WESTPORII

. Thursday, March 20th will be a day
memorable in the history of the M. E.
church. The pastor announced that on
that day the note reprtsenting the last of
the church debt will be burned—that there
will be a special service commemorative of
the cancellation, and that Bishop E. G.
Andrews, D. D., L. L. D., presiding Elder
_N. G. Cheney and others distinguished In
church affairs will be present. The pastor,
Rev. H. S. Still has‘bcen the factor to ac-
complish this splendid result for the church,
and doubtless It will form a bright place in
his memory of pastoral work here. Every-
.body is invited to attend the service.

The sale of 21, acres of land at Greens
Farms, by Austin Jennings, to a New York
customer, at the rate of $1,000 an acre‘,
piompts the question,“Why is land so valu-
able in that hamlet? ” and the answer
comes gently over the hills “Because the
people take care of' their land, and nature
smiles on them as a reward for their trouble
thus taken.”

The old academy at the rear of the Con-
gregational church, in which Governor Bis-
sell of Norwalk once taughtschool has been
taken apart and removed to Greens Farms

Mr. and Mrs. Neil Mitchell will, on
about April 1st, leave the Lowrey place on
King street and occupy the remodeled
homestead of the late Dr. George Blackman
at the head ofCompo street. , \

No knowing this year by farmers as to

the price of onions. For whites they are
getting $10 and $12 per barrel. The only
complaint of the producers is the small sup-
ply of the commodity. -
' Tomorrow in National hall there will be
a convention of the State Board of Agricul-
ture and Dairymen’s association. There
are likely to be present Dr. J.H. Jenkins,of
the State experiment station, and a number
of gentlemen prominent in creamery and
buttermaking interests. Such subjects as
“creamer-ies, or farm dairies,” “selling milk
and butter,” and “care of milk and cream,”’
will be discussed. It should be stated that
the best and highest priced butter has been
made in this town for years without the aid
of any organization.. Perhaps a system will
cause more and better butter to be made and
afiord lower prices. That’s what the folks
want. .

Pioneer H. & L. cenipany met last week
