The Walters Tip.

Splitting five dollar bill with a
waiter. when you reach hotel and
promising tim the other piece when
you leave IL well served is a poor
game" said a veteran waiter in one
of New York's biggest hotels.
"A man tried it on me once. and II
made me sore. took pains to serve
him poorly, showing that l did not
care for his money. | was so careless
that when he was leaving he refused
me the other half. | had him sized
up for cheap skate, so pointed out
to him that the piece he had was no
good to him as it was and offered to
buy it from him for 50. He thought
deeply a minute and declined. Then
I offered to sell my half for SO. Some.
how or other this appealed to him,
and he bought it and seemed happy,
I'll bet he hasn't stopped figuring out
yet whether he won or lost. One
thing he's sure of-he didn't tip the
waiter."-New York Sun.

Tho Raising of Rice.

The cultivation of rice extends back
into the dim past, and there are no au-
thentic records as to when 1t first be-
gan. Evidence points. however, to the
Chinese having been among the ear
lest people to cultivate 1t. and such
great value was attached to it that in
the annual ceremonial sowing of i'm
portant plants inaugurated by the EN-
peror Chinnong so far back in the past
as $500 r. G. the rice had to be sown
only by the emperor himself. while the
four other plants Of the ceremony
might be sown by the princes Of his
family. In India rice has been cult
waited from time immemorial. 1t was
introduced at an early period into
Syria. Egypt and other parts Of north.
ern Africa. In more modern times rice
has been sown. in Spain, France and
ITALY,. the first cultivation in the last
named country being stated to have
been near Pisa In 146S. The plant is
believed to have been introduced into
America in 1647, when Sir William
Berkeley raised a crop Of sixteen
bushels from half bushel Of seed.

FIFE STOCK.
West Michigan State Fairs Great Cat
tie Show.

West Michigan State Fairs Great Cat
tie Show.
Noted for its cattle shows, ever since
its organization, the West Michigan
State Fair of 1910, to be held in Grand
Rapids, Sept. 12-16th, will excel past
exhibitions on the Comstock Park fair
grounds and equal any cattle show of
q similar nature ever held elsewhere.
A premium list of nearly $4,000. 90
helped to attract last year the high.
est class of entries, and the special
rewards offered by the Holstein-Frie-
sian Breeders association and the Am.
erican Shorthorn Breeders association
still further enhance the activeness of
exhibits in this department, and this
years exhibits in this department will
be greater than ever before. Increased
premiums and greater activity in the
past on the part of the management in
endeavoring to secure fine exhibits
have met with such generous re-
sponses as to insure a bigger and bet
ter cattle show than last year.
The special dairy tests, which have
been features of the past three West
Michigan State Fairs, will be repeated
this year. These will be conducted
under the supervision of the state
dairy and food department. For the
purpose Of encouraging economical
production and business methods, SIS
is offered, in four prizes of $50, $40,
SIS and So The tests will be con-
Quoted during the entire period of the
Fair. Special rates on all railroads
will be given to patrons of the fair.

COOK TO BE JUDGE
Unique Methods Of Determining Pc.
tato's Worth to Be Inausurated.
MIcHIoAN's LEADING VEGETABLE
PRODUCT WILL BE BAKED,
BOILED AND STEAMED AT
WEST MICH. STATE FAIR.

II is the desire of the management
OF the West Michigan State Fair to
make each of its departments valu-
able to the exhibitor and to the pub
lie in the way of demonstration and
education. For the past two years the
wheat has been judged by representa-
tives OF the State Millers' association,
the object being that the exhibitor, as
well as the visitor, may acquire more
definite knowledge of what is actually
demanded by the millers of the state
Tor the manufacture of -four. In the
same way 1t has been the endeavor
of the management to procure the
best commercial judges Of beans.
This year another innovation is in
trcduced. Potatoes will be exhibited
In classes and not as varieties, and
prizes will be awarded by two judges.
The first Judge will be the best COM
mercial judge of potatoes than can be
secured; the other will be the best
possible cook Of potatoes that can be
secured. So that the awards will be
made on the basis of actual merit as
demanded on the market and in the
home. Potatoes from each worthy ex-
hibit will be cooked upon the grounds
and scored on the basis of cooking
value. The cooking will be done by
baking. boiling in jackets, and steam
ing.
Michigan leads all other states in
the production of potatoes. 1t is the
plan of the management of the West
Michigan State Fair to determine in
the above practical way what county
and what individual exhibitor has
grown the best potatoes of the season.
The exhibit of potatoes, therefore,
that receives the highest award may
be assumed to be the best exhibit of
potatoes produced in the greatest po-
tato state in the Union.
Here is an opportunity for the
growers of potatoes to make q study
in potato quality and an opportunity
also for the different counties to show
what can be done within their borders
in the production of this important
crop.

stole all brass, iron and like material
that was lying around loose, but act
ualIy burned doors to get the brass or
IRON hinges, and even stole the hinges
from the big gates at the entrance to
the fort
This they sold to junkmen and de-
serted from the army, and among the
gang was a nom commissioned officer
with rank of sergeant. They stole a
ty and no doubt converted the same
into ready cash received from junk
dealers whose standard of honesty is
not of the highest grade, and who were
just sharp enough to ship the stolen
property away before it's loss was
earned. This happened at Fort Trum
bull, in New London, and there is evil
dence at hand that there are other
soldiers who could not be trusted as
bank messengers.
Cottages at Fishers Island have been
entered and robbed of some of the
contents, including clothing bedding
and articles of personal use. Some of
these goods were found in the posses
sion of the thieves at Fort Wright, and
at this writing five of the soldiers of
that post are under arrest and await
ing punishment for the crimes commit
ted. And still there are officers Of
high rank in the army who declare
that to refuse admittance to any SOL
der in uniform to all places where an
admission is charged, provided the SOL
der has the price, is an insult to the
Uniform Of the army of the United
States. is an evidence of disloyalty
and an insult to the flag that the SOL
der wears to defend. Tt is like unto
the story of the cloak and the multi
tude of sins.
