SOME OF THE WINNERS.

owing to the confusion that always
exists during fairs it has been impos-
sible TO get at all the records so that
winners of all classes can not be given.
The exhibits are numbered, and unless
the records can be had to identify the
exhibitor, ribbon means nothing
The following list is not official, but
care has been exercised to have it cor
rect. II was taken from the ribbons
pinned to the exhibits, and barring re-

another, or a possible duplication Of

County Agent Kjosness explained
the situation affecting the county as
whole. and stated that it was neces-
sary for the farmers TO conquer the
weeds or be conquered by them. How
to do so without entailing burden
some expense was the feature most
considered Opinions were at great
variance, some contending that the
farmers could not bear the expense.
others contending that they could and
must bear it or stand heavier losses
in abandoned fields and short crops.
Methods of cultivation which would
destroy the weeds were discussed and
reference made to the methods en-
ployed by a limited number of men
who were waging a successful fight
The advisability Of holding a weeks
institute sometime during the winter,
was suggested, where the speakers
would be confined to a discussion of
the particular problems that con-
fronted the farmers of the county. The

institute would prove a good thing.

Eyes of the World
Are Upon Detroit

Detroit is the motor car center of the
world. Upon Detroit will fall the privilege
and responsibility of filling the needs of
the country for cars. Detroit made cars
will do their part in making the world
safe for Democracy.
More than ever before are the motor
car products of Detroit coming into de
mand.
To the efficiency and economy of the
modern automobile is largely due this in
crease. 1t has removed itself from the
class Of Injuries and proved its place as an
economic necessity.
1t is the worlds greatest instrument
for both work and play. 1t pays for itself
once by saving time and promoting effici-
ency, and again by providing recreation
and rest and furthering health. The war
won't be won by an overworked, careworn,
frazzled people, but by healthy and eff
clent people.
The mind that said CAN work and no
play makes Jack dull hoy' was great
mind. The place of recreation as an aid to
more and better work is recognized by the
men doing the worlds biggest jobs every
where
President Wilson and Premier Lloyd
George know the truth of that old saying.
Both Of them--even in these pressing days
take time to motor and play golf. Not
for fun, but because they know il is their
duty to keep fit. Sir Douglas Haig rides
horseback every afternoon, not for fun, but
to keep sound, so he can endure strain Of
his Job and think straight all the time.
And the proper light for You to look
upon your investment in motor car is as
an aid to business and promoter of health
and therefore of your all around eff
cheney.
You will find justification of your pur
chase of any Detroit-m car in the sound
and thorough goodness of the car itself and
real economy of its service.

senger roadster model is priced at $495.

Motor Car Is Worlds
Greatest Time Saver

Our most valuable resource is time
Now We must take time to do double work
and carry double the burden. And the mo-
tor car is the world greatest time saver
Use the motor car. Multiply the
hours in IA day. The time saved by the
motor ear means more time for actual pro
duction purposes. This means greater
national prosperity and more taxable
wealth to aid our government.
Take out your pencil Figure out the
time YOU can save for yourself with mo-
tor car. Total up the increased number of
things You can accomplish in that time
Multiply that by the number Of people in
q position TO buy car. Then YOU see how
vast becomes the aggregate good the mo-
tor car can accomplish.

There is one thing every man, woman,

And that is do the thing you are doing

Upon the farmers of the United States
is laid the greatest obligation.

than they have ever before harvested
And of course they will continue to get

The farmer must make every minute

The Milk "Ahead of Time"

For years manufacturers have been striving to produce evaporated milk as nearly like fresh cream as possible. Many of them have lost big sums of money experimenting. But Arizonans have the distinction of claiming as their own home product the milk which leads all others in it's creamy white color and wholesome natural flavor.
