EXHIBITING SPACE WILL BE FILLED.

Special Aug Doth: Recent entries
exhibition space in all departments of
the State Fair have accumulated so
rapidly that it is reasonable to expect
the 1912 Exposition will be of NAM
moth proportions. Superint n d n t
Gurney reports that the Horticultural
Department will have more and heavi-
or exhibits than ever before and that
the Horticultural Hall will be crowded
to the limit. The entire north and
south wings will be occupied by county
and private exhibits. The State Col.
lege will occupy the east wing with a
complete display of Hansen's new
plums and other fruits. Professor
Hansen will demonstrate his new fruit
improvements and his recent alfalfa
progress In this wing the College will
also conduct school in the art of
budding and grating fruit trees.
State Fair visitors are urged not to
forget the interesting work of judging
in the various departments Any one
who is fond of good horses and cattle
will be interested in the judging of
these animals. Much is to be learned
by watching experts pick out the fine
points of good COW or horse and more
attention should be paid to this fea-
ture. Superintendent w. s. Hill re
ports that judging will begin at 9
O'Clock Tuesday, September 10Th, and
will continue each forenoon and after.
noon until Thursday evening.

PRESBYTERIAN HOSPITAL PROJECT
WARMLY COMMENDED IN MEETING
and ENCOURAGEMENT GIVEN.

The Commercial club meeting Mon.
day evening greeted the usual faithful
group of workers. The matter of CO.
operating with the committee of the
Presbyterian synod was discussed
earnestly and resolution was passed
endorsing the effort to secure the ereo-
tion of this hospital. The committee
is invited to come back in four weeks
when rousing meeting OF the club
will be called to meet the represents
tive OF the synod and committee was
named to receive them. 1t is likely
that something along the line of ban.
quet will be arranged.
The club showed q feeling of pride in
the fine agricultural exhibit that will
be brought in next Monday. Afte,
this is shown here it will be forwarded
to Huron where tasty exhibit will be
September 8.
The county fair to be held at Chad
ron, the same week will claim a good
representation from Hot Springs and
the Commercial Club will work to that
end, and endeavor to get those who will
not be able to give the time for triI
to Huron. to attend one day at Chad.
ron, and special train will be secured
if the right interest is shown.
The matter OF better county roads
came in for argument and the question
will be put up to the county commits
sioners. Those present felt that this
CITY and community has more to gain
by making good roads which will per
init automobile tourists to visit this
section easily, than by any other effort
or lnducement to the outsider.

ORIGIN or THE MOSQUITO

In ancient times there lived a giant, cruel and blood-thirSty.
 Hispassion was to killmen, drink their blood and eat their hearts. Many men had tried to kill the giant, but were unable to do so. At last, however, a man pretend cd to be dead and laid down on his blanket. The giant came along and saw him Hc felt of the mans flesh and saw that he was sGl, warm. Then he began to gloa,oyer him and say, ' will eat his heartand drink his blood. " So he lifted up the man, who aI- lowed his head to hang down as ifhe were dead. andcarrying him into his shouse, laid him down and then went on some errand. Im- mediateIy the man jumped up ard seized a bow and arrow. Just then the son of the giant camein, andhe hepointed the arrow at the boys head and asked him where his fathers heart was, thrcateniugtokill him if hc did not tell. The boy answered that his fathers heart Was in hi} heel. Jus, then the giant cane in and taeman shot the arrow through his heel Just as the giant was dying, he said: " Though you burn me. lthe o1dway ofdispoing of the dead) Twill still eat you. After the giautwas dead the body was cremated. Then the man in derision took the ashes of the dead giant and threw it to the winds. But each particle of the ashes became a mosquito.

ONE RAILROAD EMPLoYE
KILLED EVERY 2HOURS

KILLED EVERY 2 HOURS
Washington, April S.-Every
six minutes, day and night, a rail-
road employee is killed or injured.
Every two hours one is killed.
This startling statement was
made this afternoon by Senator
Chamberlain, addressing the Sen
ate in behalf of the new employ
ers' liability bill.
These figures are appalling"
he said. mo one can wonder that
employees engaged in all forms of
dangerous work demand change
in the laws, which force the bur-
den of accidents upon the work
ingmen and their families, the
ones least able to bear them.
Nowadays the feeling is aris-
ing that every business should
bear the burden, should pay the
price, of every industrial accident
where human beings are involv-
ed, just as it always has done
when piece of machinery is
broken"
Chamberlain explained that the
new bill required railroad COM
panies to pay employees for loss
of working ability caused by accil
dents suffered in the course of 4
their duties, and to pay the heirs
of those killed while serving the
companies.
The bill also wipes out that ia
Vorite and iniquitous excuse of
employers that accidents are due
to negligence of fellow serv-
ant" or "contributory negli-

Prizes Boost Prices
What the Richfeld Farmers Can
Do to Make a Land Market.

Have you more land than you need--so much
to be burden instead of profit?
Would you like to sell the surplus at higher
price than you have expected to receive for it?
Well---here's way that ought to do it:
Start in Now---Today---to raise some prize crops;
to exhibit first at the Richfeld Day, then at the
County Fair, then at the State Fair, and then let
the state send it Fast on an advertising tour, with
the label .Rchfeld Products always displayed.
This is strictly and solely farm country. No
forests, mines, no mills, no power-nOthing but
farms and farm products. Timber men rush to the
good big forest wherever it is, whatever the price
Miners flock to the mines that show promising ORE
Manufacturers go where power is. And FARM
ERS GO WHERE THERE ARE GOOD FARMS.
A prize exhibit would mean prize crops that pay
good proft-that pay lot better than the
mon crops we're going to raise anyhow. And the
prizes bring fame and profit. What makes North
Yakima, Wenatchee and Hood River lands sell for
$4,000 to $4,000 acre? Why, they Prove what
they produce--and then sell at their price.
You Mr.. Farmer With Too Much Land can help
to make cash market for every acre of land here
