Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. 4-The open
ing day OF the fair, Sept. IA, will be
devoted entirely to automobile races
Such stars as Tetzlaff, Carlson,
Hughes, and half a dozen others OF
national reputation, will compete in
at least six events. The program of
races will not be announced until
about Sept. 1, for the reason that
those m charge or mAse events desire
to arrange the best program possible
The state fair track is one of the
fastest ordinary courses for auto
drivers In the world. Both OIdfeld
and 'Burnam have broken worlds rec
ords over II.
Because of the. fact that Sept. IA
will be devoted entirely to auto races,
special efforts VIII be made to have as
many automobile owners OF Wisconsin
and nearby sections OF Illinois and
Iowa in attendance as possible.
The Wisconsin; Motorist Is making
earnest efforts to have q big showing
OF motorists. In addition to what Is
being done in this direction by the
fair board ITSELF
There are nearly $4,000 owners Of
automobiles in Wisconsin, and of this
number about 12.ooo reside in Milwau-
kee county. Efforts are being made
to have $4,000 automobiles on the
grounds On Automobile Bay Figuring
i've passengers to car as an average.
$4,000 would be taken to the grounds
In autos, If auto owners turn out as
they are expected 10 on this day. II
only half Of this number turn out,
however, a crowd OF nearly $4,000 will
be on the grounds on opening day.
For the first time since the fair has
been in existence, an auto can be driv-
en- from the center Of Milwaukee all
the way to the fair gates on asphalt
pavement by the time the fair opens.
The Blue Mound road has been paved
to the Hawley road and the 'HawIey
road is being paved from the. Blue
Mound road to National avenue at the
present time. This gives roadway
without rut all the way to the fair.
A special attraction to all auto own
ers also will be the automobile display
this year, bigger and better than ever.
The superintendent OF the department
announces that he will have ON exhibi-
ton the 1915 models of cars used prin-
cfpally In Wisconsin, thus beating all
automobile shows in this line of ex-
hibits by at least four months There
Will be many more exhibits than ever
before in the automobile department,
and the exhibits will be more varied.

town. Wisconsin, Jefferson County, Tuesday, August 1914

tary of the State Agricultural Ex-
pertinent association, Mr. Moore is
familiar with farming conditions
throughout the state and makes this
assertion from personal observation
and experience.
When we consider the advance
that has been made in this state in
breeding pure-bred seeds, it is aston
ishing to see the large amount of in
ferior grain that goes on the market.
Up until harvest time Wisconsin
grain is as good as any that can be
produced, but after it is cut some
farmers allow it to deteriorate
through lack of proper care. After
a reasonable drying in the shock,
grain should be put into barns or
stacks, even though the initial cost
is little more than leaving it in the
shock and threshing from the field.
Moldy and musty grain is the
most serious evil resulting from
leaving grain in the shocks. Farm
ers often have difficulty in getting a
threshing machine at the desired
time and when one does come they
feel obliged to use it, regardless of
the condition of their grain. Thus
it often happens that the grain is
threshed when it is wet or during a
rain, and then put into bins while
still damp, where it is almost sure
to mold. Again, a farmer may not
be able to get a thresher for months.
In the meantime his grain gets wet
and lies in the shocks until it begins
to grow-becoming at times a. total
loss.
Among other elements of loss
which enter in when grain is left in
the shock are birds, mice and floods,
all levying a tax on the harvest that
is an important factor in determining
the farmers loss or gain.
"On the other hand, when grain is
protected by storage in barns or
stacks it goes through the natural
sweating processes and will not heat
and get musty if stored in deep bins
after threshing. Grain should usual
ly remain in the stacks for three or
four weeks before threshing to be
in the best condition for marketing
or storage"
