Much Interest Shown by Owners
in Events Scheduled as
Feature of Week

Much interest is being manifested in
the coming hfteeth annual Middletown
fair. which is to be held August rs,
rs. 81 and 2S.
The officers and directors of the Mid
dletown Fair Association upon whose
shoulders all the responsibility rests
are making every effort to make the
fair larger than I'VE before. AS usual,
the opening day of the fair, on Tues
day, August %. will be Children's
Day, and all the boys and girls of
Middletown and vicinity will be the
guests of the association. On that day
an elaborate and attractive program
will be arranged and a glorious time
is promised for the younger set"
On Wednesday the horse racing will
start and will continue until the close
of the fair on Friday evening. The
racing events will be under the direc-
ton of the race secretary, w. w.
Conklin, who is working hard to bring
horses of the highest class to Middle
town that week. Among those that
have already been secured are those
owned by J.. C. Packer, of Sunbury.
They are Waverly, 2.04A, the holder
of the Middletown track record: Baby
Jerome, 2.13A; Baron Oakley, 2.15A,
and Bert Anderson. 2.17h.
During the week of the fair the
management has decided to hold a
carnival every night, when many spe-
cial attractions will be offered. One
big attraction each evening during
the week will be a pyrotechnic display.
The agricultural and horticultural de-
partment exhibits, farm and mill prod
ucts, women's handiwork, relics, ETC.,
will be features, as usual.

OLIVES AS AN AMERICAN CROP

Some astonishing evidence has re-
Gently come from our own arid
Southwest. About twenty years ago
there were some olive-plantations
made on irrigated lands in districts
that may properly be called desert.
After the orchards were established,
a failure of the irrigation supply led
to abandonment. The cottonwood
shade trees and the other fruit trees
persisted, but the olive has lived and
thrived for a number of years on the
natural rainfall of S.11 inches per
year at Phoenix and 6.SS inches at
Casa Grande, Arizona.
These trees have lived in a verit-
able flood in comparison with a grove
that was abandoned al Palm Springs.
Cal, in 1900. This place lies in the
Colorado Desert to the east of the San
Jacinto Mountains. The annual pre-
cipitation lis a scant 3h inches, with
a total of only 0.70 inches for 1905,
and a maximum of 9,36 inches for
1906" The 0.7O-inch rainfall of 1908
fell in March. 1t was followed by
twelve ~rainless months and preceded
by en- months with a total of LAO in
November and December, making
twenty-three months, including two
desert m m with a total rainfall
of 2.10 inches. "Scant as this rainfall
is, nearly all of It occurs in the six
months from October to March, inclu-
sive. During the six summer months,
when a temperature of 100 degrees
Fahrenheit is reached almost daily,
there is scarcely a trace of rain. That
any vegetation should be able to pass
through this terrible ordeal of heat
and drought seems beyond belief to
n accustomed to the plant growths
of regions having abundant rainfall;
yet many species of shrubs and three
species of trees are native in these hot
sands. Professor j. Russell Smith, in

Faulty lines in the wall which have

struction, are responsible for the ac-
ton, said Inspector Grove. The build
ing is in constant danger of complete
collapse. The new house will have to
be built from the foundations in con-
formity with the building regulations.
The determination to raze the east
wall was arrived at following the re-
port of a board of viewers or survey

building inspector by Edward Blouch,
Ia contractor, and Ed. Moeslein, a for

necessary permission was given and
the construction work started. The

the builders, was caused by the frosts.
Since the building was complete, Mr..
