AIRSHIP FOR THE FAIR.
seven Big Free Attractions Daily
Make Finest Program Ever
Offered.

The officers of the Winneshiek
County Fair have been busy the
past few weeks engaging a line of
attractions for the fair, and they
have been successful in getting with
out doubt the best lot of free exhi-
hitions ever seen on the grounds.
Ordinarily there have been but two
or three minor attractions, but this
year, every day, there will be seven
big free feature acts, each of which
is of the kind and quality usually
seen at the state fairs.
Foremost is the airship flights.
You know that last year they were
a failure, and the fair management
determined to make good this fall
in this regard without fail. Yester-
day, after extensive investigation,
contract was made with F. NJ
Barnes, of Chicago the we'll known
state fair attraction manager, for
the Rex Monoplane Co. of South
Beach, Staten Island, N. Y. Two
flights will be given daily in the big
monoplane, the most novel and in
teresting of all aeroplanes. Flights
are guaranteed, and we can be as
sured that there will be no disap-
pointment this year.
Than thnrn ic hn
of six expert acrobats, all in a mag
niflcent scientific acrobatic perfor-
nance that comes very highly rec
ommended. Also three men in
comic acrobatic act that cannot fail
TO please.
In addition to the above there will
be a special balloon ascension and
parachute jump daily, high dive
act from an eighty foot tower into
tank of water, a fancy shooting
and disrobing act, all of them very
good.
The DR.. Tanner Carnival Co.,
was engaged yesterday, after extern
sive negotiations, and includes thir-
teen acts, concessions and perfor-
mances, really a whole show in it
self. They will have a merry-go-
round, picture shows, snake shows,
tent shows and acts of various kinds.
With this line of attractions and
the many exhibits already promised,
the rebuilding of the grounds. and
the many things that will be done
to splendidly entertain the people,
Winneshiek county is booked for
the best fair in it's history next
month.

NO BAD ADVERTISING.
Fraudulent Advertising of Every
Kind Barred by Iowa Statute.

Advertising with intent to de-
fraud has come to an end. There
must be no intent to defraud" when
erroneous statements are made in
ads printed in the papers or posted
on the boards. Along with the nee
essity for having foodstuffs pure
and bakeries clean and the oil not
mixed and plenty of camphor in the
spirits, there must be honesty in ad-
vertising bargain days and cheap
farm lands at bargain.
But the newspaper publisher is not
to be held responsible If the adver-
tiser says things in the ads that are
not quite right. The new law lets
out the publisher entirely under a
good faith" clause which covers a
multitude of things.
The new Iowa law, as it was en-
rolled and goes into the Session
laws, is as follows: "a
whoever, with inten a sell, or
in anywise dispose of mer, landise,
securities, service, or anything offer
ed by him, directly or indirectly, to
the public for sale or distribution, or
with intent to increase the consump-
tion thereof, or to induce the public
in any manner to enter into any obli-
cation relating thereto, or to acquire
title thereto, or an interest therein,
causes, with intent to defraud direct
ly or indirectly, to be made publish
ed, disseminated, circulated or plac-
ed before the public, in this state,
in a newspaper or other publication
or in the form of book, notice,
handful, poster, bill, circular, pam
phlet or letter or in any other way,
an advertisement Of any sort re-
arding merchandise, securities, serv-
ice, or anything so offered to the
public, which advertisement contains
any assertion, representation or
statement of fact, which is untrue or
deceptive, shall be guilty of mis-
demeanor Provided, however, that
nothing herein contained shall be
construed to place liability hereun-
der on any owner, publisher. agent,
or employe of newspaper or other
publication for the publication of
such advertisement published in good
faith"

Not in many years has there been

and with the close of the building

modern and metropolitan appear.
anee than ever before, or than any
city of its size that we have ever
seen.
Never in single year have so
many public enterprises and i'm
provements been financed success
fully in Decorah, and they all reflect
great credit upon the enterprise
public spirit and generosity of our
people.
Most prominent among these pro-
jects is the subscription for the new
Decorah Hospital, which has reach
ed considerably over the sum of
$25,000.0O asked for; then the new
and complete electrolier street
lighting system, which cost practi-
cally 100000 and has been INSTALL
ed by the business men of the city;
the purchase by nine business men
of the county fair grounds for S5,-
10000, the addition of lots adjoin-
ing 1t at cost of S1,000.00, and
another 100000 expended in i'm
provements; the new city park,
which has called for expenditures
of upwards of $2,500.00 in addi-
tion to the park tax of 10000 the
new Elks Home, which involves an
expenditure of s1O,0O0.00; the gym
nasium and Boy Scout building and
equipment, costing probably $4,000 ;
and within the past year the Nor
wegian United Lutheran Old Peo-
pies Home, for which about $1,000
has been raised in and about Decor
ah.
r All these are public projects and
have been financed within a year by
public subscription. In all they
amount to approximately 100000,
" hich is a record that reflects great
credit upon the most beautiful city
of its size in America.
Many other improvements of a
substantial nature are we'll under

which will be one of the finest in
the state, is we'll along. There has
been a delay in the erection of the

caused by the falling of some of the
granite blocks from the top last
week, but meanwhile work is pro-
crossing on the carving, and on the

The building of the new heating
plant and other extensive improve
