WINDHAM COUNTY REMEMBERS
 THE LATE F. J. HEAVENS s

Franc.s J. Leavens, who died in Nor wich Sunday afternoon, was for many years connected with the industrial in- terests of our community, he and his brother the late Kirk H. Leavens, being associated in the management of the Whtestone mill, of which their father, Jedehiah Leavens, then residing in Nor wich, was the largest owner. MT. Leav- ems, ST, had, between 1880 and 1855, been a resident here, and in 1889 repre- ented Killingly in the General Assem- bly. He was a cotton manufacturer, and in company with Major Calvin Leffing- we'll operated the Sacramento mill, located by the roadside a few rods below the site of the present lower church This mill was a small one and was com pletely destroyed by fire in the fall of 1855.
 4 few years later Westcott and Pray raised the dam, improved the water pow CT and built the present Whitestone mill, just across the stream, perhaps thirty rods from the former one. This mill be- came known as the Westcott and Pray mill CT more often, as the new mill.
 Westcott and Pray sold the mill, Oct 2, 1865 to Jedehiah Leavens and others who became incorporated as the White stone Company, and from that time until about 1890 Francis Leavens and his brother Kirk were very intimately asso- ciated with the business of our village well liked by everyone and distributed hundreds tf thousands of dollars in wages to their employees, thus contribut- ing greatly to the commercial prosperity of our town.
 After the Whitestone property passed into other hands, Francis became inter ested in manufacturing properties else where and in banking and financial af- fairs in his native city of Norwich. There he was honored by his fellow citizens with many positions of trust and useful ness and became interested in various philanthropic efforts.
 His death comes as the close of a long, an honorable and a useful life.-Wind- ham County Transcript.

 FOR THREE YEAR PROGRAM

At the meeting of the organization committee of the Holland County Farm Bureau held at Rockville, c. B. Sikes, Jr., of Ellington, was elected the county organizer or director, to make arrange ments for the coming campaign for a 10 membership for each of the next three years.
 MT Sikes was Tolland county's rep resentative when Connecticut first start ed a s10 campaign in nNew Londo county. He has continued to date, in the Hartford county campaign, where he was high line of the solicitors, the Middlesex county campaign and now FaFfield county is carrying on. The outstanding feature of his work is that he feels more and more convinced that the $1O membership is the proper one, and this after meeting personally hun dreds of dirt farmers.
 The ladies of Holland county miss the work that was being done by the Home Demonstration agent, and thiS work re- quires more funds than are in sight, to be taken up again.
 The State Federation of Farm Blu reaus is a farmers organization, need ing a paid secretary to attend to the farmers economic and legislative mat ters under their direction. All other in- dustries are thus represented. The Am erican Federation does the same work at Washington and all over the United States, besides research work, Hence it is readily seen that the $10 membership covers far more than social call from county agent.
 This work is @ be organized early in October with the campaign for members about October 17th.
