They have a
clean error column, and the w a y thoy

caused a scar and blighting frost to strike
tbe young mau's adherents among the
three hundred spectators present. Nedeau had four slick base hits up bis sleeve
and Card slipped three olean ones Out ot

form, and the work of Raymond behind
tho bat for "neatness and dispatch" was

The Fanulngtou's lleldlng was as slick

Description
An account of the resource
A Farmington News article talking about Independence Day. This is Page 2 of the Friday, July 4th, 1930 issue.<br /><br />The piece about independence Day reads: <br /><br /><em>JULY FOURTH</em><br /><br /><em><em> The 'News goes to print this week on the eve of the great American holiday. Independence day. July 4th which occurs on Friday. It will be the 154th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and chat ' the spirit of 76”still sur- vives not merely as a tradition but as one of the greatest American achievements, there is plenty of manifest evidence within our na- tional boundaries and all United States possessions Business will be suspended generally and the Ameri- can colors will predominate. While Farming-ton has contemplated no or dered program for the day'’s cele- bration. there will be nothing- lack- log in the spirit of the occasion From the small child up there will an ardent display of American pride If not with a participation the revelry and the enchantment of adding; to the general racket, there will be an ordered preservation of peace and prosperity that has been in preparation for many weeks. The grooming of residential proper- ty and places of business has been in preparation for midsummer and the 4th of July tor many weeks and the 4th of July for many weeks and the accomplishments are impressed upon any and all observers who cure to survey the general aspect with thoughtful consideration. Wherever a piece,of property of whatever na- ture has .an outstanding prominence there have been no reservations in making it presentable to the gaze with cleanliness and features of beauty more or less abundant. Beautiful gardens, green, well- cropped lawns and fresh paint fore- cast the glamour and redolence of a thrifty and well-ordered community The preservation of the citizenry and the property of such a compos- ite structure is among our first re- gards. Especially at such times as the Fourth of July when-the bars of restraint are let down while a great event of universal moment is being celebrated, there is likely to be. with with no intention at lawlessness, a com- mon relaxation toward destruction On such occasions as the Fourth of July, the real patriot, whether youth or adult, is the individual who regards with scrupulous care the rights of others and joins his fellows in the wildest of celebration without abandon In such a spirit of celebration everybody has the sympathy and encouragement of the community Those who use the crowded highways at this season are especially cautioned to avoid colli- sion and destruction to themselves and others. Herein lies one of the greatest elements of danger and it is sincerely hoped that the "News" will have few, if any, local casualties to report after the holiday has passed. To impress the great element of danger that that is abroad at this time, insurance statistics show that more people buy automobile insurance on or prior to this holiday than at any other holiday season of the year. To show that the apprehension is well founded, the insurance com- panies report that for one day more claims are paid than for any other day In the year except Labor day We certainly urge our citizens to </em></em><em>celebrate the Fourth and to Indulge </em><em>in all the reasonable pastimes, but to </em><em>exercise extreme care In the preser-</em><em>vation of their own safety and the </em><em>safety of others. The handling of </em><em>fireworks and explosives should at </em><em>all times be entrusted to mature </em><em>judgment and we sincerely hope </em><em>that wherever children are allowed </em><em>to handle these instruments it </em><em>will be under the supervision of </em><em>their elders. From Thursday at </em><em>midnight until Friday at midnight </em><em>the town will be under extra, police </em><em>surveillance and all lines of law and </em><em>order- will be drawn tight. Traffic </em><em>rules must be observed and extreme </em><em>precaution be taken against fire. </em><em>With' these suggestions In mind, not </em><em>to spoil or detract from anybody's </em><em>good time, but rather to Insure the </em><em>resumption of our peace, prosperity </em><em>and pursuit of -happiness after the </em><em>"Glorious Fourth'* has passed, the </em><em>"News" extends its best wishes for </em><em>every bounty that the holiday may </em><em>afford.</em>

TOWN TALK
by Tom Watman
Pretty soon, the town will b e
gin hearings on the sewerage
project. It's summer time and
it's going to be difficult to get
people enthused about turning out
to meetings but I can think of
about 800,000 good reasons why
all citizens should attend. That's
^800,0001 It Is estimated, by r e
liable sources, that the sewerage
project will cost between $800,000
and one million dollars; about one
fourth to be paid by the taxpayers
of Farmington. Selectmen Inform
us that the Budget Committee is
not envolved in passing on this
project. However, such a large
expenditure might well b e the fit
topic of an ex-offlclo investiga
tion by that committee, At the time
of the last town meeting a com
mittee was appointed to supervise
this project, Wehope that the mem
bers of that committee will have
comments to make at the coming
meetings.
The
expenditure of
$800,000 should provoke quite a
few comments.
Over the last few weeks we've
received several comments on j u
venile delinquency. Seems that two
benches at the Babe Ruth baseball
park were broken recently, a p
parently by Juveniles, While It's
really a shame for such things to
occur It would really seem that the
local teenagers a r e basically well
behaved. Like everywhere else,
their Is a small minority that just
can't seem to stay out of trouble.
In cases like this the best a p
proach would b e for parents to
solve the problem before it b e
gins. Contrary to the views of
some modem psychologists a well
timed and placed strap can have a
very beneficial effect, In many
cases.
m situations where home treat
ment doesn't solve the problem it
might be a good procedure to
hand out more beneficial punish
ments to local offenders.The local
municipal court has done so in the
past; but only on a limited basis.
LetB get tough with the few lncorrigibles left in town. Lets put
them to work cleaning up the
parks, painting street signs, and
other projects of benefit to the
town. If their caught breaking up
the benches at the ball park, why
not put them to work building
some benches to replace them?
The
establishment
of such a
system would possibly cut down
the number of habitual offenders.
Systems such as this have been
used successfully In other com
munities and as such are not
mere passing novelties. In any
event, three cheers for the ma
jority of our youth who habitually
do the right thing and perhaps a
word of warning for those who In
sist on disregarding the rights of
others.

Not The Oldest...The Newest
FARMINGTON -At two o'clock on
the afternoon of July Fourth, folks
from Middleton, and passers by,
stopped at the Middleton Gospel
Chapel to ring the church bell in
compliance with a request by Gov.
John King.
Those who pulled the rope had
the unique experience of ringing,
not the oldest, but the newest and
only bell of its pattern in ex
istence. The pattern for this bell
was put together and turned on an
engine lathe in the basement of
DiPrizlo's Garage in Middleton
by the pastor of the church, Uel

Description
An account of the resource
A farmington news article covering the fire at the Cloutman Shoe Factory in Farmington NH. Page2, 1918-02-22<br /><br />The article reads:<br /><br /><em>Cloutman Shoe Factory Burns<br />Two Hundred and Twenty-Eight People<br />Temporarily Out of Employment<br />The Biggest Industrial Fire Farmlngton Has Ever Experienced<br />CONCERN TO RESUME BUSINESS IN FARMINGTON<br /><br />The most damaging conflagration that<br />ever visited Farmlngton, reduced to<br />ruins the J. F. Cloutman Shoe Co's big<br />factory wbich occupied tbe site at the<br />junction of Maln, Garfield and Elm streets,<br />last Thursday nlgbt. In less than two<br />hours over a $300,000 loss had been incurred<br />to Messrs. Brown & Daley, owners<br />ot the plant, and although tbe property<br />was insured a big unprotected loss was<br />sustained, the figures of which have not<br />been set. Two hundred and twentyseven<br />hands were temporarily thrown<br />out of employment by tbe raging element,<br />but before the last timbers of the<br />factory fell word went abroad that the<br />structure and Industry would be replaced<br />with all possible speed. Before<br />ten o'clock tbe following morning, plans<br />were being formulated to start the business<br />in temporary quarters while the<br />new shop was being built and equipped<br />for occupancy. A new office of tbe<br />concern was organized in the rooms of<br />the farmington National and Savings<br />Banks and by noon of the following day<br />those out of employment were reassured<br />by the dispatch with which tbe emergency<br />was being handled. The fire<br />which destroyed tbe plant doomed the<br />property even before it was discovered<br />Members of the firm and office force<br />were at work io the office, a one story<br />structure, adjoining tbe sole leather and<br />packing departments, on tbe Main street<br />side, and were unaware of tbe presence<br />of the fire until about 9: 35 when some<br />ladles who occupy rooms in the Frank<br />McDuffee house, directly across the way,<br />noticed a lurid illumination through tbe<br />windows ot the factory and hastened to<br />apprise those in tbe office of the danger.<br />Michael Mack attempted to gain<br />entrance to tbe factory through a door<br />that connected with tbe sole leather<br />room and was driven back by tbe intense<br />smoke and blaze and it was at once seen<br />that it would be impossible to get inside<br />to operate the hose from tbe standpipe.<br />Therefore, a general alarm immediately<br />was sounded from box 45, corner Main<br />and Garfield streets. Moving pictures<br />and other places of amasement were<br />quickly emptied of their patrons and a<br />crowd of spectators were on hand before<br />tbe firemen reached the scene. However,<br />they arrived promptly and under the<br />direction of tbe fire chief, Gyros York,<br />streams ot water soon were turned on<br />the fire which then was ravaging the<br />main structure sections of the two lower<br />stories. Soon, eight lines of hose were<br />playing on the blazs but seemed to have<br />little effect as it was impossible for the<br />firemen to get inside owing to tbe intense<br />heat and smoke and danger from<br />falling machinery which by that time<br />was crashing through the burning floors.<br />Scorching flames burst from the windows<br />ana roof and in spite of the warm<br />and windless night, moving currents of<br />air sucked in through the seething structure<br />and sent tbe flames and sparks<br />mounting several hundred feet in the air<br />until the heat and falling cinders became<br />a menace to buildings within a wide area<br />and a constant watch was kept by citizens<br />and the boy scouts, while details of<br />firemen turned their attention to nearby<br />houses that were in imminent danger.<br /><br />Lines of hose played constantly on the<br />house owned by K. T. Willson and occupied<br />by Dr. Huntress, the garage at the<br />rear occupied by J E. Ricker, the J . F.<br />Cloutman house on Garfield street and<br />tbe McDuffee and W • Uley residences<br />on Main street. The McDuffee place being<br />nearest and in tbe greatest danger<br />suffered tbe worst, the paint being blistered<br />and some water damage sustained.<br />Here tbe boy scouts proved their value<br />as a heroic organization by removing the<br />furniture from the house and the live<br />stock from the stable.<br /><br />The illumination from tbe great blaze<br />lighted tbe sky for miles around and was<br />watched from points of vantage in surrounding<br />towns and cities from whence<br />came insistent calls for reports of news.<br />Tbe telephone line connecting this village<br />with Milton was early put out of<br />commission by tbe cable being burned<br />and wire broken, and much more damage<br />would have been done to the local<br />system bad it not been for the efficient<br />work ot the boy scouts, who, working in<br />well organized patrols, really commanded<br />the situation as regards the telephone<br />system. During tbe most exciting moments<br />ot tbe fire bugle blasts could be<br />heard calling tbe scouts to points where<br />their services were most needed,and too<br />much credit cannot be acoorded the boys<br />for what they accomplished and the cool<br />manner in which they did it. Not until<br />after midnight did tbe crowd begin to<br />diminish. It was an all ntght vigil for<br />the firemen who watcbed tbe flaming<br />mass of burning timbers and debris until<br />daylight. One feature of importance<br />and help in fighting the fire was tbe fact<br />that tbe reservoir was full and good water<br />pressure was available.<br /><br />The original structure of tbe plant destroyed<br />was built in 1873 by John<br />M. Berry and Daniel W. Kimball, both<br />prominent shoe manufacturers of the<br />town at that time. The old shop was a<br />four story building 72x30 feet and faced<br />on Garfield street. Here for a period of<br />years tbe owners did business under tbe<br />firm name of Berry & Kimball. Later,<br />Mr. Berry took over by purchase his<br />partner's interest and manufactured<br />shoes until 1800 when John F. Cloutman<br />Sr., bought tbe shop. During Mr. Clout<br />man's ownership a small addition was<br />built on Main street. At the death of<br />Mr. Cloutman, in December, 1905, his<br />only son, Jobn F. Clontman, Jr., succeeded<br />to the business which he carried<br />on with remarkable success until In May,<br />1917, he sold out to Joseph E. Daley and<br />Elmer J . Brown who incorporated tbe<br />business under tbe name of the J. F.<br />Clontman Shoe Co. During tbe younger<br />Mr. Cloutman's ownership three addi<br />tions were pnt on, two on Main street<br />extending the plant to Elm, and one on<br />Garfield street. During the present ad<br />ministration an addition was built on<br />Garfield,making tbe entire plant contain<br />50,000 square feet of floor space, with a<br />manufacturing capacity ot 250 dozen<br />shoes a day. The pay roll of the concern<br />when doing this amonnt of business<br />was $4,000 weekly,so that the temporary<br />loss of the industry to the town can be<br />estimated at a large sum.</em><br /><br /><br />This is a digital file and does not exist in the physical museum collection.<br /><br />FHS- Kyle Leach

early trend of shopping that the general

peace will find expression, to a marked
degree, in the time honored oustom of

depression o'f war time sacrifices and the
outlook for national prosperity during
tbe coming period of reconstruction is
having an enervating influence on every
body's spirits, and with t h e s e ' b r i g h t
and happy prospeots there is little doubt
that Christmas morning will find full

Aside from the

of color and light that please the eye,
honest values are apparent from even a
casual observation. Early shopping is
always a mutual benefit to merchant and
customer and often obviates many of
tbe unpleasant features that attend the

Christmas together, bounded only by
the reserves of prudency and decency
for It is tbe happiest Yuletide in the

J F Cloutman Shoe Co Work Resumed In New Factory Farmington News, Page2, 1918-12-13
Description
An account of the resource
A Farmington News article covering work being resumed at the J F Cloutman Shoe Co factory. Farmington News, Page2, 1918-12-13 <br /><br />The article reads:<br /><br /><em>The signal for the big business and <br />enterprise that is to contribute largely<br />to Farmington's future industrial career<br />was raised on Wednesday morning when<br />operations were commenced in the cutting<br />department at the new factory of<br />the J. F. Cloutman Shoe Company. The<br />new structure, which was completed on<br />December 2, has been an undertaking of<br />almost magic growth, that sprang from<br />tbe ashes of tbe burned factory that was<br />consumed ou tbe site in tbe big conflagration<br />of February 14, 1918. No sooner<br />was it obvious that tbe old building was<br />doomed tban it was announced that it<br />would be replaced with an _up-to date<br />plant. The fulfilment of tbe prophecy<br />was commenced early in May, as soon as<br />the ruins could be cleared away, and a<br />cement fouudation was laid for the<br />structure 200 feet long and 42 feet wide,<br />that would occupy the Main street front<br />on the area between Garfleld and Elm<br />streets. As soon as the foundation was<br />iu the building contract was placed in<br />the hands of Contractor Frank R. Copp,<br />and as is characteristic of Mr. Copp's<br />energy, no time was lost in erecting tbe<br />towering four-story frame that outlined<br />the proportious of tbe big shop. In the<br /><br />course of tbe next few weeks building<br />materials simply flew ioto place while<br />the frame was being enclosed, aod a new<br />contract was placed for laying the<br />matched hard wood floors. As soon as<br />his work was completed, the contract<br />for installing the steam fitting, piping<br />and automatic sprinkler system was put<br />into execution and it is expected that it<br />will be completed the coming week.<br />Plumbing was done by tbe local Read-<br />Esty concern and the wiring and electric<br />fixtures were Installed by the Cloutman<br />Electric Co. All the contract work has<br />been done in a thorough, efficient and<br />expeditious manner that reflects credit<br />on contractors and workmen alike.<br />While there are several small details yet<br />to be attended to on the lower floors, all<br />will be completed by tbe new year and<br />all departments should be running at<br />that time.<br />The plant covers 9,000 square feet of<br />ground, approximately. is four stories<br />high and contains nearly 40,000 square<br />feet of working floor space which is furnished<br />with natural light from 400 large<br />indows. The top story will be occupied<br />by the cutting and a part of the<br />stitching departments; the third floor by<br />the stitching and lasting departments<br /><br />the second by the making, finding and<br />treeing, and the ground floor by the sole<br />leather, packing and shipping, while tbe<br />150 feet concrete basement will be util<br />izid for stock storage purposes. When<br />in full operation, the plant will employ<br />about 300 hands and will be equipped<br />primarily to produce 200 dozen pairs of<br />shoes per day. Tbe big structure has an<br />imposing appearance and bears on the<br />front in large black letters the name,<br />"J. F. Cloutman Shoe Company." Although<br />the enterprise passed out of the<br />Cloutman bands some two years ago<br />and the plant now is owned by Joseph<br />E. Daly and K.J. Brown, both prominent<br />manufacturers and leather merchants of<br />Massachusetts, the Cloutman name is<br />still retained to identify the business as<br />the same that built up such a wonderful<br />reputation in the New England boot and<br />shoe trade durings a long and successful<br />history of manufacturing in Farmington.<br />The building was produced at an estimated<br />cost of $50,000 and does great<br />credit to the owners and organization<br />that have made it possible for the town<br />to be represented by such a concern. In<br />connection with the factory and directly<br />in the rear is located the steam beating<br /><br />and power plant with adequate facilities<br />for furnishing these requisite needs.<br />Tbe office is an attractive one story<br />adjunct connected with the street floor<br />of the main building and consists of<br />three departments, tbe clerical room,<br />superintendent's office, aud tbe private<br />suite, all of-which are equipped with the<br />most modern appliances. Including steel<br />vault and safes. No unsanitary or unsightly<br />conditions will be allowed about<br />the premises, as a complete lavatory system<br />furnishes all sanitary conveniences<br />in each department.<br />During the time that the new building<br />has been in progress of construction the<br />firm has been producing from 100 to 125<br />dozen pairs of shoes per day in temporary<br />quarters It has occupied in the Roberta<br />and Curtis factories on North Main<br />street.<br />The cutting department alone is in<br />operation at the present lime, but the<br />stitching machinery has been moved to<br />tbe new quarters and the other departments<br />are moving as fast as possible,and<br />it is expected that tbe New Year will see<br />tbe wheels well greased and turning<br />throughout tbe big factory that is one of<br />tbe objects of Farmington's civic pride.</em><br /><br /><br />This is a digital file and does not exist in the physical museum collection.<br /><br /><br />FHS- Kyle Leach

Description
An account of the resource
A Farmington News article about the old stone lobby beng razed. From page 2 may 12, 1950.<br /><br />The article reads: <br /><br /><em>OLD STONE LOBBY,<br />HISTORICAL FARMINGTON<br />LANDMARK BEING RAZED<br /><br />One of Farmingtons oldest his<br />torical landmarks the old stone<br />lobby situated on the property of<br />Mrs Loren D Hunt. Sr on<br />Church street is presently being<br />razed and altough the large<br />granite blocks which made up<br />the structure, will still remain In<br />Farmington the building itself<br />will soon be only a memory to lo<br />cal residents<br />The lobby isbeing removed by<br />Murray N Daudelin, who plans to<br />use the stones for a retaining wall<br />on his property on Park drive in<br />the Veterans housing project<br />area. The work is expected to be<br />completed this week.<br />The old lobby was constructed<br />in 1839 by W illiam H Sampson<br />according to historical data con<br />tained in the museum at the<br />Goodwin library and although<br />no mention was made of its use it<br />is generally though to have been<br />intended for a temporary jail<br />where lawbreakers were to be<br />conflned until judgment was<br />passed on them. It Is doubtful<br />however if it was ever actually<br />used for this purpose.<br />The razing also serves another<br />purpose a safety precaution. For<br />many year children of all ages<br />have made this a playground and<br />the thought of someone getting<br />seriously hurt while playing on<br />or around it was constantly a<br />source of concern for the owner.</em><br /><br /><br />This is a digital file and does not reside in the physical collection. <br /><br /><br />FHS-Kyle Leach

Old Stone Lobby Made Landmark Farmington News Article, Page2, 1925-07-03
Description
An account of the resource
An article covering the Old Stone Lobby being made an official local landmark. It is located in the Farmington News, Page2, July 3, 1925. <br /><br />The article reads: <br /><br /><em>T h e old stone lobby at the junc-<br />ture of Church and Uionn streets has:<br />been perpetuated as a landmark of<br />the town by many improvements<br />made by its new owner. Downing V.<br />Osboune . This old pile of huge<br />granite slabs that occupies a pretty<br />plot of ground at the location men<br />tioned some timeago was threatened<br />by demolition and its heavy material<br />became likely'to be used in building.<br />Mr Osborne, whose home is nearby<br />saw the ultimate probability and<br />purchased the lot and lobby. He<br />since has made repairs to the falling<br />masonry, which consists of thick<br />granite slabs fashioned into a square<br />compartment, and has replaced the<br />broken iron bars In door and win<br />dow and restored the huge lock by a<br />facsimile of the original in order to<br />preserve for all time this historic<br />monument. It appears that the lot<br />and material cost only $175" when<br />purchased in 1859 and that the subi-<br />quont structure was the outgrowth<br />for a secure lobby for the town,<br />which to confine violators ot the law<br />who having offended the peace and<br />dignlty of the state, were required<br />to await trial. The lobby was built<br />by reason of a contract made by Col.<br />Louis Bell, one of Farmington's<br />early lawyers and trial justices and<br />also one of the ablest men who ever<br />graced the state. Colonel Bell is<br />highly revered In our national military<br />history, having-been made a<br />brigadier general on the day he was<br />killed at Fort Fisher during the Civil<br />war. The contract further enjoined<br />Ed Barnard, proprietor of the old<br />hotel that formerly occupied the site<br />of the Mrs. Lottie Russell property<br />on Main street, and William Sampson,<br />the stone mason of the town at<br />that town. The last named built<br />the lobby, it is thought, with the intention<br />of coverlng it with a frame<br />structure, which project no doubt<br />was abandoned because of the open-<br />ing of hostilities with the South and<br />it seems to be a fact that the gray<br />pile of granite never was used for<br />the purpose intended However, it<br />is a monument of Farmlngton's early<br />endeavors and a credit to Mr. Osborne,<br />who no doubt finally will dispose,<br />of it as a public benefit.</em><br /><br /><br /><br />This is a digital file and does not reside in the physical collection. <br /><br /><br />FHS-Kyle Leach
