MEREDITH
MAKES FINE
SHOWING
HIS REPORT AS SECRETARY OF
THE STATE FAIR BOARD SHOWS
MANY IMPROVEMENTS, AND
YET A HANDSOME BALANCE IN
TREASURY.

Frank Meredith, secretary of tn,
State Fair Board, today submitted
his annual report to that body. and IN
1t he reminds its members that the
next fair will mark the semi-centen-
nial OF the state fair, and urges them
to exert every effort to make 1t a fair
that will outshine all others, and also
makes recommendation for q num-
ber OF other improvements as to the
fair grounds and buildings.
The board convened this forenoon
with all members present. The fore
noon session was spent entirely in
the transaction OF routine business,
and so was the afternoon. save for
the reading OF the report OF the sec
retary.
Handsome Balance Left.
Secretary Meredith prefaces his re-
port with a review OF the improve
ments made on the grounds and
buildings during the year, and then he
discusses the fair held in the fall. The
report shows that. despite the In
element weather which prevailed, that
the fair was the best In the history
OF the state. 80 far as exhibits and re-
ceipts were concerned. 1t is shown
that every building was crowded to
its utmost capacity. and that for the
first time In the history Of the fair
the pavilion was overcrowded. The
receipts are shown 10 be S63,006.45
as against sol .s92 OF the year before.
and, despite the fact that many inn
provements were made and purses to
the extent OF s1so9.52 were paid IN
excess Of those of the previous year,
there is still left on hand the hand
some balance OF s5e71.10.
Recommends improvements.
Reyerting to needed improvements,
Secretary Meredith calls attention TO
the fact that the camp grounds are
crowded, and suggests the acquire
ment OF a nine-acre tract lying to the
south OF them, as that would give
campers more ground, and would also
give additional room for sheds.
He suggests that a new and mod
ern pavilion for agricultural. hor9cui-
tural and educational exhibits be
erected, and that the old one be used
for a machinery building.
He also recommends the erection
OF building containing an arena for
the exhibition OF live stock. and for
entertainments at night. and that the
art building be made fireproof. as un-

The exciting battle of Buena Vista
where something like half a hundred
shots we're fired in rapid succession
and two escaped convicts from the
state prison were killed, two wound
ed, and also an officer wounded, was
recalled today, when Albert Farris
one of the escaping convicts appeared
before Judge Burnett and entered a
plea of not guilty toaa charge of an
assault with a dangerous weapon and
robbery. The offense is alleged TO
consist in holding up Guards Davis
and Hertzel about year ago by Far
ris and the other convicts, and TAX
ing their weapons and also money
which they had on their persons. AL
bert Murray, another convict. is still
serving time in the state prison. but
an order will probably be issued dur

ing him to make his appearance and
stand trial for the same offense.

"SH0TGUN PHARMACY"
RAPED BY DR.. WILEY

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-"Shotgur
Pharmacy" and Shotgun Therapeutics
were targets for DR.. Harvey Wiley, chief
of the bureau for chemistry of the de-
partment of agriculture in an address last
night before the Association of Official
Agricultural Chemists. DR.. Wiley pro-
tested strongly against the use by physi-
clans of deliberately prepared drugs, con-
sisting of many substances.
"It is perhaps very natural for physi-
clan who is uncertain about n case to
fire a broadside in the hope that some of
the preparations may become effective,
he said, but in the experiment the con-
situations of hundreds of persons may be
ruined"
revision of the pure food act was ad-
vocated by DR.. Wiley, urging that 1t be
ordered that no drugs intended for con-
sumption in the state in which they are
produced or sold, should be permitted in
interstate or foreign commerce if they
vary from the standards set by the phar-
macopia.
