The various towns of Yavapal
county were all represented and
it was worthy of note that a very
large part of the prizes went to
Verde Valley and to the numer-
Gus settlements throughout Yav-
apai county. Only a small pro-
portion of the prizes were award
ed Prescottonians, except in
the woman's department where
the exhibits were made up al
most entirely of articles contri-
buted by the ladies of Prescott.
A large part of the articles dis
played especially in the agricul-
tural and livestock exhibits and
from the mineral department
were forwarded to Phoenix and
are being shown at the State
Fair this week.
From the standpoint of sport,
the fair was an unqualified sue
cess.
Lewis Francis, the Los Ange-
les aviator, was on hand with his
Curtis Biplane. Although he
had an 8 cylinder so h. p., en-
gine, the altitude made it impos-
sible to carry passengers and the
flying was done by L. M. Nixon,
a much lighter man than Francis.
The frequent flights of the ma
chine were full of interest for
those who had never seen an air.
ship and were a revelation in the
mastery handling of this vessel
of the air.
Each day, there was given a
program of races and western
sports which kept those in atten-
dance vividly interested.
The evenings were also ar
ranged for. There was special
performance at the Elks theatre,
on the first night. A carnival
company supplied variety for the
second night and the Fair wound
up with a grand ball, uuder the
auspices of the ladies of the Mon
day club of Prescott.
1t was the concensus of opin-
ino, not only of the managers of
the Northern Arizona Fair AS
sociation, but also of the many
visitors from the northern coun-
ties, that the Fair would be a
permanent institution. Pres.
K. N. Fredricks has called upon
the heads of each department of
the Fair for suggestions as to
how the exposition can be made
of more value and there will un-
questionably be put forward plans
that will make these counties
realize that the Northern Arizona
Fair is not merely a Prescott
fair. but is the fair also of each
of the other counties. The Fairs
of the future will not only carry
special prizes for exhibits from
the different counties, but there
will also be established vaIious
races and sporting events which
will insure the interest of men
from every part of the State and
will also increase the. attendance.
Much of the success of the fair
was due to the splendid support
given the management by the
papers of Northern Arizona.
Throughout all parts of the state,
the columns of the press were en-
ployed in extending publicity to
the affair and assisting in the
effort to establish an event which
should be recognized as belong
ing to all Northern Arizona.

NAVAJO COUNTY MAKES
GOOD AT NORTHERN
ARIZONA FAIR

Even the most Sanguine hopes
of the managers of the Northern
Arizona Fair were surpassed by
the results secured at Prescott.
Both in exhibits and in number
of attendance were far in excess
of what had been anticipated.
Although the ridge of four
northerly counties did not parti-
cipate in the exhibits as greatly
as they unquestionably will in
the future, yet they contributed
largely to the attendance. And
every train from the north dur
ing the Fair and several days
prior to it's opening, brought to
Prescott great crowds of Nor
thern people.
Navajo county made a very
interesting exhibit of agricultur-
al products. They were sent to
the Fair in charge of w. j. Flake
and Pratt Larson. These gen.
tlemen arrived early and spent
much of time and energy in get
ting their exhibits into good
shape. The exhibit proved a
very attractive one and caused a
great deal of comment. Although
much of the best material gather
ed together for exhibition pur-
poses had been forwarded to
Tulsa, Oklahoma, to add to the
attractiveness of Arizona's ex-
hibit at the international Dry
Farming Congress, there was
still enough left to enable the
exhibitors to compete favorably
with farmers who lived much
nearer Prescott. Among the
Navajo county prize winners
were the following; w. j. Flake,
first prize for baled alfalfa hay.
Frank McLaws, first prize for
one half bushel wheat and first
prize for one half bushel oats.
Frank Willis first prize for best
sheaf yellow corn.
Don C. Smith, first prize for
best winter squash.
Lakeside provided two winners,
Hans Hansen, who got second
prize for yellow corn in the
sheath and Pratt Larson, who
got first prize for Irish potatoes.
The farmers of Coconino county
did not send any of their agricul-
tural products to the fair, al
though they participated in the
livestock exhibition and drew a
number of the best prizes. The
Grand Canyon Sheep company,
of Flagstaff, were awarded four
first prizes and one second prize
for the stock they sent; G. G..
Hutchinson and company, were
awarded four frsts and two sec
Onds.
An exhibit which attracted a
great deal of attention was pro-
vided by the Arizona Lumber
and Timber company, of Flag
staff. At the entrance of the
Mining tent, were three square
sets of mining timbers in position
and all practically moulded as if
in place in a drift. The company
also had an exhibit of their fin
ished products in paper boxes,
etc., and also a section of one of
their big pine trees. The labels
on the boxes exhibited were a
good indication of the wide ex-
tent of territory covered by this
Arizona company. While one
box bore the label of the United
Verde Fruit company, another
was made for the Rhodes Fruit
Farm, of South Africa.
Mohave county's display of
minerals was awarded the first
prize of $50. The second prize
of 500 for the best county dis
play went to Yayapai county.
w. 0. Ruggles, who was mineral
comissioner for the Mohave
county display, put in a great

FOR RELIEF CONGESTION.
Gen. Aleshire Reports Favorably on
Aqueduct bridge Plans.

Quartermaster Gen. Aleshire has re-
ported favorably to the Secretary Of War
on plans recently submitted by a board OF
army engineers to relieve the growing
traffic congestion on the government
reservation forming the Virginia APP
proach to the Aqueduct Bridge across
the Potomac. These plans call for the re-
moval OF all freight business, the trans
fer OF the terminal of the Washington
Utilities Company. and the postoffice
from their present site on the reserva-
ton near the bridge entrance to a new
site near the southern end of the reserva-
ton. and the widening OF military road.
According to the ouartermaster Cen
eral. the railway companies now occupy
about 81 per cent Of the available high
ground OF the reservation, with the result
that the military road to the bridge is
only about . feet wide for a distance OF
$40 feet frUm the bridge.
Gen. Alesh re says that the Washington
Utilities Company, has been permitted to
occupy free OF rent its present site on the
reservation for seventeen years, and that
during part of. that period has received
$40 year rent from a subtenant The
Secretary of War has arranged to give
the officials of that company a hearing
before putting the plans OF the engineer
board into execution.

While many of the wealthy people of
the Capital were striving vainIy yester-
day to escape the intense heat. the prob
lem of being comfortable was solved by
about 10 of the mothers and babies of
Washington's poorest families. They
were the members of the party that
opened Camp Good Will.
The camp is situated on the top of a
high hill in Rock Creek Park. where the
campers get the benefits of the slightest
breeze. Some of the visitors yesterday
were whisked to the camp in the autos
of philanthropic Westinghouse. They
were those who went from the Associated
Charities headquarters. Those who re-
ported at the Georgetown branch were
taken out in the street cars. Those who
formally opened the camp will remain
for two weeks, and then their places will
be taken by others.
