EASTON TURNS DOWN
PLAN FOR DISPENSARIES

The vote on the County dispen-
sary was very positive. There were
votes recorded about five to one
against the dispensary.
It was known that there was great
opposition to it but not to the ex-
tent that was voted. Every precinct
in the county registered a large ma
jority against the proposition. 1t was
an i'll advised measure from the first,
and should never have been passed
by the legislature.
Under the present Liquor Board
there is ample control of the liquor
business, and under the dispensary
this would not have been so good.
The Liquor Board is doing a fine
job, and will continue to do so.
Neither party was willing to foster
the measure land in the sample bal
lots they ignored the proposition ut
terly.
Then when DR.. Crabbe, director of
the Anti-Salon League spoke here,
and called attention to several loop
holes in the measure, the opposition
began to grow until on election day
it was completely showed under.
The grange came out against it,
and there was some confusion about
the Ministerial Association, at first
reported as being against the measure
and then it was reported that several
of the ministers had opposed it, so
there was no endorsement of it by
them.
That the voters were overwhelm-
ingly opposed to the county going in
the liquor business was shown by the
heavy vote against it.

PATHOL0CIST ADVISES
POTATOES Be SORTED

To avoid Late Blight, which may
infect the tubers as well as the
tops, DR.. Robert A. Jehle, State Plant
Pathologist, advises growers to sort
their potatoes carefully and sell the
sound ones as soon as possible. He
says that infected tubers may be
recognized by slightly sunken, dis
colored areas on the surface from
which dry rot penetrates into the
tubers. Soft rot organisms frequent
ly invade the dry rot areas and cause
soft rot, which involves the entire
tuber. Infected tubers soon rot when
placed in storage, and few diseas-
ed potatoes placed in storage with
healthy ones may result in the loss
of the entire lot.

Kin Of Raj Man
Sends $1,000
To Bundles

WINONA, MINN.-A base hos
pital was the least Mrs. F. S. Bell
felt she could give to beleaguered
Britain. After all, her grand
daughter is married to an Raj
man.
So she sent a check for $1,000
to Bundles for Britain, with note
reading, "Please use this money
to equip a base hospital. I have
a grand -daughter-marriedto a
young Englishman in the general
service of the Royal Flying Force
so 1 am deeply interested in do
ing something for you in your nour
of deep need"
Her check and letter arrived at
the national Office of Bundles for
Britain the same day that cable
grams came in telling of the ur-
gent need for medical equipment.
Her gift was used Immediately.

During the last few minutes of
cooking, place pear halves around
a veal roast to brown. Sprinkle pears
with grated cheese and finely chopped
nuts, if desired.
Turnips, carrots and onions are
suggestions for vegetables in autumn
stews. Okra and tomatoes, too, make
a happy combination.
Onions require thorough curing and
drying, and they must be kept in a
cool, dry place.

When a milkman delivers milk, it's

stops a hold-up by throwing milk

again.

 SUITS IS MADE Claims Against City for WatertOwn Avenue AC-

Settlement of three suits sched- llled to be heard before Judge Frank P. McEvoy in the superior court today was made late yesterday af- ternoon. The cases involved $26,OOO damages and were against the City of Waterbury. The actions were brought by MT. and Mrs. Pasquale Rosa and their daughter, Theresa, as a result of their automobile plunging through the iron fence near the corner of Wattertown ave- nue and Bunker Hill and dropping into the Naugatuck river.
 The accident happened on March g, 1889, when the roadway on Wa tertown avenue was in 8 slippery condition. The plaintiffs claimaD that holes in the roadway caused Pasquale Rosa, the driver of the car, to lose control of the vehicle he was driving with the result that he was thrown into the Naugatuck river and submerged and narrowly escaped death by drowning.
 Rosa was rushed to a hospital at the time of the accident and re- vived but suffered greatly from
