Many Visitors Attend
the Pennington fair
CONTINUED from Page u

same time there are many hundreds
IF acres that will produce their first
fruit the coming year and so on for
several seasons.
At the time of our visit frost had
not done any damage in and around
Pennington or further south along
the San Juan, although the Septem-
ber suns were having the effect of
turning vegetation to an autumnal
hue. Many farmers were engaged in
their last cutting of alfalfa, some be-
ing the third and others the fourth.
In this connection the second cutting
was largely a failure on account of
continued rains, but the remaining
cuttings were gotten up in better
shape At George Aliens we found
the mower busy as well as two or
three putting up the last odds and
ends of perishable fruit. Such to-
matoes? Well, they were immense,
but the large and sweet tomato is
one of the sights of the Pennington
district no matter where you go. But
Why consume more space about the
fruit when every one knows all about
IL and the wonderful amount grown
his season. In conclusion, we desire
10 state that the old days have pass
cd and n new condition confronts the
visitor. 1t used to be fruit or moth
ing. Now it's productive crop of
corn and all kinds of vegetables COM
bined with fruit and if a partial or
| total failure in fruit should follow any
year il is not going to put the people
in the dumps ike the past. The
farmers and fruit growers have be-
come wise. They used to put all their
eggs in the same basket 1t is diff
ferent now. They use variety of
baskets to care for the variety OF
thing and means more for the indi-
vidunl and the community as whole
1t means that from this on there will
be an air of prosperity abounding even
should frost or other conditions lay 9
heavy hand on vegetation in the
spring.
The merchants of Pennington re-
port an increasing trade this fall with
moro cash. Even the street show
found money plentiful. All in all oul
southern neighbors have nothing tt
complain of this year. and it is one
of our annual pleasures to make the
trip at fair time, not that VIC think
so much of the exhibits, but because
II brings us face to face with the old
timers and those who till the soil
brings about an exchange of views
and makes life for the optimist more
agreeable.

Why Russia Entered

st. Petersburg, received cablegram
from Servia.
Help" it said.
The Russian statesmen talked for
four hours about it in the country
home of NJ. Geremykin. They reached
some decision, secretly. At Z o'clock
in the evening they dashed off in their
automobiles to their various Offices,
each man to do his own work in con-
nection with what was at hand.
BY this time the armies of Europe
were mobilizing.
Servia's forty-cight hours were up
OH July 26 at 6 in the evening. But
before that time the Russian army
was moving toward Germany and the
German army was moving toward
Russia and in a dozen other different
directions.
Prinzip's bullet had reached its tar
get.
1t had struck the mine under Eu-
rope and this mine will probably kill
million men and create more havoc
than anything else that has ever hap
pened to humanity.
What Prinzip really said or thought
about he committed the assassination
is not known publicly. The Servian
government, in note, said that he
said:
'I was not influenced by any other
person or persons. The reading OF
anarchistic literature made me believe
that there could be nothing finer in
the world than to be an assassin
When in Belgrade | read that the
archduke was going to Serajevo and
so | bought revolver and went
there"
But what he said or thought mat
ters little now. Europe is not fight
ing because Prinzip was u murderer
but because the long and ancient quar-
rel for "a place in the sum-" a place
for each nation to put its feet in the
crowded land has suddenly been turn
ed from contest of words and di-
plomacy into combat on the battle
field.
Some jolt would have set off the
European mine some time.
It'just happened that Prinzip's bull
let did it.
