MAIN LINE ABANDONED
FROM TODD TO RARSTOW

The old santa Fe main line from
Barstow to Todd, Cal, is now no
more. it having been abandoned for
the new roadway built for the double
track. only one track is in opera
ton. but it is only q matter oi n
short time before the second is com
pleted and thrown open for service
in conjunction with the double track
system extending from Daggett 70
Cottonwood, a distance of twenty-five
miles.
When it was decided to construct
the double track the fate of the old
zig-zag stretch of nearly five miles
from Todd to Barstow was sealed. 1t
was merely a continuation of curves.
The new track cuts in a straight line
the entire distance, and crosses and
r~e-crosses The old main line in nu-
merous places.
In order to get the new line In
operation as soon as possible the en-
ergies Of the several hundred track
men and bridgemen were eNerted on
one of the two tracks. There are
yct several bridges to be completed
on the second track in addition to a.

son of a splendid offer from fifty banks
in as many counties in the state. In

has been treated to a 100-foot exten-
sion. This was made necessary by
the increased demand for space from
agricultural exhibitors. The new
Dairy Building is also a monument
which tells the magic story of growth.
County Exhibits
Eleven counties displayed county
exhibits at the fair last year, and this
year the management is expecting
twenty-five counties to participate in
the big agricultural show. To date
the following counties have made ap-
pNcation for space: Johnson County
Custer, Comanche, Caddo, Grady,
LeFlore, Kiowa, Jackson and Wash
tia. A representative from Garvin
County this week gave fair assur-
ance that an exhibit could be ex-
pected from that county.
The association urgently requests
all parties contemplating making
county exhibits 10 write to the secre-
tary at once, making application for
space. No charlie will be made for
exhibit space, but each exhibitor is
required to purchase an exhibitors
ticket at the cost Of $500. which will
entitle him to admittance each day
during the fair. Each county in the
state with the exception OF Oklahoma
County is entitled to exhibit. Pre-
miums, ranging from $50 to $3.50. will
