Exhibits At The Harvest Festival

The people in the vicinity Of Philip
or for that matter all persons in
Stanley county should be interested
in Philips coming Harvest Festival
which will be held at Philip Sept. 3,
4 and 5.
The committee on exhibits takes
this opportunity to inform all persons
interested in the festival and more
particularly in the exhibits at the
festival that the affair is a sure thing
and that we expect to give number
of nice prizes TO exhibitors.
After looking the situation over
carefully, it is the opinion of the
committee thatit would not be prac-
tical to offer cash prizes for exhibits.
No entry fee will be charged, and 1t
was the opinion Of the committee
that the people of Stanley county
who had choice grain or stock would
bring it to our festival for them as
well as for us, whereby we all hope to
promote the best interests of Stanley
county. However, it is planned
that ribbons shall be given to prize
winners, blue ribbons for first pre-
miums, red ribbon for second
premiums and white ribbons for third
premiums. In addition to this, a
great number of special prizes will be
given by the business men Of Philip.
for example, w. H. Wilkinson offers
a gold medal to the person carrying
off the most blue ribbons at the
festival. A number of other special
prizes will be enumerated below.
] lit is planned to make the list of
exhibits similars to that of last year,
except that we expect them to be
much larger, and to cover much
wider field than before, In addition
to the exhibits which were displayed
last year, the committee are now
making extensive arrangements for
the purpose OF showing all kinds of
livestock and poultry. A more
NCouAiOa dSSouuu VI SuCIl cAIllDllS
will be published latter.
At the present time we have the
following special prizes TO offer:

knives and forks to latest married

Dan Bierwagen is enthusiastic
over his crop of alfalfa on the
Cheyenne river. At the recent cut
ting the hay stood about three feet
high and was very heavy. We have
not ascertained the exact yield, but
it is believed that it will go over
three tons to the acre. Mr.. Bier
wagon expects to harvest another
good crop from the field this fall.
The alfalfa field is in the bottom
lands Of the Cheyenne, which over
flows and when Mr.. Bierwagen
seeded the land to alfalfa he sowed
the seed on the sod, without blowing,
then went over the ground thoroughly
with harrow. He has without
doubt, one of the finest fields of
alfalfa in the state and is Justly
proud of it.-Milesville Citizen.

OUR CORSET STORY BY T9 aH2 E AGa K X56K
THE CORSET LAGER

corset has a tendency to do this it does
not fit you. The corset should curve In
slightly at the waist line: but too much
curve will. after little, bend the bones
out Of shape. which gives the corset an
ugly look and at the same time makes it
uncomfortable.
Adjusted to the proper size the lacers
must be tied-never directly around the
waist. for this will eventually bend or
break the bones. Tie the LAGER in the
pack or bring it to the front, and pass
ing 1t under the large hook with which
many corsets are supplied. but which is
very easily added at home), tie it at one
sue. Another way is to pass the right
racer under the left front stocking sup
porter, tying 1t to the left LAGER at the
ioWef edge OF the corset.
" zen II can be afforded, choose a silk
Iacer, for it passes so much more
smqothly through the eyelets.
, ne length of the LAGER depends upon
the length Of the corset and the number
OF eyelets-some are as long as twelve
yards.
Unite and unlace your corset before
you take 1t off. Then it will take but a
minute to even up the LAGER and have ii
al ready to put on again in the morning.
II you will do this 1t will greatly lessen
the temptation to put 1t on carelessly.

tell you about the newest Of TRIMMINGS
They are made OF gauzy stufrs. such as

parently tiny circles of the material are
cut. run all around the edge and drawn
up tight, forming little sacks; then a
pliable stem Is wound with the same
oldtime balloon flower. and graceful
punches hang Imply wherever the artist
sees fit to place them.
The crown of one wide-brimmed hat
was entirely covered with mass OF

they are about the size Of cherries,
and you know how charmingly graceful
they are. 1 noted three women in their
