COMING FAIR
AT BOHEMIAN
Second Annual Meeting of Interstate
Fair Association Promises to be
a Great Suc.Sss.
RAILROADS GIVE GOOD RATES
Will Return Exhibits at Owners Risk
Free Of charge-Grest Exhibit
of Grain and Fruit.

The Interstate Fair, the first meet.
ing of which was held in Bozeman
last year, is to be held this year at
the same place and is to take up a
full week, beginning Monday, August
29th, and ending Monday, September
3. Last year the fair was a great sue
cess and was said to be the best one
in the state. not excepting the Mon.
tana state fair in Helena, and the Of
iiciais and those having the meeting
in charge think that this year will far
eclipse the one of last year. Then it
was a new thing entirely and it was
necessary to build from the ground
up and hence it was not as complete
as II can be made this year. No eff
forts are being spared to make this
fair the best that it is possible to
make it.
Montana is a great state and yet
do d oNdlt IL mas bllS tnJoytu thdt
proud distinction for a period of about
fifteen years" says the Bozeman
Chronicle.
THE people east OF the Mississippi
little realize the vastness of its pro.
portions and possibilities; little ap.
p~reciate its mineral wealth; that its
broad acres of fertile prairie can be
made 10 provide homes for tens of
thousands of ag~riculturists; that its
rolling foothills can pasture great
herds of cattle and flocks of sheep.
1T is these vast source that the
Inter. State Fair association was or
ganized to develop and promote. II is
not local in its character; 1t is not
a county fair, its aim and purpose is
the development and promotion of the
varied interests of this great state;
it is devoted to the interests of all the
people within the limits of its length
and breadth"
The events for the week include
horse racing, trotting, pacing and run
ming. base ball games and ladies' re-
lay race, balloon ascension and high
dives. There will also be exhibits OF
everything usually seer at fairs. The
principal exhibits, however, will be
the grain and fruit and these should
be second to none in the country, as
all the counties of the state will be
represented. Missoula with its fruit
and Fergus and Gallatin counties with
their grain will make a showing which
will be well worth looking at.
The railroads have granted a pass
enger rate of one and one-thlrd fare
for the round trip from any point In
the state; and for the transportation
of exhibits they have given most lib
eral terms. The schedule provides
that the freight will be waybilled at
owners risk of damage, and regular
rates will be charged to the fair. On
return Of the freight, no change of
ownership having occurred, and with
proper evidence from the secretary OF
the exhibition, it will be returned free
at owners risk. These rates include
shipments of live stock, agriculture
implements, machinery and other ar,
ticles intended for exhibition at the
fair, and are good on all railroads in
the state.

ADDITIONS TO LIBRARY.
J. C. Walker Contributes Valuable
Relics to High School Collection.

Some valuable contributions have
just been made to the museum and
library Of the county high school
from j. c. Walker. They consist of
a number of newspapers from the
Philippine islands published there
during the service of the First Mon
tana regiment. They are the first
American papers published on the is
lands. There are also a large num-
Der Of the papers published in Mon
tana in the early days OF the terri
tory. They bear the dates of 1870.
'73, '76 and 80 and are Of interest to
old-timers and those who are inter
ested in the early history of the state.
Another paper given by Mr.. Walker
is the New York Herald of April Is,
1865, containing an acc7dnt of the as
sassination of President Lincoln. Mr..
Walker also presented to the school
a note dated at Helena June 13, 1866,
payable in gold dust and drawing in
terest at the rate of five per cent a
month. Some other interesting relics
presented by Mr.. Walker are a deed
for some property in Virginia City,
Madison county, Idaho territory (now
Montana. which is dated May %,
1864. just three days before the ter
ritory of Montana vas organized; a
list Of killed and wounded In the bat
tie of the Big Hole; also the steam
boat arrivals at Fort Benton from
1859 to 1869 as compiled by the N.
w. T. Co.
The high school board receives all
such contributions to the library and
museum gladly and will take good
care of them. Suitable cases have
been provided and great are will be
exercised to prevent injury to any.
thing so contributed. A number of
citizens have assured the board that
they are willing to lend the school
specimens and curios of different
kinds and these will be receipted for
by the secretary Of the board in a
permanent record, so there will be nc
question as 10 ownership. In this way
persons who lend articles have the
assurance Of the board that they will
have their contributions returned To
them whenever they signify their de.
sire. They will have the knowledge
the same time that the relics are be.
ing kept in a SAT" place and one in
which there Is rs. the danger Of in
jury to them this there would be in
the average private house, and al the
same time have them of use and in.
terest to the public.

Consumption is a human
weed hourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes i'm
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer IS
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when YOU begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you wont.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.
