Although the scarc- is felt in all branches of labor the labor is most pro- scarce. The Connecticut facturers’ association reports that s an acute shortage of unskilled 4 lsbor in Connecticut and that iE than 1,000 could be given work Emmediately. The report states further that if the conditions of industry were mormal production could not be main- tained because of the shortage.

The report also states that Connecticut is the first dis- trict to feel the effects of the immigra- tion changes. ki A report from the Connecticut- labor department shows that the scarclty of labor {s general throughout the state, that it is. felt especially among the factories, and that the shops are giving out fairly normal production. ‘The United States employment - bureau 'states that there is a scarcity of all kinds of unskilled labor and that any. man may get steady and permanent work-of that nature. Wages they say have been forced up by the scarcity, but’ mot to an extent to be extraordinary. It is expected that the end of the harvest season will return a large number of agricultural laborers.to the city and that an employment of them in the fae- tortes will relieve the situation. Left Relatives in Mystic Mrs. James P. Donovan of 56 Washing- ton street, who dled Saturday night left besides her husband and her son, Royce C. Wolfe, her parents, Capt. and Mrs. F. W.

Although the crowd was not as large today as has .been the case on some “big” days of the past, there was g fine attendance.

The assoctation’s activitfes in the interegt of better dairy herds wers reflected in the cattle show, where some. remarkably fine animals competed_for the awards of- fered by the fair soclety. E. C. Rogers of this city showed 16 ure bred . Holstein-Fresians, headed by his herd bull, a blue ribbon ‘Wwinner it the fair, as were others of the individ- uals he exhibited. = The Buell farm or Bastford had other fine cattle entries as dld -exhibitors from™a. number, of. towns.

Various models of different makes were shown to many who find more of interest in 2 trim looking car than in the finest herd of cattle or team of horses. C.

In. the exhibition hall ‘a -~number of Putnam business men have displays of household equipment, musical - instru- ments, heéaters, etc., while elsewhére on the ground ' agricultural machinery and motors for farm purposes are snown.

The Ninigret Co. and Tex- tile Noveity Co. have also posted no- tices of a raise in wages to take effect October 2.

Westerly was placed in the sixth di trict out of the seven coal districts which division of the state has been made to insure and equal distribution of hard coal. Hopkinton, Richmond Charlestown are also in the sixth division. This was deemed wise by state officials, as this will insure the towns of having their amounts allotted which was caused by the miners' recent strike. Fuel ad- ministrator George H. Webb will be kept informed as to the need of each district 60 days'in advance, Homes, hospitals, schools nad public institutions are to be given special _consideration, and - the committees will obtain information as to their coal needs in each district from the dealers.
