CORNWALL.

The Town Fair on Friday last was the best yet, the exhibits being greater, both in number and quality, than usual. This was specially true of the vegetables, the flowers, the canned goods, poultry, and the cattle. An innovation was the se- curing of people from out of town for judges on all the exhibits. There were many registered and high grade cattle, in which line a great inn provement has taken place in the town in the last few years. The first prize for a collection of vege- tables went to the exhibitor of fifty varieties. The increasing interest and attendance require more exten- sive grounds and building accomo- dations and plans for these have already been adopted which will re- quire considerable work before next year. Thanks are due to many com mittees for the success of 1920. The Poultry Club met and was ad- dressed by Prof. Jones of Storrs the same evening.
