BIRD MEN AT The STATE FAIR

BIRD MEN AT The STATE FAX
Curtiss Flyers Will Soar Every Day Dur.
ing Week....Aeroplane VS..
Automobile
The greatest aviation meet in
the west will be featured at the
coming South Dakota State Fair.
The Curtiss flyers have been Sc
cured at great price and will soar
high above the grounds every day
during the Fair. The manage
ment is making a great effort to
secure the famous Lincoln Beechy,
whose recent flight over Niagara
Falls was the sensation of the
year. Beechy is one of the most
daring bird men in the world-he
flies over mountains and anywhere,
high in the air, beyond the sight
of man.
The Curtiss people have inspect
ed the grounds and estimate that
nothing should hinder them from
making record breaking flights
and this they I planning to do.
For real daring and sensational in.
%terest, nothing can compete with
this feature.
Nothing is too good or too ex-
pensive for South Dakata, and the
very fact that this feature will be
presented at our Fair places the
South Dakota fair among the few
great expositions at the top of the
list. The great reputation of the
Curtiss flyers limits their opera
tions to the greatest fairs only.
On Monday, the first day of
the fair, there will be an exciting
race between the aeroplane and
an automobile. No one can afford
to miss this contest between land
and air locomotion. The educa-
tional value of this aviation meet
can not be oyerestimated, and not
to see it is to sustain a tremen-
dous loss.
1t is getting to be a common oc
currence for long distance tour
lists to pass through Forest

The crowd in the little country store

Witherspoon remarked that he'd seen
It rain about as hard as anybody ever
had seen It rain. Somebody said:
deacon, how hard did you ever see
It rain?"
"Well, SIR" said the deacon, "once
upon time, when l was at home, wo
had m old cider barrel laying out in
the yard with both ends out and the
bunghole up. and. would you believe it,
It rained so hard into that bunghole
that water couldn't run out of both
ends fast enough, and it swelled up
and busted!'
Then Reuben Henry spoke up. he
said he'd never seen 1t rain very hard,
but he'd seen some mighty cold wealth
er. Somebody said, "Rube, how cold
did you ever see 1t get?"
He said, well, sir, one time when ]

An active campaign for the improve
ment of farm eggs in the middle west
was undertaken last summer by the
bureau of animal industry of the Unit
ed States department of agriculture.
This work was preceded by general
survey Of the field in the spring Of
1908, which showed that an enormous
loss was being sustained annually as
the result of spoiled and deteriorated
eggs. This loss results from the ig-
norance, carelessness, or Indifference
of the farmer and from the dilatory
and unsatisfactory methods of mark
citing in vogue. The actual money
loss is suffered mainly by the farmer,
while the loss quality is borne by
the consumer. A report of this pre-
liminary investigation was published
as Circular 40 of the Bureau of AMI
NAL Industry.
The campaign of the past summer
had for its ultimate end the improve
ment of conditions surrounding the
handling and marketing of eggs, and
consequently the improvement Of the
quality of the egg itself as 1t reaches
the consumer. Coincident with such
improvement there will be a saving
to the farmer of great part of the
money loss at present sustained.
The efforts have so far been direct
ed mainly to education in better meth
DDS, cooperation with egg buyers and
state authorities, and experimental
ton. The actual work has been done
mostly in the state Of Kansas. The
educational work has been done by
department field men going among the
farmers and impressing upon them
the necessity Of keeping eggs intended

IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF EGGS

for market in cool, dry place and of
marketing them frequently. Incident
ally they have given the farmers help
whenever possible in the practical
management and breeding Of poultry,
and have urged the keeping of pure
bred poultry.
The bureau sought and obtained the
cooperation Of the egg buyers of Kan
sas, and as result the "loss-off' or
quality system of buying was brought
into use. BY this system the bad eggs
are rejected and only the good eggs
paid for. There is no measure which
has such definite and far-reaching
influence for the improvement of the
commercial egg than the general adop-
ton Of this system of buying and sell
ing. The state food authorities also
cooperated by prosecuting under ex-
listing state law cases where bad eggs
were sold. On account of the mater
ial improvement effected in the Kan
sas eggs, the movement has spread to
adjacent states, and efforts are being
made to secure uniform legislation in
many of these states so as to estab.
lish the loss-off system of buying at
least during the hot months.
In the work of investigating various
lots Of eggs were traced from the time
they were produced on the farm until
they reached the packing house, in
order to determine the factors caus.
ing deterioration and to study how
conditions of handling and shipment
may be improved.
The results thus far have been SO
satisfactory that it is proposed to con-
tinue the work in Kansas in about the
same manner during the coming sum-
mer.

new Theory OF
the BAD LANDS
~ ~ u ~ UVSu8N

=. Oakdale, Mar.1.-A short time ago
Judge Bpgbee and A. A. Liederbach
took trip In to the bad lands to the
Wilcox ranch. About half a mile south
of Mr.. Wilcox's ranch on the road out
is q, burning coal mine that has been
on fire since any white mans knoWl-
edge of this country. Four years ago
wea first saw it, then the road went
around to the western edge of it but
now it has burned up the road and
quite a distance beyond, so a new
passageway hal to be made. We are
now prepared to corroborate the
theory as to what manner of things
created the bad lands. The earth on
top of the coal has fallen to a depth
of the vein of coal underneath. The
scoria' Is there resembling terricato
and burned clay and all other forma-
tons ar there resembling the bad
