Hampton, June 2l-The preparations
being made for our celebration OF the
Fourth OF July. make 1t evident that
the program this year will out-class
any ever given here. The parade is
scheduled to begin at 10 o'clock. and
Will include a large number of decor
ated floats. the chartots of states.
trades display floats, and what is new
feature in a celebration here, a COLI
lection of automobiles that will surely
be the largest ever gotten together in
this county. E. l.. Coldren, an official
of the newly organized automobile
club, which includes every auto In the
county, has issued an invitation to each
owner to have his machine in line that
day in the parade. He estimates that
there are about fifty machines in the
county. and even if no more than half
of the number are in line, they will
make very imposing addition to the
string OF vehicles that will be on dis
play.
The committee on arrangements has
engaged company of acrobats and
performers who will give several per-
formances, free to everybody, on the
streets during the day and evening.
A baseball game will be one of the
attractions at the fair ground In the
afternoon, the local team being
matched with the Sheffield organza-
ton. 1t Is stated that purse of 800
is hung up for this event alone.

Burlington, June 21-There will be a
hot time in Burlington July 5 and G
when the annual meeting Of the Mis-

is held. 1t is said 300 motor beats
will be there when all the speed boats
from ST.. Paul to st. Louis, meet tc
settle the question as to which shall
hold the first place among the flyers OF
1909. There will be over thirty large
cruisers from st. Louis alone The
whole Of the Peoria Yacht Club is COM
ing, and In addition there will be with
these fleets string of flyers which
will make even the speed of the auto
racers at Crown Point seem compar-
atively slow.
The river affords a view the whole
way over five miles of river, so that
the racers can be followed as they
struggle with each other at top speed
from the judges. boat at the foot of
Jefferson street, both up and down
stream. The -mile-race will be
once around this course and the ten
mile twice around. All the accommo-
dations at the hotels have been long
engaged and visitors will be put to It
to find shelter
The railroads are arranging for spe-
cial trains and the steamboats, have
their capacity sold out already. With
such concourse of boats of all sizes
there will be afforded a spectacle
we'll worth going a long distance to
see.
DR.. Dixon Of Burlington, who has
the management of the affair, is in
receipt Of forty to fifty letters daily
asking information about the meet.
1t is probable that 10000 people will
be there to see the racers fly.

been received that grain is thin. Be
cause of the wet, some of the corn that
would have been planted was not put

Corn, however, is backward because of
the wet. cold spring but with warm
