BARNE 8 SHOW COMING

THE Show That's Different" is a
term given by many prominent critics
to the AL G.. Barnes three-ring wild
animal circus. Just why this show is
different can be understood when II
Is known that the program presented
completely upset the conventional in
circusdom for the reason that the en-
tire entertainment is given by edu-
Gated wild and domestic animals.
Over 600 OF these animal-actors are
comprised In the Barnes troupe, the
animals do everything that the hui
man circus performer has been doing
Juggling. balancing, high jumping
and diving, acrobates, posing, dane
ing, drills, ball playing. bareback rid
ing, tumbling, etc. are are part Of
the things they do. Their proficiency
Is a. remarkable sight to witness. The
Barnes circus also bears the distinc
ton of being the original and larg
est wild animal show in the world
The cleanliness and moral tenor o.
its entertainment and business con
duct likewise add TO the reasons o.
why the show is different. :
The new. glittering. mile-iong
four-band street parade is presented
to the public at 10:30. Two perform

MERIDIAN's WOOL OUTPUT

l.. s. Durham, Meridian's wool
buyer. says this section will send out
two car loads. $4,000 pounds, this
year. and the bulk of 1t has already
gone. This is about the same amount
as last year, but the price averaged
25c, as against 15c to 18c last year.
Asked II the prophecy OF the sheep
men that democratic times would
bring the price of wool down had
been verified, Mr.. Durham said the
scarcity in the worlds market had
kept the price high In spite of any
legislation. and that some wool men
seem to think that without the adj
verse legislation. wool would have
reached the soc mark.
Mr.. Durham says all the wool has
been sheared. except the flocks OF
win Ulmer, ID. G. Muliin, Lacy
Powell. George Pethtel, and few
Others all in district northeast OF
Nampa. These men will shear this
week. The storm two weeks ago did
no damage. and the shaared sheer
and the lambs are in good condition
Practically all the herds in the Meri
dian vicinity are registered animals
thus giving good wool product
which commands the best marke
price.
