EXHIBITS FOR
FAIR ALREADY.
Of GOOD SIZE.
However, Time for Entering
Has Been Extended for
One Week.
BIG EXPOSITION TO
OPEN NOVEMBER 1
Managers of Various De-
parunents Have This
Work Well in Hand

Because a large number Of pros-
pective exhibitors were unable to con-
fer with the general secretary of the
Escambia County Fair, which opens
one week from Monday, and properIv
enter their exhibits, it was decided
last night that instead Of closing the
time for entries of exhibits on Sa+ur.
day night, October %, as had been
announced, the time would be ex-
tended for another week, and it will
be perfectly proper for any prospec-
tive exhibitor to hunt up the score
tary one day this week and enter
any and all articles which they may
desire to place in the exhibition. Al
ready the exhibits are very large.
A number of matters have been re-
sponsible for a large number of peo-
pie from comforting with the general
secretary. The bad weather, some
sickness and other matters have kept
number of county farmers from
making the trip TO the city as they
had intended, and it is mainly for
these people that it was decided to
extend the time for making entries.
Mr.. LiIlard will be on the fair
grounds every day this week, and ND
through the opening of the big show
one week hence, and anyone who
has something which they care to
place in the fair will have the opoor-
tunity of seeing the general manager
on the fair grounds. The manager
of the ladies' department, Miss Cald-
well, will also be on hand all the
week, and will be ready TO serve the
lady exhibitors who may see her on
the fair grounds.
A new free attraction, and one
Will will please the male patrons of
the selr, will be given on the after
moons of Wednesday and Thursday of
fair week. E. R. Holt, representing
the Winchester Arms Company,
crack shot with rife, Will give an ex-
hibition of fancy shooting on the
grounds. This will of course be in
the nature of an advertisement, but
it will serve to attract all who have
ever used gun, or whoever expect to
own or shoot gun, in the future.

Federal Trade Commission
Has Begun Inquiry Into
Allegations.
BY ASSOCIATED pRnsn

Washington, Oct. 2S.-Specia,
agents Of the federal trade commits.
SION today began an Investigation oi
charges that cotton buyers of North
Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia
had combined to keep down prices tc
producers. It is alleged that Dur.
cnases were divided in the territory In
such way as TO allow them practi-
caily to fix the prices to growers.
The commission issued the follow
ing statement:
The federal trade commission has
ordered an immediate investigation
to determine whether there is a COM
blnation on the part of cotton BUYERS
of South Carolina, North Carolina
and Georgia to hold down the price of
cotton. This investigation has been
undertaken at the instance of Com
missioner W. J. Harris, to whose at
tent1on complaints have come that
such combination does exist. result
ing in his submission of the matter
to the commission.
This information is to the effect
that for years past in the three states
IN question and more particularly in
the two Carolinas, there have been
varying prices for cotton, often this
cent per pound in two pointsETAOIN
difference amounting to one-half cent
per pound in two points not more
than twenty miles distant from each
other.
"This difference in price, it is al
legged in complaints which have
reached the commission, seems to be
the sole result of the workings of
this combination. For instance, it is
cited, many cities and towns have
practically no live market due to
the fact that divisions of territory
for buying purposes are made, one
territory belonging to one buyer, an
other territory to another.
''These alleged practices are said
to be confined to certain places in
Dictated in the complaint to a greater
extent, possibly than to other points
within the states specified"

they have ever after.
With very young children II is essen

II is the only way Of getting children
INTO the habit Of disposlng of the daily
necessities I'm a routine way In the

In putting away toys and clothes, in

England has divided this country in
to four areas for the procurement of
horses. Four firms have been COM
missioned to do the buying, and the
prices paid by England are higher
than those paid by the French or Ital-
ians. A contract has been made with
the South Omaha Horse and Mule
Company for 500 horses a week, and
at the same point the French Gov
eminent has just placed a $1,000,000
order which requires that at least
5000 Of the horses must be delivered
within so days. Up to date South
Omaha has sent s4,000.000 worth Of
horses to the Allies, and It is expected
that the business will be doubled with
in the next - months. Arrange
ments are also being perfected for the
purchase Of 5000 horses a month at
Des Moines. Orders for horses and
