hibit. Nevada county, which won a

A lumber of counties will make spe

to them, or in which they excel. Among
these, San Diego county has already de
cided to give special attention to its
gems, it being the chief producer of
these in the state, the number and quail

San Bernardino county will make a
feature of its cement and other build
ing materials Los Angeles county win
have display Of tiles with its exhibit,
and Ventura county will make feature
Of its sandstone display.
A feature Of the state display which
will be OF particular interest win be
the petroleum exhibit, which will be
comprehensive and elaborate. Included
in the petroleum exhibit will be sam
pies from every oil county and district
in the state and from every producer.
IL will be the most complete exhibit of
it's kind ever assembled for world g
fair. In accordance with the expOsi.
tions policy, to make the displays at
the Western World s fair illustrative Of
the processes of manufacture, rather
than mere collection Of finished mate
rials, the petroleum exhibit will in
clude the crude materials, the finished
article, and all the byproduets manu-
factured from it, so as to give a com
plete and comprehensive idea of the
magnitude Of the business TO people not
familiar with the oil-producing indus
try.
Besides the displays already men.
toned, there will be exhibits of marble
granite, terra Gotta, slate, soda and
minerals Of all kinds taken from the
different sections of the state. The
whole will be attraetively arranged, and
the ore displays will be shown in glass
eases. The new ruling, by which states
are enabled to house their exhibits in
their state buildings, will make it pos.
sible for Californians to see what their
state has to show in the mineral line,
without having to search for it among
the hundreds of displays from all over
the world in the Palace of Mines and
Metallurgy.

Bladder troubles almost always result
from a arrangement of the kidneys and
a cure is obtained quickest by proper

put 1t into n farm on the basis of 500
per acre and by hiring the work done
or by letting the fnrm out on shares
secure better return for his money.
1t 10 not easy to answer this question,
for so much would depend upon the
farm itself. upon his general knowledge
of how TO run farm II he chose to
carry II OH under his own supervision
or on the sort of tenant lie secured II
he let 1t out on share rent. If his
farm Of, say, 1G0 acres cost him $780,
600 he would have to secure n net re-
turn of S640 to equal hi. present in

he might. he would be quite as likely
to get less as lie would to exceed this
