Total prizes. 5000. $4,000
All entries must be made and
exhibit received on or before
August Is, 1910.
The quantity of each sample
of grain sent should not be less
than one half the size of the
ordinary bundle of grain and
sh 1uld be carefully tied so as
to prevent it citing damaged.
There should be full bundle
of flax. alfalfa and clover.
These grains and grasses
should be carefully packed in
large boxes, with sufficient
openings to permit plenty of air
to circulate through, so as to
prevent the grain from becom
ing heated or mold while in
transit.
The larger the variety, the
more value is attached to it.
Extreme care should be used
in selecting, arranging a n d
packing each exhibit.
The department will simply
take the exhibit from the boxes
and display it, concealing from
the judges the names of the
contestants and the counties in
which the exhibit was gather
ed.
It may prove advantageous
to the exhibitor to have the
wheat, oats, barley, rye, speltz
and other grains stripped. This
will make the straw brighter
a n d more attractive. Have
each bundle securely tied with
cord.
All grains and grasses should
be shipped by express, so as to
prevent the exhibit being kept
in the boxes too long, and thus
avoid it having a moldy ap.
pearance. The department will
pay express charges. Consign
all shipments to-

WORLDS FASTEST PAGERS
AT STATE FAIR

~ q NooAA~O W SSS AOAA
of the. worlds fastest PAGERS at
their state fair the last of this
month.
The state fair officials have
just closed a contract with NJ.
W. Savage of Minneapolis for
the appearance at the fair of
Dan Patch, 1855, Minor Heir,
1:59A, Lady Maud c., 2:021a
anss Hedgewood Boy, 2:O2A.
Dan Patch, the champion of
cham pions, will be on exhibit
ton during the entire fair. The
other three famous PAGERS will
be seen in a race for the race
championship of the word over
a half mile track on Tuesday,
July goth. On Thursday, July
28th, the worlds champion
team Hedgewood Boy and Lady
Maud e, will be driven in an
exhibition against the worlds
team record over a half mile
track and Minor Heir, acknow.
lodged to be the fastest horse
in the world next to Dan Patch,
will give an exhibition in an
effort to lower the mile pacing
record over a half mile track.
This combination of equine
stars is the greatest known to
horse history. All four of the
horses have achieved world
wide fame. Each one is holder
of worlds records and never
before has the opportunity of
seeing so m any wonderful
horses at one time been given
the public of this or any other
date. When the horses appear
at Fargo they will make their
debut as a combination, NJ. w.
Savage has owned Dan Patch
fcrsss,-yen years, Minor Heir for
cne year and he secured the
famous Chitwood pair, world
champion PAGERS, only few
months ago.
The horses will travel from
their home, the International
Stock Food Farm near Minnea-
polls, to Fargo in the famous
Dan Patch private car, which
has carried the worlds cham.
pion a hundred thousand miles,
which is equal to four times
around the world and has been
the object of interest in cities
all over the United States. The
horses travel in luxury and
state and they are provided
with every comfort that brains
can suggest or money secure.
1t is expected that their stay
at Fargo will be of about
weeks duration and every one
who is at all interested in mans
noblest friend, the horse, will
have every opportunity of be-
coming acquainted with those
horses that are the result of
the combined breeding intelli-
gence of the ages
The Fargo exhibition will be
positively the only public ap-
pearance of those great horses
in the entire Northwest. They
will not be seen at any other
fair grounds in North or South
Dakota, Minnesota or Wiscon-
sin. Not even the Minnesota
State Fair, which Dan Patch
has advertised all over the
United States, will have this
greatest of equine attractions
since Mr.. Savage has contract
ed for the appearance of the
horses a the Pennsylvania
State Fair, the dates of which
are indentical with those of
Minnesota.

The TRUE FACTS
Breckenridge Telegram Speaks in
Ignorance Of the Cause Which
Prevented Ringling Bros. Par.
ade from Crossing the Bridge.

mdue Oy the ADVANCE agent on
Friday to parade OH this side
as has always been the custom.
On Saturday as late as ten
o'clock the press agent who
was on this side of the river
assured the people that the
parade would surely come over,
Word had been quietly passed
around in the meantime that
the circus people would not
come because the bridge was
unsafe. As Wahpeton has al
ways used the same dodge to
force people across the bridge
and as that structure had been
newly planked and was in the
safest possible condition no at
tention was paid to the old,
threadbare story. They made
the trick work this time how.
ever by notifying the circus
management at the last mo-
ment that. the bridge was not
in a safe condit,tion to cross
and that if they did 80 it was at
their peril aud they must as
sumo the risk. As there was
no time for investigation, the
Ringlings did not care to as
sumo the risk and did not
cross. Many farmers were
waiting here to see the parade
and were highly indignant at
the smallness of those of our
height ors W h o worked the
game which deprived them of
the pleasure of viewing the
pageant which they had driv-
en- many miles to see To say
that every Breckenridge citi
zen was "mad" is putting it
mildly. The railroad people
especially were 80 incensed
that talk of and organized boy
colt of everything Wahpeton
was freely INDUCED in and it
will take but little more of that
kind of treatment to put it into
effect. There are many insti-
tutions over there that would
make but a sickly showing
financially were the Brecken-
ridge support withdrawn. 1t
seems to us that those over
there who are interested in
maintaining friendly relations
between the citizenship of the
two towns would take it upon
themselves to stamp out and
stop such small, dirty work.
Breckenridge Telegram.
The above article appeared
in the Breckenridge Telegram
last week, and it is the publish
ing of such statements, as are
contained there in, that causes
animoslty between the two
towns. Had the writer made
an effort he might have learn

circus did not reach Wahpeton
until after nine o'clock. Max.

parade started, and leaving
them but little time for inves-

not dare cross the bridge with
their heaviest wagons with 18
teams attached or with their
bunch of over twenty elephants,
He suggested that the balance
of the parade 50 across any
way, but was informed that the
order Of their parade could not
be changed. Then at the re-

STILL AFTER WOLGAST.
Battling Nelson Confident He Can Win
Back Title.

Boston. May lightweight cham
pion Ad Wolgast is the boxer whom
Battling Nelson wants to meet before he
takes on any other man in that class.
The Battleo' declares that he will keep
pressing Wolgast till he makes him give
him chance to regain the title that
Wolgast took away from him.
Nelson fears that some strong young
fellow will get on with Wolgast and de-
feat him before Wolgast agrees to meet
him again.
80 long AS Wolgast keeps on boxing
only 10 rounds" said Nelson, there is
no fear of Kim losing the title. But if
he takes on fellows like Baldwin for the
Marathon route he is likely TO get trim
med.
"Wc]gast has promised me the first
chance at that distance and am going
to try my be-, It to make him live up to
that promise. II had trained properly
for our last bout Wolgast would not be
the champion now. If the referee had
not stopped the bout 1 am sure that l
would have won out in the end. If he
meets me again 1 am condent that
will! again be the champion"
