, DOINGS IN THE AUTO WORLD
Plans Well Under Way for National Circuit of Automobile Races-Storage Batteries Require More Attention in Winter Months-French Government Has Ordered More American Made Auto Trucks-Suggestions in Gasoline Economy

Plans for the great National Circuit of automobile contests are well under way, this movement having been made a practical necessity owing to the most remarkable growth of automo- bile competition. The ever increasing list of speedways to be constructed, and for many of which ground has all ready been purchased and capital se- cured. and some of which are already constructed and being successfully operated, has made it advisable to gather all events of the year into a group and apportion the dates as near ly as possible consecutiveIy so as to save travelling expenses and the wear and tear of travelling to the drivers, their mechanics and to the officials of the American Automobile Association who regularly act at these events The condition which is rapidly arising in the automobile world is not dissimilar to the condition which existed when in 1894 the League of American Wheel men formed the National Cycle Rac- ing Circuit and by doing so cut the travelling of the riders of bicycles thousands of miles and cut the ex- penses quite in two through an in telligent arrangement of dates for race meets. The National Circuit of cycle racing was a feature in American competition for years and a circuit of automobile race meets would be quite as much feature.

OUR COUNTY FAIR.

In some way Dur people neg
lected to have a good fair las,
year. II Is true the seasons where
such that we wers not able to
make as good display as we
might otherwise have done, still
we could have made a good show
ing. Simply because we can't
have something better to exhibit
than we had the year before, that
is no reason why we should not
get together the best we have.
We trust We will all get together
this year and have a fair that
will do credit to the county. We
want a showing from every part
OF the county; we must begin in
time to arrange booths, prizes
and all the necessaries that will
insure a good fair. Besides the
exhibit feature. we need to get
together and talk over the new
ideas We have worked out this
year and We ought to have sew
eral Of these to report upon.

The stock here il in unusually

The convicts here seem TO be

In concluding this report, |
would advise and urge that all

MARKET
ING.

In view of the fact that many
of our farmers have discovered
the boil weevil in many parts of
the county, therefore it IS neees-
sary that we begin in time to
combat this pest. We want to
make a suggestion to the mer-
chants here. We want the mer-
chants here to from an organiza-
ton for the purpose of obtaining
markets for the farm produces
OF the citizens. The farmers r
due this much consideration. The
ordinary farmer has never studi-
ed marketing; he knows nothing
what ever about where to ship
his produce but the merchant
knows, or at least can find out in
a very few days time. What We
need ID to have market for pota-
toes, beans, peas, strawberries
fruits, hay. corn and all farm
products. The farmer gets tir.
ed of trying to peddle out hi
produce; the fact IS he becomes
very much discouraged in this
many times he comes in with I
small ayssas and the merchant
are overstocked and the peopl'
in town don't have the money an
don't pay any attention to him
What we need is to have an or
ganization here that can furnis
market for the farmer: il nee
sssary they al fix a day O
which to bring here certain pro
duets for shipment. It will ;
easy TO ship . car load Of Iris

When Greek Meets Greek.

Bows Advocate: J. P. Metcalf of
Webster City was in town few
days last week renewing the &C
quaintance of his old West Liberty
friend and neighbor David Millar.
Mr.. Metcalf is quite checker en-
thusiast. He is the first man with
whom Mr.. Millar played when he
came to Iowa forty-one years ago.
These two men had many a friendly
game back in the seventies, in fact
they both went through the Fresh
man, Sophomore, Junior and Senior
years of Checkerdom during the four
years Mr.. Millar lived at West Lib
erty. Since 1877 they have never
had opportunity to determine how
we'll the other had learned the game
until now. Those who witnessed a
few of last weeks games report that
each man had found his equal. As
each however, has a reputation to
maintain in his own town, in cour-
tesy to both we refrain from pub
fishing the score.
