 Putnam Will Keep the Trade.
 A Webster business mems associa- tion at recent gathering talked of attracting the trade of Woodstock, Thom pson, including the Grosvenor- dales, to that place, because they re gard Webster the natural trading 3enter for the people of the places mentioned. t
 That may sound good in Webster and also may be a laudalble indication of an ambition to have the trade of the Connecticut towns mentioned, but as a matter of fact Putnam is. has been and probably will be for many years the natural and selected trading center for the majority of buyers from the towns of Woodstock and Thomp- son. Some of the people from the towns mentioned occasionally go to Webster but the bulk of their trad ing is done in Putnam. this statement excepting some of the mill operatives in the GrosVenordales, who divide their patronage between Putnam and Web st

 Need of Houses Imperative. Attention of interests here is again being called to the need of construc- ton of dwellings to take care of the people who are coming here to work ir the mills. but the response from persons who can afford to build is not very prompt.
 While some are favorably consider ing the proposition. interviews in va rious quarters indicate that there is a feeling that the manufacturing com panies interested should get busy and build some houses on their own ac- count It is pointed out that they have as much at stake as anyone con- cerned are generally understood to be strone financially and making a req sonable profit their investments, and, if future development and addi- tionaI profits: depend on the operation of more machinery by an added num- Der of operatives, their own interests therefore demand that they themselves pl ovide some of the needed homes.
 Such building activity on the part of the manufacturing companies might spur others on to build as an invest ment, as has been the case in Wind ham county towns that have enjoyed industrial and building booms within the past five years. Plainfield has shown an extraordinary growth, but the great percentage of the dwellings erected have been put up by the mill companies, and there is nothing to in dicate that it has not been an excellent investment.
