SHINING FEATURE
OF ANNUAL FAIR
BETTER BABIES CONTEST AT THE
LATAH COUNTY SHOW WILL
BE STRONG CARD
Details Being Worked Out by Mrs. w.
E. Wallace, Superintendent in
Charge Contest Limited

Perhaps no announcement relative
to the program for Latah County Fair
week will be received with more gen
eral or more sincere enthusiasm than
that which states that the annual
Better Babies Contest will be held on
September 21st and 22d, the first two
days of the fair. Mrs. W. E. Wallace
will act as superintendent of the de-
partment, and this fact alone assures
an event of more than common inter
est and success.
The Better Babies Contest will this
year be open to children from one to
four years of age. AS only fifty entries
will be permitted, it is highly advis-
able that those mothers who have
children they wish to be entered for
the prizes, should make application at
the earliest possible moment. Any
mother who wishes to have her baby
registered among the fifty contestants
should notify Mrs. Wallace at once by
telephone or by letter. Mrs. Wallace
will assign to each child entered
definite hpur for the examination.
The Womens rest room on the fair
grounds will, as heretofore, be the
scene of the examinations, and the
hours will be from ten to twelve on
the mornings of the twenty-first and
twenty second. The change from
the former afternoon hours is consid
cred to be great advantage to both
and parents:
AS is generally known, the Better
Babies Contest is popular yet sci
entific movement to improve the race
by holding up certain physical and
mental standards of perfection to
which every mother should aim to
bring her baby. 1t was started by the !
Home Companion and has
been successful all over the United |
States. The two previous contests
leld in Moscow were instructive and
most successful. 1t is expected that
he list of fifty applicants will be
illed within the next few days.

The market opened active and firm at
an advance of to 8 points. with Octo-
Der contracts selling at 1O.4S and jan
uary at 11.03, making new high records
for the season. Strength in Liverpool
and the advances in southern spot mar
kets late yesterday doubtless encour-
laged a further broadening of Wall
street and commission house interest,
while spot houses were buyers of Octo-
Der. and sentiment seemed to be favor
ably Influenced by more favorable
view of international politics and the
talk that the proposed foreign loan
would facilitate export business. The
market met very heavy realizing at
the advance. however. with reactionary
sentiment promoted by the favora BILE
weather, and prices broke some or 9
points from the best during the early
trading.
Reports of increased southern spot
offerings and prospects for continued
fair weather increased the disposition
to take profits later, and October con-
tracts sold off to 1889, while January
declined to 1890. or about to points
net lower.
The census report showing domestic
mill consumption of 464,4S6 bales for
