being built by the Forest Chemical Co.,

est and best chemicsl plants in this part
CT the state.
There is bad slump in the railroad
tie market at present, the railroads hav-
ing suspended purchases completely.
What the cause is no one seems able to
figure out, This has been one of the sta
BILE industries of this section for many
years. and dealers are left with immense
amounts on their by reason of the
shutdown. There seems to be general
understanding all along the line AZ none
of the roads are buying at the presen'
time. Work in the woods in this line
has been suspended for the time being,
or until it is known what is going to be
done with the product.
The REPUBLICAN has made arrange
ments whereby the New York Tribune
Farmer can be supplied TO old and new
subscribers at the remarkably low rate of
25 cents a year. The long winter eve
nings will soon be here and you will
want something, not only interesting but
highly profitable to read, and you can hit
on nothing better than this world-famed
farm and fireside magazine. Regular
subscribers get the paper by paying a
year in advance and 25 cents extra, and
new subscribers get it on the same terms.
Sample copies on application. Now is the
time to renew or subscribe. If
Adam Sibble, who has fine chestnut
orchard in connection with his farm on
German Hill, finds that while it pays to
care for and cultivate these choice nuts, it
does not always pay the man who owns
the orchard. His trees bore very well
this season and he should have had sever
al bushels for market this fall. but when
he came to harvest them found there were
others who were not sverse to helping
him out with his crop, saving him the
trouble ofpicking them off the ground.
He is not inclined to make fuss about il
this time, but another year thinks he will
be able to pick the nuts himself if given
the chance.
Often times we haye some one to tell
us when il is too late that we did OF make
mention of some one visiting them, and
the reason was that we did not know they
had visitors. A newspaper man is not
always mind reader and what we do get
we get by pumping" Now while we
do not want to make pump out of our
friends, still we wish you would help us
pump and when you know ofanyone GO
ing visiting or any item of news, call on
us and tell us about it, or send a note TO
the office. We will appreciate the favor.
Elk. This holds good in every news
paper Office, and friends can do much to-
ward making the paper more interesting.
Try it.
The REPUBLICAN to-day prese nts its
subscribers with handsome portrait of
President Roosevelt These portraits are
approved by the Republican National
Committee and are not a cheap wood cut
affair, but work of real art and worthy
of place in the finest home in the land,
when properly mounted and framed. We
trust our subscribers will preserve these
pictures of our excellent President who
has proven himself so popular with the
Ameaican people, and who will be again
chosen to preside over our destinies for
the next four years. We have few of
tie portraits left which those who would
like copy can have free OF charge by
calling at the office.
There is no season of the American
year which is not beautiful, yet were it
put to the vote of all manner of men,
perhaps October would be called the most
beautiful month of the entire year, even
more beautiful in its ripeness than is the
vernal month Of May, clad on as it may
be with tender q cen. The flame of the
naples the yellow and brown of the So
berer leaves, the touch of high-colored
berries or wild fruits of the woods-all
these things the sportsman knows, just
as he knows the melancholy but fasci-
mating monotony of the frost-struck
marshes where the wild fowl come. He
knows October as month beautiful and
delectable.- Field and Stream for Octo-

| About 80 ladies of the W. g. 7. U. and
few invited friends went up to the
County Home on Wednesday oflast week
with baskets heavy laden with good
things for picnic dinner. 1t had been
planned to have dinner out upon the
lawn, but as the weather was somewhat
threatening this was given up and two
tables were spread in one OF the spacious
dining rooms, where about fifty were
seated and partook of the most sumptu-
ous dinner, which seemed to be enjoyed
