INTERESTING EXHIBIT AT THE
ARMORY-CORN DISPLAY is
IMMENSE - BOOTHS TASTE
FULLY ARRANGED - INTER-
ESTING TALKS ON FARM TOP
les.

The big Mid-winter fair opened in
this city Monday and thousands of
farmers from all sections Of the north
west have been in attendance during
the week. While the exceedingly cold
weather during the early part Of the
week kept many of the farmers at
home and interfered somewhat with
the bringing in of the exhibits, the
display of farm products is excellent,
and a revelation to those who hardly
realized what our farmers were cap
able of producing on our fertile North
Dakota farms.
Large crowds have been in attend
ance during the latter part of the
week and the affair is huge success
in every detail.
The big display of corn is sur
prise to everybody. Never before in
this section of the state has there been
such a vast amount Of good corn on
exhibition. The whole display looks
like one immense corn show. Nearly
every booth is adorned with big ears
Of the various varieties that do so we'll
in this section. Farmers have taken
4 great deal of interest in growing
corn and last year the variety was
better than in any preceding year.
Farmers have learned to breed up the
seed and everywhere we hear farmers
expressing themselves as intending to
put in a great deal larger acreage
than ever next year.
D. S. Hollenga, secretary of the As
ISOLATION of Commerce, who has had
almost complete charge of the big
show, is the busiest man in North Da-
kota this week. Mr.. Hollenga has
worked untiringly and deserves much
credit for the success of this fair. It's
hard work and we'll Mr.. Hollenga
knows it.
Each evening a concert has been
given at the Armory and some form
of entertainment in the evening.
Thousands of our town people have
spent their evenings there.
Each day an interesting program
has been rendered for the women at
the public library, the program as
published last week being carried out.
Mr.. Haney, Of the international
Harvester Co., spoke this afternoon
a the growing of corn to large
crowd.
Thomas Cooper, who heads the Bet

ter Farming movement IN the state,
spoke at the Grand this afternoon.
Jay w. Bliss, of Bismarck, spoke at
a Good Roads meeting at the court
house this evening.
An account of the Boys Short
Course being held this week, appears
elsewhere in this issue.
The exhibit of stock is not as large
as a year ago, but some very fine ami
mails are on exhibition in the base
ment of the Armory.
The Armory presents a brilliant ap-
pearance, especially at night, with the
myriads of electric lights. The plans
for the various booths were drawn
by R. B. Stacy-Judd, the architect,
who has done some especially good
work.
The silver medal, offered by the
Winters Jewelry Co., for the best dec
Grated booth, was won by Eby &
Young with their display of Buick
automobiles. Three 1915 models are
on display, the C-55, $3.50; the C-37,
$1245, and the C.25, $3.50. Mr.. and
Mrs. Eby, w. s. Young Of Surrey, w.
R. Stephen, of Minneapolis, sales man.
ager for the Pence Co., and c. E.
Walker of Minneapolis, are in charge
of the booth. A motor from C-37
car is being used for demonstration
purposes, the crank case being drop
ped to show the oiling system. Mr.
Stephen says the exhibit is the finest
he has seen at any of the shows.
A. A. Robinson has a very attrac-
tive booth, showing great assortment
of seeds of various kinds. Mr.. Robin
son does a very large business in
seeds each year. His booth is decorat-
ed with splendid corn, two immense
pillars of corn at the corners. This
is not only good advertisement for
Mr.. Robinson's own business, but fo1
Ward county as well. Some of the
corn upon which J. J. Brand took first
premium at the Fargo show, is on dis
play at the Robinson booth. Mr.
Brand disposed of eight ears Of the
prize corn to one party today for a
dollar an ear.
The Roell Hardware Co. has one of
the neatest and best arranged booths
Of the entire fair. 1t represents a
kitchen, on one side of which is a fire
place, showing the methods of cooking
in the early days, while on the other
appears one of the famous Roell five
year guaranteed ranges, kitchen cab
met and modern plumbing.

things that sheep cannot stand. The
