HOLD FAIR AT WILSON
Annual Intercounty Event-Celebra-
ton of Prosperous Town.

Wilson. Kan, May 2S.-The dates
for the second annual Wilson inter-
county fair have been fixed for Oc-
tober 5, 6, z. and s. Last year the fair
management put on more drawing
cards than was advertised and it
proved a big success financially. The
association is erecting new stock
barns, besides other buildings. 1t is
claimed they have the largest covered
grandstand west of Topeka, as well as
one of the fastest half mile tracks in
the state. The association belongs to
the north central Kansas racing cir
cult and the American Trotting asso-
citation.
One of the free attractions this year
is the Hunter Mckinney racing
combination of a palace car of thor
standing races and hurdle races. Will
son will be the only town to get this
attraction.
The Weber Bros, merchants. bank
ers. and stock men, have added to
Wilson an ice plant of 5 tons daily
capacity.
The Wilson Milling and Elevator
Co, success to the Yost Milling Co,
have completely remodeled the plant
and installed new modern machinery.
This mill has a daily capacity of 500
barrels. A new modern office is be-
ing erected, besides u reinforced con-
crete elevator of $50, 900 capacity All
these improvements will be completed
Ward is the manager or the plant. The
new mill and elevator will be among
the largest on the Union Pacific rail-
road.
There are two industries in Wilson
which bid fair to develop into mann
moth proportions. One is the pigeon
farm of DR.. A. z. O'Donnel1, the other
the raising and breeding of Shetland
ponies by c. r. Je1lison. The pigeon
farm has 1,50O birds. DR.. O'Donnell
has been in the industry the last four
years. and every year he has increased
his stock 1t has proved beneficial
from a financial standpoint The sales
of birds now run from $175 to $500 a
month. The shipment of squads to
Chicago and other eastern cities
amount to ten dozen u week. The best
of the young birds are saved for stock
birds. The farm clears a good profit
The Shetland pony ranch of C. r.
Je1lison is only in its infancy. 1t is the
intention of the owner to increase the
stock as fast possible, believing that
it will build up and in time become a
valuable industry for Wilson and this
corner of the state. He now has a
dozen of beautiful ponies of various
colors.
Wilson's two banks are bullying out

MODERN
WAR TAUGHT TO
FRENCH CHILDREN
(By Associated Press.)

PARIS, April 30.-The history Of the
war is being taught to the children of
France as it goes on. By order of the
minister of public instruction the
schools have observed a patriotic day
Every teacher talked about the war
and brought out the patriotic charac-
ter of the conflict from the French
standpoint. There followed Belgian
day devoted to King Albert's heroic
attitude, a Serbian day, and a day con-
secrated to the praises of the cele-
brated 3-inch field gun.
Instead of distracting the minds Of
the children from school work. the
war has been made to heighten it's
interest and the attendance has been
normal throughout the winter The
greatest difficulty was the necessity OF
finding new quarters for the primary
classes, most of the school-houses
having been utilized by the army for
barracks and hospitals, but this has
been overcome.
The details of instruction in matters
pertaining to the war are left to the
discretion of the teachers. Some of
them read and comment upon the Of
fetal communiques. Others read the
exploits of officers and men as dis
closed by the citations in the orders
of the day, and many letters sent from
the front by soldiers of the vicinity
are read. 1t is often the soldier in
person who tells the little ones of his
experiences, for many teachers, dis
abled for further service in the army,
have returned to their school duties.
Sometimes it is a soldier that has
never been a pedagogue who relates
his experiences.
