termination of the association and no
expense or trouble will be spared to
bring here the best attractions and af-
ford the people the best possible en-
tertainment. Some of the members
favored repetition Of the airship
flights of last July 4th, while others
seemed in favor of carnival com
pany. Still others mentioned a series
OF attractions and events, including
motorcycle racing with the possibility
of staging some races. The commit
tees will report at the next meeting,
at which time details will be worked
out and announcement of the nature
of the celebration made.

on chinch bugs, but it is likewise hard
on the red rust. If | had ordered
weather for the wheat, 1t would be
the very kind that we are now having.
The rain has washed a great deal OF
rust from the leaves. One farmer was
in the office this morning and stated
to me that his field of wheat which
was suffering from the rust to a con
siderable extent, locked 100 PEI cent
better this morning ovei two days ago
81 have maae considerable tour
over the county and fail to find the
general poor condition of wheat that
is reported. I'm fact. the crop looked
good TO me, with the exception OF oc
casional fields. don't think there are
enough chinch bugs to work any great
amount of damage to the wheat and
don't think the red rust has mater
tally hurt the crop to date. 1t seems tc
me the wheat crop in Grady county Is
in mighty good shape and believe tbs
yield will prove it."
