THE FRUIT FAIR

Considering the short time in which the eommitte had to work, the display Of fruit at the fair which is being held in the Audi torinm is very good. One of the. most interesting displays is being made by Mr Rorer. of the |. $ Department of Agriculture. Side by side he shows apples that were sprayed and unsprayed which were taken from the same orchard, and which were affected with bitter rot and with apple bIoteh. An examination Of this display will certainly convince any one of the benefits that will come from spraying, and 1t k to be hoped that every fruit grower Tn this vicinity will attend the fair and see and learn what has been accomplished by spraying.
 G.R. Dening, of the Deming Co., Salem, Ohio, and Mark East man, of the Benton County Hard ware Co., Bentonville, have on exhibition power spraying machine and give. demonstra- tons of the practical workings of the machine

HE HIRED WEBSTER.
A Sharp Nantucket Mans Bargain
With tho Great Lawyer.

OF course Webster,was In demand by
those who could afford to pay for his
services. A &, u Nantucket man Is
said to have gotts-.e better of the great
defender OF the constitution in nm
amusing way. however. He had n
small cnse which was to he tried ut
Nantucket ono week In June, and ho
posted tcA Webster's office In great
haste. 1t was n contest with neigh.
Dor over matter of considerable local
interest. and his pride as lltigant
awas Mt stake. He told Webster the
particulars aud asked what he would
charge TO conduct the case.
why" said Webster you can't nf.
ford TO hire me. should have to stay
down there the whole week. and my
fee would be more than the whole case
is worth. I couldn't go down there for
less than $1,000. could try every
case on the docket ms well as one. and
1t wouldn't cost any more. for one cnse
would take my time for the entire
week anyway"
"AG right. Mr. Webster" quickly re-.
sponded the Nantucketer. Here's
your $1,000. You come down. and III
fix 1t so you can try every case"
Webster was so amused over this
proposition that he kept his word. He
spent the entire week In Nantucket
and appeared on ono side or the other
In every case that came up for hearing.
The shrewd Nantucketer hired Daniel
out to all his friends who were in.lltI
CATION and received In return about ST.,
800. so that he got Websters services
for nothing and made n good profit to
boot.
