DROUGllT HAS 6051 STATE
FARMERS OVER $5,000,000
HARTFORD, Conn., July 81.—
Losses of more than $5,250,060 have
been caused the farmers throughout
Lonnecticut by the present drought
according to a. survey conducted by
the Hartford Times today. County
agricultural agents of the several
county farm bureaus report that the
potato, tobacco, second hay crops
and the pasturago lands have been
mostly affected by the lack-of rain.
Hartford county leads the state in a.
total loss of $3,500,000. The county
agents report the following losses
for the other districts. New Haven
county $1,000,000; Falrfield county.
$300,000; New London county $200.-
000: Tollnnd county. $175,000; Mid-
dlessex county, $50,000 at the very
minimum; Windham county. $5.000.
Litchfield county has not as yet re-
ported the exact losses.
Hartford County.
In Hartford county the tobacco
crop is already thirty per cent ruin-
ed with a. resulting loss of $3,000.-
000. The county agricultural agent
further estimates the loss on the po—
tato crop to be more than $147,000
with. that on Rowen or the second
hay crop to total at least $250,000.
The pastures have been severely af-
fected by the drought and a. loss of
at least $100,000 has already been
affected. The loss of the vegetable
crop is more than $50,000 with the
tomato crop mostly involved.
Discussing in greater detail the
losses to the several crops Mr.
Southwick asserted that tho soutn—
ern part of the county was Worse hit.
than the northern section. Both the
llavana seed and broad leaf crops
of tobacco are hurt. Fields around
the towns of Glastonbury. east Hart~
ford, Manchester. \Vlndsor and
South \Vindsor has suffered severe-
ly. Should the drought last through
the week it is expected that four-
fifths of the entire crop will be irre-
trlevably ruined. -
Hay Crop Bad.
Next to the tobacco crop the sec-
ond hay or rowen crop is in the
worst condition. According to the
county agricultural agent the state
secretary of agriculture Leonard H.
about laundry bills and such unim-
portant things.
"I am very unhappy that I didn't
know more about her mfore I mar-
ried her. 1 only saw her four or
five times before we were married."
Asked about financial difficulties
of the match. Count Morncr said
that ho had told Peggy before they‘
were married that his incomejvaa
small and he would not be able to
support her in the manner to which
she had been accustomed. She told
him, he said. set to worry—that she
had sufficient.
Count ‘Norner denied that he had
ever asked for financial aid from
Peggy. "I gave her money and was
a good husband as far as I could
be," he said.
“My only crime." he concluded.
“is that I am not rich enough."
Pealey. about 25 per cent of the
crop is ruined. More than ten thou~
sand tons of hay are thus lost to
the farmers.
The early peach crop is stunted in
size and what promised to be u bon-
ner year has proved almost abnor-
mally poor.
The Silage corn crop in urioull)’
affected while the sweet corn crop
is damaged to theextentof 35 per
cent of the total acreage.
"The present drought has created
a. very serious situation in New Ho.-
ven county." reports Raymond
Clapp, county agricultural agent for
that county. The loss to the poo-
tures amounts to more than $400.-
000. Territory around the towns of

at interesting prices
Most interesting fact of August fur news is:—
Fur coats of beauty and newest modelspare to
be had at prices far less than those of last August.
The difference is marked.
No wrap has the rich flattering beauty of fur.
A fur wrap or coat may be worn for many dif-
ferent occasions, so the money always seems well
invested—more so at these prices.
The pelts in the coats are silky and rich—buy-
ing them early you get first choice of finest skins.
'The workmanship is dependable—These coats
were made when there was no rush of orders—so
they. are practically perfect in detail.
Only the finest silks are used for linings—most
of the linings are what might be termed handsome
or luxurious.
, Another lavish fur season is coming—furs will
play a regal part in this F all’s costuming.
The style? we are showing are authentic—the
long graceful lines have been established beyond a
doubt—No style is more becoming to the average
Woman. There will be short models for sport wear
or forgthe young miss—these we show in lavish array.
This August event affords an excellent oppor-
tunity to anticipate the season with profit to yourself.
