Probably Smaller Than in Recent
 Years.

It is probable that the figures now being compiled by the assessors will show a smaller amount invested in building operations in Killingly during 1910 than has been the case for several years past. There have been no large buildings constructed during the past eleven months, although several dwell ings have gone up and some additions made to business and manufacturing places. Totals in other recent years have been increased by the construc- ton of the mills at Industrial place, while other expensive new structures, not taxable. are the high school and the central fire station.
