To have the pains and aches of a

CATTLE VALUED ALh|LH0AS WILL Be
| EXHIBITED ATiMEMPHS TRtSTATE FAIR
Best Herds From North and South Will Compete
for Supremacy at Great Southern Expo
stion This Year

Agricultural developments during
che last few years have proved beyond
question that the South is becoming
and must become the great livestock
producing section Of the United States.
The long growing season and the mild
winters combine to make cattle pro-
dnction ideal In the South.
Every farmer who has begun to raise
livestock, or who contemplates engag-
Ing In the business, should make 1t a
point to visit the TrtState Fair at
Memphis, Tenn, Sept. Is to Oct. 3. The
greatest cattle show ever seen In the
South is assured at Memphis this year.
Breeders OF every grade OF regis
tered beef and dairy cattle will meet
at Memphis at the close Of the fair
season to fight 1t out for final suprem-
acy. Breeders from far and near have
been attracted by the Tri-State Fair
premium list, which aggregates more
than $4,000 alone for beef and dairy
cattle.
In anticipation OF the greatest live
stock show ever held in the South,
three large barns have been erected
on the grounds this year for exclusive
use of dairy cattle, leaving the other
large barns exclusively for beef cat
tie, Indications are that even the In
creased space may prove inadequate
for all the cattle coming to Memphis,
and preparations have been made to
erect large tents II necessary to house
all OF the cattle.
The Importance of che Tri-State Fair
livestock show has been recognized
by eleven national livestock register
associations, which have offered more
than $4,000 In supplemental cash
prizes These include the American
Shorthorn Breeders Association, the
American Hereford Cattle Breeders
Association. the American Aberdeen

Christian Science Monitor: The
Hague, which figures SO often in the
news of the day, has a history which
renders it unique in many respects
amongst capital cities. In the lat
ter part of the seventeenth and the
first half of the eighteenth centur-
les, it was the center of European
diplomacy, whilst for the fifteen
years Immediately preceding the
outbreak of the present war,>it was
the center of the peace movement
and the meeting place of the FAM
Gus international court of arbitra-
ton known as the Hague Tribunal.
It is not an ancient city, as cities
are counted ancient in Europe; in
deed in the thirteenth century it
was little more than shooting box
for the counts of Holland. Count
Floris v, who fourished in the lat
ter half Of the thirteenth century,
made it his residence, and later it
became the seat of the supreme
court of justice in Holland. From
the time Of William of Orange it
was the meeting place of the state
General; but it was not until Napol-
con sent his brother, Louis, to rule
the country in 1906, with the title
of king of Holland, that The Hague
received the status of a town.
The Hague, nonetheless, is full of
history, both national and interna-
tional. Its name is connected with
larger number of treaties and va
rious international understandings
than that Of any other city. Among
the treaties and conventions signed
here may be-mentioned the famous
triple alliance of 1868 between Eng
land, Sweden and the Netherlands,
about which Macaulay has so much
to say in his history of those times;
then there was the concert of The
Hague, signed in ITO; another triple
alliance between France. England
and Holland in 1918, for the guar
antee of the treaty of Utrecht; the
treaty of peace between Spain, Sa-
voy and Austria, signed in 1717,
and the treaty of peace between
Holland and France, signed in 1895.
Then there was, Of course, the first
Hague convention which assembled
on the initiative Of the Emperor
Nicholas II of Russia, and all the
long series of conventions which
have resulted from it.
The city itself which has been
we'll described as half Dutch and
half French, is in keeping with its
reputation 1t has fine streets and
fine houses, many wide and long
and tree-planted avenues, lakes and
canals and well-laid-out squares.
