one holding the worlds record for
20 miles and for four miles, having re-
ceived a gold medal for the same.
Their act consists of relay and tandem
races in which they ride the fastest
thoroughbreds the land can produce.
The young ladies appear in jockey
suits and ride with light weight racing
saddles. There are three riders In
the relay race; the young ladies start
at the wire and race four times around
the half mile track, changing rapidly to
fresh mount each time around, In
front of the grand stand. This relay
race has been feature attraction at
the eastern state fairs for the past
three seasons, and this Is the first time
that the Zero Sisters" have been in
duced to come west of the Ohio river
In addition to the relay race, thrill
Ing dash race will be put on which Is
q distinctive feature by itself and will
indeed be a race from wire to wire.
This is only one of the many free at
fractions that will be offered this year
by the West Michigan State Fair,
whose main object is to give to the
people only the best and highest class
attractions that money can produce.

Enter Your Products at the Fair.

Every farmer and breeder in this To-
cality should enter his choicest prod
uct at this years West Michigan State
Fair, which will be held in Grand Rap
ids, Sept 12-1eth and will be bigger
and better than ever before
The object of this Fair, its main OBJ
ject, is TO bring, for the convenient
examination of the farmer, the latest
models Of labor saving devices in farm
work and for the pleasure and inspec-
ton of the representatives of the
cities, the various products of the
farm, so that both may be made mu-
tually acquainted with the possibilities
of each others work.
In connection with the possibilities
offered to the farmer and breeder by
the West Michigan State Fair. we wish
to suggest this thought: The farmer
often feels yhat among so many entries
he will stand but a small chance Of
successfully competing for and secur-
ing a prize. When he visits the Fair,
however, and sees his neighbor walk
off with prizes on specimens which
are inferior to what he might have
entered himself, he feels chagrined
that he did not have the courage and
confidence In his own work to take
an active part in this great exposition.
Take your specimens TO the Fair.
Make an exhibit.
II will pay you.
If not In cash prizes and premiums.
II will at least pay you In the knowl-
edge of having been an integral part
In making the Fair a success and In
having aided In adding to the respect
that the city chap has for the tIller Of
the soil.

COOK TO Be JUDGE
Unique Methods OF Determining Po-
tato's Worth to Be lnaugurated.
MIcHiGAN'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
defnite knowledge OF what is actually
demanded by the millers of the state
Tor the manufacture of -four. In the
same way II 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
nome. Potatoes from each worthy ex-
hfbit 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 It 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 a 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.

A Warning 10
Modest Women

Do yeu realize that the medicine
you are taking may be doing you
harm instead of good? Have you
noticed that the more you take the
more you require to get relief?
STOP AND THINK!
Are you using the same caution
in the selection of the medicines
you are taking for the protection
of your health that you would ex-
ercise In selecting trustee for the
protection of your cash?
A woman's ailments are delicate
subjects to discuss, and she will
Outlines bear the most torturing
pains without confiding her trouble
to her closest friend. or even her
family doctor.
This natural feminine modesty
makes many suffering woman the
innocent victim of merciless and
avaricious manufacturers OF adver-
tised, but worthless, "cure all"
nostrums.
II your ailment is serious you
should see your family physician at
once, but when this Is impossible
do the next best thing-take
