POULTRY ASSOCIATION
Progress Is Reported at a Meeting
 Held Last Week.

The adjourned meeting of the Ga. naan Poultry Association was held in the Hose House, Canaan, September 26. The president and secretary were on hand as voted in the preceding meeting. The purpose of the meeting was to hear reports of committees ap. pointed at preceding meeting to solicit advertising and specials to be placed upon birds. Both committees reported progress but the time to work was re- ported to be too short. Charles Pease and William Reel are anxious to get as muck advertising as possible for the premium list to be issued little later. MT. Stone wishes to receive still more contributions for special prizes to be awarded to owners of winning birds. The cost of advertisements is $1.00 for I page $1.75 for Il page and $3. co for a full page. Any sum of money, birds or articles useful to poultry men will be gladly received as special prizes.
 The question of dates for show was discussed and it was found to be un. wise to change the dates from those fixed, Dec. 4. 5, 6 because of dates of other shows and the fact that judges were engaged for those dates.
 After much discussion aud a review of work thus far done it was voted to adjourn until Thursday. Oct. II at 8 P. M.

JOHN FULLER TRANSFERRED
Tells of His Experience at Camp
 Devens, Aver, Mass.

Corporal John R. Fuller, U. S. A., spent few hours in town on Monday, enroute to Washington, D. O., where he will join the field supply section for gas defense of the sanitary corps. He had orders to report to the commandant at Washington on Tuesday, and also permission to spend few honrs with his parents, who, needless to say, were greatly pleased at his unexpected visit.
 Corporal Fuller stated that life at the training camp was not all bad. The food was good, as a rule, and consisted of cereal, beans or hash, bread and coffee, for breakfast. For dinner soup, stewed or boiled meat, potatoes and bread, and sometimes pudding or stewed fruit, were served. Each com pany is given about .3912 cents per day for each man, and all of this money must De spent on food. To date the company to which Corp. Fuller belonged, were several hundred dollars ahead. and the boys are now enjoying chicken dinners occasionally.
 Every day each company must line up and be examined by doctor. If any are sick, they musts file report before 4 100 o'clock each day, and are either ordered to stay in their barracks or taken to the hospital. The hospital is an institution in itself, and has a capacity of 5000 men. If soldier is shamming it will be quickly dis covered by the doctors and he is ordered back to duty.
 In the matter of cleanliness, the dining room is scrubbed twice each day. The sleeping quarters are in charge of the corporals, who also have charge of the mail. Different men are picked frontthe squads and are ordered to do the necessary work about the barracks which includes sweeping three times each day.
 During the innoculaton, at which time several men faintedT 12O men were examined an hour. They were divested of all clothing, which was placed in pile, and after being Inocu- lated, were put through 8 severe phy sical examination. The Canaan boys stood the test well, not one of them fainting When asked if it was the pain which made the men faint, Cor poral Fuller stated that it was not. It was watching the men get the needle stuck into their arms, which undoubt4a edly played on their nerves.
 The last six men from North Canaan, arrived safely, and except for little homesickness, which will wear off when they get down to real work, the boys appeared to be in good spirits. It is not exactly Sunday school picnic, neither is the work so hard that it be. comes burdensome.

THIRD QUOTA LEAVES
Another 40 Per Cent of Drafted Men
 Go to Aver. Mass.

Six more Canaan boys left for Camp Devens Wednesday evening. The third quota, or 10 per cent from this town, were represented by Edward Hunker, Fred Dieter, John Graves, Fred San ford, Howard Brewster and Clinton J. Miller. They were given fitting send off by the Home Guard, Canaan band and large number of townspeople. [
 The 47 men left Winsted at 6:5I last Thursday morning for Hartford, on the first leg of the journey to Aver, Mass, they had with them George Washington, in the flesh, for would be soldier answering to that name came from Salisbury to report for ser. vice. He was greeted with cheers, as he responded to the name at roll-call. There were but two absentees when the roll was called Wednesday night. Theodore Garrison of sharon and Vic. tor Gamoroni of Salisbury, but these men reported later. The men were under the charge of Harold McGauley of Winted and Herbert Catlin. of Kent.
 John McGrane who failed to appear "hNh AOA On A previous draft, was taken into custody Tuesday. Upon orders from Chairman Roraback, he was physically examined Wednesday night, and having passed, left for Aver Thursday.
 Baptiste Pera of North Canaan who had been in Litohfield jail since the fore part of July, having threatened the life of his former sweetheart had his case nolled by Judge Maltbie in the superior court and he was brought to Winsted by Deputy Sheriff J. E. Wheeler last Wednesday evening.
 Pera left for Aver with the other draftees Thursday morning; before leaving he was presented with & sweater by the ladies of Canaan and also an army kit. For the very good reason that he could not break through the bars at Litchfeld he could not answer to his name when the first call of the drafted men was made.
 Chairman Roraback made parting plea to the men that they conduct themselves on the trip as gentlemen and reminded them that the captains appointed had full authority over them enroute.
