Association Middlesex Ministerial Papers at State Library. In accordance with a recent vote passed- by the Middlesex Minister: association, Rev. Willlam B. Hubb: of Centerbrook has deposited in the state library the official records and files of the association from the be- ginning, consisting of six manuscript volumes and several bundles of pa- pers. The documents are in a small paper-lined, oval-topped, wrought iron bandled, brass tacked hair, trunk, so common in the days of our grand- fathers. Volume T contains the acts of the Consoclation of the county of New London. At a meeting of the elders and messengers of the county of New London, convened at New Londom March 2, 1708-1709, in order to form one or more consoclations, were dele- gates~from churches in New London. Stonington, Norwich, Preston, Lyme. Faybrook, Killingworth, Plainfield and _ebanon. Their names appear on tne title page of this volume, along wich an_account of the meeting. When the Saybrook tform went into operation the ministers living within the present limits of Middlesex association belonged to the associa- tions in the counties of New Londo1 and Hartford. They and their church- es were also connected with the con- sociation in those counties. The erec- tion of Middlesex courty in 1785, con- sting of towns taken from the coune es of New London and Hartford. opened the way for an ecclesiastical evening postofiice for the week change, and the Middlesex association was formed It is this fact of the formation of the Middlesex association from a part of the membership of the New London consociation that explains the presence of the acts of the New London conso- ciation in the records of the Middlesex association.

NEW STRAIN OF TOBACCO MAKES GOOD SHOWING. Refuses to Blossom, But Keeps Pro- ducing Leaves. New Haven, Conn., June 12.—An in- teresting account of a curious new scrain or “sport” of tobacco is given in the report of the plant breeder of ihe agricultural station here, ma le public today. In a field which cdn- tained many thousand plants of Hazel- wood Cuban tobacco, grown from seed carcfully selected for years for its uni- formity in production, there sudde.ly sppeared two years ago three plants which, unlike the others in the fleld, refused to blossom, but kept produciag lcaves. The owner, J. B. Steward, moved the plants to pots and brougat them to the station greenhouse here. They blossomed about midwinter and yizlded considerable seed. This seed was sown 1n the spring of 1913 and @bout one-third of an acre was plant- ,cd with it. All the plants resembled their imme- | diate parents and bore from 62 to. 3) leaves instead of the 16 to 25 leaves usual in tobacco of this class. Abouat 31 leaves per plant were harvested from this new “Stewart” type and only 18 from Hazelwood variet; From an equal number of plants ti Stewart y:elded 194 pounds of cured leaf to ev- ery 100 pounds of the Hazelwood.
