MISSOURI SLOPE FAIR
fine Advertisement
MORE ATTENTION TO BE PAID TO
AGRICULTURE AND STOCK
RAISING.
Expects to BE Biggest Of All State
Fairs~Great Variety Of States Re
sources to Be Exhibited.

The Missouri Slope fair to be held
at Mandan, September IL to Is, is one
of North Dakota's greatest advertis-
ing assets. 1t is North Dakota's mir
ror. In a days time the fair visitor
can gain a good idea of what North
Dakota is. What she produces and
what she may become. The prospec.
tive settled and investor can gain
more information from a days visit
to this fair than from weeks of travel
or months spent in correspondence
and tue. study of statistics. This, the
biggest of all the state fairs, furnishes
composite picture of the states re-
sources. 1t gives an opportunity to
one interested of studying the states
geography, topography, soil, climate
productiveness and industries. Its
live exhibitions are concrete examples
of the variety and quality Of what the
state can produce and the locality in
which each article can be best pro
duced.
The great slope fair of 1911 will be
more than ever a course in agricul-
ture, stock raising, manufacturing and
industries which is worth while. The
secretary, officers and directors of the
Missouri slope fair are working to
make next September's exposition not
only the greatest, in point of size and
but the greatest and in
trinsic educational value, and the
greatest as an advertisement of this
great slope country. The Missouri
Slope fair-is the only self-supporting
in the state and thus with
practically no expense to the taxpayer.
This institution is carrying on the
work of making North Dakota first
in everything. The advertising her
greatness to the world and affords the
place where thousands of
people annually gather to be enter
tanned and to learn the best methods
and achievements in every line and
endeavor, and more than anything
else to elarp facts about western
North Dakota. Q

The Rotation Of Plants.


Geraniums will grow In any soil, but
must have only moderate amount Of
manure and not too much water. Pan
sizes like the richest kind Of light.
loamy soil. Most shrubs like a moder-
ately rich soil. with yearly applications
Of manure on the surface over the
roots. Cannas like the richest possible
kind of soil. with abundance Of water
after they start to grow.
For some reason which cannot be
fully explained some plants will not do
we'll two years in succession in the
same place. Especially is this true OF
asters and sweet peas. 1t is more or
less true Of all plants. That b why
the farmer rotates his crops and why
the gardener should meyer. If she can
avoid it. plant the same variety in the
same place oftener than once In three
years

in selecting plants which will with

conditions may be remedied by much
spraying and dampening. Spread out
cloths to protect the door and spray the
plants frequently. II there Il insult

which will endure the shade.
Do not make the mistake Of using

use of the Badger state range by the
adjutant general of Wisconsin. There
are several reasons why this is ac-
cepted. First, the conditions are ideal
there. There are four times as many
targets as here, SO that much more

Politics in Kentucky.

Mr.. Thomas M. Gilmore, President
of the Model License League, in an
ARTICLE in Bonfor's Wine and Sirit
Circular, a periodical devoted to the a
quor trade, has the following to say
on the political situation in Kentucky
The article is Interesting as showing
the attitude of the liquor people to-
wards Judge O'Rear. 1t was written
several weeks ago, after the Repub-
lican convention and before the Demo-
cratic convention. Mr.. Gilmone writes
as follows:
"The political situation in this
State is not very encouraging just
at present for the liquor trade. The
Republicans have nominated Judge
O'Rear for Governor, by exclamation,
and have adopted a platform that call
for the extension of the county unit
bill, and that is otherwise a progress
i've declaration that will win votes
Judge O'Rear is strong man, of unu
sual ability as am organizer and cam
paigner, and he viii be a hard man
to beat That O'Rear is in flavor OF
Statewide prohibition is ibayond ques-
ton, we think, but he is too shrewd
politician to proclaim such a doc
trine at present. The plan of the
Anti Saloon League, which dictate
O'Rear's nomination, is TO extend the
county unit bill so as to outlaw the
liquor business ii possible, in such
cities as Greensboro, Henderson, Pa
ducah, Hopkinsville, Paris, Frank
fort, Winchester, Lexington, and the
like, and If this be accomplished, then
carry the public sentiment to a
pitch of excitement that will demand
Statewide prohibition. On the DJmo-
cratic side there is as yet much I'M
certainty, as no platform has been
adopted SO far. and Ex-Governor Me-
CreaTy is silent on all matters per-
tanning 10 the liquor traffic. II may
be that the Democrats will oppose any
extension of county unit, through
many members OF the party declare
that such course would be suicidal
Certainly the trade should urge tbs
Democrats TO take this course and
let this QUESTION come to the FROM
and be settled for good and al, To
extend the county up'. in xentuck,
would be almost equiv. snt to State
