One of the most unique ideas ever
 conceived for a poultry show is be-
 ing planned by the management of the Connecticut Fair which will be held at Charter Oak park, Hartford, September 6 to II, consisting, in
 brief, of complete reproduction of a gentlemans country estate. With a background of overhanging willows and green lawns, sandy snores and shaded walks, is to be constructed a tiny lake with it's little rock islands and its sparkling brook of an inlet. On it will be one of the most con- plete exhibition of water fowl, wild and domestic, ever seen in New Eng land. On the land will be as con- plete an exhibition of hens, chickens, geese and other land fowl, ranging from the uomely Plymouth Rock to the weird long-tailed pheasant. for ty-two classes are to be given to poultry, including American, Medi- terranean, Asiatic, English, Polish, Hamburg, French, Oriental, game, turkey, duck, geese and pheasant sections. For pigeons there will be 296 classes, including every known variety and sub-variety, with two money prizes in each class. In ad- dition to the money prizes there will be third ribbons in the poultry classes. Trials for homing pigeons, special classes for groups and pens and many other unusual features will combine to make the poultry show in it's unique surroundings one of the most notable ever held in Connecticut.

Walter Camp, who is considered the foremost figure and authority in
 the field of sports and games in America, has been engaged to write series of articles for the Century magazine during the coming year, be- ginning in November. The articles will cover the development of ath- letics in America-football, baseball,
 rowing, track athletics, golf, and ten nis- and he will treat these subjects especially with reference to sports in colleges.

Held at the Town Hall on Saturday

The meeting held in the Town hal
 on Saturday was attended by larg,

 producers, Hawleyville, Brookfield
 Bridgewater and Southbury being
 represented. William R. Finck ol
 Brewster, N. r., was there in the in.
 terest of the Dairymen's League
 This organization was started two
 years ago for the betterment of the
 milk producers and it seems to be
 working on sound principles. Proper
 organization is the only way the pro- ducer can meet the well organized
 body of dealers, and it is unfortunate
 but true that the farmers who are in a better condition to protect them selves than any other class, are yet

 cows. They already have 10000 and have workers in every milk produc- ing county in New York state and are now covering the Berkshire di- vision. The meeting was not long in organizing local branch with 32 members and 451 COWS. The officers elected were E. s. Lovel, president, T. E. Platt vice president, P. Fl. Me- Carthy secretary, c. L. Page treas urer. During the meeting an extract was read by J. B. Fairchild from Bulletin 57, Connecticut Experiment Station, showing "that the production of milk on the present basis was not a paying business and the dairyman obliged to draw on his capital to sup port his family" Compare this with the over-capitalized 40 per cent stock of the large milk companies and then wonder if the poor farmer will "join the union." In talking over the milk situation with the New York board of health man who was in town, last week, he expressed sur prise to the writer at the lack of concerted action on the part of the farmers. On all sides he heard the same complaint about the unproft- ableness of the milk business and yet the situation was entirely in the hands of the farmers. He volunteered 1 the information that he was person. ally acquainted with the president of one of the milk companies in New York who 10 years ago did not own a pair of shoe strings, but to-day was l millionaire. In the face of this is t any wonder that the farmers would How long will he submit o step forward and accept what is handed out to him without any re- sard to cost of production?

Buried deep in the ground, with n quantity of very high sade gold ore surrounding it. the skeleton of d man oi large stature was unearthed in the Tonto district few days ago toy SA Fagles, who reported his strange find in Globe.
 The ore Is very rich and has the sp- pearsnce of having been mined, prior to the time it was deposited around the body, whose homes were un- earthed. How the b,dy happened to be buried in the rich mineral rock is a mystery which cannot be explained. If the bones could tell of the strange fate of the man. long since buried, it Is probable that the mysterious dis appearance of one of many prospect ors who have started forth in search of natures treasure, never to be heard of again, would he cleared up
