The new Land Building on the beau
tiful exposition grounds of the Ma.
tional Conservation Exposition is com.
pleted. 1t stands on a terrace; it is
beautiful in design, beautiful in execu-
ton. In the rear Of the building is an
auditorium that will seat 5000 per-
sons. The building is spacious and
vas constructed especially for the
Land Show and all that goes with it.
On the lower floor of the big white
building the land companies and the
land departments of the various rail
roads will have their displays On the
upper floors will be the educational
exhibits, and these will include the ex-
hitits of the different experiment sta
tons Of the United States Department
of Agriculture in the Southern states.
Mr.. Farmer, here are a few of the
things that are going to interest you
when you pay your visit to the Ma
tional Conservation Exposition and the
Land Show in the Fall:
You are going to be shown in a most
striking and convincing manner how
best to maintain and increase the pro-
duction of your land.
Lessons of the Show.
You are going to get ideas on how
70 improve the grade and yields of
plant and animal products.
You are going to see the soil of the
Southern country, and so arranged to
teach you many valuable lessons.
You will see exhibits that have to
do with the impoyerishment of the soil.
You are going to see the best and
most modern methods of crop rotation
Illustrated
You are going to see actual demon
STATIONS of the way in which you can
plsnt and raise little known products
and thus increase the earning capacity
of your lands.

EXPOSITION TO BE READY.
National Conservation Show To Make
New Record In This Respect.

The hundreds of thousands of visit
ors from all parts of the country, and
particularly from the Southern States,
to the National Conservation Exposi-
tion can be assured Of one fact even at
this early date: That no matter how
early they make their visit to the ex.
position after the gates are formally
thrown open they will see the displays
complete.
Work is so far advanced now that
everything will be ready on the open
ing day and the complete line of ex-
hibits in all of the many big, white
buildings, and in all of the various de-
partments of these buildings, will like
wise be ready.
Too many times in the history of ex
positions in other parts of the country
it has happened that the first weeks
saw only a portion Of the exposition
complete. This will not be the case
at Knoxville.

BEYOND HIS POWER.

No more battling problem has cons
fronted a London magistrate for
some time than that which was pre-
sented by an applicant the other day
who complained that when he re-
quested his wife to get up in the
morning at seven o'clock she refused,
necessitating his doing some of the
household duties. He asked the
magistrates advice on the matter,
to which the "arm of the law" re-
piled: 'Tt is beyond my magisterial
power to help you: I know of no
power in this world or the world to
come to compel woman to get up
when she doesn't want to. Perhaps
the court missionary may have some
power. (Laughter.) If I could
cure lazy women by issuing gen.
eral edict I would do SO promptly"

ABNORMAL CHILDREN.

"Fully one-third of all children in
the primary and grammar grades
are physically or mentally incapaci-
tated, or both," says Rheta Childe
Dorr, in an article on "The Child
That Is Different" in the Century.
"These children, approximately one
third Of all children under fourteen
years of age, cannot keep up with
the ordinary school curriculum,
which is devised to meet the needs
of perfectly healthy, normal, aver

LOW RATES FOR EXPOSITION.
Railroads Have Made Concessions Fol
Big Knoxville Show.

Exceptionally low rates-the lowest
ever made for an exposition in the
South-have been made by the rail.
roads for the National Conservation
Exposition in Knoxville, Tenn, during
the months of September and October.
These reduced rates are in force from
start to finish of the exposition and
will afford thousands of persons living
within radius of 800 miles oppor-
tunity to make the trip to Knoxville
at comparatively little cost.

PENNIES ARE PURE COPPER
Utilization of Electricity Has MaterII
ally Reduced Cost Of Re-
fInlng Metal.

A penny Is made from almost
chemically pure copper, which is OBJ
tained by tho new electric methods.
Formerly the refining of copper was
an expensive process, but with the
utilization of electricity the expense
has been materially decreased. >The,
copper is placed at one end Of a,
tank which,is filled with water. This
is called the anode, or positive pole
The action Of a powerful electric
current releases the copper, carries
it through the water and deposits it
on the negative or cathode pole. The
result is what is known as Electric
ity" or cathode" copper. 1t is what
pennies are made of. While the
"electrolitic" is the purest klowh
copper, the '1ake" copper brings
a slightly higher price in the mar
ket. This is because there is a.
small amount Of silver in all the
copper from the Lake Superior re-
gions. 1t is so small that it cannot
be separated at a profit. Silver,
however, is a better conductor of
electricity than copper, and there,
fore, for commercial purposes, the
'1ake" copper is in such demand that
it brings better price.

EXPOSITION THOUGHT.

The expositions of the past were as
songs of achievement at the end of a
good days work. The National Con-
sorvation Exposition will be living
and tangible promise of still more
glorious tomorrow foreordained by the
wise action of to-day.

WHAT A BUSINESS MAN SAID

ment of Big National Exposition

Country Before-Lessons for Farm
crs.

d. Stratton, land and Industrial
agent OF the Cincinnati, New Orleans
Texas Pacific and the Alabama
GIeat Southern railroads, paid his first
visit a few days ago to the grounds
upon which the big National Conserva-
tion Exposition will be held in Knox
Vile from September / to November
or the present year. He went to Knox
Vile with a party of other railroad
men. After his visit to the grounds,
after he saw what had been done and
what was being done in preparation
Tor the exposition, he expressed him
self In this wise:
To say that | was most favorably
Impressed would be to put it mildly
l had no idea that such a site for an
exposition could be found anywhere in
this country. had no idea of the ex-
tent and character of the buildings al
ready up, and I was delighted to see
such good progress being made in the
erection of the big new buildings"
"Will your roads be represented by
land exhibit" he was asked.
"They WILL he replied, positively.
"Ihey could not afford to be unrepre-
sented."
This was hard-headed man of bust
ness speaking. He had seen. That
was enough for him. His decision was
made.
Greatest of All Land Shows.
At this early date this statement can
be made positively and without fear of
contradiction;
THE LAND SHOW AT THE Ma
TIONAL CONSERVATION EXPOSE
TION is GOING TO BE, NOT ONLY
THE GREATEST LAND SHOW EVER
SEEN IN THE SOUTH, BUT THE
GREATEST LAND SHOW EVER
SEEN ANYWHERE IN THE UNITED
STATES.
