Minnehaha county, of which Sioux
Falls is the county seat was awarded
the first premium for excellence of
its county exhibit at the Corn Palace
this morning by Professor Hume of
the state college at Brookings, the
judge. The honor carries with it
cash prize of $4,000. The second
place was given to Splnk county and
the third to Yankton. The former
gets $100 and the latter SIS. The eX-
hibits were all chosen with care by
Secretary Wheeler from among all
those on exhibit at the state fair at
Huron recently and We're bought
to this city intact 1t is stated that
the exhibits are among the best ever
shown here.
Free Attractions To-day.
Free attractions on the streets were
resumed Immediately following the
dinner hour and the crowds striving
to see them were some of the larg-
est ever seen on the streets here. The
bright sun which came out this NOR
ming quickly dispelled the few re-
naming clouds and the cold of the
day was forgotten in the interest OF
! many features on the streets.
| That yesterdays bad storm only
succeeded in putting temporary
quietus on the event of the carnival
week was evidenced by the fact that
crowds began to come to the city the
| first thing this morning. AS the reg
ular trains from the north and west
| and the specials from the east rolled
litno the station the throngs began to
pour from them reminded the on
ilookers of years past when the at

months. The crowds were met at the
depots by the Trip and Conova
bands and escorted to the city.

the Corn Palace today. The orch

Some one suggested that Smith

grimly:

meaning of that primary was that
bosses cannot rule in New Jersey"
When asked about President Taft's
statement issued today, Wilson de-
clined to reply.

WOMEN'S HATS
None Worn Before the 10th Century. Mere
Headdress at First.

Ladies probably did not begin
to wear hats until about the 10th
century, il SO early, and then it
was the lofty headdress draped
with some material, which it must
have been most trying to keep on
even indoors, and quite impossible
to wear in a wind.
According to the "Anatomy of
Abuses" written in Queen Eliza
beth's time, ladies' hats were very
nearly as perplexing then as they
are. today. "The fashions be rare
and strange, so is the stuff
whereof the hats be made divers
also; for some are of silk, some of
velvet, some of taffettie and some
of wool, and which is more
curious, some of certain kind of
fine haire, these they call beaver
hats, OF XII shillings price, fetch
ed from beyond the seas, from
whence great sort Of other
varietie do come besides"
In the reign of Henry VIII hats
assumed "greate richnesse and
beautie," but in the time of the
first James they became even
more ornate, jewels of price, and
occasionally small mirrors, being
used in their adornment. At times
OF revelry the gallents wore
feathers in their hats, which were
said to be one of the wairest en-
signs of their braverie."
But for adornment mems hats
were in their zenith in the days of
Charles. The big felt hats with
the long feather saucily curling
around them, fastened with
buckle often of great value, gave
a dashing air to the Cavaliers,
which absolutely cast the tall
solemn hats of the Puritans and
psalm singers" into the shade.
The monster hats of the time of
the empire were almost as big as
"The Merry Widow of modern
fame, and in shape they were
positively unique. Mems hats have
suffered great changes since the
time of Charles, and it is more
than doubtful if they will ever
again become ornate. Indeed
save in the very remote parts of
Wales, where the old women still
some of them-wear the high
crowned steeple hat, there is
nothing especially peculiar about
the headgear of the English peas
antry.
The Greeks wore a hat called
petasos, which was soft and light,
being made of felt; it was strap
ped under the chin to fasten it
firmly to the head. But only the
lower classes among the Greeks,
such as herds and travellers, wore
hats, and both sexes wore hats
of the same shape. The Greek
nobility and gentry wore no
covering for the head out Of
doors, and ladies only adorned
their hair with a wreath or flow
ers.
In Rome the same custom pre-
vailed, only we find that slaves
when they received their liberty
at their masters hands wore cone
shaped felt hats, which came to be
the symbol of liberty. After the
death of Nero the citizens of Rome
wore pointed hats to show that
they were relieved from the OPP
preston of a tyrant. Later on,
when the Netherlands threw off
the Spanish yoke, they adopted
hat in the coat of arms of that
nation.-London Globe.

OF INTEREST TO THE BOYS
AND GIRLS

and there it is in that pail.
"Let us look at this poor little
frightened frog" and Aunt
Hester left the room a moment,
returning with a glass bell and a
soup plate. She uncovered the
pail and carefully transferred a
struggling creature TO The covered
dish. 1t was only an inch in size,
slender and delicate. II was "A
light wood brown in color, with
under parts of yellowish white.
Aunt Hester said, "When we
have looked at him long enough
we had better let him go, because
he will only die if kept shut up.
Perhaps we can make him eat,
and that will be interesting. Sup
pose we put him into Mothers
fernery." They did so, and >the
little frog nestled down in a
clump of moss. Phil caught some
small flies and put them inside
the glass. They were alive, and
the frog soon espied them and
became alert in an instant. His
obtruding eyes glittered brightly
while he watched the flies. When
the opportunity came there was a
flash of long, sticky tongue,
and with the help of his two odd
little front feet the fly was eaten.

BRUSH YOUR TEETH.

Teeth should be brushed at least
every morning and before retiring,
rotating the brush up and down as
well as across the surface, so as to
work out any particles that may
become lodged between the teeth.
Also working silk floss between
the teeth is a great prevention
of decay. When a small decay is
noticed, don't delay visit to the
dentist Teeth should be examined
every six months.
For the person that has neg
lected their teeth to an extent
beyond repair and some or all
have to be removed, then seek the
man that can do it without pain
or without taking drugs to pro-
duce unconsciousness.

GROWING POULTRY
FLESH FOR MARKET

The product from poultry of this
kind may be grouped into three
distinct divisions.
1. The growing of poultry es-
pecially for market.
2. Poultry, consisting Of hens
and young male birds that are
sold from farms where the pullets
are kept for egg production.
8. The cocks and old hens sold
as a by-product or after their
usefulness is passed on the egg
farm.
In the third and second class,
we find this stock generally from
the Mediterranean breeds, which
comprise the Leghorns, Minorcas,
Spanish, Andaiuslan, and Anconas,
as these five families are recogniz-
ed as the egg producing fowls.
This stock is not considered as
fattening stock and we must sell
it at price, what we may get.
The large fattening establishments
Of this country do not want this
calss Of poultry, nor do they care
class of poultry from the Polish
family, French, Dutch, or Game
breeds. Then, we have the Asiatic
breeds, the heaviest in flesh Of
the poultry family, and known as
the meat breeds. But this family
has its Objectionable points to our
buyers, and the market does not
call for just this kind of carcass,
and the market demands a clean,
bright, yellow leg, and this family
are the feathered legged
and feet breeds. The English
breeds, which comprise the Dork-
ings, Redcaps, and Orpingtons, are
sod to some buyers and the de-
mand for this class of poultry is
not SO great, and the preferable
class for our markets is from the
American breeds, and this class
is the largest in the poultry fami-
ly, and is known as the general
purpose fowl. The breeds are the
American Dominiques Buckeyes :;
aJvas, Notified and Black; Ply
mouth Rocks, Rhode Island Reds /;
and Wyandottes. The DomiLi-
ques and Javas are a very rare
breed and do not just fill the
market demand, hence are not
popular; therefore we have
brought down the breeds that
seem to be in the biggest demand
as crate fattening and market
poultry to Plymouth Rocks, of
which there are the Barred, White,
Buff, Partridge, and Columbian
Wyandottes, White, Buff, Part
ridge, Silver, Golden, and Column
bian; Rhode Island Reds, Rose
and Single combs.
What the Market Wants.
"Stock, we'll fatted, SO that the
breastbone does not stick out
like the keel to a boat; yellow
meated, square, plump body,
well dressed; clearly picked, not
roughed all up or torn, no pin
feathers left in nor the legs and
feet left dirty"
The above are the demands of
the people of the United States, as
a rule. Then if this is the branch
of the poultry business we have
chosen, and it is the branch that
seems to be more advisable and
profitable for the farmers of our
country to engage in, the next
thought is, What are the demands
of our buyers?

model nevertheless is available for
any seasonable one, for it can be
trimmed with applique or with

four breeds and from twelve To
fifteen varieties. This will certain
