Declare Beltrami Show Surpasses in
Many Ways, Corn and Stock
Being Leaders.
ALL AWARDS ARE NOW MADE
Horse, Auto and Other Races Mark
Closing Day of Successful Exposi-
ton Here.

With another large attendance,
the third and last day of the Bel
trami county fair is coming to a
successful close.
The awarding of premiums and
jndging of stock has been completed
by experts from the State Agricult:
ural and other state schools who de-
clare the exposition here to be the
most remarkable in some ways of
any county fair they have ever
witnessed.
A. J. Mcclure, superintendent of
the Northwest Experimental Farm
at Grand Rapids, says:
There has been an increase of
200 per cent in the dairy exhibits
here over last year. The ring of
dairy sires are as fine as at any
fair, even in southern Minnesota,
that I have seen this year, and the
exhibit here is running to the
Guernesy breed, which has been
especially fine.
The plan of the exhibit here this
year is the best arrangement have
ever seen at county fair"
Forrest H. Sargent, of the College
of Agriculture. who assisted in the
judging of the stock, said:
"This is my FIRST visit to north
ern Minnesota and l want to say
that the fair was a surprise to me,
especially the fine showing in
dairy stock. The dairy stock
shows that Beltrami county is al
ready raising stock that will do
credit to any state fair. l found
the competition keen in several
classes of pure bred stock. The
hogs, sheep and poultry also in
Dictated that the farmers here are
prosperous and are making splen~
did advancement.
J. V. Baily, of the Greenway
Fruit Farm of Newport, Minn.,
recognized authority on the grow
ing Of garden vegetables, and one
of the judges in this line said:
The vegetable exhibit at the Be-
midi fair would do credit to any
county in the state. The potato ex-
hibit was wonderfully good and
shows a great future for the county
in this line. Root crops are of fine
quality and grow on an unusual size.
The fair, as a whole, showed good
management and the exhibits excel
those that were brought to the state
fair from Beltrami county and made
such a Sensational showing."
Thomas Cooper, assistant agri-
culturist of the Minnesota Expert
ment Station said:
The Development of Beltrami
county agriculturally. was we'll
shown by the corn, grain and grass
exhibits. Only a few years ago
when invited here as judge, all
exhibits were comp aratively poor.
No corn was shown. This year the
exhibit is especially good and one
that the county may we'll feel proud
of and would appear we'll in any of
the southern counties.
I was particularly pleased wit b
the Dent corn exhibited. Both
Minnesota No. % and No. 10 showed
up we'll. The farmers of Beltra mi
county should make closer study
of the methods of corn culture and
selection.

and alfalfa were of the highest

ROOTS THAT NEEDED SOAKING
Pat at Least Told the Exact Truth in
His Application for
Whisky.

The town of Dedham is under pro.
hibition law, a~pothecaries alone being
permitted to sell alcoholic stimulants.
The other day a son of the Emerald
Isle entered a drug store there, and,
taking a bottle from his pocket, asked
for a quart of whisky. The salesman
asked to what use it was to be put,
and the reply was:
ITO soak roots in it,"
The order was filled, and the clerk,
after handing owe the bottle and its
contents, inquired, in a conversational
manner:
What kind of roots are you going
10 soak?"
Pocketing the bottle, the customer
said:
THE roots of my tongue. be jabers!"

MRS. PINKHAMs STANDING INVITATIONS:

Women sufferingfrom any formo of female weakness arein-
vited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn
Mass. Ali letters are received, opened, read and answered by
women. A woman can freely talk of her private illness
to a woman; thus has been established this confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which
has never been broken. Never has she published a testi-
monial or used a letter without the written consent of the
writer, and never has the company allowed these conf
dental letters to get out of their possession, as the hun
dreds of thousands of them in their files will attest.
Out of the vast volume of experience which Mrs. Pink
ham has to draw from, it is more than possible that she
has gained the very knowledge needed in your case.
She asks nothing in return except your good will, and her
advice has helped thousands. Surely any woman, rich or
poor, should be glad to take advantage of this generous
offer of assistance. Address Mrs. Pinkham, care OF Lydia

This Fact that in addressing Mrs. Pinkham you are con-
fding YOUR private ills to a woman "a woman whose ex-
perience with womens diseases covers twenty-five years.
The present Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-inlaw of Lydia E.
Pinkham, was for years under her direction, and has ever
since her decease continued to advise women.
Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad
to worse, knowing well that they ought to have immediate
assistance, but a natural modesty causes them to shrink
from exposing themselves to the questions and probable
examinations of even their family physician. Such ques-
tioning and examination is unnecessary. Without cost
you can consult a woman whose knowledge from actual
experience is great.
