stock classes. Many new classes
have been formed to accommodate
the new types and breeds now own
ed in the West. A few years ago
only two or three breeds of Cattle
would be represented, now nearly
all breeds find a place in the ring.
In no line has the improvement
been more marked than in that
of horses shown and many of them
home grown. The fair has been a
mighty factor in building up and
improving the breeds of horses.
After seeing fine type of animal or
plant the old commonplace never
seems quite so attractive as before.
and thus we are spurred on to great
er achievements.

Pure Seed

Too much stress cannot be placed
on the importance of bending every
energy in destroying the weed crop
reduce the danger from the weed
seed which is serious menace to
the pure seed industry of the state.
1t is well known that our clover and
grasses produce bountiful crops of
seed which has become an impor-
tant farm production in many sec
tons of Idaho and the west. Many
eastern dealers are looking to the
west for their supplies, and it be-
hooves every farmer to do all in
his power to stimulate his indus
try. Wild oats, sweet clover and
dodder are serious pest, and espe-
cially the last named in the list, as
affecting the clover and alfalfa seed
industry. Dodder is propogated by
oCCQ lllC odillC do OlllCl Pldlllos dIlQ
it can be destroyed before it pro-
duces seed the weed will be disposed
of. Its ravages are not confined to
clover and alfalfa as many seem to
think for it is often found on other
plants such as the potato and many
other wild plants. Another weed
which should receive attention in
fields is the plantain, both the mar
row leaved and the broad leaved
variety. The field should be plow-
ed up where the plantain gets hold
and other crops grown for number
of years before returning to clover.
The seed of this pest can be more
easily detected than of some other
weeds, which makes it possible to
prevent its introduction. -

GOOD WORDS

The district fair which was held in
Kendrick last Saturday attracted a
large crowd, which was estimated
between five and six hundred people,
to that city. There were in to the
neighborhood of three hundred ex-
hibits consisting of grasses, grain,
vegetables, fruit, ETC., and the fair
was a much greater success than
was anticipated. Kendrick has a
Commercial Club that is undoubtly
second to none in the state consider
ing the size of the place. The or
ganization selected ]. F. Brown to
prepare the exhibits. and that they
will again win the cup for the best
district exhibit at the county fair
is no question. This exhibit should
take the sweepstakes for the Spokane
fair. 1t alone is we'll worth trip tc
the county fair to see. THERE'S over

due Mr.. Brown for the manner ir

1ne county. falr is over at MOS
cow and now the Interstate Fair at
Spokane is the topic of the day. At
the county fair every thing went off
in fine shape and the crowds leach
day increased up to the last and dur
ing the week thousands of people
had visited the best exhibit of live
stock and farm products that was
ever gotten together in one place.
The weather for the fair week was
ideal and the grounds were in iirst
class condition and in fact nothing
could have been better had the
doctor ordered it. The fair.promot-
ers spent a lot of money building
new buildings and new grandstand
also the race course was built up
above the standard. The races dur
ing the fair were beyond expectation.
The exhibits from over the county
were fine, showing UP the products
from the different sections, and in this
county this means more than in most
places, as this country is cut up by
nature in the way of canyons and
mountains that the climatic condi-
tons are far different in the different
parts thus giving one part advantage
over the others. In the exhibit
building upon entering you first saw
the Genesee exhibit which is worthy
of mention, having splendid exhibits
of grains and vegetables, next came
the Deary exhibit showing some
good productions. In the third ex-
hibit came, the one, the Kendrick
exhibit which in size was three times
larger than any thing on the grounds.
This exhibit had the distinction of
holding on it's shelf the silver cup
won last year for the best district
display and after the judging was
over the cup still remained with an
other blue ribbon tied to it giving it
back to the Kendrick vicinity forever
because it won two years in success
sion. 1t was pleasure to stand in
this booth and hear the comments
from the public as they entered and
made remarks of praise for the dis
play. After this display you came
to the Troy display which was small
but good. Across the room was
the art exhibit and the domestic
science department which at
tracted much attention on account
of the beautiful works Of art and
different stunts of domestic science.
The second building you then enter
ed, which was crowded with indivi.
dual exhibits, which were gathered
from all over the county. In thi:
most beautiful display of grains,
fruits and vegetables, you could SET
blue ribbons tied to large number
of displays from the Potlatch coun.
try which made every body from
here feel as though they lived in the
most productive spot on earth
During the visit in Moscow you coulo
hear all over the fair grounds and OF
the streets up town, Oh! was mt tina
a grand display from Kendrick
The publicity that the country sur
rounding Kendrick will receive from
this display, that is now in Spokane
can never be forgotten. The amour
of good it will do for the countr,
can never be known as the benefi
will not come all in one day, but fol
the time to come people seeing ant
reading about it will be eventual,

Many girls are winter brides.
1t is safe to say that a great num-
Der are planning now for the
happy day and date. Styles
change SO quickly the wise girl
will content herself with a
SMALL TROUSSEAU. Decide,
first, on the wedding gown, as Il
Is probably the most expensive
item in the outfit. But leave the
making of it till toward the last.
Whether this dress shall be of
satin, silk lace or some less ex-
pensive material depends on
many things and, therefore, must
be left very largely to the indi-
vidual to decide. Still 1t should be
of something soft and clinging-
something that will drape we'll.
1t should be made in a style that
allows it to be of service for for
NAL and informal affairs after
wards. So make the train, IL you
have one, separately. Whatever
the material of the dress. the
train should be of satin and lined
with chiffon.
An afternoon gown can be
made of silk wolfe over a silk OF
contrasting color.
If most of the sewing is done
at home, it Is the best plan to buy
the tailor-made suit.
A pretty house dress made on
the order of a negligee, but suit
able to receive any friend who
may call, may be made of silk,
challis or other light, dainty ma
-terial. Some cambria house
dresses, preferably one-piece
style; several working aprons. a
wrapper; at least two biouses for
the tailored suit; a long, separate
coat and the necessary hats,
shoes, neckwear, gloves. ETC.,
which always must be remem-
bered, will just about complete
the essentials.

to make for themselves. 1t Is a.
pleasure and is sure to contain
much better material and work.

Read What The Stars Say
About Baby Elizabeth

1t will never be said of this
little girl a few years hence that
she has not good taste, for the
stars have said her greatest de-
sire will be to dress well, keep
herself beautiful and to make her
home a place of loveliness as well
as comfort.
She will be a lover of books,
but a fine sense of what is liter
airy will keep her wide of printed
trash and her reading will be
purely to fulfill her artistic tastes.
She may even go so far as to
write works of her own.
Elegance in appearance and a
love of money for moneys sake
will dominate her nature through
out her life. She will be given
much to talk, but her conversa-
ton will be clever and interesting.
She will demand much attention
and petting from the man she
marries.

IL A PHYSICIAN.

With the plague knocking on
many sides for admittance to the
country, the ancient, if not espe-
cially honored profession of the
rat-cateher may come into vogue,
at least until science and inven-
ton have solved the problem of
eliminating the rat altogether.
In the congested and insani-
tary cities of centuries ago, it is
easy to imagine the utility of
such a functionary.
The profession still exists in
most of our larger cities, it's rep
resentatives-a sort of non
criminal member of the under
world-claiming special skill or
mysterious professional secrets in
his way of working.
1t is not to be doubted that
such individuals are better ac-
quainted than the rest of the
community with the ways of the
p%estilent rodents, and the success
of some has passed into tradition
as little short of marvellous.
The usefulness of the profess
sion should make it more re-
spectacle at the time than it has
been considered in the past.
Catching the rat, to be sure,
like swatting the fly, is a lame
and unsatisfactory expedient,
compared with building and
starving both out of existence.
But so long as such an an
achronism as the rat exists there
is no inconsistency in fighting it
with a medieval institution like
the rat-catcher.

"a SAILORS


Dear Miss Grey: sailors
Daughter" let me shake
hands with you! 1 am "a
Norwegian girl, born close
by the sea and brought up
TO love it and l am a sail
or's wife-to-be.
1 agree with you i'm every
thing you say about the
sailors! l am a woman and
have seen a great deal of the
world and have met all KINDS
of men. My sailor is not the
only man i have had q
chance to marry; but he is
the only one l ever answered
Eyes" Why? Because lie
is the best, nObicst and the

fiavt. ever met. | know what
l am talking about, for I
have known him for years. l
have always been very scri-
ours, have always led a pure
life and always respected "a

tainly would not choose any
other. He loves the sea, and
so do I, and L would not
have him do any OTHER kind
of work.
The sailors are lonely, hav-
ing no homes. My friend
says the SALOONS are the only
places where they + always
welcome. That is the reu-
son SO many of them drink.
Why don't people, who
have means, furnish good,

In the same manner as before,
they should work over the hair
roots with light and deep massage
until the finger tips meet at the
center at the top.
Third movement-The fingers
of each hand are placed so as to
meet at the back of the neck
where the hair begins, and, de-
scribing the same motions as be-
fore, they work themselves up
ward to the center.
In this manner the entire scalp,
in less than five minutes, receives
a thorough stimulation. The hair
responds at once and will be found
full of life and electricity, where
before it was lifeless and dull. 1t
will also make the whole head
fee lighter and better. 1t will
keep the scalp healthy and pre-
vent the hair from mailing.
If you will send me a self-ad-
dressed envelope in are of this
paper | will send you the recipe
for a. splendid hair tonic. Be sure
that you dress your hair becom-
ingly, and the simpler you dress
il the better. There is nothing
SO hideous as a lot of false puffs
and braids on the head of a pref
ty girl who would look stunning
if she would only wear her own
"glory crown" put up in a fash
ion that suited her.
.
JUST ONE LAST WORD
keep your hair clean and
fluffy. Brush it until it
blooms and it won't make
any difference if you do not
comb it in the latest fashion
if the way you dress it is be-
coming.

Some poet has rhapsodized over
his sweetheart's hair, declaring
that she might draw him to her
with a single strand. He was
probably taking some poetical IL
cense, but the fact remains that
all literature is full of references
to the hair of women.
An actress has to be particu-
1arly careful of her hair, as tho
powder that gets into it and the
many ways she must often wear
it, often in a single evening, are
very hard on it. But the act.
resses with fine hair are always
very proud of it.
There is nothing SO good for
the hair as massage, and l am
going to tell you how 1 massage
mine. Before dressing the hair
and when taking it down at night,
loosen it by giving the ends two
or three light shakes; place the
tips of the fingers of both hands
at the juncture of the hair and
the forehead and then work them
with a circular motion gently but
firmly toward an imaginary CEN
ter at the top of the head. At
each turn of the fingers, let them
work lightly OIL the surface, and
then deeply, the first motion is for
the hair follicles themselves, the
next for moving the scalp on the
head SO as to make it soft, yield
ing and flexible.
Second movement-Place the
tips of the fingers so that the fore
finger of each hand will meet at
the spot where the last massage
left off. This will bring the fing-
ers of each hand over an ear at
the juncture of the hair and skin.

BEAUTY OF FACE FADES
IF NOT BACKED BY
BEAUTY OF MIND

Dear Miss Grey: We are
two very beautiful girls Of
10 years. We go to high
school. All the boys tell us
how pretty we are getting.
Is it right for them to tell
us, although we like to be
told?
They all want to go with
us. We are quite popular.
We go to all the parties in
town. When they take us
they always insult us in some
way. Thanking you very
much for your advice, and
we will follow it closely.
TWO GIRLS.
A.--Mere beauty is of littI
value, and If you do not cultivat,
your mind the outward appear
ance will change, and you will
have absolutely nothing on whicl
to rely.
Boys who are always tellinl
you of your loneliness are dom,
because they see that you ar,
foolish enough to be flattered
and they a S your weakness
to their\advantage. You will Ger
tainly Teret it if you have any
thing IL 10 with them.
1t is lrjach better to be a littl,
reserved than to gain popularit.
by furnishing your modesty.
