A Booming State Fair.

The state fair has reached TIE
booming point. This week the associ'
alton has decided to put up purses
amounting to $4,000 for ten trottihG
and eleven running races, with huroie
and cowboy dashes added. This sum
of money will insure the attendance
of the best horses in the country
| The railroads have made reduced
rate of one fare for the round trip
good from Sept. 6 to Sept. 10th. Inc
national guard of the state will give
the thrilling riot drill showing troops
| in action against u mob. Graho
Army day Will be devoted solely TO
the entertainment of old soldiers
Of the state. The horse-shoeing con-
test has aroused u great degree OF en-
thusiasm among the horse shoers OF
the state, everyone feeling that he
has grand chance to win the mag
nificent prizes offered. On Wednes-
day, Sept. II, the great producers
parade, representing all the products
of the state will take place before the
grand stand.
The space still left for exhibitors Is
comparatively small and those III
tending to come in should apply to
Secretary Denny, Hamllne, at once.
Interest and enthusiasm i'll the fair
has been worked to high pitch, well
evidenced by the character of the dis
plays already guaranteed by the
farming community. Probably one
of the most novel features Of the fair
will be the presence of u band OF
genuine vaqueros or cowboys from
the banks Of the Rio Grande. Dress
ed in their picturesque costumes ana
mounted on their wild horses they
will give thrilling exhibitions of their
lie ON the American and MeXicans
plains. In ali OF its features, and
especially those relating to agricul-
ture the state fair of 1899 will surpass
the efforts Of past years.
In no one particular will the fair
be SO markedly u success as i'll its
live stock display, covering as it will
the finest and largest herds Of the
Central and Western states and the
famous breeding horses from France
and England.

Grant County Herald: Just after
finishing stacking his barley on
Wednesday evening last Hans. A.
Hanson, of the town of Gorton got
down from the stack and started for
his house, which was only few rods
away. A rain storm was coming up
and Mr.. Hanson had scarcely pro-
ceeded hundred feet when the bar
ley stack was rent in twain by bolt
of lightning and totally destroyed.
Mr.. Hanson was not injured, but a
hired man working in the stable, and
a servant girl IN the house were
knocked down by the current.
Fortunately the grain was insured in
the Delaware Farmers Mutual insur-
ance company, which has already adj
justed the loss, allowing Mr.. Hanson
pay for $50 bushels of barley at the
market price per bushell. This is
another instance that shows crop in
surance to be benefit.

Litchfield Review: The city dali
lies are making their annual howl
about the infringement of the game
laws. Everybody knows that these

pose of preserving the game, but
simply to keep the residents Of the
rural districts from shooting, until
these city fellows, with their $500
dogs and guns can come out here and
take in the best OF the shooting.
Such howls as are here referred to

There are several varieties of this ever

distinct and possessing merits of their
own, but Golden Queen is agreat favorite,
and deservedly so.

Moss Roses.
EDITOR Floral Department:

Editor Floral Departments:
Mrs J. S. p, in late number, says:
''Mr Mott is mistaken in regard to Moss
Roses being failure in Florida" Ihard-
ly think so stated it, Did / not say that
had never seen a Moss Rose in bloom
in Florida? will say here, have never
made failure with any of them-for
have never planted one here, but have
seen SO many other people that have them
am thinking that it may be with Moses
the same as with many other plants
they may be adapted to certain sections
and unsuited to others. wish y. S. P. :"
had told us what part of the State he or
she may be living in; is it down here in
Florida proper, or is it up north OF the
citrus section? shall be very glad to
learn of any varieties of the Moss Roses
that have proved adapted to this South
Florida part, for we are growing roses, all
from gratis or buds, and as we are in the
wholesale trade, we shall grow some of
the best Of the Moss Roses as well, for
trade outside of the State, and if j. S. P.
is in the lower section of the State will
compare notes personally at any time, for
it is information We all need so much and
interchange of ideas is what broadens our
information.
Two weeks ago to-day we planted bed
of Mel Roses, and it would do the old
Marechal himself good to see the rapid
development they are making. They may
not be a JOY forever, but will bea thing OF
beauty. Some time l will tell you our
mode of planting. JAMES MOTT.
