The record breaking crowd that was on hand to see the various dem- onstrations and to hear what (he vari- our experts had to say far exceeded the expectations. Mr. Davis was enthusi- astic and full of praise for the way that the farmers had taken hold of the trip. He was all the more pleased because this was the first field trip of any size ever held In Windham county. - Now that the possibilities of such get-to-gethers are realized. he believes that 'great bene- fits will be. derived from similar trips in’ the future. The object of Tuesday's excursion, ae- cording. to Mr. Davis. Was to visit farms which illustrate certain agricultural bus- iness practices and educational features.

Putnam citizens are to be called upon today (Wednesday) to decide whether or not they wish to appropriate a sum not to exceed $9.500 for the purpose of pur- chasing a motor driven hook and ladder fite iruck to replace the obsolete piecs! of apparatus that now stands useless in the: fire barn on Union square. The present hook and ladder. truck is horse- drawn, and no horses are available. In case of fire ladders must be moved by hand. which is almost impossible if they are needed any distance from the fire station. "At present as far as ladders are concerned, the Providence street bus- iness section of the city is unprotected. Mayor Marcy and the council, realizing the seriousnesd ‘of the situation, have asked for -the speecial- meeting. If the voters refuse . to appropriate the moned necessary “to buy the -new truck, then. the mayor feels. the consequences of whatever may happen as a result of not having ladders with which to fight fire, must be- borne by the cltizens. and nou by the council.. The polls will be oran from 9 until 3 At the meeting of Anselm Mayotte post.
