Watermelon Day. Colorado's original
fall festival continues TO grow In popular
ity and attendance. Thursdays crowd
was tho largest in tho history Of tho fair.
On tho morning Of Sept. 9TH all roads led
To Rocky Ford. clouds Of dust might
have been seen rising all over Otero
county but for the fine shower which fell
Wednesday night making tho roads
splendid and the following days weather
perfect. Tho Santa Fe's fvo excursions
and the regular trains. total Of l5.
brought throngs Of people in excess Of
any former year. Tho fair authorities
this year provided now and superior ar
rangments for handling tho crowd and
tho immense assemblage had full day
Of sightseeing and pleasure with not an
accident or unpleasant circumstance To
mar the enjoyment. Thursday was gen.
orally voted the mort thoroughly success
ful Of the series Of Watermelon days. An
attendance Of fifteen thousand Is = fair
estimate. The agricultural and art halls
and the poultry house were thronged all
day and the stalls and pens Of live stock
had hundreds Of specially interested Wis
itors attracting more than the usual at
tsntion by reason o: full and fine exhibits.
Tho parade Of premium winners in live
stock department in front Of the grand
stands at noon was most interesting and
was Indicative Of the great progress be-
ing made in this branch Of agricultural
operations in the valley.
The various trials Of speed on tho
track were Of a varied character and the
presence Of large number Of very fast
horses made this portion Of each days
prog, am both interesting and exciting.
Tho exhibitions Of handling bueking
horses. and the attempt to ride the buck
ing bull excited much interest and kept
the three grand stands crowded with
spectators.
The art hall was well filled with speci-
mems Of woman's handiwork--needle
work Of the various kinds in which the
ladies' take delight, oil and water color
painting. china painting. quilts. pillows.
doilies, lunch cloths, etc. In this build
ing was also fine display Of flowers
which had been assembled by
tho active solicitation Of the superintsnd-

E. N. Berry's fine display Of fruit was
particularly strong in peaches. He also
had some splendid onions and sweet po-
tatoes on exhibition.

pies of their Homespun Breakfast Food
Hon. 6. W. Swink's display Of honey

No Need to Try to Cure Good Habit.

Everybody and his sister and his cousin
and his aunt from La Junta attended tho
Watermelon Day festivities at Rocky Ford
Thursday. There wore also few people
from other towns among those present.
and Il is reported that tho receipts for the
day were 81 200 in excess Of those Of
any previous year. Fifteen thousand
would be very conservative estimate Of
tho number Of people in attendance. The
number Of Rocky Ford tickets sold in La
Junta on Watermelon Day was 1927.
which Is over 500 in excess Of any prev
ious year. Last year not over 500 tick
cts were sold during tho entire four days
Of the fair. Counting tho people who
went up in automobiles and their own
eonveyanees the number in attendance
from La Junta must have been at least
1900. The Watermelon Day habit is like
the booze and morphine habit-it's hard
to break away from.-La Junta Tribune.

In J. W. Brauer Of Colorado Springs

ness gratifying to the large crowds in
the three grand stands.
Holly was well represented and the

adopted-every man. woman and child

Piekpoekets reaped rich hai vest, a
large number OF pockets being reobed Of

H. c. Jones Of Colorado Springs is
able to run whole poultry show all by

including many Of the very finest birds.
The fruit exhibit of Manzanola was
particularly large and fine. John Har-
bert Of that place winning first premium

ler's display was notable for the great
variety and excellence Of its vegetables
and farm products generally. This dis
play had an entirely new feature.
Water from Crystal Springs was served
to thousands to show the superior char
aeter Of that towns water supply.
Prophecies Of decreased attendance
upon our fairs have proved unfounded as
this years receipts make 1t the banner

The Fair Of 1908 was the most success
ful up to that date but that Of 1905
scored decided advance in numbers and
cash, the receipts being $500 more than
the previous high water mark Of 1908
and 81 400 more than last year.
