The ground plans have been laid
that are going TO result in a district
fair for Oroville next fall This is TAX
ing time by the forelock, but in case
OF this kind much time is required for
preparation. Those interested in the
movement are residents of the sur
rounding country as well as immedi-
ately in town. In fact the movement
for fair originated among the resi-
dents Of the country, and they are so
deeply in earnest that the proposed
fair is going to be one of the best ever
held in the county. Cooperation in pub
lie affairs is the secret of success, and
in this fair movement there is all
kinds of cooperation.

Measuring Machine Is Accurate.

The average person has little con-
caption Of the accuracy with which it
IS necessary to work on some classes
OF machinery. Bail bearing parts, for
instance are produced in large guam
titles, yet in some cases the limit of
error is placed at one-tenth OF one
thousandth OF an inch or about one
twentieth the thickness Of d human
hair. The human sense Of touch is
coarse in comparison
multiplying Indicator described in
the Popular Science Monthly for July
Is very satisfactory device for meas
uring parts that must be accurately
gagged without loss of time. The ma
chine consists of substantial base
Plate With an accurately ground, hard
ened steel facing and an integral
standard carrying a measuring appli-
ence. The dial indicator reads in
thousandths Of an inch, each gradu-
gticn representing a one -thousandth
zach movement Of the indicator stem.
The work to be measured is placed
under the measuring point on the null
tiplying lever. AS this is very near the
fulcrun. a relatively slight motion will
be changed to one of 10 times that
magnitude at the dial indicator If the
work is but one-thousandth inch larger
or smaller than the standard. the
pointer OF the Indicator will move over
20 graduations on the dial. An error
of cne-tenth of thousandth will move
the pointer one gradua ton.

Went With the Load.

An Irishman, having arrived in New
York few days ago, got employment
with lumber merchant. Later he was
ordered to take load Of lumber some
distance away. Having gone half his
journey, he came to steep hill, and
while the horses were struggling to
get to the top his boss happened to
meet him, and seeing the horses in
such difficulty, and Pat standing on
top of the load, he stopped him and
exclaimed:
DO you think the horses haven't got
enough to do without hauling you up
this hill?"
Pat, fixing himself more comfortab-
ly on top of the load, said:
lis that what you stopped me for?"
Then, with crack of his whip, Pat
concluded:

DISCOUNTED SNAKE YIELDS,
Reptiles Head and Tail Each Takes
Caro- of Missing Sections.

From Larned (Kan.) Iiller and Soiler
Enoch Chase haS a peculiar expert
ence last week while taking the logs
out of the old dugout on Mel Hicks
south so. He ran across a. Joint snake
down between the rogs and hit it with
his spade. OF course every joint flew
apart and started to Wiggle Off
Enoch, just for joke, picked up one
OF the joints and put it in a bucket and
lhen shipped behind the logs and waited
TO see what would happen. In about 10
minutes he heard sort of low whistle
and then rustlng. Toe head of the
JOINT snake came out of the weeds and
looked around. 1t then made a peculiar
whistle and another joint backed up
ana fastened on to the head.
The head whistled twice and Joint
NO. came out, and so on, so many
Whistles for each joint, until it came
time for the one Enoch had in the
bucket. At its call the thing thrashel
around In the booklet like all possessed,
but couldn't get out. OF course. with
out the joint that fit. the snake couldn't
get together.
Enoch said the last he saw OF 1t the
mead had taken charge of one-half and
the tail the rest and had gone off in
different directions to hL->t up the mis-
sing Joint. Enoch got almost home with
ms joint when an automobile footed
down the road. This either scared the
Joint or it was its coupling on signal
for Enoch says it managed to flop out
OF the bucket and get away in the tall
grass.
