Interstate Fair at Trenton. September
80. October L, 2, B., A.
The great Interstate Fair at Trenton
grows more extensive aud important each
succeeding year, and the exhibition to
be held from September 80 to October 4,
promises to be unusually attractive and
comprehensive. Every department is
replete with interesting and instructive
sights. The blooded stock is particularly
fine, and the daily programme of races
contains the speediest class obtainable.
Circus acts of rare merit and daring, and
vaudeville entertainments of all kinds
will be presented.
The large purses offered for supremacy
in the manifold species OF exhibits and
contests insure earnest efforts in the ell
deavor to prove the superiority and
excellence in the various departments.
The Pennsylvania Railroad, as is its
yearly custom on this occasion, will sell
excursion tickets at greatly reduced rates
from many of the principal stations
within a wide radius, and special trains
over the New York, Belvidere and Am
boy divisions will be run direct to the
grounds. The tracks of this company
are the only ones within three miles.
Extensive preparations have been made
by both the management of the Fair and
the railroad company for the accommo-
dati0n and the convenience of the thou
sands who will not fail to attend an affair
of such increasing Importance.

New Oats.

We would strongly Recommend our
farmers all over this country to SOW the
Gray Winter Oats, and 10 sow them
largely. The advantage of Fall seeding
is its tufting and grazing capacity, and
the increased yield of heavy grain recon-.
men,ls it over any other variety of oats
now in cultivation. 1t Is only quas-
ton of few years when these oats Will
be very generally grown all over the
United States. See Ribsam 8 ad.

Taking Exercise.

Poor Harry Shelman, the long-haired
poet, who dressed his entire person to
resemble Buffalo Bill and who was, in
fact, startlingly like the greatest of
scouts, used to tell me Of a literary
friend of his who had novel method
of taking exercise. His workshop was
on the top floor of his house, far from
the noise Of the street, and he used to
write about fifteen hours a day. He
was not Howells or a Bronson How
ard, whose working hours never ex-
coed four in any one day. He worked;
he labored; he toiled. He had no time
for a bicycle and could not afford n
horse. He hated walking. Run he
could not Swimming was out of the
question. Still he must have exercise
He kept his dictionary in the basement
and his thesaurus in the kitchen. AS
he used both very often. it was neces-
sary to make many trips down stairs
and up again. and in that way he kept
himself in splendid physical condition
A visitor once saw him dashing down
stairs like mailman and soaring up
again like kite, and was distressed
till informed by Johns wife that John
was simply hunting for word and had
found it.-New York Press.

THE STEAM THRESHER AT WORK

wash boiler is filled with chickens and q
big srloin is in the oven. There is q
bushel Of potatoes to peel, beans and
corn to prepare, cold slaw to make, tOma-
toes to peel. A harvest supper table is a
thing to remember when seen by one
bred in a city where portions are cal
culated so exactly.
If there is long veranda to the farm
house the table is spread there-the ex-
tension pulled to its full length and
pieced out at the ends with tables from
the kitchen. Perhaps the white table
cloths will not cover the board, and tur-
key red cloths make brilliant squares at
either end.
At intervals are stacks of white and
brown bread, rolls of butter, pitchers of
milk, dashes of apple sauce, picked beets
and iam Platters of chicken cut in
pieces, sliced ham and beef and mutton,
and bowls of vegetables are placed con-
yeniently for the men to help themselves
as quickly as possible. Plates, knives,
forks. spoons and glasses are at each
mans place.
When the 6 o'clock whistle blows there
is futter of excitement in the house.
The girls run for the butter and cream
and milk, and some middle-aged woman,
an old and tried hand at making coffee
by the gallon, begins the important con-
coction. Everything is ready by the
time the men have unhitched the horses
and f1ocked up to wash at the pump. AS
fast as they finish they stand around the
the yard tanning themselves with their
big straw hats.
The girls in pink and blue ginghams
and white aprons give last touch to
their bangs and futter around the porch,
peer ing through the vines at the engi-
neer who has the controlling interest
in the thrasher. He is usually stranger,
and is considered a capitalist. Jennie's
fellow is dying to go into the house, but
is afraid of being chaffed.
When they do come in there is pre-
cious little standing on ceremony. The
oldest privileged neighbor sinks into a
seat at the end of the table and starts
the conversational ball to rolling with the
remark: Mrs. Smith. / just took the
liberty of Informing the company that
they wouldn't get no better grub any
where than they get right here, nor pref
tier girls to wait on EN-. For these and
all other blessings the Lord makes us
truly thankful That will do for bless

lofts on the newly thrashed straw after
an evening on the vine-clad porch. The
women are washing dishes in the kitch-
en-, but they subdue the clatter if there
are songs, and after awhile the harvest
moon comes up, and the katydids begin
their mutual denominations.
1t takes a week to restore the house to
it's ordinary aspect. In the meantime the
men are away helping neighbors. The
first Sunday after the farmer counts his
grain bags and slows sundry samples
away in little bags and he reads the agri-
cultural paper and city weekly, porting
for hours over the market columns, and
nobody disturbs father, who is figuring
on mysterious elements that enter into
prices.

at the supper table, and he informs his
wife that prices have been skylarking
