Edmund Halladay. - Edmund Halladay, aged 62 years, town clerk of Suffield, and ome of the ‘best known tobacco growers in the state, died at 3 o’'clock Friday morn- ing at his home on North Main street, Suffield, from a complication of dis- eases. Mr. Halladay was born at Suffieid May 8, -1852. -He was elected by the republicans to the legislature in 1885. He was a member of the state board oi agriculture for 14 years and president of the New England Tobacco Growers’ association for several years. He was a director of the Connecticut Agricultural college and experiment station at Storrs for several years and one of the organizers of the Suffield Agricultural association, in which up to the time of his death, he was an active member. Local society people who have dined at Kenneth Ridge, Watch Hill, during the summer, read with surprise in New York papers that Mrs. Daniel J. Sully, wife of the former cotton king, has started a cake shop in New York. By the New Haven road's new freight rules, which went. into effect on Friday, only those having credit slips' for freight will be able to. re- ceive their freight on authorized credit, that is, paying each week for the goods received. There’s a marked distinction between the Feed we sell and the so-called Feed offered by some dealers. We don’t talk cheapness; that is a snare, but we do talk merit and value. We offer no fake schemes to catch your trade, no specious arguments to warp your judg- ment, but just plain; good quality and fair dealing. Honest Feed at honest price, and the best value for your money in the town. CHAS. SLOSBERG 3 Cove Street Sheriff Sidney A.
