AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY
BUSY WITH FAIR PLANS

II is expected that the reports TO be
submitted to the directors of the Nor
thern Michigan Agricultural society of
Calumet at their meeting, Tuesday
evening will show the society now has
close to $50 members. The membership
committee has been working hard and
has already accomplished good results.
Within the next few weeks ii Is
thought that the membership OF the
association will be large enough to
warrant more definite plans for the
fair, and the erection of a suitable
building where the livestock exhibits
may be shown.
The fair will commence on Monday,
Sept. 10, and will continue for one
whole week. The list of attractions is
not complete, but it is known that
those who have this matter i'm charge
have secured a number of good fea-
lures. The art. fruit. vegetable, and
eurio exhibits will be shown at the
Palestra, while the stalls at the driv-
ing park will be used for the livestock
exhibits and for the horses entered i'm
the races. Special features will be
shown in the building which is to be
erected.
1t is planned to make the races to be
conducted in connection with the fair
one of the principal features, and al
ready number of inquiries have been
received from Secretary Light from
different horse owners. Some of the
fastest and best horses i'm the north
west will be entered in the fair speed
contests and including a number of
outside horses

Houses Of Corncobs.

In certain parts of Europe corncobs
are utilized for building purposes. The
cobs are taken 70 a factory, where
heavy congresses crush and mold
them into blocks of various sizes, just
as bricks are variously nodded. These
blocks are then bound with wire so as
to make them hold together. They
are then soaked in tar in order that
they may be watertight, and, after this
last operation, they are ready for the
market.
This product is, of course, much
lighter than brick; and they are al
ways dry which cannot be said of the
brick. 1t is said that the corncob con-
struction affCsds a good house for the
poorer class.
