FIRST NEW WHEAT
DELIVERED FRIDAY
w. C. BLEAMASTER, FORMER
COACH, GETS 40 BUSHELS OF
CIJTR PER ACRE

The first new wheat of the season
to reach Moscow, came in Friday from
the farm of w. G. Bleamaster, just
east Of town. 1t was delivered to the
warehouse of the White-Dulaney COM
pany, and tested SO pounds to the
bushel. 1t was Jenkins club and
yielded 40 bushels per acre. 1t was
sold for $2.11 per bushel, being dock
ed two per cent for smut. The crop
will bring $84.4O per acre.
There are several interesting facts
connected with this sale. Mr.. Blea-
master was PHYSICAL director and
coach of the University of Idaho for
several years. He became interested
in agriculture and bought a well i'm
proved farm of 60 acres half mile
east of the city limits two years ago,
paying $4,000, or S100 per acre He
has refused 5000 per acre and the
wheat crop will lack but S15.40 per
acre of paying for the land upon
which it was grown.
Mr.. Bleamaster resigned his posi-
ton with the university last spring
and has since been devoting his eli
tire time ard attention to his farming
operations He milks a number of
COWS and sells the cream in Moscow
and is making good profit from this.
He finds farming much mora prof.
table than coaching football aad track
teams and says he gets plenty of
physical culture" in his farming op-
erations. lie values his land at $3.50 |
per acre. an advance of $50 per cent
over the p-.oe paid two years $50 and |
he crops produced have yielded a |
nice profit He has fine field CT
peas and Jther grain on his farm in
addition to the wheat just threshed.

LARGE ATTENDANCE AT "Y"
 MEETING AT PARK SUNDAY

The largest attendance of the season was registered at the Y. Nj. C. A. open air meeting at Mohegan park Sunday af- ternoon at o'clock A chorus composed of boys and young men from the Brook Iyn '. M. CA. camp at Gardner Lake rendered several selections
 The singing was led by Dr. Zobel, the camp physician. and Messrs. Arnold and Peak accompanied the singing on violin and cornet A practical address was de- lvered by Ernest P Roberts, camp su- perintendent, and he held the close atten- tion of the audience The speaker said in part:
 Some people think that boys don't amount to much. but we need to realize the great possibilities wrapped up in ev cry boy even though he is trouble maker at time. The boys and girls are watching us and if they go wrong it is often the fault of father or mother. We little dream what these boys may become in future years, and we should be very careful how we influence them.
 Let me give you an example of what might be called letter from father to son ::
 q would be true to those who trust me would be pure for those who care would be strong for those who are weaker; I would be brave for those who dare; would be a friend to all; would give and forget the gift; I would be humble l would look up and love and laugh and lift"
 Sometimes the Christian workers are called the comet to- Jesus crowd. We'll, is it not about time some of you came tc Him?
 The meeting was concluded by the singing of Need Thee Every Hour.

FAVORED BREwsTER's NECK

Sixty-two years ago the New London County Agricultural society took up the matter of Securing a permanent location for the fairs held annually by the society. As this years fair approaches there is more or less interest in the proceedings of the meeting held three score and two years ago, at which time the committee investigating the matter at hand recom- mended that a lot at Brewster's Neck be purchased and fitted up.
 At the annual meeting held Dec 15th 1858, the report of the committee ap- pointed at the. last. meeting to take into consideration the subject of permanent location for the fairs of the society was then called for and submitted as follows:
 The undersigned committee. appointed to examine and obtain prices Of land suit able for fair ground, have. attended to their duties and hereby beg leave to re- port:
 That they have examined the different lots on Brewster's Neck. so-called, situ- ated in Preston, the Mohegan lands in Montsille, below Trading Cove: and the lot north of the Yantic cemetery owned by Rev. Thomas L. Siipnan.
 There are several lots on the Great Plain, so-cafled. -Sest of Norwich, but your committee think. that the expense of | conveying the people to either of these lots would prevent such an attendance as I would make fair successful. Your com mittee think that the lot on Brewster g Neck, although it is some two and a half miles from the city, yet with such an ar ranSement with the railroad and steam 1 boat companies as can be made, any quantity of people can be carried to and 1 from the ground at say five cents apiece l each way, which would enable all to go ! la.lr f,a-f ie
 to be made from Laurel Hill to Brewster's l Neck, which will shorten the distance and make very pleasant drive for thost ] who choose to go in carriages. You1 ! committee would recommend that com mittee be appointc' 4 raise the necessary l tunds and purcf the grounds and fl 1 them for use :; next fair and tha 1 the funds necessary be raised before tn, 1 land is purchased J. p.

MORE TROUBLE ON
 CENTRAL VILLAGE LINE

Although it was announced on Satur- dary that full service on trolley lines between Norwich and Wilimantic and Norwich and Central Village would be resumed it was found that the tempo rary arrangements were not sufficient and the Central Village was operated only to Jewett City The curtailment of service was caused by the washout at the power house in Dayville and a temp orary arrangement was made which was thought to be sufficient for Saturday and Sunday needs. However, the trolleys will operate today on the regular sc1etl- ule as temporary repairs have been made at the Dyer dam which will give plenty of power.
