The Lodge has among its membership some of the wealthiest and most influential men of the town, also a mna- jority of the pastors. Its outlook is more prosperous than that of many larger lodges, as it is in possession of its own hall and without debt.

The Cold Summer.


One of the remarkable things of Hartford's early history is connected, not with its people as much as with the temper- ature. The months of spring came in 1816 but spring did not come with them. The farmers awaited the coming of the day when crops might be planted. It became June, July and August and still the frost eame every month and cold weather continued. Laban Bump has an almanac of 1816 in which is recorded that on June 6 snow fell. Men hoed the corn in its slow progress with overcoats on. The cause of the cold weather could not be ascertained. Men began to see black spots on the sun's face. They theorized that the sun was cooling rapidly and consequently the earth with all mankind would congeal in a few years. It was almost a panic. It was a season of foreboding of evil, anxiety and constant alarm at everything which might be taken as an evidence that the world was coming to an end.


Paul Slocum bought pork for $30 per barrel, and other products rose proportionately. Laban Bump went three miles to the John Hurd farm and cut wood during the fol- lowing summer and his wages were one-half bushel of pota- toes, which he enrried home daily after his toil. David Aus-

tin lived where Misses Fish and Tolman reside and, as was his custom, he sold no produce until the following year's erops had ripened. He, by his peedliar eustom, became a boon to all the settlers. Men followed blazed trees from Vermont to his house and built the stone fences on the Walter Chapman farm and did similar labor. For this their wage was one peck of wheat, which was speedily carried home lest. their families might be found starving. Mr. Austin pitied the poor, and in no case permitted these men who were in want, and whose families awaited their return for food, to go with one peck; he gave them two lest one might not be sufficient to appease the hunger of their wives and chil- dren. William Covell employed men who dng the wheel pit for the Wiles mill at one peck of corn per day. Such were the trials of the noble men and women who sacrificed the surroundings of English civilization, and came to the Ameri- ean wilderness in order that they might worship God ae- cording to the dietates of their own conscience.

Farm and Dairy


ONSIDERABLE attention has been paid to the manu- facture of cheese. The oldest factory in town, and one of the pioneers in the county, is the old Hartford factory. erected in the northern part of the town in 1869, at a cost of $5,000. A great number of dairies still contribute to it and a large quantity of cheese is produced.


The East, Hartford factory was next put up, in 1873. by an association of twenty-four members, of which Truman Harris was president. The entire outlay was $3,300, upon which a fair dividend was realized. At one time the milk of two hundred cows was consumed and eighty thousand pounds of cheese manufactured anmally.


The South Hartford factory was built in 1878 by an association of citizens. The factory has been doing a fair business ever since. The dairy business, however, has been turned from cheesemaking to that of buttermaking. Sepa- rators are becoming frequent.


The agricultural interests of the town centre principally in the potato. Almost every farmer in the town bas from five to fifteen neres of potatoes. The crop is not al- ways a financial success, as the cost of fertilizing the ground.

destroying the ever present potato bug, and the labor in producing and hauling, is frequently equal to the income. The farmers have begun to ship their own crops to New York on the canal, thus avoiding the loss to themselves of middlemen's profits on their sale. Frequently men have a erop of from fifteen hundred to three thousand bushels per year.


flar.


Erom the first settlement in this county its inhabitants were acenstomed to raise what flax was needed for their own family use, and till a recent period the foot spinning wheel was an essential part of the furniture of every dwell- ing. With the first warm days of early spring the flax was dressed, undergoing by hand at the barn the operations of breaking and swingling. It was then brought to the house. where the hatcheling was performed by the female members of the family, and the hum of the little wheel commenced. yielding a supply of yarn for the loom and thread for the needle adequate to the family wants of the year. The in- troduction of cotton goods has now for some time quite su- perseded this branch of household economy.

The Town fair.


During the early history of the county it was the custom for the residents of Hartford to attend the county fair at Salem. As the years of prosperity went by they began to feel their ability to present a good fair from the products of their own farms and workshops. About 1855 a town fair was started on the Harvey Brown place, now owned by James Alexander. It progressed nicely, and was well pat- ronized by exhibits from home and abroad. The attendance was large and the Hartford fair was one of the attractions of life in Hartford. In about twenty-five years it was moved to the north side of the Hartford-Sandy Hill road, on the Barrell farm. An excellent track was laid out and graded, buildings for dairy and other products erected, and the fair became of special interest to horse raisers and breed- ers. It continued for some years as a stock fair, principally. but finally was allowed to collapse, and now the only rem- nant is a track, judges' stand and a few buildings.


Early Roads and Public highways.


The roads of the pioneers were, in,most instances, blind paths, whose general direction was indicated by blazed trees; the early settlers generally selected such courses

as nature pointed out, and these have very often re- mained the highways between the principal points of the town, and were early authorized roads. Before the division of the towns more than forty roads were located.


Law and Order League.


This is an organization called into existence early in '96 by the flagrant violation of law in thetown. Hartford was a no license town for five years but during that time liquor was openly sold and no attempt was made at suppression. Finally, the citizens formed an organization known as the "Law and Order League." They have been watchful of the rights of fellow citizens and have attempted to bring about a hearty respect for law and order in the community. The work is principally done in a quiet man- ner, avoiding any publicity.

THAT TAB !


That little tab on the end of your shirt-bosom !


Did you ever stop and think about it? You never did.


Did you ever ask yourself why you have it there at all ? No.


Did you ever use it ? No.


What is the sense of having it? You don't know.


Yet on every one of your shirts is that flapping, useless tab. It has a button-hole carefully worked in it. But you can't but- ton it to anything. Try to button it to your drawers or trousers and you will have a pressure at the back of your neck that is un- bearable.


The "Danbury News" editor once suggested that all Ameri- eans should cut off these tabs, and out of a part of the saving thereby pay the national debt. The balance of the amount saved could be used to provide a new navy and adequate coast defenses.


Now it don't make any difference to us whether you cut the tab off or whether you leave it on, but we often wonder why it is that business men will keep in the old rut and have their . printing done by ancient and out of style printers, when they can have their work executed in an up-to-date manner just as cheap, by

Caution !


Most all meritorious articles are copied as near as possible, and our Floor Paint is no exception.


We have made a success of it; so much so that several parties are trying to imitate it without the experience or study of the re- quirements.


Beware of Imitations ! Cheap brands can be handled with larger profit to the seller; hence, there are many who will offer you other brands of Floor Paint and claim them to be as good as ours. We have had years of ex- perience in making a specialty of SENOUR'S FLOOR PAINT and it is reasonable for us to say it is nearer perfection than the many imitations on the market whose makers have but little experience.
