I, tagcs to be gained by giving attention
! to the best In every line
The following glowing account of the
fair appeared in the Garland GLOBE:
"Speaking of the fair 1t was mann
moth thing of great credit. The day
we visited the fair $1,000 friends were
with us and 1t kept us busy to keep out
OF the way of others. The exhibits
(from entrance to the tail end of the
grounds) were grand, glorious, mag
niRcent, enormous, numerous ana
gigantic. Such fair--well. you can't
beat 1t. All the attractions were eS-
ceptlonally good, the racing events
splendid. the displays grand and the
whole thing a Custer from the word
so.
I'VE can give you but brief out
line of this big fair, but you ought to
have been there you missed half your
life. Three cheers for the manage
The Dcscrct Farmer was kind enough
to say:
state place the proper estimate on the
scrviccs of the men and women VINO
constitute the directorate OF the state
Fair. These men and women give free
ly OF their services each year ana re-
ceivc no compensation Whatever lor
the time spent.
The state Fair just closed involved
considerable planning and no doubt
many meetings were held and much
time and energy expended in preparing
for such magnificent display. In
giving their time and energy they ar"
performing the best kind of public
service, test of the highest citlzcn-
ship.
''rhe Descrct Farmer extends its con-
gratulatons upon tho success of the
fair and in behalf of its readers eX-
tends to the management our sincere
thanks for the opportunity afforded us
of seeing Utah's Industries so splendid
~ presented"
Those to whom credit is due for the
success OF the 1910 fair as referred to
in The Farmer are:
SUPERVISORS.

After these favorable comments, wc
feel justified in saying the State Fair
is an Indispensable institution. 1t has
many aims. and accomplishes much.

LION STORE
MILL END
SALE IS ON

The Lion store mill end sale is on,
and in the light OF recent sales the bare
announcement of this semi annual
event would be enough. But there are
features in connection with this sale
that cannot be overlooked by the peo-
pie OF Lake county and the whole sur
rounding territory.
The mill end sale this winter is larg-
er than ever in its history. More goods
have been placed on the shelves than
ever before. this being possible because
of the additional floor space that the
store has acquired through its new ad-
dition- The aisles are wider, thus Civ
ing customers better opportunity to
get at the bargains. Sales have been
put on in every department and the
values that are being offered are simply
amazing
At o'clock this morning the aisles
were crowded with shoppers who came
early to avoid the rush and get their
pick of the bargains. The shoppers
were mainly women. who found them
selves in regular paradise. with pleh-
ty of opportunities to find bargains.

'AG|IATORS STILL BUSY
At THE STANDARD.
Rumor Has It That Trouble
VIII Be Renewed on
18th CT Month.
PARASITES ARE VERY ACTIVE
Businessmen and Saloonkeepers In
District Do Not Want Recur-
renee of Trouble.
BULLETIN.,

(BULLETTN.)
The riveters at the Standard Steel
Car, including possibly 200 men, were
reported to have gone out this noon
This svns not unexpected, ngftators were
permitted to minsIe with them since
the first strike was settled.
1t is reported at the STANDARD district
that the agitators there who are still
trying to foment trouble have decided
to call another strike on the 5th of the
month.
This report cannot be definitely con-
hrmed, but is the common report.
Whether the foreigners at the Stand
ard Will again follow the lead Of these
agitators remains to be seen.
In the meantime the business men in
the Standard district are very much
opposed to the calling of any more
strikes. They have found that their
customers get into debt instead of pay
ing for their provisions and clothing
and that a strike paralyzes the busi-
ness of the community.
Even the saloonkeepers do not like
the idea of having their places closed
up again and are doing all they can to
prevent a re-occurrence of the trou-
BILE.
1t is understood that steps are to be
taken by the busienss men OF the
Standard district to rid themselves of
the parasites woh have been living on
the community so long and whose sole
business is to stir up trouble.
The property owners in the Standard
district are looking forward to great
boom If thisla Dor agitation can be kept
down and the plant is permitted to run
without interference.
Many OF them paid large sums for
their property anticipating that, with
the employing of several thousand men,
their property would be greatly in
creased in value Instead they have
been compelled to bear the burdens of
taxation and of making improvements
when there was little revenue coming

TO hurry the job, but the latter saws

that the board has permitted non-union

again.
In the meantime the company which
