Guernsey Breeders
Sell Prize Cattle as
Aid to British Fund

Gua'nsey breeders throughout the
United States are doing everything
possible to raise money for their milk
fund for British relief which is con-
signed to the Friends of the Fighting
Forces in England. Donations by
breeders have made it possible to send
one shipment already.
The latest angle being used is the
consignment of animals to sales All
proceeds from the sale of these ami
mails go directly to the Guernsey
Breeders milk fund, and none of the
ale managers or associations are tax
ing anything for their work.
To date. four GuernseyS have been
old at auction for a total of S3,6lO

RECORD TURKEY
CROP IS FORECAST

The United States department of ag-
rlculture reports the turkey crop is
the largest in history and prices by
Thanksgiving should be greatly re-
duCed from the last several years.
The department estimates a crop of
100000 turkeys. more than adequate
to demands resulting from President
Roosevelts creation Of "anoth he r
Thanksgiving
Coinc.dentally, the department re-
ported, consumption of turkey
Throughout the year increased in homes
and public eating places.
The number OF turkeys grown in
the United States has been steadily
increasing for 10 years.
The department said that as the
result of experiments the public has
received better and more edible birds.
In buying turkey, the department
recommends that the buyer pay at
tention 10 the dressed weight of the
bird. which is the weight without
feathers but with head ana feet still
on the fowl. This, it was explained,
is the guide to the time and temper
ature OF roasting.
The department grades birds in
three classiflcations, U. S. prime, choice

NOW Is TIME FOR
WATER REPAIRS
IRRIGATION AND STOCK SYS-
TENS SHOULD BE PLACED IN
SHAPE NOW
Moisture Penetration and Runoff Con-
ditions Favorable for Such Work,
State College Authority Declares.

With the ground in good shape
to work and with indications point
ing to good runoff conditions next
spring. right now is an excellent
time for farmers to make needed
repairs to flood irrigation systems,
stock water reservoirs and other
water holding structures, says G.
ii. Bingham, extension irrigation
specialist at Montana State col
legc.
This fall. Bingham said, there is
good penetration of moisture in the
soil. This means that the ground will
freeze when cold weather hits. making
for good runoff conditions next spring.
Conditions this fail are in direct con-
trast with last year when the soil
vent into the winter in dry Condl-
ton and as 4 result all spring runoff
went into the ground.
The irrigation specialist lists num-
ber OF repair job tina; can be done
On water holding structures. For in

Should be raised to give sufficient
l"te1Oard. Erosion usually occurs in
the spi!iWay with The spring runoff.
Tie sp.llWay should be leveled and
precautions taken 10 see that the sur

I've. subway Is the best safeguard
fer any earth dam.
TO prevent erosion damage to the
dun from wave action. the dam should
be given the proper slope and if the
Gam is riprapped with rock. this should
b. checked to make sure there are nU
bare spots. With the reS,r yoir partly
empty, it is more convenient TO do this
work
Gates in irrigation dams should be
checked in the fall. all rust sCraped
off and the gate we'll creased or paint
ed. Worn gasEets should be replaced
and waterproof cement put in where
the gate joins the cement structure
The threaded rod that opens the gaze

for flood irrigation. Bmg-
ham advises that all turnout struC-
lures should be checked. low spots in
the dykes raised to the right level,
and drainage bitches cleaned out to

the flood period is over. Now is
good time, too, he said, TO seed
grass mixtures such as crested wheat
grass and bronze grass on all bare
dykes, ditch banks and reservoirs.

F0oultry
L OinterS

-Four out of ten chickens have the
misfortune of being infested with
worms" is the statement of poultry
experts. To substantiate this claim
they point to an official Illinois re-
port in which autopsieS on $500 chick
ems revealed that 40.3 percent harbored
intestinal parasites.
Other mvestigational sources indi-
cate an equal degree of infestation,
which would make it reasonable to
estimate that more than 40 million
out of the 426 million chickens in the
United States are infested with worms
today.
The loss in feed, egg production.
and stock due to this tremendous
worm infestation constitute a good
share of the $50 million dollar annual
loss from diseases and parasites re-
ported by the United States depart
ment of agriculture
Every pOultryman can avoid his
share OF this annual loss by treating
his flock to drive out the worms. STAR

is housed and keep up the fight tho

Winter Is the Time
To Overhaul Tractor

The time spent by the average trac-
tor operator on the seat of his tractor
during the year is equivalent to the
time required to drive around the
world at the equator in an automobile
travelling 40 miles per hour, some sta
tistician has figured out.
The moral that he was trying to
draw was that nobody would under
take an automobile trip of $4,000 miles
without being sure that his machine
was in the best possible working con-
dition. However, less thought is usually
given to the mechanical condition Of
a tractor at the beginning of the years
work than might be indicated by the
work that it Is to do.
Both economy and comfort may be
increased by careful attention to the
running condition of the tractor, and
the best time of the year to attend
to that detail is in the winter months
before the rush season begins.

PRIEST STRESSES
 JOBLESS PROBLEM
Unemployment Helps Coz operative Groups Says
 Monsignor Ligutti

A closer "producer to consumer" system which would give the profits to the middle man, consumer, and producer was advocated last night by Rt. Rev. Msgr. L. G. Ligutti, of Granger. Iowa, speaking at a meet ing of local cooperators at Lord Kitchener hall under the auspices of the Cooperative Consumers of Waterbury.
 Progress of the cooperative groups was attributed by the priest to url- employment problems of the recent past, decline of the birth rate, loos- ening of family ties, and the com- plex middle-man system.
 Msgr. Ligutti, who gave a radio address prior to the meeting, was introduced by Rev. Patrick J. Quin- Ian, of Wethersfleld, state leader in the cooperative movement. J. Lin- den Jaffe, chairman of the educa- tional committee of the local CO., operative society, introduced Father Quinlan.

A state highway department truck carrying four employees on their way to a road assignment in Harwin- ton crashed through a bridge over the Lead Mine Brook in Harwinton Thursday, but none of the man were injured. The men broke the wind shield and climbed from the cab tot safety.
 The men were Norman Barber, district foreman and driver of the truck, Charles Kirchofer, Arthur Szczesniak and Herman CastelI Their truck was heavily ladened with logs which were being taken from the Valley View farm in liar winton for their fence construc- tion project.
 The collapse of a supporting truss beneath the wooden bridge is be- lieved to have caused the accident A tractor aided the truck ill be- ing righted on the highway. No damage was done to the truck and it ran after being lighted on its own power.

Thomas F.Halpin, 91,
 Dies At Home Here
Old= Time Athlete Associated With Buckle Company
 for Years-Fmeral Services Monday Morning

Thomas F. Halptn, 91, one of the city's oldest and best known resi- dents, died yesterday afternoon at his home, 22O Washington street, af- ter an illness of several weeks.
 A native of Baltimore, Maryland, he was the son of Patrick and Ann CMcCalD Halpin and came to this city with his parents at the age of three. He was one of the most act- i've residents of the city in his younger days, taking part in many of the civic undertakings during that time. He served on the cityS' court of common council in 1880 and in 1889 and was also auditor council man in 1883.
 MT. Halpin became associated with the Waterbury Buckle company in 1864 when the firm was still in its infancy and he served the company for 63 years up to the time of his retirement in May 1927. For 51 years he held the position of foreman at the plant. He was held in high es- teem by his associate employees and officials of the company.
 An ardent sportsman, Mir. Halpin pitched for the old Rose Hill Base ball association of which he served in the capacity of president for sev- eral terms as well as in other offices He always maintained an active in- terest in sports and was greatly in- terested in the progress of various sports for the youths of the Wash ington Hill district.
 He was one of the first communi- cants of St. Francis Xavier's church and had been trustee since 1t was organized. He was member of the
