POULTRY ASSOCIATE

POULTRY ASSOCIATION ORGANIZED.
The poultry tanciers in Watertown and
surrounding towns are enthusiastic over
the poultry association recently formed
in Waterbury. About 40 members joined
at the start and it is expected that sever
al hundred will be on the roll within
short time. The promoters expect to
give three-days' poultry show in Wa
terbury probably about the first week III
January. They say that all the surround
ing towns, both down and up the valley,
have held successful shows in past years
and they can't see why Waterbury with
it's $4,000 population cannot support
good show. John D. MCGOWAN, who is
one of the leaders among poultry men in
Watertown, is financial secretary of the
new organization and is enthusiastic in
regard to iss future. IT the people of
Waterbury and surrounding towns will
only turn to and push the thing slong
there will be no question as to it's success.

A CORRECTION.

The statement in the last issue Of the
BEE that a syndicate of New Milford gen.
tlemen headed by Il. 8. Mygatt had pur-
chased the large tract of land on the
south shore of Lake Waramaug near
Loomarwick is incorrect. Mr. Mygatt
bought the property alone and there is
no syndicate connected with the pur-
chase. The tract is very fine one and
will be developed for building sites, at
fording some of the choicest situations
on the lake.
