FIRST IN LIVE STOCK
Minnesota State Fair to Have a
Great National Exhibit
This Year.

Perhaps the most important feature
of the Minnesota State Fair OF 1904
will be the national live stock eXhibi-
ton which it is believed this year will
surpass all previous displays OF pure
bred cattle at this great fair. Several
Minnesota State Fair interested some
OF the great national breeders assOci-
ations in making exhibits and since
then they have been successful in
developing an annual display of pure
bred cattle not equaled among the
state fairs of the country.
4 This wear the American ShOrthOrn
Breeders Association, American Here
ford Breeders Association and the
American Aberdeen Angus Breeders
Association, join with the Minnesota
State Fair in giving special premiums
which in the aggregate will amount to
over $4,000. This, it should be
Remembered, is in addition to the
very complete and liberal list of pre-
miums given by the fair to all other
Breeds of cattle. The officers OF the
great associations and of the falr have
assurances from the exhibitors which
indicate that the display this year will
be the largest ever made on the Min
nesota fair grounds, and that the auc-
ton sale of Shorthorns and Herefords,
which has been made a feature Of the
display, will be one of the best of the
series.
At the Minnesota Fair, the cattle are
judged in great circus tent, so ar
ranged that the thousands OF people
can see the cattle in the ring, and the
auction takes place under similar
conditions. Cattle bought at the fair
are transported to the farm at nominal
rates.
The influence of the Minnesota Fair
in educating the farmers of the North
west in raising pure bred stock and in
introducing many fine animals to
Northwestern farmers, has been very
pronounced and has already greatly
increased the standard of stock raising
in this part of the country.
The Minnesota State Fair is held on
the great fair grounds midway between
Minneapolis and St. Paul, and this
year it will open on Monday, August
90 and close on Saturday, September
3. Half fare rates have been made on
all railroads throughout the North
west

From a cliff overhanging a preclpl-

a rope IS stretched. and fastened TO a
strong stake on the opposite side of
the rayine. The rope Is OF great length,

several hundred feet higher than the
lower end.
Down this terrible incline the vie

II Is for a chemical reason. which is as
follows:
Raw vegetables are easily enough

butter contains a trihing quantity OF
