WILL THEY GET ToGETHER9
State and Central Kansas Leagues
May Unite.

"To be or not to be-" Is the ques-
ton that is confronting the holders
of the franchises of the Central Kan
sas and State Leagues. A move has
been started by some Of the holders
of the franchise in the State league
to have the two leagues consolidated
but as this would make the fused
league scattered oyer a great deal
of territory and 1t would be very
expensive proposition.
George Meyer, the holder Of the
Salina franchise makes the report
that the season of 1910 has short
age Of $1,000 and that he will net
stay in the league next year unless
the fans of Salina will raise $4,000
for next year.
At the meeting held at Clay Center
last night, the final report of the
management showed that the Colts
had deficit of 5000 for the season.
1t was decided that an effort would
be made to sell 100 season tickets
at $25 each and if this COLD be
done, the franchise would not tie
surrendered.
junction City called mee-ing OF
those interested in keeping the tmm
for another year on Tuesday Of this
week but only few showed up aud
the meeting was adjourned to some
future date.
The Concordia management has
not yet received the money due them
for the games played at Mankatol
as the managers there do not want
to pay for the last game, claiming
that no game was played. The mat
ter has been checked up to President
Kramer and If he decides that it was
a game, suit will be instituted for
the guarantee. If the $3.50 which
is owing from this source can be
collected it will be sufficient to pay
all the outstanding debts against the
association.

i you may be able to see wherein YOU
have failed and profit accordingly.
have In mind a fair that wal
held few years ago in a small
country Kansas town. Money prizeI
were offered in every department bu
in live stock. Most of the managers
were breeders of pure bred stocl
and showed their stock. The result
was that without one penny in prizes
the live stock show was one of the
best In that part of the state that
year. With premiums In the agri'
cultural and horticultural depart
ments a fine show in these sections
was made. The fair was started
without cent Of ready cash, but
1t paid out and made little for
next time. 1t was a success, not
because 1t hung up large premiums,
but because the farmers and breed
ers and town men worked together
to make 1t go; 1t was success be-
cause 1t advertised the breeders and
farmers of that section as a lot of
up to date fellows. 1t brought let
tiers of inquiry for their stock, and
land seekers for their land. What
was done here in the corner of a
county can be done In any county,
MANIFOLD, If the farmers, breeders
and business men will only work to-
gether.
Mr.. Breeder, fix up that herd bull
or boar and a few of those good
young things, and bring them in to
the county fair. You may not Lave
them in condition to go on to big
circuit, but they will show what you
are doing and the kind Of stock YOU
have at your farm every day. You
may not think the premiums offered
will pay, and maybe they will not,
but the advertising Of your stock
and of yourself as a progressive
breeder will pay many fold. Besides
you have helped make the fair
success.
Mr.. Farmer, bring in some OF that
good corn, wheat or oats, or any 9TH
er farm product you have raised. 1t
will not take long to fix 1t up little
and bring It in. The premiums may
not look very attractive, may be they
will not pay in dollars and cents,
but 1t will pay in other ways. You
have shown what your soil will do
when coupled with your Intelligent
effort. And you have helped make
The fair a success.

lhaye the idea that the county fair Is
managed with the purpose Of draw
ing people to town and getting their
money. That It is sort of catch
penny for the towns, 1t is true some
fairs seem to have been run on that
basis and with that end in view, but
the disastrous results of every such
attempts should satisfy every
thoughtful person that a fair cannot
be run with such an object.
In my judgment, to be a success,
the county fair should have a board
of managers made up mostly Of farm
ers and stockmen, with springllng
of town men. While 1t should be on
sound financial basis and be run to
pay 1t should not be conducted as a
money-making scheme. 1t is right
that the stockholders have fair re-
turn on their money, but the first
object should be advertisement of
your county and section. Show what
you can do in every department
where entries are opened, The pre-
miums may not be large, perhaps
the fair,is starting and must feel its
way, Bring out samples of your
stock and crops show what you can
grow and produce. If you win you
are more than paid by the advertise
ing; II you lose you have shown that
you have public spirit and are willing
to do what you can to make the fair
a success. Further, by comparison,

The county fair is an institution
Tat should have the support otev-
cry citizen of the county. 1t should
not belong to few at the county
seat town, but to every man, woman
and child In the county. Everyone
should have its best interest at heart
and help, all that is in his power, to
make 1t a success. To the fact that
this Is not the case Is due the failure
of so many county fairs.
Petty jealousies between towns and
the feeling on the part of many of
the farmers that the town is trying
to make something off them, has
blighted the prospects of many a fair.
Its success depends upon the united
efforts of town and country; neither
can carry It to successful issue with
out the help and support of the other.
At first, the fair was market
place where farmers and stockmen
met for the purpose of buying and
selling and trading stock. From this
1t has developed into the present day
fair, with its display of fine horses,
cattle, hogs and poultry; its grains,
fine arts and speed ring-all of which
are necessary to its success. An OPP
portunity is afforded to the breeder
of pure bred stock to display the re-
suits of his good judgment and skill,
to the farmer to show the results of
his labor, to the artist to display his
handiwork and to the housewife TO
demonstrate her abilities in the cul-
mary department. Almost every
line Of effort has an opportunity to
advertise at the county fair. This
being the fact the fair should have
the hearty support of everybody
farmer, breeder, merchant and ar
tisan), not only by attending the fair,
but by showing what they have been
growing or making, or what they
have for sale. The fair must be made
a success not only by attendance but
by display along the various lines
that will attract people.
Right here ! want to say a word
TO the breeder and the farmer. Re
this is your fair and not
the county seats. It means more to
you than to anyone else that the fair
be a success. To the stranger with
in your gates a successful county fair
does not mean that you have a bunch
Of pushers in your countyseat alone
but that your county has a bunch of
wide-awake, up-to-date farmers and
breeders. also. It does not mean
hat q lot OF real estate men are adj

SPEAKING OF ABILENE.

Hope Dispatch: The most sur
prising thing to US in connection with
the Flack bank robbery is that the
state bank officials could examine
that bank several times a year and
not know anything about its condi-
ton. What are we taxed to pay
them for If they are no good? Surely
| it reflects on them more than on
the owners of the bank.
Clay Center Times: A certain gent
made Flack lay down something like
three aces and fork over at the
same time fine wad Of money one
hot summer night as the crescent
moon swung around the towns west
ern limits to avoid the city license
they put on everything over in Abb
lene. That is the story at least that
filtered. Mr.. Flack had plenty of
courage they tell in such emergencies
but 1t is evident he lacked discrimi-
mating judgment, did not understand
relative values, was inclined to SER
iously doubt the other fellows
ability, and all such. Maybe, too,
in the light of this rumor, Mr.. Flack
toyed with Abilene's fifty-two leaved
Bible frequently, and this is where
the money went.
Concordla Kansan: Added to
their other troubles at Abilene is the
removal of c. W. Parker's merry
go-round factory from that town to
Leavenworth. 1t never rains but 1t
pours. Necessity may be the
mother Of invention all right enough
but necessity is not always the
mother of thieves, as will be noted
by the news from Abilene and Wich-
tia. If the people of Abilene
should take a notion to hang that
man Flack to the cross arm OF lele-
phone pole, should he be captured
and brought back there, 1t wouldn't
hurt the reputation Of the people OF
that town in the estimation of many
folks in Kansas.
