Greenberger, P o e Devon Cattle wenu Big Attraction to Over a fhouund Visitors at 13th Annual ‘ciation—Other Interesting Exhibits. Fair of Lyme Grange Asso- . All roads led to Hamburg for the one-day fair on Wednesday. The at- tendance, which was abput 1,200, was not materially lessened by the threat- ennig weather conflitions throughout the day. The exhibits on the grounds and in the hall were all of high order and in every way the thirteenth an- nual fair and cattle show of the Lyme Grange association waas a thorough success. Early Wednesday morning the offi- cers of the association were at the grange grounds making final prepara- tions for the big day that comes 'to Hamburg once & year, Their work during these strenuous hours, follow- ing careful planning weeks before- hand, resulted in a day enjovable to everyone. The farmers and’cattle men were busy admiring and discuss- ing the merits of the 125 yoke of sleek oxen that were shown by breeders of the section, the fancy work in Grange hall engaged the attention of the wo- men folks, and the younger people were amused at the rifle gallery, the fortune teller’s tent and other stands about the grounds. All'were happy. Big Cattle Exhibit. The Devon cattle, as in former years, were the principal attraction, and this breed, which is raised al- most exclugively in the country around Hamburg, showed no signs of having lost any of its good points un- der the care of the farmers of Lyme. The long lines of exen yoked in pairs, occupied one side of the grounds, their dull red color being broken by only a few cattle of other breeds. Among the any exhibitors were James L. Re)nol:fi, North Lyme, with 15 pair, a number being of other breeds than Devon; John J. Tiftany, Hamburg, 9 pair; James Lord, Ham- burg, 11 yoke; Jared 8. Daniels, Ham- burg, and Richard W. Lee, Lyme, 5 pair each; Lyman Harding, Jr., 5 pair; C. Stark, North Lyme, 3 pair; C. S. Jewett, North Plains, 3 pair; G. and W. H. Griswold of Old Lyme, 5 pair; Edward J. Powers, Hamburg, 3 nai George Czikowski, Hamburg, 4 pair; Carleton Jewett, Hamburg, 3 pair. G. H. Strong and son had two fine yoke, S. S. Brown and H. B. Maynard of North Lyme each had a yoke of good- looking cattle. William Marvin of Hamburg was there with two attrac- tive appearing pairs; William H. Bogue, H. C. Pierson and Son, Alblon Holmes and Ray Harding, Hamburg, A. G. Sweet and L. O. Gates, North Lyme; John H Noble, W. Coult and R. C. Hall of Old Lyme, were creditably rep- resented. In Holsteins, L. P. Dessar had two splendid pair, while Dr. J. G. Ely of Hamburg received compliments on his yoke of that breed. A yeke that par- ticularly drew the eye of the cattle- wise was the four-year-old steers of Martin Banning of Hamburg. They are Devons of the purest blood, weigh 3,000, and their owner thinks that they can't be beat in the state. It is safe to say that, taken as a whole, the collection of Devon cattle seen Wednesday, at,_ Hamburg, would be hard to beat in New England. Prize Winners. The awards were made as follows, . H.

In the poultry and pets department, where Frank Beebe, Nianiyc,. was judge, ounality if not quantity - was shown this year. Among the exhibits were guined pigs, Miss Peterson, New London; bobtailed cats,Robert Sawyer, Hamburg; rabbits, Frank Beebe, Ni- antic; three Shropshire May lambs, Elmer Marvin, Hamburg; hoot owls, Fred Slate, Hamburg. Jap O’Connell of «New Lendon was at the fair this year as usual and his handsome coach,dog won the blue rib- bon. An interesting sight was the three-quarter wild ducks shown by William Otis Hamburg. John Mc- Neill, J. O. Manwaring and Mrs. M. E. Huntley were other exhibitors. Fruit and Vegetables. The fruit and vegetables, in charge of G. H. Strorg, on the lower floor of the hall, were quite up to the stand- ard and of most interesting variety. The most striking exhibit was that of the Connecticut Pomological society-in charge of Lodewick Bill. FEighty-five varieties of apples, pears, quinces and crabapples,.a portion of the soci- ety’s ‘exhibit at the state fair at Ber- lin, were shown. They were grown all over the state and were secured for the Hamburg fair through Mr. Bill Individual exhibitors were L. D. Hard- ing, Hamburg, peaches, pears, grapes, apples, etc., in large varlety; H. L. Reynolds, Hamburg, like. fruits; Bill Bros., apoles, pears and jet-black fleld corn; Elliott Ely, Hadlyme, Hubbard, Boston marrow and citron squashes, mammoth sunflower; Mrs. M. E. Huntley, yellow and red tomatoes, fruits, sweet, field and pop corn, egg plants, potatoes; G. and H." W. Gris- wold, Old Lyme, mammoth field pump- kins, egg plant, tomatoes, potatoes agd corn: George Miller, Hadlyme, onions, watermelons. Other growers were J. E. Rogers, Andrew McGraw, James E. Beebe, green peas; C. 8. Jewett, G. H. Strong, Mrs. J. W. Martin, Morris Peck, a mammoth sunflower; Ray Harding. The judges in this depart- ment were Hobart Mack of Fast Had- dam and Albert Hewitt of Groton. Fancy Work Display. Upstairs in the grange hall the la- dies were in their glory. On two sides of the room were the fancy work booths. In charge of one were Mrs. Willard Anderson and Mrs. James Beebe. Among +the many things shown were beautiful worsted and silkateen shawls, bureau scarfs, etc., by Mrs. Cyrus Roberts of Hamburg; knitted sweaters, Mrs. Emma ‘Webb, Chester; count®panes, Mrs. Zebulon ‘Warner, Hamburg; pillows, Mrs. Ka- tie Jewett and Miss Mabel Martin; Walachian embroidery, Mrs. Lizzie Beckwith, Hadlyme; knited lace, Mrs. Lizzie Rathbun, North Lyme; peacock tail fan, 100 years old, Mrs. Leroy Smith; hand made roges, Mrs. E. Burg. At the other beoth, in charge of Mrs. E. A. Webber, were shown cro- cheted quilts by Mrs. Z. B. Warner, calrziion work, Miss Christine Beebe; crochet work, Mrs. J. I. Raymond; Mexican drawn work, Mrs. Willlam Bump; craz, quilt, Mrs. 8. P. Sterling. The Ladles’ Benevolent society of the Congregaiigrgl churéh had a cor- ner booth, showing and selling f-ntcy' etes flere as at the other dooths, there was- work, rugs, quilts, ost cards, liberal patronage. Mrs. }J. E. Huntley, president, and Miss Carrie Bell, secre- tary of the society, were in charge. Display of Drawings. In the room were algo shown draw= ings of the pupils of the Valley and Starline Cisy sehacle, snd A heautitul collection of flowers of many varieties in charge of Mrs. Lodowick Bill. In the adjoining room were. shown paint- ings by New York artists, and in the next was the booth of A. W. T. so- ciety of the Valley Baptist church in charge of Mrs. J. E. Rogers, = Aprons, hand embroidered glove cases, hand- kerchiefs, met with a ready sale. Here Miss Jessie Beebe displayed 18 water colors of Hamburg scenes, which re- celved much commendation from vis- itors. The judges on the second floor were Miss Beth Thompson, Miss Car- rie Mack and Mrs. Daniel Miller. In the enclosure adjoining the hall hundreds of people enjoyed the dinner served by the ladies of the grange. Talk on Farming. In the afternoon, aftéer music by the Hadlyme band, which played during the day, H. B. Sisson, as chairman of the reception committee, introduced F. H. Stadtmueller of Hartford, president of the Connecticut Sheep Breeders’ as- sociation, who gave -a brief talk on Farming in General. His remarks were instructive. B. C. Paterson of Torring- ton, ex-master of the state grange, followed him, throwing light on the Benefits of the Grange, both in rela- tiop to the country at large and to Hamburg. Athletic Sports. Referee James E. Harding of Ham- burg then announced athletic sports, and under his direction, with Charles F. Beebe and William Marvin as judg- es, an interesting programme was run off, the events and winhers being: 75 yard dash, boys over 15, J. Francis, Chester; boys under 15, Harry Raw- son, Hamburg; shot put, Jobn Ives, Hamburg, 33 feet 4 1-2 inche§; broad jump, Tolle, N, Y, A. C., 18 feet; base- ball throw, and high jump, 4 feet 11 inches, William Holt, Ivoryton. The officers of the grange associa- tion, Jared S. Daniels, president; War- ren, Stark, secretary, and H. B. Sis- son, treasurer, worked hard and as the result when night came, they, wit hthe other members of Lyme grange, were able to look back on a day that was a genuine success. New England Hotels. Recent hotel improvements in Provi- dence lend interest to the efforts now being made in New Haven to provide tiat city with a public house adequate to its needs. A company has been formed, with State Senator Butter- worth as the chief mover, which pro- poles to erect a modern building on the site of the New Haven house— and probably on adjoining land also it this can be obtained. he name of “Taft hotel” is to be employed, the president, as Yales’ most famous grad- uvate, having given his assent to the proposal; and Charles P. Tafts’ finan- cial assistance, it appears, is assured for the scheme. New Haven deserves a first-class hotel. It is a city of con- siderably more than a hundred thou- sand inhabitants and has recently had a near-at-hand illustration, in the new hotel at Waterbury, of what a modern hostelry can do for the reputation of a community. Too few New England cites are provided with satisfactory hotel and railwav-station accommo- dations; - yet towns are very largely judged by these facilities—or the lack of them.—Providence Journal, Hint to Teachers.

It would be extremely interesting if somegplace could be provided where the manufactured articles produced in . Bristol, Terryville and ° Plainville could be exhibited. Suech a showing would surprise most people, and would inevitably increase interest in this section, It would also have education- al value.
