"GrassIand' Not Free
Railways Decide New Interstate Law
Prevents Free transportation For
North Wisconsin Car,
(FrOm Iron River Pi0neer.)


Secretary Fairall has been
notified by the railway compan-
les that under the Amended In
terstate Commerce Act, that
went into effect last week, that
they cannot, as heretofore, haul
the car 'Grvssland' free. A
year ago when the car went out
on it's free movement under the
new state law it was conceded
to be legal but in connection
with the new feaeral law the
railways have decidsd that they
cannot continue free transport
tation even in Wisconsin.
This ruling presents a seious
question to the Mort Wisconsin
Farmers Association, now EN-
bracin ten counties with more
counties on the way to join,
Preparations to send the car out
on it's fall and winter tour have
been in progress for some time
with many new plans for a more
effective campaign than ever to
help settle the north county.
The cost of moving the car at
regular tariff rates would be
from $1,000 to $1,000 for the
coming season.
The Executive Committee Of
the Farmers Association is cal
led to meet at Spooner Thurs
day, Sept. 6, at 1 P. m. to con
slider the matter.
Secretary Fairall has alrean1
had offers toward a fund to
move the cae and he thinks the
needed amount can be acquired
from sources that have not
heretofore contributed to the
Association. While the secreta
Try did not so state, it is Inferred

WISCONSIN STATE FAIR.
Great Sums Offered for Prizes in all
Departments.

The Wisconsin State Fair, to be
held at Milwaukee from Monday,
Sept 10th, to Friday Sept. 18th,
viii be the greatest fair ever held
in the state. To illustrate the
rapid strides taken by the NNiscon-
sin Fair during the past four years,
nothing can be more convincing
than a comparison eli the amounts
offered for premium awards and
/ terraces. A few years ago $40, 900
was considered great sum of
money TO be distributed as prem
iums tor various exhibits This
year the sum Of $4,000 is offered
for greater variety OF exhibits
than ever before contemplated for
a State Fair. Only a few years
ago races for 5000 purses were
considered leading events. This
year there will be two races for
purses of $1,000 each, three for
81, SOC each and many others for
smaller amounts. Altogether $40,
900 will be paid for racing events.
Figures like these tell a story of
progress and show plainly the
leading position Wisconsin has
taken with its State Fair.
Such inducement, together with
the splendid program of specially
events provided by the Board of
Managers, will attract an unusual
ly large attendance at this years
Fair. Each day OF the Fair viii
be no table for some spectacular
feature. If the weather permits,
there will be an air ship ascension
each day, The evenings will be
brilliant because of gorgeous FIRE
works dis lays. The relay run
ming rpces in the afternoon with
daring girl riders as the special
attraction, the running races in
the evenin with searchlight eff
fects and the Indian Village, all
promise entertainment we'll worth
travelling many miles to enjoy.
