dollars worth of their contents, went
up IN smoke, at an early hour last
evening. The origin of the fire is un-

after the owner and his family had
left there, the Possibilities are that
it was the work of a f1re-bug.
Every stitch Of clothing, every piece
of household furniture and every
pound Of groceries in the store went
up in smoke, and when Mr.. Fleming
visited the scene as early as he could
get there, after the ceremonies Incl
dental to the carnival, he found moth

TEN YEARS. TEST
OF ECZEMA CURE

After a ten years test, oil of win
tergreen, as compounded in D. D. D..
Prescription, has so thoroughly, so
absolutely proven it's merit for skin
diseases, that we have arranged with
the d. D. D. Laboratories of Chicago
for special offer on a 25-cent trial
bottle.
We ourselves became convinced
years ago. Cure after cure and the
testimony of the worlds leading skin
specialists showed us that the way
to cure the skin is through the skin;
not, however, by means Of a salve
which always clogs the outer skin,
but with a penetrating liquid that
gets to the inner skin, killing the
germs while soothing the healthy It's
sue.
The Oil of Wintergreen Compound,
D. D. D. Prescription, penetrates
while soothing the skin; and a 25-
cent bottle-a good sized trial bot
tle-is now offered, besides the $1.00
bottles, in order to convince every
body. For this trial bottle ought
to lbe enough to show the way to the
cure, and at any rate the liquid the
instant it is applied will take away
that itch-yes, just as soon as the
wash is applied, the skin is soothed
and refreshed. Crystal Pharmacy,

NEW FACTORY
At SANFORD
WILL ADD ANOTHER LARGE IN
DUsTRY TO CITYS LIST-MAkE
BARRELS FOR THE TRADE.

The following telegram was received
yesterday at the Herald Office:
Norfolk, Va, FEB. 2.
Have closed deal for immediate es-
Enlistment of barrel factory in San
ford. Big thing for city and all of
south Florida.
HENRY H. DEANE.
This means that Mr.. Deane being
alive to the situation confronting the
vegetable growers of this section in
regard to barrels has quietly en-
gineered deal whereby large barrel
factory will be established in Sanford
at once, says the Sanford Herald.
There are about 500 acres planted in
Irish potatoes at Sanford this season
and a large acreage in cabbage and
the growers were up against a propo-
sition regarding barrels for shipping
the crop. Mr.. Deane, himself an ex-
pert on potato culture, recognized the
need of factory in Sanford to sup
ply at once the increasing demand for
barrels and from his telegram he has
been successful in interesting other
parties in the promotion of this en-
terprise.
Mr. Deane has not returned to the
city to give further details of the fac
tory but his good work will receive
the recognition of everyone and par
ticulars will be published later on.
Sanford is the natural center for fac
tories of every kind and a good crate
mill and fertilizer factory will be
forthcoming ere another season
elapses. With the thousands of crates
of vegetables shipped from Sanford
every year the home product could
keep these factories busy.

The Kansas State Fair at Hutchin-
son. September 10th to 18th, promises
to be greater than ever before. 1t
has had phenomenal growth and Is
regarded as one Of the successes
throughout the entire country. 1t has
been largely because it is located In
one of the finest agricultural regions
of the great west that has reliable
annual crop production, is the natural
home of cattle, and health resort for
swine. In this ommunity are grown
all the staple products OF the farm and
all the breeds OF livestock. The farm
ers are most progressive and up-to-
date in their methods and use Of labor
saving machines. 1t is therefore nat
ural that they would support great
Fair promoted for the the god and
growth of the community and Of the
scope of the usual state Fair.
This year the Fair will be held upon
new grounds. The entire plant has
been moved to larger grounds and new
buildings built and many facilities add
ed. There is a new Liberal Arts
building 1OSx156, a magnificent new
grandstand having 1000 seating capa-
city, big automobile show building,
barns, pavilions and other facilities
for housing exhibits and showing
same, have been erected, city water
for drinking, sprinkling, fire protec-
ton and all other purposes; electric
light, telegraph and telephone service
installed, electric railway has been ex-
tended by double track to the grounds
and everything for the comfort and
convenience of the people has been ar
ranged for, even to a thoroughly
equipped emergency hospital tent.
More than $4,000 has been added to
the Horse Department and there are
one of the most magnificent horse
shows ever seen in the West. There
will be horses exhibited that will win
in the great horse shows Of the cities
and at Madison Square Garden, New
York. -.-.s1
More interest is being taken In
sheep than ever before and we are al
ready assured Of a large exhibit CON-
prised of many breeds of the wool and
mutton producer.
Various breeds OF hogs will be shown
as usual.
We have 10000 square feet of space
in the Poultry Department where
there will be a mile Of GOODS contain
ing the most beautiful breeds Of poul-
try and show birds.
The new Liberal Arts Building will
contain the departments which the
ladies are interested IN, the same be-
ing. Textile Fabrics, Kitchen and
Dairy, Art, and Horticulture.
The Cattle Division is where the
farmers will be particularly interested.
There is no doubt but what it will be
the greatest aggregation of fine cattle
ever brought together in this country.
A number of the best herds of the
United States will be present and COM
pete for the ribbons. 1t has become
as much of an honor to win a premi-

Poison IVY.

Poison ivy may be easily recognized
by its having three leaves on one
stem Instead Of five as on the Virginia
oreeper, which otherwise looks ike it,
The poisonous principle is active at
all seasons of the year but more so
when the plant is In leaf. Some
people are not affected by it, some
only by centacs, while others are
poisoned by merely being In its
vicinity. Various remedies are recon-
mended and all are more or less
efficient though not for the same
Individual. The most common of
these perhaps is sugar of lead 10
spirits Of nitre. Dilute ammonia is
good ia some cases. Copperas water,
the juice of nightsh9de leaves and
camphorated sweet oil are all recon-
meDded, though the matter is more
OF a preventative than a cure. The
latest remedy suggested is peroxide
of hydrogen, which will effect a cure
on most persons by single applIca-
tion. AS this substance is so extremely
valuable for cuts and wounds ii
always pays to have bottle Of it in
the house to prevent blood poison
1t is then always available for poison
ing by the ivy.
