Specimens of Native Grown Wheat

Calvin Spinney of the town of Thompson brought to Putnam Satur- day and presented to Attorney Charles L. Torrey a sheaf of wheat grown on the Spinney place. MT. Spinney has several acres of the wheat and 1t will be ready for harvesting next week The wheat is of excellent quality. Wheat growing is now a rare agricultural speciality In this part of Connecticut. There was time, many years ago, when much wheat was grown on Windham county soil, but its culture has come to be thing of the past. It is stated, however, that the very few people in this vicinity who now pay any attention to wheat growing and meet with success find in the market an opportunity to make considerable profit at the present high prices above what it costs to produce the grain.

A travelling man who was in the city Wednesday had his own private theory as regards reducing the high cost of living. He said let the state distribute farms to anyone willing to work them and let the beneficiaries pay small price, payments so much a year. This enhanced production would, he thought, bring down the price of commodities to the consumer. The man sold to factories. He said that few manufacturers were making any money and that they were in an unsettled condition owing to labor troubles or threatened troubles.
 Eugene Vieau, at one time a resi- dent of this city, died in Worcester Wednesday.

Vacation Time

We are now in the midst of the an nual vacation time, and :the personal columns of the local press are filled with items that this one and that one are at one place or another for period of one or two weeks enjoying their an- nual change of scene, rest, and recrea- tion.
 The person drawing "pay" and the person drawing a small "salary" have been saving throughout tae year for this annual event, and will spend the money with an easy conscience. It has been earned by honest toll and saved at some sacrifice, and it's expen- allure will give pleasure long antici- pated. It will be the shortest period in the year for the yacationizer, or seemingly the shortest, but 1t will serve it's several purposes, a good time, rest, and a return to work with new life and ambition, with pleasant rec ollection of the past, and joyous an- ticipalion for another years outing.
