 To Improve State Highway.
 Putnam people are pleased over the announcement that the time is at hand for the letting of the contract to build the piece of state road that will give an unbroken> stretch of improved highway between this city and Dan- ielson by way of Killingly avenue.

The improvement to be made will probably not be com- .pleted until some time next summer on account of the letting of the con- tract so late this year.
