JUNIOR TOWN WANTS
A CLEAN PUTNAM
Young People of Junior Chau-
tauqua Are Interested In
Home Affairs
How They Believe Putnam Can Be
Made More Slightly

The Junior Chautauqua of Putnam,
after a discussion of health, and of
how to improve our town, voted unan-
imously in favor of the following mo-
ton:
Resolved, That the Town Clerk be
instructed to write to our Mayor, Mr..
Marcy, calling upon him to use his
power and influence toward having
the garbage of the city taken care of
regularly and Systematically.
Resolved, That we, citizens of Ju-
nior Town, shall do all in our power
to help clean up Putnam, as for in
stance, by picking up tin cans, waste
paper, banana peels, etc.
Resolved, That copy of this be
sent to our Mayor, and that it be read
at a meeting of the city council.
The following report was read at
one of the Junior Town meetings by
James Cotton:
The following proposed laws are
some which | am sure will make Put
nam better:
Plant flower or vegetable gardens
and keep them free from bugs and
weeds
If you have a lawn, NOV it.
Do not climb young trees, as you
may break some branches and kill the
trees
Do not carve your name on public
or private property.
Cut dead branches from trees.
If you see glass or tin cans in the
roads pick them up and throw them
into a garbage can or dump.
In cold or rainy weather many peo-
pie neglect to put blankets on their
horses when they come to town. Put
the blankets on the horses for the
men.

THE COUNTY FAIR
Educates the Farmer, Supplementing
Work of the Agricultural College

One of the greatest forces in rural
education today is the county fair.
The fair associations are steadily edu-
eating the farmer in better methods
of breeding live stock, better methods
of growing his grain and other crops,
and a higher standard of living for
himself and his family.
And not only are the farmers beng
educated without cost to themselves,
they are, it might be said, earning
while learning" for the efforts put
forth by them to produce prlze-win-
ming live stock or other products OF
the farm result in their output being
discoursing on this subject to some
increased and the quality being rails
ed with resultant financial beneft.
Secretary Gilbert Raymond, of the
New London County Agricultural So
ciety. which opens its sixty-ffth an
nual fair at Norwich on Labor Day, in
fellow-nembers, said, Fair associa-
tions all over the United States and
Canada, by their liberal offers Of cash
premiums, silver trophies and premi-
UNI ribbons, are assisting in the edu-
cation of swine breeders and raisers
and the visiting public by placing be-
fore them, for their inspection, the
wonderful exhibits Of swine, from the
SOW and her few days old litter, to
the champion bears and sows, such
concrete examples Of what proper
breeding, feeding and attention will
produce.
"The fair associations, as someone
has rightly said. are the show windows
of the breeders and raisers, wherein
they show their products, just as the
merchants show their wares, so that
the passersby may see what the pro-
ducers have to dispose of to meet
your and my needs"

ANOTHER POLITICAL
CELEBRITY
Colonel Alexander Warner of
Pomfret Was State Treas
urer

Last week, under heading, "Few
political celebrities" The Patriot pub
lished an interesting article from
Souvenir w. H Taylor Of Hart
ford which included a list of state off
GERS from Windham county.
A representative citizen of Pom
fret has called to the attention of The
Patriot that the name Of one state Of.
ficer was omitted Colonel Alexander

urer from 1887 to 1899.
The late Colonel Warner was the

a Woodstock manufacturer. Colonel
Warner was born in Smithheld, Rhode
Island, but removed to Woodstock,
where he attended Woodstock Aeade-
my. He attended an academy at vii.
braham, Mass, and subsequently be.
came a partner in his fathers bust
ness. When Fort Sumter was bonn
barded Colonel Warner was among
the 1fSt TO answer tIle CoultlS teii'
Enlisting as a private he was appoint
ed by Governor Buckingham major
of the Third Regiment, Connecticut
Volunteers, and participated with his
command at the first battle of Bull
Run.
After the war Colonel Warner pur-
chased a plantation in Mississippi and
while in the south held important pub
lie Offices. In 1887 he returned north
and located in Pomfret, finally remov-
ing to "Sunnyside," the former home
of Mrs. Warmers family.
Besides acting as state treasurer,
Colonel Warner was appointed com
missioner to the Ohio Centennial IN
1888 and to New York in 1889. He
served as a member of the state board
of agriculture and was appointed
state representative to various nation
al agricultural conventions. He was
at one time president of the Windhan
County Agricultural Society and held
various local Offices.
