AGRICULTURAL EXHIBITS
FROM FIFTY COUNTIES

Sixty per cent Of the counties of
Minnesota will be represented by ex.
hibits in the agricultural building at
the Minnesota State Fair this fall.
This is the most remarkable show.
ing ever made In Minnesota or in any
other state. II will afford an opportu.
nifty for citizens and prospective citi-
gems to learn the character of the soil
and the crop possibilities Of any par
ticular section of the state in which
they may be interested and OF the
state as a whole.
In order TO house these fifty exhibits
II has been necessary to build a large
addition to the agricultural building
and ever with this added room. It has
been found necessary TO do some very
careful planning.
The county exhibits will all be prop
erly taken care OF. however, and each
county will be given every opportu.
nifty to advertise Its u and to
win the liberal prizes offered by the
fair association.

shook him, saying:

he was turning on the light the tele-
phone bell rang again.

implored. ''They may not wait"
at am hurrying," Wilkinson grum-
bled. IF they don't want to wait, let
'em go to the dickens"
At last he got down into the hall
and took the receiver from the fork.
"Well?" he asked, what is it?"
There was nc immediate reply.
"Hello!" he exclaimed.
Still there was no response.
Then he jiggled the arm a few times
and presently a sweet voice asked:

The Hour of pinina.

London Chronicle: The hour Of din
ing has advanced with the centuries.
Froissart mentions waiting on the
Duke of Lancaster at 5 in the after
noon after he had supped and was
about to go to bed, and the preface
Of the Heptameron shows that the
Queen Of Navarro dined at 10 o'clock
in the morning. From the Northum-
berland household book, dated 1912,
we learn that the ducal family rose
at 6, breakfasted at z, dined at 10, sup
ped at 4, and retired for the night at
8. Louis XIV did not dine till IL,
while his contemporaries, Cromwell
and Charles II, took the meal at /.
In 100 the hour was advanced to 2;
in 1851 we find the Duchess of SOM
erset dining at 8, and in 1850 Cowper
speaks Of 4 o'clock as the fashionable
time. After the battle of Waterloo
the dinner hour was altered to s, from
which time it has advanced by half
hour stages to s. So that in 400 years
the dinner hour has gradually moved
through at least ten hours of the day.
