President T. X. Lisle had his car
riages gather up the visiting and
local newspaper people and drove
them over the Fair grounds on old
settlers day. While there is much to
do yet in the way OF building, grad
ing, etc., work is progressing salts
factory and everything will be com.
pleted and in good shape to open the
Fair on the 10th OF October, as sd-
vertised. Weather conditions being
favorable, this promises to be the
best county fair ever held in this Sec
ton OF the state. There are many
things contributing to this end. It
has been many years since a purely
agricultural fair was held at the
county seat. and our people are ripe
for such an enterprise. This year of
plenty, when every farmer who cares
to, has products worthy to be e1hi-
bited. 1t is to be held sta time when
work on the farm is slack and the
farmer has time for recreation. The
last few years have witnessed q won
deriul improvement in the breed Of
| ell kinds Of stock. Thus we are en-.
couraged to predict a splendid fair.

Both armies are in strongly fortified po-

The ground is frozen solid to a. cOnsidera-

opinion that the big battle which must
take place for the. possession of Mukden
will not occur until u oreaS in the wealth

would take the offensive. The. advanced
line on either side, is separated by only 500
yards Either side taking the offensive
before the thaw must suffer heavy loss.
