WILL RUN TODAY
EXCITING CONTEST BETWEEN TWO
RIVAL FIRE COMPANIES.
Many Other Attractions to Wind Up
State Fair-Great Crowd on the
Grounds Yesterday = seventeen
Thousand People in Attendance
Symboleer Made Great Run.

The largest crowd of the week visited
the fair grounds yesterday. IL was esti-
mated that nearly L. 600 .ople were IN at
tendance including the children, who were
largely represented.
The day was ali that could be desired, the
atmosphere being cool and the ground and
= roads nice, owing to the very slight
shower about noon. The street car COM
pany, it is said, hauled nearly 5000 people
both WAYS as against Il, 800 the day before.
Nothing occurred to mar the pleasure of
the day, but the failure of the balloon TO go
up and that, certainly, was q great dlsap-
pointment to the many children whose
hearts were jumping all day In antleipa-
tion of the great canon parachute jump
The failure was unavoidable, however, as
the balloon caught fire during the process
of the imitation and all the light air escaped
1t will go up today.
Everybody has been SC well pleased with
the fair that another crowd will be in at
tendance today. Many of the visitors have
remained over to finish the week and Jot it
down In their memory as the most pleas
ant week of the year.
At II o'clock this morning no. contest
will occur between the gentlemen road
sters of Henry Schad aud DR.. Minnick.
This will be of great local interest owing
10 all that has been said about the two
roadsters by their owners. The exciting
feature of the day, however, will be the
race between the TWO rival hose companies
of the Wichita fire department. Both
teams will be brought up before the grand
stand fully equipped and manned with
the members Of the respective
companies. They will be sent
of by regular electric alarm and Il
desperate race of mile will be made, after
which a coupling will be made in front of
the grand stand. This Will he a hot and
exciting race and doubtless will attract an
immense crowd of spectators
The races yesterday were exciting and
especially that participated in by w. Il
Campbeli's Symboleer, who made the
time in PA amidst great enthusiasm. The
time would have been much less were IL
not for the condition of the track. which
was very bad in some parts OF 1t. The bal
loon also frightened the animal, but not
withstanding all these draw backs the
race was a good one and entirely worthy
of Symboleer.
The other races of the day were as fol-
lows:

How to IrrIgate Fruit rrec..

The old Mexican method is to set
 the trees in ditch and run in water
 until the land is waterlogged. Then
 the sun pours down it's rays and bakes the soil into an adobe brick. A few days later the ground opens In wide cracks, through which the moisture evsporstes from the roots, which are then scorched up by the sun. Further more the trunk of the tree will usual y be found to be sunscalded just as high up as the water reached. Now a totally different plan is pursued by our scientific neighbors in California and has been successiyely practiced in New Mexico Experimental College at Las Cruces. This method is open a turrow on each side of the tree and as near to 1t as the horses can go without injury to the branches. In the case Of quite young trees thIs will be about two feet from the trunks and the ease Of trees three year old four or five feet from the trunks. Cross furrows are also made 80 that the trees are sur- rounded by d water furrow on all sides. With older trees two or more fnrrows are also run between the rows.
 A small head of water Is then run ca slowly, so that 1t has time to sink down to the roots. By this method the ground around the tree is left dry and pliable at the top and easily kept free Of weeds. As soon as the land is 1 dry enough, d cultiyator is run be- tween and across the rows and the cn. ! tire surface left In tilth until the next irrigation. The result of this system is that less water is needed | and less often and in event of a scar. city If water the trees viii sand nns. | CT spell of droqth tina b Dld metb ! of Hoodirg Mesa er i-ess.
