 AT ARKANSAS STATE FAIR
Negotiations Are Now Pending for the Employment of Harry Atwood, the
 Most Daring of Aviators.

Hot Springs, Ark.-(Special. 1.-The management of the Arkansas State Fair is negotiating with Harry N. At wood for aeroplane flights at Hot Springs during the six days of the lair, October 3 to IA Negotiations are also pending with the Wright Broth CTS, the father of aviation and invent ors of the aeroplane. It is probable tbat Atwood will be retained, as his recent flight from St Louis to the sea, breaking the worlds record for long distance cross country flights, has given him a national reputation as The King of Bird Men" This will prove one of the greatest of attrac- tions. and thousands from all parts of the state will undoubtedly take advan- tage of this opportunity to see aero blaming in it's highest art, and at the same time take in the great exposi- ton with all it's other interesting sights.
 The plan includes two flights daily in which the aviator will rise grace fully from in front of the grand stand, circle the mile track, show all the thrills of the art. short turns, dips, cut figure eights. race the fastest au- tomobiles around the course, ascend to giddy attitudes and descend with the famous spiral glide. Thus the pa. irons of the Arkansas State Fair will for the nominal sum of admission see the worlds most famous aviator in all the daring deeds ever performed in mid air. t~,4

TO KEEP BUTTER COOL.
here to please you
Ww~

A convenient and easy way to keep butter cool is by applying the principle of cooling by evaporation, as used in the wet bulb of the wet and dry bulb hygrometer. The but ter is placed in closed receptacle (butter dish with lid) and after this has been placed in a soup plate con- taining water wet cloth is put over the dish with its ends in the water. Evaporation goes on at the surface of the cloth, and more water Is SUD- piled to the cloth from the place below. This keeps the cloth and dish inside at a few degrees below the atmospheric temperature, and by this means butter can be kept firm in the hottest days.
