Some Birds Are "Sprinters."

Birds with short, square wings, like
the king bird, quail and ruffled grouse,
are sprinters; those with a wide
stretch of wings are distance run
ners." Birds of the first class attain
their bursts of speed through their
very rapid wing stroke; birds of the
second class have sustained powers of
flight, but get under way more slowly.
All the gallinaceous fowl are sprint
ers. They take wing like a bullet {;
their wings make a loud, whirring
sound The quail or ruffied grouse can
gain full momentum within sixty feet
of rising; the wings beat from five to
seven times a second. The quail COW
ars from forty-five to fifty feet the first
second away from the gun; his wings
fash like rapidly revolving wheel
The wings of the ruffied grouse roar
until the sound can be heard 200 yards
away.

Great Quantity Of Knitting Needed for
Soldiers

All who are at work upon Red Cross
knitting are urged to hand in the
finished garments as soon as possible,
since an urgent call has come from
Division Headquarters for such arti.
Giles. A cablegram from France from
Grayson NJ. P. Murphy says: "Every-
one here looks to America. Begin
shipping at once 900, 600 each of warm
knitted wooden articles already re-
quested. They must come before cold
weather, and in view of shortage OF
fuel and other discomforts, they will
be of incredible value in both military
and civilian work. The Atlantic
Division, to which the Putnam Chap
ter belongs, is.asked TO supply 100000
of these sets and the local chapter
wishes to ship its full share as soon as
possible.

Norwich. September srd. 18th and sth

The opening of the County Fair of
New London County Agricultural So
ciety at Norwich, Conn, on Septem.
Der 3, will mark the sixty-third year
OF the society and never a break has
happened to mar the record of fairs.
Through the stormy period of our
great Civil War the society carried out
its fairs and now In the period of even
greater stress and turmoil the society
has prepared for another great War
Fair.
The best products OF the fields, egTi-
cultural and horticultural, will be
brought to the Fair by the growers in
competition for the many prizes Of
fered by the society and these will
serve as models 10 others in the difec-
ton of the Nations effort TO produce
more foodstufts.
There will be exhibits and demon
STATIONS which will interest the wo-
men in more efficient home making
and home keeping, that home life may
be made more efficient, that more
economy may be practieed on cooling
and food conservation. 1t is safe TO
say at this early date that the exhibits
of home canned products and economi-
cally prepared breads will prove a
great surprise to all who see them.
One of the contests of especial inter.
est to the agriculturist is the special
Grange Exhibit Contest for which
there is offered prize of one hundred
and twenty five dollars.
Another feature which is coming
more and more to the front at fairs
throughout the country is the juvenile
contests and, working in conjunction
with the county agent of New London
county, f. &. Warner, the society has
arranged series of contests for boys
and girls under the age of eighteen
years. Nearly two hundred dollars in
prizes has been offered by the society
for the Juvenile contests and the win.
ners of several of the contests in add
ton TO the premium and ribbons will
be also given free trips to some of the
state fairs here in this state and also
in other states.
Purses and premiums amounting to
So 900 will be distributed and the sizes
of the purses has attracted some OF the
best and fastest horses now racing in
New England. The half mile track
of the society has always been a favor
lite among horsemen and has been re-
surfaced and put in the best of eondi-
| ton for the fair.
Midway shows land attractions OF
more numerous and greater size have
been engaged for this years fair and
the fair goer who wants amusement
for nominal price will find much to
entertain him. The free vaudeville
show given on the big open-air stage
across she track from the grandstand
will hold the spectators attention dur.
ing the performance Tor while it scarce
seems impossible to find any newer or
more startling acts than those OF pre-
vious years nevertheless the directors
think they have surpassed other shows.
