MANY ORDERS FOR
SMOKE CONSUMERS

John H. Parsons. the locomotive engi
neer who is now at the head of two
million dollar corporations for the manu-
facture Of his patent for consuming the
checking smoke of the locomotive engines
and converting it back into more fuel
has been to work in Pocomoke City the
past week. Mr.. Parsons had equipped
two engines on the long and rather rough
run from Delmar to Cape Charles With
his patent smoke consuming device. One
was a freight and the other a passenger
engine. They gave such satisfaction that
the Delaware engineer set about to equip
the other engines Of the N. Y, P. & N
line. The corporation has the contract
for equipping all the engines Of the en-
tire Rock Island system, and a number
Of the New York Central locomotives of
the heaviest type. Some time in August
the Delaware inventor will go abroad 10
inspect the work Of testing his device on
engines in use in England and through
the continent where there is great de.
mand from the travelling public for a
patent Of this character.

WILL CONTINUE
GRANGERS' FAIR
Company will be IncOrpOr-
ated to Manage Future
Shows by Farmers

After a meeting that losted for nearly
an hour and half in the Security
Trust building yesterday afternoon. the
comnsttee that has managed the an
nual fair of the county organization Of
the Patrons OF Husban6ry, decided not
only to continue the fair but to In
corporate Il as stock company.
Starting from the little basket party
in Brandywine Springs Park seven
years ago. the fair has thus attained
a success that is commensurate with
the splendid efforts Of it's promoters to
make It profitable.
The fair committee had been author.
ized at a recent meeting Of the county
grange 20 decide this year whether It
should continue the annual fair or not,
or In what manner IL IL were continued,
TO conduct IT, With this idea In view,
tho committee took no the proposition
Of continuing the fair under a stock
company and sent letters TO all who
might be interested. asking their opin-
ion OF such a procedure. and II they
would subscribe for stock. The ma
ioritv Of the letters were favorable
and a large number Of the writer's have
already subscribed for the stock, so
that the outlook for the fair company
is prosperous even before incorpora-
tion. Stock will be issued at fire dol
lars a share. and II is intended at the
start TO have at least 5000 paid In.
AS the result Of the decision to con-
tinue the fair as a stock company, II
will not. of course. be conducted In
conjunction with the Delaware Horse
Show Association. as heretofore. IL
VIII be held on the horse show as
soclations grounds. however. and horse
racing will be one Of the attractive
features. although It has not yet been
decided what kind Of racing to have.
The committee will Mt once proceed
TO incorporate. after which a meeting
Of the stockholders win be called and
a board OF directors and officers
elected. Many new features win be
added 10 the fair II Is proposed TO
conduct the fair thoroughly as a busi-
ness proposition as well as an amuse-
ment. and the committee win make a
strong appeal on this basis to business
men and other investors, as well as to
| farmers.
While the apparent effect Of incorp-
Grating the fair will be to take II oui
Of the hands Of the grangers and make
it an Independent affair, grangers vii
undoubtedly be the principal stock
holders and officers. ana the fair will
really be a grange venture as IT has
always been. Having been built NJ
from such a small beginning by grang
ers. and having been one OF the mos
interesting grange attractions, grangerl
are expected to continue their hvel,
interest in the venture.
The committee which decided 20 in
corporate the fair comprises L. Scot
Townsend. Of this city; J. Atwoo
Weldin. Of Brandywine hundred, an
Frederick Brady. Of Middletown.

PROSPECTS FOR SCHOOL YEAR
Supt. Parke Busy With Preparation
for New Year.

The books and supplies for the COM

every detail for the opening of school
worked out Few changes in text
books have been made, and where
changes were necessary arrangements
have been made with the book COM
panes whereby the old books may be
exchanged for new ones at slight
cost.
The primary and first grades to-
gether with the high school will oc-
cupy the Bickel building. The sew
enth and eighth grades will be
placed In temporary quarters until
the Lincoln building is completed.
From sixty to seventy pupils will be
placed In each room of the Bickel
building. This does not mean that
the rooms will be crowded, as they are
large, and seats to accommodate that
number of pupils are being placed in
each room. Each room will have two
teachers. one to hear the classes re-
cite and known as the class teacher,
and one to care for the study period
assist those who may need help, and
known as the individual teacher. The
fact that we are required to place so
large q number Of pupils In a room,

OF either cleaning up the back yards or
sometime facing a heavy loss from

is it not about time that the boost
ers Of this city have some definate
figures on which to estimate the pop
ulation At present no two men
agree upon the number of residents
in Twin Falls and the guesses range
all the way from three thousand to
four thousand, according to the mood
of the person making the guess. The
Times would suggest that the COM
mercial club take up the matter and
employ couple Of men to obtain as
accurate list of the residents as
is possible with the rapid increase
The Times believes that at present our
population is about four thousand, but
to make such an assertion sure, there
should be little evidence gathered to
back it up.
