HAVE SHEET EXHIBIT Fair time will soon be here, and it may not be amiss to call the attention of those who may be interested to two or three of the things which they will ind in connection with this year's| exhibit, savs a statement 1ssued by the county agent at the Thayer building on Fri We are gradually coming to a real- ization of the fact that New Longdon county offers very considerable op- portunity in sheep raising, an industry which has been coming back into fa- vor very rapidly during the nast few years. There are a good many farms in the county where a few sheep could be kept to good advantage, and in or- der-to call attention to the subject at what seems to be an opportune time. a part of the Farm Bureau exhibit will be devoted to sheep, and their possi- bilitiés in this county. R. E. Begg, who has recently come from Ontario, Canada, to join the staff of the college, at Storrs, will have charge of this ex- hibit, and has promised to give one or two short talks on sheep manage- ment which will be practical, based on his own experience in the work, and | well worth while. These talks will come on Tuesdar and Wednesday. at hours to be announced later. Some of our farmers are quite in-| terested in the tractor proposition. We' had hoped to stage a demonstration of several different {vpes of tractors, this fall. but only two or three of the twelve tractor agencies invited to par- ticipate in this demonstration found it conventient to do so, and as a sub- stitute for the other plan thess trac-, fors have been invited to exhibit at the | | fair. where more farmers will have a chance to see them. The Ferdson and Cleveland tractors will be on, hand, also, we hope the International, and this will be our chance to see what | they can do. i We have also asked several of the, representatives of milking machines to be on hand at the fair. and hope! for favorable replies from them. ~We are already sure of an exhibit of the! Empire. with possibly two others. On some of our farms with good help searce and growing more so, the milk- - ing machine is being given really se- rious consideration, and we hope it possible to.have three or four types on hand, so that the men who are in- ! terected may have a_chance to see for themselves the zood and Lad. points of the different types.

It is expected that the present bridge will be unable to withstand the heavy volume of traf- fic which will pass over it when the new bridge is opened and a new bridge may be necessary. Just what will be done is not known as yet. The city has engaged Messrs. Greenwood and Noer of Hartford, ex- pert bridge enginecers to investigate the condition of the present bridge and adivse as to what should be dore. It is expepcted that this examination will be made within a few days. It will depend upon the report on the condition of the bridge and just what is needed to be done before it can be determined whether the city 1st Price $200. ...

If it is found that lit, s not strong enough for highway | traffic, then the city will have to bear part of the expense. The state does not share in the ex- pense in either case, the state having brought the approach to the T river highway bridgze up to Cr: avenue within a few feet of the Crys- tal avenue bridge. An attempt was made to have the state continue its ap- proach to Main street, which would have necessitated the state impproving the Crystal avenue bridge, but it re- fused, so that the project becomes a city matter.
