TO REVIVE AGRICULTURAL FAIRS
Department at Washington Tells Of
The Benefits to Be Derived.

Washington, Jan. 3I.--In an effort
to revive interest in the oldtime ag-
ricultural fairs. the department OF aS-
riculture, today. issued a bulletin treat
ing of the benefits TO be derived from
such gatherings. The report is OF MS
toric interest, for it tells of the be-
ginning of such fairs" when the
country was young and when they
were not only an advantage To asri-
culture but were the excuse for social
gatherings as we'll.
The report declares thai the first
real agricultural fair was held by the
Columbian Agricultural Society in
Georgetown, ID. c., in 1909 Accord
ing to the newspapers of that day II
was attended by a numerous assem- e
blage of members of the society,
among whom We're noticed the Presi-
dent and his lady. the secretary OF
state, the secretary of the treasury
the secrtary of war, the comptroller,
the registrar, etc.
Secretary Wilson is a firm believer
in the efficacy of local and state fairs
in disseminating agricultural knowl-
edge. The bulletin is said to have
been inspired by his belief that an
interchange of ideas among the farm
ers of the country would lend to the
advance of agriculture

BACHELORS AFTER DILLINGHAM;
OF Senate, Who Says Single Men
Should Not Be Admitted to Country.

Washington, Jan. 31.-BachelorS of
both the Senate and House, today, are
lying in wait for Senator Dillingham;
of Vermont. While the senator has
not yet been found it is not believed,
he Is in hiding, despite the viglantes
The trouble arose because of the Yer
monter's declaration, last night, at a
local church, that bachelors should not
be admitted to the country. Mr.. Dill
ingham incidentally. is chairman ot
the immigration committee of the
Senate.
In view of the fact that many Of
these men are married." he told his
hearers, referring to the tide of i'm
migration fiocking to these shores
and that they leave their wives and
children in the old country, it would
be a good thing for this nation to
rule that only married men accom-
panied by their families shall enter
the gates"
The bachelors in Congress are nom
plussed. In the Congregational diree-
tory, Senator Dillingham; is not re-
corded as ever having married, nor is
his name in the official register pre-
eeded by the typographical marks
that designate that he is accompanied
by wife, daughters or other Ia
dies"
Unless the senator is able to prove
an alibi, the single men in the Cap
1tol intend to take him severely to
task.

A New Seaport for Mexico.

Acapulco, the deepest and safest
harbor on the west coast of Mexico,

Mexico and all the rich manufacturing

to the capital and to Vera Cruz both
ports equally distant from Chapultepec.
The progress first started, which in
