For upwards of a century Connecticut mas been. a leader in poultry culture es- pecially in the breeding of pure bred or standard poultry Connecticut is the birth-state of many of oHr most pop lar breeds. That. popular and largest of all breeds, the Light Rrahma were first brought to Connecticut and to Hart ford. from Asia, and bred by MT. Chamberlain many years ago fsom which the stock of all the leading brahmas in America today have descended, writes W. H.

Bristol The premier breed of all breeds in show qualities and high class breeding the partridge cochins, were bred in Bristol, by George Mitchell.
 The leading strain of white wyan- 6ottes-- in the world were developed at Naugatuck, by Fred Williams, now of Plainville.
 Black Orpingtons were bred to their quality by Richard Barnum in Lime Rock. At Lucknow. Farm, South Nor walk are bred the highest class Buff Orpingtons in America. And at Meri- den are several breeders of Buff Orp- inrtons of equally as good quality.
 Rhode Island Reds in Connecticut are equal to sthe best and bred by several breeders of world renown.r
 The home office of the Rhode Island Red club of America with it's member ship of 5000 is at Manchester. The 1 Connecticut Poubry Association is 2 l hourishing organization of 800 mem bers.

MARKET CONDITIONS.

Good fancy apples are not abnndantly supplied on the markets but good ord- nary apples are overnowing them. The William Favorte and the Wealthy ap- ples are still predominating on the mar kets but in smaller quantities as the supply is becoming exhausted. As the weather has been untavorable for the past week, or two, Carnon .Waddef and Bell of Georgia peaches have been more or less. handicapped about .ripening. There is expected ito be in two or three
 weeks a fair proportion of the year S crop on the market places. It still is a
 good time to do your canning if it has not already been done. Tomato quota tions are reasonable as well as those on
 string beans and corn. There will be
 a supply of lima beans on the markets soon and people. should invest in them as well as in tomatoes, beans, and corn as they contain nutriment. Potato prices are reasonable and the supplies are still ; increasing on the markets. The lamh market is a little frmer but the veal and beef markets remain unchanged.

PAPER FACES LIBEL SUIT
 OVER KHAN
Million-Do1lar Damage Action Is Threatened
 Against Catholic Tran script by Bridgeporter.

The Catholic Transcript, official
 organ of Connecticut Catholicism,
 is threatened with a million dol
 lar libel suit to be brought
 against 1t by an unknown admir-
 CT of Rev. Dr. Quig1ey, pastor of
 the Summerf1eld Methodist
 church, where a Ku KIux demon
 StratiOn was staged some time
 ago.
 The unknown admirer of Dr. Quig- icy is to bring about the suit as the result of satirical criticism directed by the Transcript against the minister of the Summ erffe1d Meth odtst church and the Klan episode staged there.
 The Transcript thus comments on the suit:
 'HThe very existence of ''The Tran script" Is threatened. An admirer of Doctor Quigley of Bridgeport and q defender of the Klan has written this office to forewarn it that a suit tor million dollars is in the course of preparation and will be served upon this publication. The writer (name then makes the statement that as this paper will be unable to pay that vast sum of money, its doors will be closed and its type cast into for said writer that his name is un- known, otherwise '"The Transcript" might enter a counter suit for the as sertion that it would be unable to pay such a small judgment as a mil lion dollars. However, the unknown gentleman's letter supplies the req son why it is possible for the Klan to secure recruits for its childish or ganizatiOn."
