Sibley of New Haven on a per centage basis. Mr. Sibley, who makes a specialty of bridges, both of steel and concrete, agrees to have all of the steel erected “and the trolley area and one half of the roadway finished before cold weather sets in and it is possible that the entire bridge will be completed by that time. The present structure is very old and has outlived its usefulness. Last win- ter a limit was placed by the selectmen on the size of the loads passing over the bridge. The present bridge ‘has six trusses, three on each side of the trolley area and the trolley area is supported by two plate girders. The new bridge will have four plate girders, four fest deep, two on each side of the trolley arez. On top of the girders will be 15 inch Bethlehem beams, spaced 4 feet by 8 inches on centers. ©n top of these beams will be 8 inches of concrete with a wearing surface on top of that. The sidewalks will be of concrete and the same iron railing will be replaced in the concrete. The bridge is designed for a load of 100 pounds per square foot of surface or a 16 ton road roller or truck. The trolley area will be finished the same as {he rest of the roadway. The design of the work is by Chand- ler and Palmer and they will have charge of the construction. Selectman Casper K. Bailey hashad all of the important bridzes in the town gone over to see that they are in prop- er condition, ’cmzr JUSTICE PRENTICE 1 TO RETIRE FROM BENCH Chief Justice Samuel Oscar Prentice will, on account of his reaching the age limit of seventy years, retire from the | supreme court of errors August 3.

At a meeting held the latter part of July a number of projects were dis- cussed for the community ‘and it was found that the improvement of the dairy herds, control of fruit diseases, and- bet- ter methods of buying farm - prodycts were the most important things to be worked out in that community. At that meeting 4 committee made up of H. R. Whitman, O. R Dimmock; E. S. Barrett, Hugh MacKenzie and Ellery Allyn were appointed to go over these projects and draw up recommendations to be consid- ered at the next meeting. The next meeting was he'd on’ August 2 and H. H. Whitman as-chairman of the committee brought in the following eport. He stated that the committee had considered carefully the - projects that had been lined up and suggested the addition of the improvement of the pou. try stock to the other projects. The committee recommended that leaders be pkwed definitely in charge of each one of these projects to make uUp-a COM- munity committee. The. following men were elected at this meeting 10 be ‘in charge of the projects: O. H. Dimmock in charge of dairy project; C. E. Chap- man in charge of the fruit project with’ W. W. Wright: H. H. Leland in charge of the pouitry project; and H. R. Whit- man to have charge of the project. look- ing toward the growing of better rough- ages. Mr. Whitman also reported on the marketing project, stating that it was the feeling of the committee that-coop- erative work in marketing could be.done to advantage in this community. Arthur Shedd, manager of the Preston Coopera- tive Exchange, then gave a talk on the work of this organization. He stated that the Preston KExchange had dope a business of between $25.000 and $30,000 durirg the last year and had saved the farmers a large amount of money. He brought out very forcibly the fact that the members of this exchange put in their orders hefore cars were ordered. out and paid cash at car door when the car arrived, thereby getting out of retailer's charges for overhead expenses. The chairman of the meeting then called for a show of hands as to how many were in favor of organizing a cooperative or- ganization and the majority of those present signified that thev were interest- i ed in seeing tnis done. After some di cussion it w suggested that the capi- tol stock is set at $10,000, divided into 400 shares of $25 each. A motion was made and carried that a committee of seven men he:appointed by the chair.to have charge of canvassing the territory in an effort to secure as many subscrip- tion as possible who were mot present at the meeting: C. B. Kenvon. Hugh| MacKenzie, J. H. Brigham, T. W. Wood, ! Staniey D. Morzan, Ellery Allyn-and H., H. Whitman were appointed by Cha't- man Dimmock. The committes elected . Mr. Whitman chairman and’ made im-! mediate plans for covering the- territory in the near. future and set the date of the organization meeting for subscrib- ers for Auzust 16.

The present freight rate on coal from Pennsylvania mines to New London .10 per ton. Under the new Ttu e Interstate Commerce commi freigint rates are to be increasde 40 per cent., which would bring the freight on coal from the mines to this | sulis on coal shinned: here by rail. The coal companies Wwill not of course pay the increased freizht charges, and they wiil fall upon the shoulders of the consum- ers. Car shortage at the mines. according to dealers is still acute and no noticen- ble improvement in the shipment of coal to this district has been discerned since the Interstate Commerce commission rui- ing giving priority to shipments to New England went into effect last Monday. Dealers state that period since the order went into effect is too short to allow the proper judgment as to the ecffect of the ruling. The small mines are also playing an important part in keeping the price of coal high, for these small mines do not fill contracts, but sell in the apen mar- kets. And because the interstate com- merce commission was originally called into existence to sée that the little mines were not squeezed out by the larger ones, these small mines have no difficulty in getting cars. - A few cars fo each of these small mines means many in the s"‘; |parked in other strecte. |about - | held. {Height at {terhber ” lThe Lyons Co, ._ Wauregan Block .
