AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.#
The first meeting for the formation of an agricultu- ral society was held in Wright's Hall, New Milford, July 3, 1858. The society was organized under the name of "The Housatonic Agricultural Society." At first the fairs were held on the lot to the rear of the
present residence of Dr. James Hine; afterwards the society rented grounds of F. S. Richmond, about one mile south of the village of New Milford, on the west side of the Housatonic River.
At a meeting of the society held March 3, 1879, it was voted to merge the society into a joint-stock or- ganization, and at a meeting March 22d a temporary organization was effected. At a meeting June 21st, two-thirds of the stock having been subscribed for the organization, under the name of the " New Milford Agricultural Association," the organization was com- pleted by the election of a board of directors, as fol- lows: William D. Black, Nicholas Staub, Noble Ben- nitt, George W. Squires, Turney Soule, Samuel Thornhill, J. Leroy Buck. Homer L. Wanzer, Walter B. Bostwick, George A. Barnes, H. O. Warner, Charles E. Beeman, and Burr Mallett. W. D. Black was elected President: J. Leroy Buck, Vice-President ; W. B. Dayton, Secretary; Charles Randall, Treas- urer. Subsequently Mr. Dayton resigned his posi- tion, and Robert Erwin was elected to fill the vacancy.
At the annual election in 1880 the old board of directors and officers were re-elected. In 1881, Messrs F. J. Turrill and Charles N. Hall were elected direc- tors in place of George A. Barnes and Charles E. Beeman. At a meeting of the board of directors held May 7, 1881, Col. C. D. Blinn was elected secre- tary in place of Erwin, resigned.
The grounds of the association are to the west of the village, about a mile distant, and are well located. The track is a good one, and suitable buildings for the exhibition of goods have been erected. In 1880 a grand stand was put up. For the two fairs held so far the association has been quite successful, each year leaving a surplus after paying its premiums in full. In 1879 the attendance at the fair and the articles entered for premiums were double those of the old society. There are also stables for the accommo- dation of owners of horses. No liquors are allowed to be sold on the grounds. So far the association has not allowed gambling in any form. In consequence of improvements the association is somewhat in debt. The capital is ten thousand dollars, and nearly all the stock has been taken.

THE ADELPHIC INSTITUTE.
The Adelphic Institute was opened at North Corn- wall, by Ambrose S. Rogers, in 1847, and continued there until 1860, when it was removed to New Mil- ford, and taught there until 1876, a period of twenty- nine years. This institution was highly prosperous, and had a patronage extending to all parts of the United States, the West Indies, and South America. It had over five hundred different pupils, and during the whole period of its continuance not a student sickencd and died. The locality is one of the most healthy and beautiful in New England. During the civil war it was a military school, having the best- drilled teachers to drill the young cadets. Several of its pupils became officers in the United States army. The institution was a great benefit to the town of New Milford, bringing there several thousand dollars yearly. The students had ground allotted them to cultivate, and they were required to furnish some of their best productions for the press, and to take part in a debate once a week. Some of the highest posi- tions in the country are now filled by them.

THE TOBACCO INTEREST.
As early as 1852, George McMahon commenced the raising of tobacco and manufacturing cigars in a small way. In 1868, E. A. Wildman erected the first to- bacco warehouse in the town, and in that year five hun- dred cases were packed. In 1869, Schoverling & War- ner also erected a large and commodious warehouse. These two concerns were the pioneers of the present immense business. The business is at present (Octo- ber, 1880) represented by the following firms, and during the past year about five thousand cases were packed : Warner & Myers, W. M. Schoverling, E. A. Wildman & Co., P. Soule & Bro., Bristol & Staub, N. Lachenbruck & Bros., Hall & Friedman, Robert Irwin, B. J. Stone, F. S. Richmond, Martin L. Hun- gerford, and Duane Gaylord.
T. Soule &' Bro .- This business was commenced in the fall of 1866, under the firm-name of T. Soule & Bro., doing the first year about six thousand dollars of contract building, besides some day-work. The business rapidly increased, and for eight years prior to 1879 the contract-work amounted to thirty-five thou- sand dollars annually. The firm until this time had consisted of Turney Soule and Daniel E. Soule. They had also for the last eight years been packers and dealers in leaf tobacco, packing annually from four hundred to seven hundred cases. In January, 1880, the firm sold out a half-interest in the building and lumber, flour, feed, etc., to George H. Lines and Frederic A. Lines, changing the firm-name to Soule Bros. & Co. The old firm still continued the tobacco business, under the firm-name of T. Soule & Bro. They built in New Milford village, during fourteen years, some seventy-five dwelling-houses, ranging from one thousand to eight thousand dollars each, besides several large tobacco warehouses, store blocks, etc.
