IMPORTANCE OF FAIRS.

Texas just now is thoroughly
awake to the Importance of that part
of the gospel of st. Matthew which
teaches: Let your light so shine be-
fore men that they may see your
good works Perhaps 1t Is not the
kind of good works referred to In
the scriptures that Texas is so anx-
ious TO show, but the good works in
a material sense which will give a
lucid and convincing illustration OF
the possibilities which yet lie prac-
tically dormant in the great unde-
veloped reaches of this state, says the
Fort Worth Record
That Texas is thoroughly awake
10 the Importance of removing the
bushel from the light is evidenced by
the number of county. district and
sectional fairs which are announced
for this fall. Throughout the whole
length and breadth of the state the
people are aroused to the Importance
OF fairs and expositions as a means
OF demonstrating the possibilities of
the soil and the accomplishments of
the husbandman. The exhibits which
mark these fairs are convincing in
their logic and demonstrate beyond
z, Z: lSsMSl;
ties OF the state in the realm of agri-
culture horticulture and stock rails
ing.
Where it has been fallaciously sup
posed that only a prairie dog or
COW could find sustenance, it has
been demonstrated by these pioneer
empire builders that nature lies
ready to repay most bountifully the
efforts Of the man with the hoe. Nor
is this oile-naif OF the story, The eli
mate of vast sections of West Texas
is such that semi-tropical fruits may
be produced in the greatest profusion
and the harder species. native of the
colder ATTITUDES, at once accommo-
date themselves to conditions which
the orchardist provides for them.
AT these fairs are being shown
fruits as we'll as grain and truck
crops, and even the mineral wealth
of many sections is being exploited
in manner that viii compel atten-
ton. Livestock and poultry, swine
and cattle, sheep and goats, horses
and mules are in the show ring and
the exposition hall in demonstration
of the claim that Northwest West
and Central West Texas are garden
spots which are most inviting to the
farmer and husbandman from the
oongested sections of the older states.
Unfortunately, many of these fairs
are held at points practically mac
cessible to the traveller and their dis
plays are profitable principally to the
neighborhood in illustrating what
may be done in each particular sec
ton. But while there may be more
or less heartbreaking delay in re-
moving the bushel from the light,
these fairs perform a function which
in good season will bring its reward
to those whose thrift and energy as
pioneers have shown the possihll itiaau
of a natures storehouse WIZ
awaits the coming of the
to throw wide the door and garner
in fields OF wealth almost beyond the
dreams of avarice.

An exchange says that there are
more young men in the penitentiaries
in this country learning trades than
on the outside. To this the Pfluger-
vile Press adds the following bunch
of truth; The principal bunch of
this is that we are educating our
young men for idle gentlemeni try
ing TO make lawyers preachers, doc
tors and clerks out of material that
is needed for blacksmiths, carpen-
ters, mechanics and other honest
hewers of wood and drawers of wat
er. It Is a mistake and a big one to
teach boys and girls to believe that
labor IS disgraceful and to do moth
ing for a living Is more becoming to
society. Hang such society. 1t is rot

country today. There are sons and
daughters who are now being educa-
ted to play the leading lady and
