PUTNAM FAIR, Good Weather and Fine Attractions Result in Big Attendance—Some Lively Races—Awards Already An- nounced. Favored with a perfect day the Put- nam fair on Thursday was a magnet that drew a big attendance from all over eastern Connecticut and compen- sated in a degree for the havoe wronght by the storm of Wednesday. The ¢rowd came early and stayed late, enjoying every minute of the glorious hours and went home satisfied with everything to be seen within the gates. Good Ra There were three good races on the card and these held the attentlon of the majority of the throng throughout the afternoon. although the wild west show and exhibition halls held the greatest interest for many more. The various very worthy exhibits were constantly under the inspecting eyes of a well-pleased audience for they found many things to hold their “attention. This was particularly true in the floral section where the potted plants, ferns, palms a¥Md cut flower exhibits make up a beautiful display. The lddies’ de- partment also contains a great variety of dainty and chic examples of the needle work of the women of Wind- ham county and many of the visitors were enthusiastic in their praise of the beautiful pieces. Vegetable Exhibit. ‘While it is still somewhat early te secure the greatest variety of vegeta- ble products the entries of the various competitors for gragmiums constitute a fine collection of garden products and there are some extra fine spacimens in some of the collections. Considered as a whole the exhibits are very worthy. Poultry Show. The poultry section is béter than ever this y with more entries and rear a greater variety of breeds and at- tracted much attention from poultry men. All of Thursday afternoon there were many visitors to see the feathered tribe, but this was also true about every exhibit on the grounds. The crowd sifted through the buildings and up and down the midway where the non-silent salesmen were kept busy and punctuated the rambling with fre- quent visits to the track where there was something doing every minute, Wild West Show. Between the heats of the three speed events, running races between cow- bovs, cowgirls, Mexicans and Indians astride the snappy little bronchos with the wild west show were run off. These dashes down the home stretch took well with the crowd and a chariot race between two drivers from Kemyp's aggregation of fearless plainsmen made a hit. Driving their horses four abreast they circled the track at a grand old clip. their cheese cloth togas fluttering in the wind and when they flashed under the wire neck and neck they got a great hand from the stands.: . Acroba! Stunts. The Japanese acrobatic troupe of ten members nlgo gave a corking good exhibition of skill und nerve between the heats of the races and they were easily one of the hest thiugs seen at the fair.
