the rarest and most beautiful of living
plants and flowers and loads of cut

heaters, plumbers goods and wares,
house furnishings and general hard
ware The endless variety of articles

interesting to all visitors.
Another extremely rich and hand
some division of the group of depart
ments is that for carriages, buggies
and all fine pleasure and light vehi-
cles This department has the reputa-
tion of being unequaled by any SINH
lar show conducted anywhere. While
Columbus is the great center of the
United States for carriage and buggy
factories, the exhibit at the Ohio Fair
represents factories from very many
cities, attracted by the advantages Of
the Fair and the lively compe,- zion
for trade at this particular center.
An always interesting department is
the one for merchandise and musical
instruments, and this year it will be
crowded to the utmost capacity with
great variety of the richest and
finest merchandise, tastefully ar
ranged in fancy booths and attractive
form Here the visitor fingers long to
admire the many beautiful displays
and charming effects.
Not far from the group of central
buildings with departments distrib-
uted as above, stands the woman's
building. 1t is located in pleasant
portion of the grounds, with attractive
approaches and surrounded by rich
lawn. The building is devoted to eX-
hibits representing the work of
women, and is always feature Of the
Fair. This year many changes have
been made in the interior arrange

has been provided and the premium

from glasses fitted by them, also for
the benefit of others who be affect id

GEORGE W. FRAsURE.
MRS. LON LIES OF LOGAN
OHIO. SAYS:

have suffered more than words
can tell with my eyes for past few
years. Have tried different kind of
glasses to get relief from the terrible
headache that at times would make
me sick at my stomach, then my
eyes would itch, scratch and barn
dreadfully and would be compelled
to fairly rub my eyes out of my head
to get any relief. The light was
verv painful to them; I was always
glad to see a cloudy day. 1 had to
quit reading and sewing all to-
gether as my eyes burn, ache and
feel as though they were full of
sand, and become greatly infamed.
But since using glasses fitted by Mr..
and Mrs. L;ngerfeld I can joyfully
say have not had headache or
pain In my eyes; no more itching,
prickling sensation, can read and
sew all day long, also can sew on
black goods after night, something
could not do for years past; also
I use the glasses constantly to see
at distance when + am not doing
any close work.

1t is a matter of fact that there are
more fatal wrecks on American roads than
on those of any other part OF the civilized
world. 1t is very seldom that the English
people, for instance, are killed and in
jured in such wholesome fashion by their
carriers There is reason for every
thing; and it is difficult to dodge the con-
clusion that the reason for SO many rail
road accidents in this country hes with the
officials of the railroad corporations them
selves. The employees are generally trust
worthy and capable men, but it too fire.
quently happens that the employe Is over
worked. There comes q time, no mat
ter if man be built of iron, when human
nerves reach their limit of endurance, and
refuse to respond to extra demands put
upon them. Another reason undoubtedly
lies in the well-knoWn hesitation OF GER
tain roads to spend a sufficient per cent.
of their profits % keep their rolling stock
and their road beds in such condition as
to readily handle, without endangering life
or property, a sudden increase of traffic.
With overworked men and with over
worked stock of all kinds accidents are al
most inevitable. 1t is without doubt true
that the men who actually operate the va
rious systems are just as careful of the
lives and of the property entrusted to
them as they can possibly be with the ma
terial which they must work with.-At-

little soil from a field where peas do
we'll on the old field. Then give the land
dressing all over in a liberal way of
a mixture OF acid phosphate and potash
say 1000 pounds of acid phosphate and
400 pounds of munate of potash. Put
this on at rate of 400 pounds per acre a
wee OF more before sowing the peas. and
harrow it repeatedly, with the cutaway,
chopping the soil as fine as possible, for
next to humus the fining of the soil Is
the important point in retaining moisture.
Once get a good growth of the peas and
you have that land where you want 1t,
and it safter improvement is easy. 1t
will pay you a while to use the whole
growth to turn under after all growth
IS completed and the peas are dead, arc
then to sow a winter cover of rye or
crimson clover on the land.
They cry first crop thereafter will show
the effects not only of the nitrogen the
peas have gotten into the soil but the
mechanical texture of the soil will be i'm
proved and its misunderstanding capacity
at once improved. Then if you return
the peas there every third year you will
soon find that there is no longer the
difference between the WORKOUT land and
the improved, and being good clay loan,
il will hold plant food, and having mOls-
ture, it will deliver it to the plants. In
short, use the cheaper forms of CONNER
cial fertilizers TO enable the plants tc
get the most costly nitrogen, and then
when its capacity is improved use the lie
gume crops for forage and get more
humus -maing material in he manure
from feeding them to cattle.
Stop dribbling little complete ferti-
lizer in the hill or furrow and give the
same value, in larger amount, of the
cheaper foods in phosphoric acid and
potash to the crops that feed the land
and feed the stock at the same time, and
let them do the rest.

such an extent as to necessitate the daily
shipment Of one or more solid car loads

freight at this point, Master Mechanic
