 The new church is the gift of Hen ry R. .Towne, in memory of his wife. the late Mrs. Cora White Towne. It is beautiful stone edifce, built of Roxbury granite and designed as noble example of Gothic architec- ture The architects are Rossiter and Muellor of New York, and the work has been executed by the H. Wales Lines Company of Meriden. The interior of the church is admir- ably proportioned, giving prospec- tives of distance entirely unexpected T ill a relatively small church. The arched woodwork of the ceiling in the nave, beautifully executed in oak and chestnut, is supported by a double row of Doric columns, be- tween which the visitor looks toward the Chancal and Sanctuary. Here the wood-carving is extremely rich and impressive, being in the finest style of Irving and Casson of Boston.
 The new church is the fourth which St. MichaePs Parish has occu- pied in the one hundred and seventy six years of it's existence. The Par 9ish was founded on November 5, 1745, through the efforts of John Davies, who came to Litchfield from England in 1735, and of few other members of the Ch1rch of England.
 The first church building stood about a mile west of the center, on Sriyn hxTM built in 1747 and was used through ! the Revolution and until 1872. Until the Revolution the church was under V the care of the English Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign. Parts, but with the war this support ceased. The suspicion of Toryisn was however attached to the Parish, quite unjustly and for five years the church was closed and ser vices continued in private homes. On the occasion of Washington's first visit to Litchfield his soldiers in passing broke the windows of old St. MichaePs with stonese calling down on themselves one of the Gen eral Washington's nobles rebukes 'I am Churchman, and wish not to see the Church dishonored in this s manner"
 The second church of St. MichaePs was begun in 1911 on the present site on South street and remained in use until 1851. 1t was followed bg the third church, so recently fami- liar to all Litchfielders, which in turn was taken down last September to make way for the present Memorial Church.

State and County News

1,94s Cases of Communicable Disease
 During June 1,948 cases of com- 'rnunicable disease were reported to the state department of health by lrealth officers in Connecticut. New Haven county led with 592 cases, Fairfield county was second with 479 cases and Hartford county with 415 cases was third. Holland and Middlesex counties reported but 15 and 31 cases of communicable dis ease respectively, an exceptionally low number of cases, suggesting that parents do not call physicians in cases of communicable disease to the extent that it is done in the urban districts, and cases fail to be report ed. In proportion to the population the greatest incidence of disease was in Litchfield county, where the outbreak of measles contributed largely toward the rate of PIP cases of disease per 100000 population for the month. Fairfield county, with a rate of ~144, was second, while New Haven county, with 139, and New London county, with 137 cases per 100000 were practically tied for third place..

 ent character much of their tradi- tions will endure in the numerous Memorials which have been trans ferred to the new building.
 The fine organ, given in 1911 in memory of Judge Edward W. Sey- mour by his widow, has been remod- eled for the new church by the Hall Orran Company of New Haven, and given promise of being an even finer instrument than heretofore.
 Most of the Memorial Windows from the cd church have been transferred to the. Chapel in the northeast corner of the new church. The Rector has completed plan for uniformity of subject and treat ment of future Memorial Windows in the main part of the church. Five new windows are already in pre- paration, one by the famous Bacons cf London, and four by Clement W. H atcn of Nyack, master of color iii 'e+c, med glass.
 Of the new Memorials being placed ch9 7>e mentioned he Davies. tab- let, presented by Miss Edith D Kingsbury, to be located o1 the west wall of the north transepr. This commemorates the many services to the Parish of three generations of this pioneer family in a land which the wife of one of their number characterized as being inhabited only "by Presbyterians and wolves". At the west end of the nave is the beautiful marble tablet bearing Mir. Towne's dedication of the church. This Memorial fittingly typifas the spirit of the donor, generous to a fault in accepting every suggestion for the improvement of the church and unfailing in his support of the architects, the rector and the Build ing Committee, to make the new church truly human Memorial and "a symbol of service to God.
 l Under the stimulus of such CO., operation the progress of the work has been rapid. The old church was moved away in the fall of 1919 to a site slightly further south where it was used till September 1920 when it was finally taken down. The foun- dation was worked at through the winter of 1919-192O, work above groudn being begun in April 1920 The cornerstone was laid by Bishop Brewster on June 6, 1920. Since then the work has grown in leaps and bounds, under the superintend- ence of Willard F. Peck. MT Towne's gift was for building tc cost $100,000; but eventually il more than doubled that figure.

To Buy Large Grain Elevator.
by David Stone Kelsey:

One of the most important actions ever taken by the farmers of this state is involved in the new, state wide cooperative association, incor :Jc rated under the name Of tke Con, nectirGt Agricultural Exch arge, now organizing with headquarters in Hartford. From birth the young Exchange is showing astonishing vigcr, drawing it's strength from all pars of the state. The original for ganization committee", consisting of twenty-four names, was drawn from sixteen towns in six of our eight counties.
 Without waiting for the full stock to be subscribed, the executive com mittee of this organization has al- ready contracted to buy one of the most complete milling and grain ele- vating outfits within the state, the Garber-Norham plan at Hartford.
 The preliminary 7papers having been passed, the Exchange is already a going concern, sending out car lots and broken lots of feed and grain daily at a saving of several dollars per ton to it's members. Three cars we're sent out one day last week, two of them going to one town. It is expected that by Sept. 1st (when it is hoped the final transfer of papers can take place) the output will aver age 50 carloads per month, an im- mense saving to the hard-pressed milk-producers, poultrymen and other food growers of the state. At saving of even 15-cents per hun dred pounds, the smallest farmer can surely save $25 per year---the cost of one share, while for the average growera his saving should amount to several times this.
 The final papers will carry with them the entire trade and goodwill of the Garber-Northam Company, amounting at the present time to some $75,OO0 worth of business per month, and very strongly emphasiz- ing the wisdom of purchasing a going business. The "milling-in- transit" privilege thus acquired is in itself highly valuable asset. i, The equipment of the plant in- "' deG two spur-tracks, one on either side of the elevators with a combined ca~acItv of twenty-two cars; un- loading, elevating and loading ma : "'"er-- capacity, one car per hour full mill equipment for grinding all : grains. separate or mixed--even corn 7 on cob; three=grade bolt, automa- tic oat crusher, mixing machinery, etc.
 A DIRECT OUTGROWTN
 This movement dates back to the winter of 1916-17 when the Connec- ticut Milk Producers Association was organized, with headquarters in Hartford, and Thomas Holt of Southington, an officer of the State Dairymen's Association placed in charge as manager. MT. Holt is now State Dairy and Food Commissioner and strong advocate of New Agri- cultural Exchange. That first, solid "get-together" of the producing far rlers was the beginning of real co. o'e";t;ve acticn in the Nutmeg State. That was cooperative sell, ing, but buying comparatively was "!so ih the minds of those progressive men, the long delayed by the evils of war.
