 Private Exhibits
 In connection with the agricultural department a number of private firms and persons have exhibits. Ezra w. Thayer has cream separa- tors. gas engines and various kinds of tools on display. att-Gilbert X Co. have some automobiles, and rigs and farm machinery. The ex- hibit of the Ceilings Vehicle & liar ness company is of different makes of the same articles.
 One of the most interesting of all is an exhibit of bees. apairy machin- cry and apaiary products by Will liam Tossing. The bees are under glass and by watching them one can gain a better idea of how honey is stored in comb than by reading q dozen books on bee culture Then there is an extractor. comb and strained honey and great cakes of bees wax. 1s E

How to Have the Best Cough Syrup and Save g, by
 Making It at Home.

Cough medicines, as a rule, contain a large quantity of plain syrup. If you take one pint of granulated sugar. add
 F pint of warm water, and stir about ?
 minutes, you have as good syrup as
 money could buy.
 If you will then put 2h ounces of
 Pinex (fifty cents worth Din pint
 bottle, and fill it up with the Sugar syrup. you will have as much cough syrup as you could buy ready-made for
 $2.5O. It keeps perfectly.
 And you will find it the best cough syrup you ever used-even in whooping cough You can feel it take hold
 usually stops the smOst severe cough in A hours. It is just laxative enough, has good tonic effect and taste is pleasant. Take teaspoonful every one, | two or three hours.
 It is a splendid remedy, too, for | hoarseness, asthma, chest pains, etc. Pinex is the most valuable concen-
 trated compound of Norway white pine
 extract, rich in guiaicol and all the
 healing pine clements. No other prep
 aration will work in this formula. This recipe for making cough rem edy with Pinex and Sugar Syrup is
 now used and prized in thousands of
 homes in the United States and Can
 ady. The plan has often been initiated
 but never successfully.
 A guarantee of absolute satisfaction
 or money promptly refunded goes with this recipe. Your druggist has Pinex

 DEPARTMENT IS FINE

Horticultural Commission.

Interesting and instructive is the Commission. Dr. A. w Morrill,, the territorial VI eentomologist, has placed on view number of photographs. dead insects. fruit and leaves at tackled by the insects. Everything is there. including the cOdling moth, white fly, katydid and the many diff ferent kinds of scale. Typewriter explanations are in plain sight, under glass, and on one side are bottles filled with the insectides used to com bat the. various pests.
 Credit for the artistic manner in which the Maricopa exhibit is ar ranged is due w. B. Leecraft of the Nickel Store, who, at the request of the board of trade, took charge of this feature and devoted a great deal of time to disposing of fruits and vege- tables in way that would be most pleasing to the eye.
 Yavapai Fruit.
 Yavapai county's fruit display is simply beyond description. There are boxes and boxes of apples-all varieties and descriptions-from the Fair Oakes orchard. Every section of Yavapai county is represented, from the mountain tops to the fertile val leys, such as the Verde Valley, Skull Valley and many others. The people of Yavapai certainly laid themselves out to make showing in fruit and they have succeeded. After viewing the exhibit one cannot help but be enthusiastic. Apples are by no means the only variety of fruit going to make up this highly creditable dis play. There are peaches. pears, and other fruits, and those who know say that Yavapai's fruit tastes as good as it looks.
 Vegetables are displayed in less are carrots, potatoes, corn, beets, cab be grown anywhere.
 Yuma County.
 Yuma county's exhibit is smaller but arranged to great advantage and is a credit to the fertile Yuma Valley. from whence the thirty-two different kinds of farm produce all came. The most unusual feature of the display is cotton in various forms, from the boil to cloth and twine. Few persons know that cotton is grown in Yuma county in commercial quantities but right there is the fine muslin cloth, the comomn twine and other finished manufactured products.
 Then there is the ribbon cane. some thing else unusual in this part of the world. Only a few vegetables are included but they are all high grade Among the vegetables are three or four kinds OI Indian beans There is no fault to be found with the citrus fruits. Several big citrons are quick to catch the eye and there are sev- eral varieties of Hines. to say nothing of the oranges, pomelos and lemons.
 Graham County.
 Graham county has a fairly large display of fine produce. There are fruits and vegetables of all kinds and some persimmons. The egg plant, potatoes. corn, grains and other things are all fine. Much of this exhibit came from the far-famed Gila- Valley, as good a fruit growing district as can be found anywhere in the world. Around Thatcher the conditions are

She can do all of that Moreover, she's good looking. But, come to think of it, I don't know why a small person should not have a big voice MT.

aggressive war assumes no desire for peace. In
defensive war our location is great defense.
In the second place, our resources of men and

any nation by reason Of its larger armament would
be only temporary in its nature and would soon
be exhausted by the enormous resources Of this

before these will come in large numbers there
must come change over public sentiment as
represented by the most prosperous OF our white

are going by the thousands each year into the

of the climate, for their preference for the Can

this matter the Statesvile Landmark comments
as follows
THE reason these five members received
such scant sympathy was because the
jority of the members had personal interest
in the case: the bill carried money for their
districts and the appropriation, demanded by
their constituents, would help to popularize
them with the people, OF course, SO to rs
per cent OF the money appropriated for pub
lie buildings isn't really necessary. AS
business proposition the Government can bet
ter afford to pay rent in many of the small
town, where the postoffce is the only Fed
eral business to be transacted; and the men,
bers who secure the appropriations know
that, hence their refusal to go on record in
voting for the bill. But it is not matter Of
business. The people have been educated to
expect their member of Congress to get
something cut of the Treasury for them, and
his usefulness. his worth, is measured not by
ability or by craftsmanship, but by the size
OF the appropriation he secure. That is
why public building bills, river and harbor
bills, and other similar bills, swell to enor-
nous proportions. The members of Congress
drawn together by mutual interests-in
answer to so-called public demand mind
you,-and they stand by each other. So 1t
goes. and the appropriations swell into bill
lions at each session. The limit will be reach
ed some time Let US hope the reaction will
not be disastrous

Des Moines, July Records in tho

indicate that possibly one of the causes
for the present tightness of money in

sale OF automobiles. The records show
that never before in the history of the
state has there been such a sale of
automobiles as is now being made in
every section of Iowa.
During the past week the average
number Of new automobiles registered
with Secretary Hayward has been
ninety. Yesterday ninety-two were
registered and the day before 1Gs We're

hundred day for two days. The aver
age number registered during the pas

When 1t is remembered that there

OF SO new machines per day are being
