that won't come off" these days and a
squint through the country quickly
gives the reason for it, Not in years
have the crop conditions been as ia
vorabIe as at the present time. and a
rich return for the farmers efforts is
no longer a question and the return
of unexampled prosperity is assured.
The county fair officials are also draw
ing good deep breaths for they can
foresee one Of the biggest and best
fairs in their history, owing to these
excellent crop conditions for when the
lord of the soil" is prosperous there
never is any question as to the success
of the Fair Society's big undertaking.

Received With Regret.

friends here last evening of the death
of Bourque and his mechanic Holcombe,
and the news was received with great

on the Knox team in the Cobe races
here. In their three weeks prelimin-
airy training, the two made hosts OF
friends among the citizens of this place
and will be remembered by their quiet
unassuming ways, despite the name and
fame they had achieved in the front
ranks of the automobile racing world
Bourque in the Knox car, is credited
with driving the most consistent race
in the Cobe trophy event.
