Hogging Road

Miss Ards Dyer of Moorhead was
bruised and otherwise injured when
the car driven by her brother, Warren
Dyer, turned turtle on the state road
about a half mile north of the Clay
county courthouse, shortly after 1880
o'clock Sunday morning. Mr.. Dyer
says he was forced over to the side OF
the road by a southbound car driven
by Louis A. Holtsclaw. This claim Is
denied by Mr.. Holtsclaw, who says
there was room for third car be-
tween the one he was driving and Mr..
Dyer's car, when the two passed. Mr..
HoltsclaW also claims that Mr.. Dyer
was running very fast and that he,
Holtsclaw, was running only or 10
miles an hour when the cars passed.
The Dyer party. consisting OF Mr..
Dyer, his sisters. Ards and Dora, and
his aunts, Misses Gertie, Clara and
Katie Lobben, were on their way to
the Dosland farm to spend the day.
County Attorney Dosland, Mrs. Dos
land, Mrs. Dyer and other members OF
the party were following in Mr.. Dos
lands car.
1t is claimed by the members of the
Dyer and Dosland parties that the
Dyer car was running at an ordinary
rate of speed while the car driven by
Holtsclaw was speeding 1t Is also
claimed that Holtsclaw was not
watching ahead but was looking down
at the mechanism of the car.
Mr.. Dyer was driving and his sister,
Ardis, sat with him on the front seat
of the car. He says he pulled out to
give the other car half of the road. AS
the two cars came close together, Miss
Dyer called to her brother that the
other car was not going to turn out.
He then made quick turn towards
the ditch and the car turned over.

WILL HOLD MINNESOTA
STATE FAIR THIS FALL
No Good Reason for Calling Ii on.
Says Secretary and General Man
ager in Answer to Inquiries.

Thomas H. Canfeld, secretary and
general manager of the Minnesota State
fair, Sept. 8 to 8, has answered the
doubling ones who wrote letters to the
State fair Offices at Hamline, asking
whether the fair would take place as
usual He said that the fair was pri-
marily an educational institution, and
that it was enlisted in the service Of
the government as a. food training
camp.
Very few inquiries have been re-
ceived since the publication of the no.
tice that the fair would take place."
Mr.. Garfield said, but have taken oc-
casion to state why it should not be
called off this year"
The statement reads in part: There
is no more reason for our calling off the
fair than there is for the food conser-
walton bodies doing the same thing:
We are going to cooperate with all
recognized food conservation organiza-
tions and are acting under the direct
guidance of the department of agricul-
ture Thousands of those most vitality
interested, the farmers, congregate at
the fair annually. The time and place
to teach food conservation and increas-
ed production could not be better"
