$4,000 IN CASH
WITHOUT AN OWNER.
That Amount Is Lost Every Year
In Spokane.

Sounds like fairy story to hear OF
$4,000 OF more in real cash and no
further away than Spokane being lost
every year just because no one claims
1t, and any Inland Empire rancher
could have share of 1t without much
trouble or expense. In fact. the rail
roads are willing to help any one try
for this money. and there Is book
printed each year Just 10 tell all the
particulars aud t1e easiest way to get
in on this BIT. in spite of everything.
this money is left homeless year after
year. Nobody can figure out the rea
son for this Perhaps the public don't
believe that the money is good. or
maybe they think 1t is like the April
purses with "A stout cord attached
but. as a matter of fact. the money is
real. and TO strings of any kind are
fastened To it,
All this refers to the Spokane Fair
and the money it gives away each
year in prizes. The 1912 premium
list was issued May / ANY one can
have copy for nothing by writing
the secretary of the Fair. There are
more than $4,000 worth OF prizes list
ed In this book. on which competition
is open to the world. and yet every
year only one half to two thirds OF
these prizes are contested for or claim
ed simply because the Inland Empire
rancherS and citizens don't take the
pains 90 send in entries.
However IN increasing number
each Aear do compete Since 1904 the
ent 1es nave risen from 1881 to 1904
last year and the Spokane Fair people
anticipate keen competition this year
IN nearly every department One OF
the most interesting will be the old
time county and district display
prizes. for which S2.25O has been ap-
propriated This contest used to be
the feature of the famous old fruit
fairs and ought still TO make a hit
now that there are so many new pro
ducing districts.
The railroads are doing everything
possible to hep the Spokane Fair and
are not only making very low passen
ger rates for Fair week. Sept. 30 TO
oct. 6. but also special freight and ex.
press rates or exhibits Complete in
formation about rates may be obtain
ed from any railroad agent or the SCI

UNIQUE CONTESTS
AT SPOKANE FAIR.
All Sorts Of Competitive Tests
Have Been Planned.

Any kind OF a genuine contest. from
foot race to an aeroplane race. is al
ways interesting. and the Spokane Fair
management. approaching this. have
arranged for all sorts OF competitive
stunts to be pulled off during Interstate
Fair week. Sept. 30 to Oct. g OF
course the horse races are the main
events. and SIT 800 is offered In purses
for the horsemen, but the amateur fire.
mems tournament, the miners rock
drilling contest and the lumbermen's
log chopping contest will be sure
enough exciting.
A long list OF prizes has been ar
ranged for the firemen. Any town can
enter q team, and many of the Inland
Empire cities have agreed to have their
best men there. Five hundred dollars
is given for a two hand rock drilling
exhibition. anc the best men from the
Occur d Alenes, from Butte. from the
boundary country and even from Ne
vada are expected. 1t Is Il real novelty
to see these men, trained athletes all.

into solid granite in fifteen minutes.
hitting ulAN " sixty SllOhCS Ahihube
and changing the long steels without
losing a stroke
The log chopping is a new idea, but
the woodsmen who have it In charge
are sure it will be as exciting as any
. of the other features. and there should
be plenty of good choppers in the In
land Empire who will take a chance to
win tho Co5O offarad
Races at night by the light OF the
mammoth searchlights are another fea
ture. tried first in 1911 with great sue
cess and to be repeated this year. The
night chariot races are especially ex
citing, as the chariots are covered will
fireworks, which serve the double pur
pose of lighting the race and exciting
the four horses which draw each We
hicle.
And another contest, perhaps not a
exciting. but surely of more practica
good. is the milk test, in which man.
of the prize milk cows of the north
west will contend. Full particular
\ concerning all these contests may b
had by addressing Robert II. Cosgrov'
secretary of the Spokane Fair.
