Sloan Springs, Oct. 21.-A bold robbery was perpetrated Sat urdav morning two and a half miles south of here, whereby T NJ. Meigs was relieved of s750 in cash.
 Mr. Meigs received d letter yesterday purporting to be from his son at Summers, saying that If he would come down there with S750 he could clear up q couple of hundred dollars in an apple deal. The letter was de- liyered by two men. who said thev were from Summers.
 Mr. Melgs came to town aud procured S75o from one of the banks. Then he started for the appointed place. When a mile and q half from home he was suddenly confronted in the road by tie same two fellows who de. livered the message. At the point of guns Mr. Meigs was compelled to turn over the mon- ey. F he robbers then took to the woods after warning A1r. MeigS to return home.
 Neighbors and the officers were at onee notified ard an al day search was instituted, but up to a late hour tonight no trace of tie robbers had been secured and II k feared they succeeded in eS- caping entirely.

 Another statement made by Nr. Kirby IT his speech iu Springdae caused considerable surprise. not only to the friends of Mir. Hiuenou but to tue friends ot the speaker himself, was that Mir.

Hinemon. his high eharae- ter, and his standing among the people of Arkau- sas could not for moment believe such charge as that brought against hin by Nr. Kirby and were surprised that he would resort to such meth ods this early in the campaign. As matter of fact Mir. Doyne the present superintendent of public instruction. carly in September called Nr.

The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1907-09-01

For many years one of the great
events in the agricultural world of
England has been the London dairy
show, which is attended not only by
dairymen and others interested in the
industry in England, but by delegates
from all parts of the world.
Some thirty years ago national
dairy show was attempted in this
country. 1t was held at the Madison
Square Garden in New York and at
tracted much attention, but for some
reason unknown to the writer the
show was not made an annual event.
From that time until 1906 nothing in
that line was attempted. During the
year of 1906 a few men interested in
the welfare Of the dairy industry of
this country furnished a guarantee
fund and national dairy show was
organized and conducted with great
success at the Coliseum in Chicago.
Some $4,000 feet Of flour space was
covered with exhibitions of all kinds
of dairy and farm machinery and
about 100 head of dairy cattle COM
posed of Holstein-Friesians, Jerseys,
Ayreshires and Guernseys were ex-
hibited. With the aid of the United
States department of agriculture an
exhibition of milk and cream was also
held, for which gold medals and di-
plomas were awarded to the best milk
and cream exhibitions. Four thousand
dollars was divided among six hundred
butter makers, who sent butter for ex-
hibition, and about three thousand dol
lars was spent for premiums in the
live stock department.
The success of this first show was
so pronounced that letters were re-
ceived by the promoters from all parts
of the country urging them to make
the national dairy show an annual af-
fair, and in order to accomplish this
and make the show truly national, a
stock company was organized under
the state laws Of Illinois and capital
lied at $4,000. The stock of this as
sociation has all been subscribed for
and is held by dairy farmers, breeders
of live stock, dairy educators, cream
cry men, and others interested direct
ly in the dairy industry. 1t was de-
cided to hold annually national dairy
show.
The second annual show will be held
in Chicago from October 9 to 10, 1907,
and although the first show was pro-
nounced a great success, the second
or greater national dairy show will
far eclipse the first one. Many new
features will be added and prizes
amounting to $4,000 or more, will be
awarded to makers of butter and
cheese, breeders of dairy cattle and
producers of milk. 1t is expected that
at this second show there will be on
exhibition not less than 500 head of
pure bred dairy cattle including the
following breeds: Jersey, Holstein-
Friesian, Guernsey, AYRSHIRE and
Brown Swiss. The event will take
