FAIR DATES
SEPT. 19-2O-21
Preparations Being Made For
Third Annual Fall River
Custer County Fair.
TO BE AT BUFFALO GAP
Sports And Attractions of All Kind. Are
Being Arranged For-.-Some Good
Speakers Secured.
TO BE AT BUFFALO GAP

The Third Annual Fall River Custer
County Fair will be held at Buffalo
Gap this year, three days, September
l9 2O-2l. Atthe regular meeting of the
directors and stockholders of the fair
association held at the auditorium at
the Gap, Tuesday, these dates we're
selected and the matter of making the
necessary arrangements thoroughly
gone into. Reports from the various
officers of the association show it to be
in good condition financially. Some
little stock that had been subscribed is
yet unpaid for but committees we're sp-
pointed to take up the matter i'm
mediately to collect on outstanding
stock and to solicit for new stock.
The association has the grounds and
buildings all completed this year SO
that the expense attached to the fair
will be very much under last years
figures and will give the management
much more time and money to devote
to purses, attractions and premiums
On account of the dry weather this
year, some departments of the exhibit
may not be as large as heretofore but
the stock exhibit will be much larger
than ever before. Mrs. F. M. Stewart,
who has charge of the ladies' depart
ment, where the fancy work, preserves,
ETC., will be shown, is sure to give a
good account of that part of the exhibit.
Taken all together, this years fair will
be larger and better than any of the
previous efforts.
A number of prominent speakers
will be secured. Governor Vessey and
Congressman Martin spoke last year
and if possible will be secured for this
fair. Ball games between some of the
fast Hills teams will be pulled off each
day. Races of all kinds, Indian war
dances, merry-go-rounds, in fact all
kinds OF amusements and attractions
will be on hand.
The Buffalo Gap people are the best
of entertainers SO that in planning
your list of amusement trips, don't
fail to include the Fall River. Custer

Hot Springs Physicians in Forefront in
Application of Modern Methods
An innovation in the treatment of
chronic and malignant disease is being
carried out at the Sisters Hospital un-
der the direction of DR.. McRoberts.
1t has been worked out in the Europ-
can medical centers that there is cir
culating in the blood itself vaccine
or anti-body that will effectively combat
disease in the chronic form. In carry
ing out the treatment veiE is opened
under surgical precautions and about
three or four drains of blood collected
and defibrinated. The resulting SER
um is Immediately injected into the
tissues of the patient as vaccine.
Those cases under treatment at the
hospital are already showing q marked
improvement and fully justify the
further application of this modern
treatment to such chronic diseases as
do not yield to medicine,

sEvENTY-FOuR YEARS OLD.
Mrs. Fannie Barnard An Enthusiast,
Homesteader at Seventy-Four.

Probably one of the Oldest home
steaders in western South Dakota, is
Mrs. Fannie L. Barnard, of Oral.
Mrs. Barnard is seventy four years
old and arrived from her former Iowa
home at Sloan few weeks ago to take
up her residence at Oral. For some
years she has been in failing health
and for the past two years has been
practically an invalid. Part of last
winter was spent with her son, j. Il.
Barnard in this county and her health
improved to such an extent that she
decided to make Oral her future home.
She has filed on fine quarter and has
men at work erecting a nice neat
cottage 26x28 feet with kitchen
l2xl8 feet. There will also be nice
large porch 9x26 feet and the entire
cottage will be modern in every respeot.
Mrs. Barnard is as enthusiastic abont
her property as any of the younger
ladies who have taken up claims in
this western country.
