BIG MULE SHOW
FOR TR|-STATE FAIR

No part of the South is more inter.
ested in growing mules than Tennes-
see, Mississippi and Arkansas. Dur
ing the past two years Memphis bust
ness meu have invested thousands of
dollars in buying up lands close to
Memphis ard turning the property
into stock farms. Planters in Missis-
sippi, especially the Delta, who used
to buy big gangs of mules every three
or four years, are now experimenting
In raising their w stock. 1t has
proven successful, and because of this
these men and their neighbors are
particularly interested In getting hold
of the best.
Secretary Frank D. Fuller Of the
Tri-State Fair has made a study Of
conditions in the territory mentioned.
He will, therefore, have one of the
finest exhibitions Of jacks, mules and
brood mares at the Fair this fall that
was ever shown In the South.
Mr.. Fuller is q great believer in
producing results. That is, he does
not want t advertise thing and
have people come miles to see anoth-
or. This year he promises a jack and
mule show that will be hard to sur
pass and to make 1t interesting for
the owners Of this class Of stock he
will pay special premiums for those
carrying OF hrst. second and third
prizes.
This class OF live stock will be
rent here from all over the country.
The jack and mule show win be
one OF the big features at the TI1.
State Fair. Watch for It.

MIRACLE PAINTING
AT TRI-S1ATE FAIR
Mystery Which Has Never
Been Explained
PORTRAIT OF THE cHRlSTMAN.
Wonderful Work from Ahi's Brush Is
Visible by Might as Well as Day.
Shadow Of the Cross Appears.

Visitors to the 1910 Tri-State a
are to be given an opportunity of view
ing one of the worlds greatest mys-
teries in the famous painting, The
Shadow OF the Cross" which is to
be placed on exhibition in Exhibit
Hall. The picture is from he brush
Of Henry Hammond Ahl, an American
artist, who studied and painted in the
art centers Of the Old World for many
years. The picture created a furore
among the art connoisseurs who Wis
tied the jamestown Exposition.
After completing his studies in Eu-
rope, ALL returned to America in
the fall OF 1896 and established his
studio in a New England city, where
for some time he painted principally
portraits and landscapes. Acting un
der the influence of some friends, he
finally turned his attention to religious
subjects. Amog others, he began paint
ing a full length figure OF Christ, his
object being to produce an ideal por-
trait of the Christ-man.
Al first he did no succeed in attain
ing his ideal, and the canvas stood
for some time, a source Of trouble and
vexation to him. Suddenly n day
the artist was impressed with the re-
a~lization that he had at last conceived
the idea sought after. He Immediate
ly arose and painted the c~ountenance
Of Christ which is e in the paint
ing to be exhibited at the Tri-State
Fair.
Not long after that time, while max
ing a visit to his studio for some mu-
sic, ALL was ~astounded to discover, on
entering, that his picture could be dis.
tinctly seen in the dark, and that
Christ appeared to be walking in pale
moonlight, while above and behind
him could be seen the figure OF the
cross.
His first impression was that the
0 was shining through an open
window and that the cross was but a
shadow, but this theory was quickly
dispelled by investigation. The strange
cross was indeed a part of the picture.
Inasmuch AZ he had used only ordi.
nary pigments, the artist realized that
the strange quality of his picture was
beyond his power to explain and he
vas 50 profoundly impressed that he
refused then and there to finish it
The picture remains unfinished to this
day.

there Is to be q wonderful teapot from

THE purpose Of every agricultural
college is TO give a student who
takes the full course a combined scier,
tlf1C and practical knowledge of all the
branches of agriculture commonly con-
Quoted in his state sufficient to enable
him to take up farming as a business
With every reasonable prospect of sue
cess from the start. He is prepared for.
each OF the many problems before thew
confront him. In short, the agricultural
colleges We're designed to make better
farmers, and the graduate has the pros
pect' of succeeding as farmer.
But perhaps this is not quite what the
writer means by prospects" MANY
graduates OF the colleges are called TO
become managers of wealthy mems
country estates or OF special depart
ments on the estates. Naturally, the
colleges themselves, as their work en-
iarges draw on graduates foi their
instructors and professors. There is 4
possibility that this field for graduates
from agricultural colleges who have no
wish to become farmers may be greatly
enlarged; and that thousands may leave
their alma mater with the prospect of
becoming high school teachers
CD The list is too long. Every state
has an agricultural college; many are
connected with state universities None
is better than the agricultural college OF
Cornell University. in your own state
