AUTOMOBILES CLASH.

An automobile accident occurred
near Svea Sunday evening when an
Overland driven by Carl .Mattson, to-
gether with a number of his friends,
collided with the Ford car containing
Sigfred Swenson and Robert Johnson.
Both cars were rounding a corn field
south of the Otto Lindquist place and
neither Of the drivers was aware Of
the other before they met. AS it was
dusk, both drivers were driving at a
slow rate and so prevented what
might have been more serious acci-
dent. The Ford had the right fender
bent and few minor scratches. The
Overland however, had the left fender
bent, the front axle twisted out of
shape and the front tire punctured by
the fender of the Ford. It was taken
to the Handy-Lewis garage.

COUNTY FAIR IS BIG
Event next week
1917 Fair viii Be a Hummer
All Are Asked To
Cooperate.

The seventeenth annual kandiyohi
County Fair takes place at the County
Fairgrounds Park next week. The
grounds were never in better shape.
The track is in fine condition. Plenty
of good amusement features have
been provided. The exhibits will be
eceived and placed on Wednesday.
We have every reason to believe that
the latter will be very good and re-
es. Some of our stock men hesitate
to bring in their animals because of
the scarcity OF help and the busy sea-
son. But we wish to emphasize the
great importance of the stock exhibits
for successful fair. The education
al value of having all the represent
tative breeds there for comparison
and judging cannot be Overestimated.
That is why your fellow farmers have
established these fairgrounds and the
county and state has contributed to-
wards erecting suitable shelter for the
animals, and giving premiums to in
vite comparison. If there was no one
ready to sacrifice time and effort to
help make a fair, there would be no
such event. If you believe in GER
tain kind of animals as making money
for you on your farm, you should
make the effort necessary to bring
them to the notice of your fellow far
mers and thus encourage them to Sc
cure better stock and improve the
community. If everyone will do their
share we have the stock In this county
to make this fair the biggest event of
it's kind in West Central Minnesota.
What is true of the stock is also
true of the other lines Of industry.
Bring in the best you have produced
to help make the fair. Don't leave
SXt entirely to others, but do your own
x4@lare to help make it success. The
farm clubs will be serving their COM
mun1ty in the most practical way by
making their community exhibits.
The Kandiyohi County Loyalty
League will provide a tent to be To-
Gated north of the auditorium for
speak1ng Purposes. County Director
w. A. Rice has arranged for speakers
to talk here every day Of the fair, and
it is hoped to illustrate some of these
talks with moving pictures. See pro-
gram elsewhere in this paper.
Some good hol .es-racing is assured.
ma good number of horses are coming
IN. Supt. Burns states that the en-
stries are coming in at rate that will
sgive very satisfactory speed pro-
sgram.
