Madison-When condemnation pro-
ceedings adding ten acres to the state
fair grounds on the east are conclud-
ed, $4,000 will be available for i'm
provements on the state fair grounds

of the secretary of state and the prop
erty duly accepted by Commissioners
of Agriculture C. P. Norgord
Commissioner Norgord conferred
with District Attorney label and dis
covered that the condemnation pro-
ceedings are progressing, and that
there seems to be nothing in the way

Upon conclusion of condemnation
proceedings there will be available

and $4,000 for two additional sec
tions of the concrete grandstand
The new swine and sheep barns

mails, and the additional sections of
the grandstand will give the stand a
total seating capacity of 5000.

1916 state fair will be thoroughly
discussed by department of agricul-
ture officials and the state fair adj
visory board early in November.

SIR LIONEL GARDEN is DEAD.
British Diplomat succumbs at Home
in London.

London, Oct 19.-Sir Lionel Garden,
long connected with British diplomatic
service and more recently British am
bassador to Mexico, died on Saturday
at his home here Sir Lionel was born
in County Tipperary, Ireland, in 1851.
Sir Lionel first became figure in the
relations between the United States
and Mexico when, upon his arrival in
Mexico City just after Huerta had de-
clared a practical dictatorship, he pre-
scented his credentials. His action was
construed in some quarters as a virtu-
al recognition of Huerta and the lat
ter's acts. In February, 1914, he was
called to London for conference. In
April he was appointed minister to
Brazil. He returned to Mexico City
and remained until September. 1914,
when he was forced by General Car
rama to leave the capital.

SIR EDWARD CARSON
QUITS BRITISH CABINET
Attorney General Resigns in Fight
Over CONSUMPTION and Row Over
the Balkan Situation.

London, Oct. 20.-The first break in
the coalition cabinet organized after
the Kitchener criticism of last spring
came on Monday when Sir Edward
Carson, attorney general, announced
his resignation. The government has
made no announcement of the break.
Carson's detection was the result of
the strenuous fight he has made in
the cabinet in favor of CONSUMPTION.
With only one or two supporters he
has held that the only way England
can raise an army sufficient to insure
victory of permanent nature is by
compulsory military service.
The attorney generals resignation,
which has been predicted for several
days, has created crisis which may
force Premier Asquith to name an
other entirely new cabinet.
simultaneously with the announce
ment by Carson of his resignation
came the announcement that Gen. Sir
Ian Hamilton had been relieved of his
command of the allied troops in the
Mediterranean and replaced by Gen.
Sir c. c. Monro.
The action is believed to be the d.
rect result of the widespread criticism
of the allies failure to break through
the Dardanelles. The tremendous
casualties which this effort has cost.
estimated to be $4,000, have been at
tributed to poor generalship.
The Dardanelles campaign and the
Saloniki expedition are said to have
been bones of contention. Some of
the cabinet ministers are said to have
favored abandoning the Dardanelles
campaign.
Besides. it is reported there is in
certain quarters much criticism of the
landing of French and British troops
at Saloniki to help Serbia.

tons.
The exhibit costs wisconsin moth
ing. either for space or maintenance.
1t is largely of farm crops, with en-
phasis on forage crops and dairylng.
Director Packer is taking steps
leading to cooperation on the part
of counties of Wisconsin in this ex-
hibit in Chicago, which will be per-
manently maintained. He desires
counties to furnish exhibits for per-
iods, and he will see that the ex-
hibits are effectively installed and at
tractively displayed. Director Packer
also plans to conduct illustrated lee
lures on Wisconsin possibilities, per-
haps twice a month, in connection
with the Chicago exhibit.
Many inquiries for Wisconsin land
for settlement come from Chicago,
the number reaching about $500 in
1914. Director Packer plans to noti-
fly all inquirers in Chicago and vicin-
ity of the date of his presence at the
Chicago exhibit, requesting them to
meet him on fixed date.
