FARMERS EXHIBIT

The Solebury Farmers Exhibit,
rising in three years from a home
products show to an international
art exposition, is an example of
enterprise that has never been
duplicated in this section of the
country.
A special art gallery will be pro-
vided in the pavilion, at the Deer
Park, and such noted artists as
Daniel CARRIER. of Lumberville;
William Lathrop, Charles Rosen and
Morgan Colt, of New Hope and
Solebury, will contribute two each
of their famous landscapes, painted
from local scenes, and enjoying in
ternational distinction.
Nothing of this kind has ever be-
fore been attempted at a farmers
exhibition, and their paintings have
already taken high prizes at inter-
national exhibits.
1t was largely due to the efforts
of Mrs. D. A. Davenport, of New
Hope, that the artists consented to
exhibit paintings of such high
quality, and under such conditions.
Charles Fredrick Ramsey, HIM
self an artist, will look after the ex-
hibit of paintings, and it is expected
that it will prove one of the main
attractions of the show.
A special meeting of the exhibit
committee was held Monday after
noon in the Chautauqua tent at the
close of the afternoon performance,
with Chairman George H. Ely and
a number of the members present.
The final plans for the exhibit
were discussed, and the lists of
premiums enumerated. Many prizes,
all donated by interested friends of
the Solebury Farmers Club and
and Carversville Grange, will be
given. A list of them will be
found on another page. None of
them are of high intrinsic value,
but their winners value them more
highly than diamonds, because they
represent the opinion of carefully
selected judges who have time
sufficient to decide upon the merits
of the exhibits.
The exhibit will be held at the
Solebury Deer Park on Friday and
Saturday, September 4th and 9Th,
and novel feature of the program
is that those attending on Friday
will be admitted free on Saturday.

ed in the subvention is not explained.
If 1t is justified i'm the case of news
papers and magazines, on the ground
that in democracy the government
should thus encourage the diffusion
of ideas among the people, why are
books considered less important for
this purpose? II certainly seems that
our postal laws have Disseminated

tration has improved the situation. as
far as the nearer zones are concerned
by the inclusion of books in the par.

zones the rate is higher than before
Whenever the postal rate on books
is higher than the cost of handling
the government is levying an unneces'
sary tax on ideas.
Our tariff on English books bears
heaviest on those who are least abl'
to pay it--our scholars, our teachers
our scientific investigators. Else
where the most enlightened govern
ments do everything in their power I,

Instead OF being taxed they shoul'
be privileged. not for the encourage
ment of an industry but for the edu

boys and girls arrived at the Union
Station during the morning and early
forenoon hours on their way to the
several Maine camps and other re-
sorts. When they had been safely
started on their way, on later trains
large number of boys and girls ar
rived on the noon trains. This traffic
with the other traffic that always
comes to the railroad few DAYS be-
fore July every year, made strenu-
Gus times at the station and kept ev-
eryone on the jump. Double trains
have been the rule rather than the
exception so far as the through ex-
presses are concerned. There has not
been dull moment during the day,
and, as yesterday, the railroad men
employed at the station have hustled
every minute. Word from New York
last night said that the through train
from the big city would be heavy ones
as reservations for the Bar Harbor
and the State of Maine Expresses
were being taken quickly. AS fast as
new cars were added to the list there
were applications for accommodations.
The Bar Harbor train was SO heavy
that it was necessary to bring 1t
through in two sections. all Pullmans
The banner train of the day was
the State of Maine Express which was
hauled from the Metropolis in three
sections.
The Bar Harbor train went out in
two sections and the Rockland also
went out in two sections.
This noon the Eastern division ex-
press from Boston came in two trains
and so many passengers were bound
for the Rocfiland section that the
trains were continued through to the
East.
Among the camps to arrive were
Androscoggin, kineo. Accomac and
others.
One of the most inspiring scenes OF
the morning was the dining room at
the West End Hotel at the breakfast
hour. The several camps of boys and
girls to arrive on the State of Maine
Express dined at the hotel and they
were enthusiastic youngsters and their
laughter and chatter indicated that
they preferred to start their good time
before reaching their summer camps.
About 300 were cared for, Their train
was some late in arriving and
through the efforts of Manager Mason
of the hotel, the Mountain Division
train this morning was held several
minutes for the benefit of the young
travellers.
Several of the camp parties this
morning dined at the Station dining
room previous arrangements having
been made with Manager Graham.
There is every indication that the
business for the balance of the week
from a passenger traffic standpoint
will be heavy. All Pullmans arriving
in Portland on extra trains are being
sent back to New York to be in readi-
ness for the heavy rush of business.
