MARKET DAY AND FAIR
WAS A GRAND SUCCESS
People Surprised at Products Grown in
Their Own Vicinity Many Visit
ors Here.

The Fair last Saturday of which is
the beginning of the annual affair
was one of great success. Early
in the morning people began to ar
rive in this little city in the canyon
and before the day passed away
several hundred people had taken in
the fair and visited the market day
sale. The exhibit rooms under the
supervision of ]. F. Brown we're
beautifully decorated and the exhibit
of all kinds of grains, fruit, grasses
and vegetables were to be seen. In
round numbers there was over four
hundred different samples on dis
play. The farmers all expressed
themselves that this exhibit was
credit to the country and to the men
who had gotten it up. To much
credit cannot be given Mr.. Brown
for the manner in which he arranged
the display and the work he did in
preparing the grains. This man
worked faithful for the past two
months, each bundle of grain he has
taken each straw one by one and
stripped it of the blades and then
carefully placed them in place max
ing one Of the best showings for
grain that was ever gotten up in this
country. Travelling men from over
the country who visited the fair,
stated that they had visited other
places where they had displays and
this was the best they had the pleas
ure of seeing. The farmers are to
be complimented in the way they
took hold and delivered their exhibit
produce to the Club, thus making it
possible for them to get the best
and largest varieties. The people
not only tributary to this place but
to Juliaetta have been great help in
making this show one of the best ever
held in a small town. The Judges
of the fair were; A. B. Washburn,
of Chicago, representative of The
Whitaker Manufacturing Co., c. G.
Guy. of Enid Oklahoma, A. c.
Williamson, of Spokane, represen-
tative of the International Harvester
Co. These gentlemen were very
much surprised when they began to
examine the display at the quality
and size of the produce. The fol-
lowing are those winning prizes: M.
B. Lewis, Kendrick, best ten ears of
corn: H. Zumhoff, Juliaetta, best
peck of barley; ]. M. Emmett,

Frank Waite, of Cedar Creek,
was visitor in this city Wednes-
day and from here he went to Spo-
kane where he will visit for short
time. Mr.. Waite is somewhat of an
timer in this locality coming to the
Big Potlatch in 1868 and after one
year he went to Cedar Creek comun-
ity where he took up homestead
has made that his home since that
time. He has seen this country
grow from a wilderness into almost
a solid field of beautiful grain.
A. A. Dobson, of Agatha, was in
this city Wednesday, while here he
subscribed for the Gazette. He said
it had come to pass that it was i'm
possible to get along without the pa
per any longer. He didn't have the
dollar but said he would roll it over
the hill when he got home, SO we
took his word for it.
Chas. McKeever, of the Lincoln
McCrea Hardware Co. left for some
where Wednesday morning, and
when the reporter asked where he
was going he said he didn't know,
so we think it advisable to have a
body guard sent to look after him.
Dave Rowlands spent couple of
days this week in Lewiston attend
ing big trap shoot. He won some
of the prizes. Kendrick has some
of the best shooters in this whole
northwest.
]. H. Garner, of Cedar creek
went to Moscow Wednesday to at
tend to some business matters and
said if he had the time he would stop
and listen to Gov. Hawley make his
talk on the issues of the day.

BREAD OF VIKINGS F0UNI

land.

An interesting find was made al
Ljunga, Gothland, by DR.. Schnittger,
professor at Stockholm university.
This is some bread that dates from
the time of Vikings.
Microscopical examination has
shown this bread to be made from
pine bark and pea meat, thus proving
the fact that peas were grown in
Sweden as far back as a thousand
years ago.
Archaeological excavation has so fal
brought to light only few specimens
of bread dating from ancient or pre-
historic times. The few loaves exca
waited in Egypt and in Swiss lake
dwellings are of the highest archie
illogical interest.
In the northern countries only one
or two finds of this kind have SO
far been made, foremost among which
should be mentioned q corn meal Loaf
dating from the fourth century A. D.
which was discovered by DR.. Schn1tt
ger in 1898 in connection with the ex
cavation of Boberg castle.-Scientifie

NO sPooks FOR MuGGINs
Was Afraid Of Nothing He Could I'm
derstand, But Apparition Was
Too Much for Him.

Muggins goes to camp with his folks
every summer on the shore of large
inland lake, and one of the bulldogs
favorite amusements here is in chas-
ing the tiny chipmunks which throng
the woods. He never was known to
capture one, but this does not in the
least dampen his enthusiasm for the
pursuit. It is amusing to watch Mug
gins hustle one of these tiny creatures
up into big tree and then sit pa
tiently at its foot waiting for his prey
to come down-which it quite often
does, but on the opposite side of the
trunk, whence it scurries away to pas
lures new, while poor deluded Mug
gins, all unaware of it's escape, sits
gazing intensely upward in wide-eyed
anticipation of his quarry's reappear.
ance
Muggins despises water, but one day
in his eager rush for cmpmunk he
was over the bank before he knew it
and landed kerhop on his back with
such force as to send him way below
the surface. Disgust spoke from every
feature of his expressive countenance
as he hastily scrambled ashore.
Once as Muggins' master stood in
the boathouse on the lake shore and
saw his favorite trotting toward him,
mischievous thought came to him
and he prepared to surprise the inno-
cent bulldog. Hastily cutting two
round holes for his eyes in big paper
-four bag, which lay at hand, he pulled
it down over his head and shoulders
and doubled over so as to look alto
geter unnatural. Just as Muggins en-
tered the door he sprang forward with
a dismal "boo!" and the dog, who
fears nothing on the face of the earth
which he can understand, jumped
backward, rending the air with a series
of distracted barks, then tore wildly
away on a race for his life, without
even backward glance at the awful
apparition. He did not stop at camp,
but fed into a field far above, where
he installed himself in the open and
continued his excited barking for over
three hours, when he was finally
coaxed back to quarters by his re-
pentant tormentor.

Violin Brings Farmer Wealth.


Finding himself suddenly possessed
of a violin evidently of great value
Charles Riley, Gettysburg farmer
of moderate circumstances, is now
happy over the turn of affairs which
he believes has freed him for the res,
Of his life from financial worries. The
violin was supposed to be worthless
and came to him in the distribution OF
his fathers personal effects.
Riley thought little of the instru,
ment until he was offered $50 for it
He then suspected that it might be
worth more, and refused the Offer
Gradually the would-be purchaser in
creased his offer until it reached
$500, which Riley still refused.
Later in the day an effort was made
by another person to buy the violin,
but Riley is holding on to it until he
can obtain more. The instrument
bears the date "1703," which is carved
on it. His father purchased it at q
public sale.

Live Your Life,

We sometimes wonder of what use
we are, and why we are put on earth.
One day is added to another and we
seem to be no further advanced on the
pathway of our lives. AS Mark Twain
would have put it, we do not appear
to be gaining on the scenery. Yet
there is room in the world, and need
in the world, for each and every one
Of US, and, therefore, we must keep ON
going to the end. Emerson has a
poem in which the squirrel talks to
the mountain and says: IF cannot
carry forests on my back neither can
you crack nut" You can do some
thing nobody else can do, namely,
live your life. You have the chance,
Il you viii only take it, and have
mine. If We can do nothing else We
can at least be some ones friend, and
there is nothing that the world more
keenH wants and sadly needs.]La-

Although the low, fat crowns have
the preference not q few extremely
good style models have the high, bee
hive crown, combined with an up

trimmed with fat bows, Of the pin

high on the crown. To wear with her

nette selected one Of these high crown
models the other day, which was faced
with prune-colored velvet, and had two
bows on either side Of the crown, one
Of a peculiar shade Of cerise velvet,
the other Of prune-color taffeta. You
may be sure the effect, upon her, was
striking.

from various fabrics suitable for that
purpose. We had, in the winter, the
quaint little wreaths snd punches Of
ribbon roses, with their leaves. One

T. J. j
zHE day seems to have passed
praise be. when, if we were
= short and dumpy, or If we
were long and lean we were
obliged to search far and
vide for suitable headgear, because
al the hats were fat and squatty or
else al the hats were steep and tower
ing. Though our gowns and suits must
bear a modish family resemblance
still, the latitude permitted to US in
millinery this season is comforting and
shoe-saving.
There are just two predominating
characteristics Of the spring hats-a
crown size large enough to allow the
hat to rest well down on the head,
and the upward tilt Of the brimmed
shapes, which may have dashing dents
to the side or back, or show the brim
only gently rolled at the edge. For
wear with the spring suit or even with
the dressier costume, the small or the
medium sized hat VIII undoubtedly be
preferred, although later on the lin
gerie gowns viii bring out the pic
turesque large hats which are always
in good taste for dressy occasions.
The woman who is loath to give
up the snug little bonnet shapes she
found so becoming during the winter,
viii be delighted with the spring mod
els which retain the close lines, but
are developed in suitable materials. A
distinct novelty is the small straw or
taffeta hat made up quite without any
wiring. The advantages Of a hat Of
this sort, when travelling, are obvious
One pretty model had the crown and
upper rim made from dark blue, finely
woven hemp, while the under part OF
the brim was Of more coarsely woven
hemp. The brim was turned up square
" across the front, and the only trim
ming was several red velvet roses
which had been arranged on a wire to
form a sort Of aigrette that tilted
backward from the front Of the crown. |
Flowers are used in this manner to a
great extent, by the way, to simulate
aigrettes, and quilts, thus giving
heighth to the trimming. While the
larger flowers appear to be more pop-
uIar. the small flowers are often COM
bined with them in most effective
ways. A fairly large black chip hat
mad as its sole trimming a wide quill
like ornament made Of dull pink roses
edged with Iilies-of-the-7aney. This
curved over the crown from front to
back with a graceful sweep.
Among the small hats the Oriental
turban, made up from the soft taffetas
that promise to be the vogue in MILF
nerT as well as in costuming, win be
worn for early spring. Wings and
quilts and the perky little 'stick-up"
feathered ornaments win continue in
