templated improvements now under way

thousand dollars in improving the place
and surroundings and the entire prop
erty will be ,modernized and put in first
class shape. Two additional farms ad-
joining have been purchased and Joined
to the landed estate, making a farm of
over 300 acres. The interior of the hotel
has been almost completely torn out
and remodeled and the roof removed
and a more modern one put in it's place.
New doors and windows have been add
ed and all the rooms replastered and
papered. A gas plant has been enstalled
and hot and cold water brought into
every room. When the painters have

also come in for their share of improve

property will become one of the most
delightful summer homes in this section
of the state. Mr.. Bliven is sparing no
expense to make it so.

front of and adjoining all village prop-
