BIG PREPARATIONS FOR
THE COUNTY FAIR
The 1914 Fair Promises to be the
Biggest in the History Of Mar
shall County.

The premium lists for the county
fair are off the press announcing to
the people of Marshall County prizes
that will be offered for exhibitions
of products. That this fair comes at
an opportune time, we find express
ed in the greetings published in the
premium list in the following words:
I'VE feel again that the dates Sc
lected, September IA, IS, Is, the
first three days Of the third week of
September, We're happily and wisely
chosen. The fair VIII be held when
al! grains, vegetables and grasses
will have reached maturity. Nature
has fairly outdone herself this sea-
son throughout the Red River Valley
and in our county in particular. The
crop will soon be garnered and it
would seem most fitting time to
enjoy slight relaxation from siren
uous labor incident thereto" This
will be an opportunity for everybody
from every part Of the county to
come together for a general good
time. There will be attractions for
all, and the fair association promises
that they will be of high standard.
One attraction that will be of par
ticular interest is the aeropfane
| flight which we are now assured will
be given two days. Heine, the Fly
ing Dutchman, is the aviator with
whom a contract has been made.
There will be horse races which
will create local interest, for they
will be more in the interest of local
| horses than races at previous fairs
this year have been.
A large number of exhibits are be-
ing arranged for One innovation
is the Pure Seed Growers exhibit
and is expected that all pure seed
growers will place their grain in
this contest. Then there is the
Farmers Clubs contest which ought
to create no little interert. The ru-
raj schools will exhibit in their new
exclusive building; this attraction
promises to eclipse anything Of the
kind in this part of the state.
| The two new buildings which have
been proposed for the fair grounds
will be under construction next week
The contract for the building has
been let to Bernard Bros.

OVER $4,000, 900 SPENT
IN ROADS IN 1918
10000 MILES STATE AID ROADS
AUTOMOBILE REVENUES
NEARLY $4,000, 900

The =. S. Department of .Agric,l :
ture mas given out a table of high
way data which is of great interest.
The local cash road and bridge ex-
penditures on the part of counties,
districts and townships has not yet
been compiled for 1913, but it is es-
timated that these figures are 10 per
cent lower than those for 1913. In
that year there was total expendi-
ture of state funds for roads of ap-
proximately $38,750,00O. The local
road expenditures, if 10 per cent
increase over 1912 is correct, would
amount to S151, ,25O,OOO. In addi-
ton, there must be counted approx
mately s15,OOO,0O0, as the value of
statute labor in working out the
road tax. This makes total out
lay for roads in 1913 of about $780,
100000.
In 1904 the total expenditures for
labor aggregated little less than
SS0,0O0,O00 so that the present annu-
al expenditure for roads is more than
two and a half times as great as it
was nine years ago.
The fact that the states for 1914
have appropriated nearly S43,000,000
over the 1913 appropriation, and an
increase of nearly $13,000,000 over
the 1912 state appropriation, indi-
Gates an increased interest in the
state development Of good roads.
The mileage of roads built with the
aid Of state funds to the close of
1913 aggregated nearly $1,000 miles,
or only about 1000 miles less than
the famous national road system of
France
There are now but nine states that
set aside no state funds for road
building. They are Florida, Indiana,
Mississippi, North and South Dako-
ia, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas
and Georgia; none of these with the
exception of the Dakotas and Geor-
gia have any state highway law. The
total mileage Of roads in the country
was in 1913, 2,226,S42 with 223,774
improved. Minnesota had 79,32a
miles with 6,2O6 improved.
The tale shows that automobile
owners paid in licenses and fees in
1913, S7,820,S95, nearly all of which
was applied to road work. This sum
is about one-thirtieth of the total
state and local expenditure fol
roads.

FIRST LADY OF. THE
LAND PASSES AWAY
Mrs. Wilson succumbs After Briei
Illness Thursday and is Buried
at Rome, Ga, Tuesday.

The news Of the death of Mrs.
Wilson, wife of the President of the
United States, which occurred last
Thursday, at 5 p. NJ, was received
with profound sorrow throughout
the country and the entire American
people are united in expressing the
sympathy to the president. Mrs.
Wilson had been ailing for some
months past, but was thought to be
on the way of recovery when about
a week ago her illness took turn
for the worse. For some months she
has been suffering from nervous
breakdown, this was aggravated by
a fall On the White House floor not
long ago and then Bright's disease
so weakened her that no aid could be
rendered
The funeral services were held at
the White House Monday, these were
marked by simplicity as Mrs. Wilson
desired. It was a private funeral
service, only very few intimates
being present. There was a profu-
sion Of floral tributes from all parts
of the country and from people in
every walk Of life, from those high
in station and those Of low, many of
whom she had befriended. There
We're no honorary pall-bearers. The
casket was borne from the White
House by six members of the police
force, who for many years have
guarded the executive mansion.
The interment was made at Rome,
Ga, where she spent many of her
girlhood days and where the mother
and father are buried. Myrtle Hill
cemetery at Rome will be the final
resting place Of the presidents wife.
Mrs. Wilson's life was that of a
lovable, Christian woman Plain
and unassuming, not placing herself
on account of her high social posi-
ton, above others of lower rank, she
won friends among all classes. She
took a great and vital interest in the
friendless and the poor. In her am
bition to perform her full duty in
Washington, Mrs. Wilson added to
her soc;a! obligations very great ac-
tivity in philanthropic work connect
ed with the redemption of the slnms
of Washington. At the time of he,
death, bill was pending in congress
| which was the creature of her owr
hand for the betterment of the slums
and congress, to fulfill her dying
wish, passed it, before she passed
away.
She also was active in attempting
to bring about conctructive action il
the matter Of education in the
Southern mountain districts. Con
sidering these deeds of kindness, lit
tie wonder then that floral tribute:
came from persons of low as well a:
| high rank.

month of July cut the estimates Of
the spring wheat yield about Is to

Minnesota is promised good av-
erage crop, despite adverse condi-
tions which have cut down the yield
and with that she is fortunate for

mand and as consequence high
prices. The winter wheat crop Of
the United States is estimated at

The forecast places all wheat at
nine hundred eleven million bushels.
Other farm crops are estimated lex

crops and black rust will bring the
previous estimate down to above fig

farmers there are suffering from a
prolonged drouth which if not brok-
