Notable New Educational Feat,.tss a,
the Spokane Fair.

Notable New Educational Feates.sss a,
the Spokane Fair. p
Successful fairs now pay far more
attention to securing new educational
features than was the custom a few
years ago. While the amusements are
not neglected and there is always some
thing going on to entertain every pa
tron. education is really the star fea-
tcfc, and nowhere else can an inquir-
liz visitor learn SO much about the
greet !a'and Empire and the general
ne&res OF art and agriculture.
Tie spokane Fair this year proposes
rot only to provide this free educa-
ton. Tut is going to bring thirty farm
lo.s to the Fair to enjoy week of
fun ID learning combined at the Fairs
"a. lse. The Washington State col
H. VIII look after the boys and will
also install a comprehensive exhibit
Showing the work done Mt the college.
The Idaho university and the Spokane
schools will also have complete exhib-
Its, and liberal prizes have been offered
for rural school exhibits.
Two other very practical features
along this same line are a model
creamery, which will operate daily, and
milk test open to all cows. grade or
pure bred, all testing to be done In an
open booth and fully explained.
The Spokane Fair management want
to make the week of Sept. 80 notable
IN every way and guarantee that every
one who attends the Fair can, II they
will, learn something about the line of
agricultural science which most inter-
eSts them.

A young beaver In Regents Park

work upon tree twelve feet long and
two feet six inches thick, just as the
town clock sounded the hour of noon.
The beaver began by barking the tree
a foot above the ground
That done he attacked the wood.
He worked hard. alternating his labor
with dips in his bathing pond. He
bathed and labored alternately until
four o'clock in the afternoon. when he
ate his supper of bread and carrots
and padded about in his pond until
$50 O'Clock.
Ten minutes later. when only one
inch of the trees diameter remained
intact. he bore upon his work and tho

He worked at intervals all night
cut the log into three parts. rolled two
of the portions into the water and re-
served the other third for his perma
