The State Fair.

Everything is now in readiness for
the opening of North Dakota's greater
fair next Monday. Already many of
the exhibits are being placed on the
grounds, and the equipment of the
several amusements companies IS in
shape for the first performance. Never
before has the state fair grounds pre-
sented more carnival-like appearance
and even at this early date it is evident
from the activity already in evidence
that the 1912 North Dakota State Fair
is going to be greater success than
any ever held in the northwest.
The exhibits are more extensive than
ever before, greater enthusiasm is
manifest among the premium seekers,
farm implement and machinery men
have arranged for more space than
ever before, stock breeders plan the
greatest exhibit in the history of the
state, the speed events will excel all
others ever attempted, the attractions

featuring the aviation meet, the Great
Carver diving horses, the Barkroot
Carnival Company, the Nelsonettes,
worlds greatest aerial troupe; two re.
markable exhibits of fireworks, and q
hundred and one other splendid attrac.
tions.
Not stone has been left unturnec
by the North Dakota State Fair Asso
citation and with the attendances that
is warranted by the class of entertain
ment, the 1912 state fair should be thu
greatest in North Dakota's history
The fair will be open both day an,
evening, and will undoubtedly attrac
many from this vicinity. Every on'

Fargo next week.

RAILROAD MEN SAY MIDLAND
CONTINENTAL is PART
OF THE SYSTEM.
PART OF SYSTEM TO GULF
Route Not Yet Given Out But Officials
Have Decided to Push Building
. OF Road to Handle This
Seasons Crop.

Minneapolis Journal: The Mime
apolis, St. Louis & Canadian Railway
Co., which will build line from the
vicinity of Watertown, S. D., to the
Canadian boundary, was organized in
Minneapolis today by Newman Erb of
New York, president of the Minneap-
OILS & St. Louis road. Vice Pres. w. G.
Bie-d of that company, ]. Wollman of
j. S. Bache & Co., New York bankers,
and H. A. Harrison Of the New York
banking firm, Battle & Co. Incorpora-
tion papers will be filed, Mr.. Erb said,
in the near future. The new construc-
ton, he said, probably will begin this
fall.
Mr.. Erb. with the other eastern fin
ancial men and several secretaries, ar
rived in Minneapolis today, after a
western trip which included run over
the major portion of the Minneapolis
& St. Louis and Iowa Central lines.
Immediately upon his arrival at the
Office of Vice President Bierd, Mr..
Erb put his o. k. on an order for
twelve new locomotives and signed ap-
propIations totaling $5o0,0OO, princi-
pally for track improvement and other
work along the line.
II came west to find by personal
investigation if the condition of the
crops in our territory warrants the
undertaking of extensive new work at
this tlme," Mr.. Erb said. every
where along our lines l found the
crops good, and in some places was
told that the prospects for good yields
have not been better for twenty years.
With this in sight, in such contrast to
the poor crops of last year, we are
prepared to 60 ahead and are today
forming the company to build the new
line. 1t is impossible to give details
yet, or the route of the new line, but
it will be from some point near Water
town northward. =.
1.-THE crop that is now promised
means that equipment and motive
power will be needed to handle it. For
that reason we have just bought
twelve new locomotives. The expen.
ditures that have been authorized at
this meeting amount to considerable.
We are going to keep the property ul
to condition and be ready to handle the
CROP"
Mr.. Erb's announcement is the first
authoritative statement as to the new
route, and today's meeting the first
active move towards getting the con.
struction started. The new road will
give Minneapolis another direct line
into the grain fields of South and
North Dakota, and another connection
with western Canada.
1t is understood that traffic agree
ment with the Canadian Northern is
likely to follow the construction of the
new line, but on this matter Mr.. Erk
was non-committal.

The FIRST GRAY
HAIR SIGN OF AGE
Easy Way to Preserve Natural Color
of the Hair and Make 1t Grow.

A harmless remedy, made from
common garden sage, quickly re-
stores gray hair to natural color The
care of the hair, to prevent 1t from
losing its color and lustre, is just as
important as to care for teeth to
keep them from discooring. Why
spend money for cosmetics and
creams to improve the complexion,
and yet neglect your hair, when gray
hair is even more conspicuous and
suggestive of age than wrinkles or
poor complexion? OF the two, it is
easier to preserve the natural color
and beauty of the hair than 1t is to
have a good complexion.
All that is necessary is the occa-
sional use of Wyeths Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy, a preparation Of
common garden sage and sulphur,
combined with other valuable reme-
dies for dry, harsh, faded hair, dan
druff, itching scalp and falling hair,
After a few applications OF this sim
pie, harmless remedy, your hair will
gradually be restored to its natural
color, in a short time the dandruff
will be removed, and your hair will
no longer come out but will start to
grow as Nature intended it should.
Don't neglect your hair, for 1t goes
further than anything else to make
or mar your good looks. You can
buy this remedy at any drug store
for fifty cents a bottle, and your
druggist will give your money back
If you are not satisfied after using.
Purchase a bottle today. You will
never regret 1t when you realize the
difference It will make in your ap-
pearance. ], c. Perry, Druggist.

STEAMER
VOSBURG
WRECKED
WAS RUNNING on LINE BETWEEN
ASTORIA AND TILLAMOOK AND
STRUCK ON SPIT AT NEHALEM
NO PARTICULARS YET KNOWN.

Portland, Or, May 3.-The George
r. Vosburg, with the barge Nehalem
in tow, went ashore on the north
spit at the Nehalem river bar short
ly before noon today, and, with high
seas dashing over her, lies among the
breakers this afternoon battered
wreck. She appears doomed to be
smashed in two in short time. APP
parently there is no hope of saving
the lives Of her captain or crew.
The little steamer was commanded
by Captain Erickson, well known in
Portland and along the Oregon coast
She carried a crew Of between six
and 10 men. No passengers were
aboard.
The nearest life saving station is
at Tillamook, 20 miles from the point
where the wreck occurred, and 1t is
almost certain the crew from that
point cannot reach the wrecked
steamer in time to save the lives Of
those aboard.
1t is supposed the Vosburg STRUCK
on the Nehalem river bar and thai
Captain Erickson lost control Of hel
before he could prevent her being
driven on the beach.
The Vosburg had been engaged II
the lumber trade, carrying for the
Wheeler Lumber company. She pliet
between Wheeler, on the Nehalen
river, and Astoria, Portland and 9th
er northern Oregon ports.
The Vosburg was inward bounC
when she struck.

.CASCARETS CURE A
BILIOUS HEADACHE
Gently but thoroughly cleanse your
Liver, Stomach and Bowels and
you feel great by morning.

You're bilious, you have throb-
bing sensation in your head, a bad
taste in your mouth, your eyes burn
your skin is yellow, with dark rings
under your eyes; your lips are
parched. No wonder you feel ugly
mean and i'll tempered. Your system
is full of bile not properly passed
off, and what you neeu IS a cleaning
up inside. Don't continue being a
bilious nuisance to yourself and
those who love you, and don't resort
to harsh physics that irritate and in
jure. Remember that every disorder
of the stomach, liver and intestines
can be quickly cured by morning
with gentle, thorough Cascarets-
they work while you sleep. A 10
cent box from your druggist will
keep you and the entire family feel
ing good for months Children love
to take Cascarets, because they taste
good and never grippe or sicken.
