With Branch to Chepatchet, R. l.— Plan of New Company to be Devel oped at Once. George L. Baldwin, station agent In Putnam, has formulated a plan and taken steps for the incorporation of a company to construct a_passenger and freight carrying rallroad from Putnam to Stafford Springs, the proposed route being to South Woodstock, thence pust Roseland Park to Bast Woodstock, North Woodstock, West Woodstock to Hastford passing near Wodstock Valley, thence past Crystal Lake to North Ashford, through Bos- ton Hollow to Westford, Stafford, Staf- fraville, Stafford Hollow to Stafford Springs, a total of about 31-miles. Al- S0 a branch from Putnam easterly through East Putnam to Chepatchet, R. L, there to conect with the trolley line to Providence, a distance of 12 miles. Through Fine Territery. The proposed system extends through a rich undeveloped country, and one which would in a short time double in value with means provided for the transportation of passengers and freight. The road would be an im- portant feeder for the New Haven system as there are large quantities of lumber throughout this section awaiting transportation facilities, as well as large productive farms, water power sites, beautiful sites for hotels, fina camping grounds about the vari- ous lakes and hills and many other un- developed advantages. In addition, for the people now dwelling in this sec- tion, and isolated from railroads it would mean quick and cheap trans- portation from farm to rallroad and city market for milk, produce, lumber, the mail and parcel post, and from city market to farm of fertilizers, grain machinery, etc. Tt will also be a great convenience to the many small mills along the streams for the receipt of raw material, coal and supplies and the transportation of the manufactured product to market.
