First Of all, the walls were tinted a

BEWARE OF rIoHTwAp.

At the close Of big Pennsylvania
fair last year. where the poultry en-
try was nearly 10000 and 100000
visitors by actual count viewed the
poultry exhibit, a reporter asked a
poultry Judge why the poultry end at
that fair was such a success, while
at fair a short distance away the
poultry exhibit was such a fzzle.
Tightwad,' said the judge. AT this
fair they house. feed and coop the
birds free, offer big cash prizes and
$1,000 worth Of silver cups and treat
the fanciers like kings. At the other
fair they are too stingy even to feed
the chickens"
