INCREASED THE PKEMItJnIs.
Competition Betwa"n Counties to be Icr
courngrd by State Fair.
(The State, 24th.I

The executive committee of the
State Fair society at the meeting
night before last made several i'm
portant changes in the premium list
by offering larger premiums for GER
tain exhibits, the total increase being
about $1,000, making the amount
set aside for the premiums some
thing like $4,000.
The committee also decided to re
new the prizes for the best county
exhibits, and it Is believed that this
will stimulate the farmers of each
county to prepare iino exhibits by
reason of county pride. The county
having the best exhibit of agricul.
turaI products will get a prize of
$3.50, the second best 500 and the
third 500.
The committee will from now un-
til November 9th hope and pray for
good weather at that time and if this
is had, it is thought the fair will be
great success.

A boy in the Wichita schools, Cal.
ifornia, was suspended for reading
the following essay on "pants:"
Pants are made for men, and not
men for pants. Women arc made
for men, and not pants. When a
man pants for. woman and wo.
man pants for Il man, they are pair
Of pants. Such pants don't last.
Pants are like molusses-they are
thinner in hot weather and thicker
in cold. The man in tho moon
changes his pants during an cell pso.
Don't go TO the pantry for pants
you may be mistaken. Men arc
often mistaken in pants Such mis-
takes make breaches of promise.
There has been much discussion as
to whether "pants" were singular or
plural. Seems to mo when men
wear pants they are plural, and
when they don't wear any they are
singular Men got on tear in
their pants, and it is all right; but
when the pants get on n tear, it Is
all wrong.
