Not only has he conducted many an orchestra, but he com- poses, also one of his best known numbers being "Dulcie', which is played frequently over the air waves.
 He started, Judge Prince con- fides, by playing violin duets with his son at home. Soon the neighbors started drifting in for fireside con- certs. Then word spread that the judge was equally at home with a law book and a symphonic score and invitations poured in from many people. The judge began to get out on public podlums shyly, but so great was his success that eventually group got together to endow a permanent musical organ ization under his direction.
 At rehearsals, he is as earnest, they say, as Toscaninin and brooks no nonsense from the players. In- cidentally, the Justice-conductor re- ports that in 25 years, on the bench he never has had case involving a musician. He explains this by sur- missing that musicians have neither the temperament nor funds for liti- gation.
 Arresting Recitals
 The judge is not the only public servant to pursue a musical career in off-hours. There is Major John A. Warner, Superintendent of State Police in New York, who is known as one of the finest pianists in the country. Once pupil of such mas ters as Widor, Harold Bauer, Vladi- mir de Pachman and Leopold Co., dowski, he became sufficiently skill ed to satisfy all his teachers.
 Occasionally Warner can be lured into a piano or organ recital with celebrated orchestras. He sits down and plays a lengthy concerto after a long interval, without practice. It's trick his teacher Godowski taught him. GAS postscript: Major Warner is hailed as the greatest |st&te police head of all time).

 A. An automobile going at con- stant speed on level, icy pavement, can not increase its speed when the brakes are applied. The feeling of driver or passenger that momen- tary increase has occurred probably results from absence of the normally expected deceleration when the brakes were applied, owing to skid ding.

The fragrance of the general store has been much praised in recent years, as it has become rarer and rarer for at least two reasons: be- cause of the growing scarcity of gen. eral stores and because modern packaging in the changing stock of survivors has shut up so many pun- gent contributors to the old red- olence. Not so much has been said about the aroma of the old drug store, more subtle and equally per- vasive. One wonders if the Albany College of Pharmacy has been able to reproduce this characteristic and richly compounded odor along with

Selected Poem
AUTUMN MEETING

John Ritchey in the Christian Science Monitor Once, while walking in a wood, We heard brush move and quiet stood Witf trees and woods for miles around And colored leaves upon the ground; So saw what we shall not forget We see it yet we see it yet A doe so lonely and so wise That wisdom dwelt within her eyes And courage lurked ill every feature. This gentle, wise, this lonely creature, That lonely stood, is lonely still; She did not know how beautiful She seemed to us who loved her there With head uplifted, drinking air. We would have touched that velvet coat And stroked the long and lovely throat And spoken words that comforted- She did not know, and so she fled!
