The new remedy for indiges-

THE GREATEST EXHIBIT OF ALL
LINES EVER S. OWN IN THE
NORTHWEST.
EVERYBODY IS TO SuoW
Mere People Have Secured Space fsr
Week Of July % Than Ever D..
fsrs Exhibited at State Fair
ns Educational Display.

The management of the North Da.
kotA state fair which will be held in
FASGo for the week beginning July %,
has used it's best endeavsr to get away
from the stereotyped fora Of amuse-
ment, and to make tho fair what it Ia
really intended to be, educational as
well as pleasing.
One of the matters in which the
farmer is always interested is that OF
machinery. He is continually looking
fer the best and newest creations from
the minds of the inventors.
With this idea in view the fair peo-
PIE worked diligently in securing farm
machinery houses as exhibitors.
Sec. Frank 8. Talcott is pleased to
30 able to say that for the coming fair
this department is larger and better
than ever. 1t is only necessary to
state that at the present time four
weeks ahead Of the fair there is more
space reserved by the machine houses
than was ever occupied by them dur
mg the actual fair time.
There will be everything shown that
y new and labor saving. The Union
Light, Heat and Power CO. has been
secured to furnish power for running
each article of machinery and demon
strations will be made hourly of all of
Il.
It Is the hope Of tho management
Of the fair that the farmers of the
state will find this to be one of the
greatest exhibits of machinery ever
shown in the northwest, not even ex-
cepting the state fair Of Minnesota.
tn oil oft
city an inquiry will reveal the fact
that each one is busily engaged at this
day in preparing it's particular exhibit
fer machinery hall and the space that
will be devoted to this part Of the
great exhibition.
Al this department is open to the
whole world it may be expected that
many will compete who have never
done so before.
Huge platforms have been erected to
accommodate the different exhibitors,
spaces have been divided off, and each
house will have a corps of attaches
who VIII take pleasure in showing and
explaining every detail of machinery
that will be shown.
4here are new patents granted each
year for farm machinery, and it is
stated by the superintendent of this
department that some of the machin-
cry that will be shown will be shipped
here directly from the east and for tho
nrst time shown at state fair in
Farxo. Much Of this exhibit will be
taken to, the state fair at Minnesota
next fall, and Fargo is likely to Be the
only place outside of Minnesota at
which it will be exhibited.

from the Ed Nelson farm a few miles
east of the city. Four of the orig
NAL members are still affiliated with
the aid, including Mrs. Eric Ramstal,
who was the first secretary.
Appropriate services have been ar
ranged for next Sunday in connection
with the observance of the anniver-
sary. Rev. T. F. Gullixon will
preach in the Norwegian language
at IL O'Clock in the forenoon at the
Nelson farm, just across the river
from where the old log cabin in which
the Aid was organized still stands.
In the afternoon the pastor will
preach in English. A bountiful pic
mic dinner will be served about nooa
and the day promises to be one of
the happiest in the annals Of church
and society.

BOOST FOR THE STATE FAIR.
The State Fair This Year Promises ia
Be the Biggest and Best in the
History Of the Agricultural
Association.

As each year POLLS around and the
time draws nearer, the general eye Of
the public is turned toward the state
fair. Start the ball of cooperation
rolling and raise the booster banner
and let us have one of the largest and
most representative state fairs ever
seen in the northwest.
The splendid crop conditions this
year warrant the farmer in having a
regular 'Hoosier pumpkin Dream"
when it takes a stick Of dynamite to
break the pumpkin from the stem be-
fore the four hoaee team can haul it to
market. If present weather condi-
lions continue North Dakota will have
a bumper crop and, with the cooper
alton and assistance of our farmers,
the state fair will have the largest ag-
ricultural display ever exhibited in the
state.
The agricultural departing. is the
most representative and interesting to
our people along educational lines.
Farmers, will you spend an evening OR
two selecting samples from your
growing crops and exhibit then at the
state fair? The state fair is your fair.
If only few of the many who read
this article will send in specimens OF
their growing crops, what magnif-
cent display we will have of the prod
ucts Of the state.
Write for premium list which will
tell you the amount Of the return Of
fered in dollars and cents for your
trouble in making an exhibit, to which
competition will add the additional
value Of learning the worth of your
efforts in what you produce
The judges in the agricultural de-
partment are experts in their respec-
tive lines and will tell you why your
exhibit wins or loses. If you are not
successful in winning a premium, is it
not worth the time and expense to
learn how ga that you will next year
raise the best products and increase
your profits.
The state fair is an educational
school and can help ysu, and will, by
actual demonstrations, and lectures
upon agricultural subjects, breeding of
livestock, and farm machinery. Come
AID see and hear and learn.

some time ago to equip this depart

give the boys a wider range. Part Of
the equipment will consist of twelve
new, up, to date wood lathes OF the

will think, but the call for the lathe
