MADISON.

Special Journal Courier News Service !
 Madison, Sept, 1s-Capt. Thad c. Camp is all out of sorts; he says the season Is not only a late one-a dry one, but queer one-for years he has cut the top stalks off of his corn so the August or September gales won't blow the corn over, expecting the same con- ditions to occur this year, he went at the job. Early and late, large drops of sweat from his, manly head fell. about the only moisture that fell all summer to revive his corn, but they fell on the ground while he labored faithfully to beat the old blow, who has annually for years come and left crook ed cornstalks and twisted apple tree limbs and debris of many kinds strewn about the fields and yet August has come, no blaw, September more than half gone, no blow Whether it has held off because he took that trip to the lobsted matching grounds with Gov. Woodruff-and the other farmers and fishermen-he don't know, or if 1t is due to the quietlng effect of the fine ot s2oOoo,0o0 of Judge I,andis-or the fore runner of @ democratic president he don't know. At any rate the fall blow never missed us before.

Wallingford, Sept. 19.-That the con- dition of the outlying schools of Wal lingford is to receive needed attention is almost certain. The board of school visitorse have the following to say of the schools in their annual report con- cerning the consolidation:
 "We are of opinion that the consol- idation of all the school districts of the town into one town board of edu- cation, which would have full charge of the schools of the town, is the only efficient way of maintaining our schools with good standards and best economy"
 The town has at present nine school districts. Each of these have their own committeeman whose duties in- clude the employment of teachers, pay ing the general expenses of the school, the custody of the school buildings and the repairs. Tn order that the matter may be brought up before the next annual town meeting the following pe- tiion is being circulated among the citizens:
 ITO the selectmen of the Town of Wallingford:
 "The undersigned legal voters of the town of Wallingford request that pro- vision be made for taking ballot at the annual town meeting, to be held on the first Monday of October, 1907, aS to whether tha town will abolish all the school districts and parts of school districts within its limits and assume and maintain control of the public schools therein, commencing on the first Monday of July, 1908, in the man. her provided by statute for the con- solidation of school districts.
 And that you cause proper notice of said proposed action to be inserted in the call for said annual town meet ing.
