State Fairs last year know what a
gripping sensation it produces on the
spectators Auto polo combines more
elements of danger, interest and eX-
element than any other sport. Foot
ball, bull fighting, hockey, MOTORCYCLE
ing, aeToplaning and auto racing are
tame by comparison. 1t is positively
the most exciting sport of modern
times and is everything that has been
said of it-and more. The equipment
includes four auto polo cars and
drivers, seventy-eight feet steel trans
portation car, champion malletmen
and a substitute man or part to meet
any emergency. There are no delays;
no fakes; no waiting-plenty of re-
pairs, and mechanics to eliminate un-
pleasant delays. Fennimore is, per-
haps the only town in the state that
has booked this great act. Yes, it cost
some money to get it, more even than
an airship, but the Big Day association
are out to get the best there is.

BULL FIGHT IN JUAREz
Americans Attended First Affair Since

first time since "Pacho'' Villa s

including several Ell Paso society girls,
attended the brutal affair. They We're
accorded passive respect. 1t was to
Gull American dollars that the Mexi-
can authorities promised the
"gringos' adequate protection. A
company of Carranzista soldiers
guarded the section of the big con-
crete ring assigned to them.
The fight was amateurish and
hence unusually sickening Before
the second bull was dispatched prac-
tical1y all Americans had departed
But the Mexican howled out their ex-
cess of glee until the last. General
Francisco Gonzales, Carranzista COM
mander in Juarez, and Senior Andreas
Garvia, Mexican consul in Ell Paso,
occupied the box of honor. Surround
ing them were a dozen women of
Mexico's aristocracy deliberately cos
tuned in the picturesque style of
their country.
Bull fighting in Mexico was pro-
hibited by First Chief Carranza a year
ago. Special permission for the
Juarez fight was obtained from Cen
eral Jacinto Trevino at Chihuahua

cars but there seems little chance to
get them very soon. Large piles of
wheat are lying all along the route of

Many farmers who have adequate
storing facilities would sell their grain
at the present price if cars were avail
able. The local Equity union esti-
mated that the crop would be harvest
ed by the middle of this week. The
past dry weather has been ideal for
threshing and the machines have lost
no time since starting.
The wheat in this county will aver
age about ten bushels to the acre but
with high test and far better price the
farmers will realize nearly as much as
last year on the crop. Several ma

the farmers are forced to quit thresh-

there were many empty cars in the
