General Notes of
Arizona State Fair

Phoenix, Sept. 20. The various
departments of the fairs activi-
ties are being looked after by
their superintendents, men who
have had experience in the lines
they have been assigned to.
Cattle, horses, other stock, poul-
try, pet stock, agriculture, min
ing, horticulture. creamery, edu-
cation, Indian department, and
the two departments that at
tract the people probably more
than any other two. the woman's S
department and the baby show.
See Arizona First" has well
been chosen for the slogan of a
fair that will have such an ag-
gregation of attractions that are
represented in the short list
above. 1t comprises every line
OF commercial and material de-
velopment to say nothing of
that more important section,
the growth of the citizenship in
the state.
Thousands of dollars are an

nually given by the state in the
shape of premiums for the best
individual and collective show
ings of the products of the state.
This applies to every depart
ment. In addition to this it
must not be forgotten that the
special associations engaged in
breeding and developing agri-
cultural and horticultural and
a n m a | husbandry pursuits
throughout the country donate
special prizes.
In the shape of special gath
erings this year the gun club
shoots must not be forgotten.
Neither must the bee keepers
be overlooked. The bee industry
throughout the state is a grow
ing and important one and plans
for greater things than have
yet been attempted in this line
are in the formative state and
these will be completed and
launched now within a very
short time.
And the fast horses. Phoenix
and the state fair track has
always had one of the greatest
regulations in the entire country
for splendid records in this con-
nection. This year will see no
dimunition of the laurels here
tofore gained. Saddle and har-
ness races for the great stakes
will draw horsemen from all
parts of the country, records
will be broken as last year, and
new records will be set that will
put the Arizona State Fair on
the map. "See Arizona First. "
1t is we'll worth it. 1t will teach
people more about their state
than they knew. "See Arizona
First. I" The Arizona Fair is
one of the best in the entire
United States.

That Uncle Sam is determined
future generations of young
Americans shall not suffer any
decrease in the crop of Christmas
trees is shown by the fact that
the government forest service
is about finishing up its big
planting of 10 million trees. All
over the vast areas of the ma
tional forest reserves in the
western states, mostly in noun
famous regions, this work has
been vigorously prosecuted for
several months. Not only does
the government wish to pre-
serve the stock of Christmas
trees, but it seeks to preserve
the fertility of the higher areas,
and prevent the washing away
of the soil into the valleys by
the rainfall. The trees and
their roots form a huge reser-
voir on each hill and mountain,
retarding the rainfall and SHOWS,
thus preventing floods as we'll
as preserving fertility.

One hundred and sixty years
ago, Samuel Johnson, the Eng
lish writer, startled the English
speaking world by publishing his
dictionary, which defined the
amazing number of so, 600 words.
Johnson's dictionary remained
the supreme authority for nearly
three-quarters of a century.
Then came Noah Webster, an
American photographer, who,
in 1923, published a dictionary
in two volumes containing 160,-
900 words. A little later Joseph
Emerson Worcester. a native of
New Hampshire. produced his
Comprehensive Pronouncing
and Explanatory English Die
tionary, with 10000 words.
After that many new edltlOnS or
both Webster and Worcester
We'd with each other for su-
premacy. In 1860 Worcester
published his great quarto, Die
tionary of the English Lam
guage," " which became a stand
ard authority wherever the Eng
lish language was spoken. Web
ster's dictionary was also con-
tinually enlarged and improved
following the death of t h e
founder 1843), and became a
standard throughout America.
Toward the close of the nine
teenth century the dictionaries
of the English language passed
the 200, 900 word mark. The
latest dictionaries contain nearly
half a million words. About
5, 900 words are added to our
language every year.
