MACHINERY SHOW GROWS
Exhibitors Flock to Show Their Wares
at Minnesota State Fair.

Both Curtis M. Johnson, superinten-
dent of the machinery department, and
Raymond A. Lee, assistant 'superinten-
dent, have been working over time
during the past month planning and
completing arrangements for the ma
chinery show, which for years has
been one of the leading features Of
the Minnesota State Fair.
Manufacturers have flooded the de-
partment with requests for space on
Machinery Hill" and also in the
buildings devoted to machinery ex-
hibits and the seventy acres devoted
to these exhibits and demonstrations
promise to be the busiest section Of
the grounds during the week of Sept.
3 to 8.
One thing that leads those in charge
of the machinery department to be-
lieve that records for the machinery
show may be broken this year is that
considerable interest is being taken
by manufacturers in the food conserva-
ton movement and they realize that
they can play an important part by
supplying machinery which will assist
in the production of more food.

SCHOOL EXHIBITS BIG
Superintendent Howard Expects Hls
Department at Fair to Break
Records.

Repeated demands have been made
by George F. Howard, superintendent
of the School Exhibits department of
the Minnesota State Fair for addition
al space for the displays for his de-
partment, but similar condition has
existed in so many other departments
that the board of managers have been
unable to grant his request. Mr.. How
ard believes this years school exhibits
will far surpass those of past years.
81 don't know where we are going
to put all our exhibits" said Mr.. How
ard recently. There is such a de-
mand for space in my department that
1t looks now as if some of the exhibits
will have to be cared for out of doors. -
Mr.. Howard has notified county SUI
perintendents of schools that they
must prepare their exhibits and have
them ready for shipment in plenty of
time so that they will be at the fair
grounds to be placed during prepare
ton week. He also requested the
names of the representatives from the
different counties who are to compete
in the state spelling bee" during the
fair and he anticipates an unusually
interesting contest.
AS has been the case in past years,
the school exhibits now being pre-.
pared will consist of sewing, cooking,
weaving, carpentry and farm products,
as we'll as product maps, language
booklets and samples of penmanship
and many other interesting things.

Two Days Will Be Turned Over
to Daredevil Demons of Dirt
Track at State Fair-Prizes
Amounting to $4,000 to Be
Awarded.

Two afternoons, Wednesday. Sept
5. and Saturday. Sept. s, will be de-
voted to thrilling automobile races at
the Minnesota State Fair this year
and lovers of the sensational sport
look for the greatest racing ever seen
On the big dirt track.
Prizes amounting to $1O,5OO have
been offered to the speed demons this
year and many Of the best known
drivers in the country are expected to
participate in the races.
An effort was made at the state fair
last year to hold a mid-week program
Of races, but the weather interfered
with the plans and only the Saturday
events were held. These, however,
proved intensely interesting and the
thousands who attended were given
plenty of excitement and some rare
sport. This year, it is hoped that the
weather will not cause an alteration Of
plans.
Although the complete program and
list of drivers who are to take part
have not been announced, race fans
are assured of the best in the game,
as the state fair management will
make every effort to secure drivers
who will lower the existing records If
that is possible.

WOMEN TO HAVE
IMPORTANT PART
Will Give Demonstrations In Canning
Foods-StyIe Show to Be Big
Feature at State Fair.

| Women of Minnesota will cut big.
ger figure at the Minnesota State Fair.
| Sept. to 8, than they have for many
years. In fact a large share of the
work in connection with the impor-
tant food conservation movement will
be carried on by the women, both
through demonstrations and lectures.
Mrs. Bertha Dahl Laws is at the
head of the Department of WOman's
Work and she and her assistants have
been busy throughout the summer
making plans for the work to be un-
dertaken at the fair. Under the de-
partment this year is included also the
public welfare work, such as child well
fare exhibits, home nursing and first
aid demonstrations; the exhibits and
demonstrations in food conservation
and home economics; the patriotic
and public safety work, as demon
strated by the Red Cross and the
Loyal Legion; and also the home sew
ing demonstration and the style show.
One of the. most important features
of the entire department and one to
Which, dUlc dIlSuIlOu lids UcOu
devoted, is the home sewing demon
stration, which is intended as help
to women who must make their own
and their children's clothing. The
demonstration will include planning
cutting and making of garments and
emphasis will be laid on the most eco
nomical methods of construction and
the beauty of simplicity in design.
To Give Demonstrations.
Because of the appeal made by
President Wilson for the conservation
of food as a means of winning the
world war, much stress will be laid
on this all-important work and there
will be demonstrations of canning,
drying and sailing of vegetables,
fruits and meats, which should prove
of interest to men as well as women.
Not only will food values be shown,
but the desirable substitutes for such
foods as are especially costly and
scarce will also be explained Prac-
tical and appetizing meals will be
planned, emphasizing the balanced ra-
ton and economical use of foods
Because of the activity of women
throughout the land in Red Cross
work an unusually interesting exhibit
is being planned. According to the
original plan, this work was deemed
so important that it was decided to
give up the entire center of the wo-
mans building to the Red Cross that
the demonstrations and exhibits might
be given the prominence they deserve.

FAST HORSES ENTERED
Early Entries for State Fair Races
Indicate Some Excellent
Sport.

When the entries for the five early
closing events for the Minnesota State
Fair race program Sept. 3 to were
all in June 80 it was found that the
Duluth Purse did not fill. This event
was re-opened as 2:06 pace to close
August 20. The other four events
however, attracted a big list of en-
tries and the indications are that the
races will be intensely interesting.
Both the Minneapolis and st. Paul
Purses, the most attractive events on
the race program, each of which offer
$4,000 in purses, proved magnets for
the horsemen Of the west. The Min
neapolis event has 20 entries while
the st. Paul Purse, to be run the last
day of the meet, filled with rs entries,
which is indicative of the fact that
these two events will be we'll worth
seeing.
The entire amount of money offered
In purses this year is $4,000. The
races are to be held Monday, Tues
day, Thursday and Friday, the other
two days of the week being turned
over to the automobiles.

at that early age, was approached by
these men, and consented to go.
So daring were his frequent sorties
into the Villa ranks by day and night
that he came to be feared more than
the greater share of the Carranza
army. He used to follow every move
made by the Villa forces, and saved
Carranza's army from destruction at
least two times by his fearless duty
as sentry Of the air.
The death dive" is a feat which
Brown will essay at the Minnesota
State Fair, the dive which took
Beachey to his death in Frisco Bay.
Climbing to an altitude of 5000 feet,
Brown suddenly turns the nose of his
airship towards the earth, and comes
hurting down at the rate of 800 miles
an hour. Reaching the ground he
suddenly whirls out Of his drop, and
volplanes gracefully to the earth.
Brown will fly twice each afternoon,
and once in the evening. 1t is said
that his evening flights have aever
been surpassed anywhere In the
amusement world. He will be at the
fair the entire week.

Officers of the United States
Army Will Appear on Their
High Class Chargers as One of
Many Brilliant Features of Big
Show-Two Events for Jump
erS to Be Held.

Military officers in uniform, mounted
on their we'll groomed and well trained
chargers, will furnish one of the most
interesting features of the big horse
show to be staged Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday evenings of
State Fair week, Sept to 8.
Due to the fact that so much inter-
est is being shown in military affairs
throughout the country and that at
Fort Smelling there are many officers
who are excellent horsemen and who
own high class steeds, visitors at the
state fair will doubtless take advan-
tage of the opportunity to see the
officers show their horses, as we'll as
their Craftsmanship.
This will be but one of many bril-
liant events connected with the horse
show, which, during recent years, has
become an interesting society affair.

MORE ROOM FOR AUTOS
Additional Space Is Provided for Auto
mobile Show at Fair-Great
Races Planned.

Extensive alterations have been
made during the summer in the big
show room for automobiles at the
every indication that the 1917 automo-
bile show, to be held during fair week,
Sept. to s, will not only be one of
the biggest and most attractive fea-
lures of the fair, but that it will be
the best auto display ever put on there.
For several years the automobile
exhibitors have been somewhat
crowded for room. The display each
succeeding year has been more COM
prehensive and it has finally become
necessary for the board of managers
of the fair to provide additional space.
The ground floor of the big grand
stand building, IN which the show has
been held since that structure was
erected, has also been used as head
quarters for the Public Safety Depart
ment 1t was found that by providing
another location for the police station
the desired space could be given to
the automobile exhibitors. This has
been done and the partition which
separated the two departments has
been torn down, the front of the big
building has been remodeled and this
has resulted in vast improvement.
According to Rud Stensvad, assist
ant superintendent of the automobile
show, the demand for space this year
has exceeded the fondest expectations
Of those in charge. All of last years
exhibitors are expected to again show
and in addition there will be num-
Der of new ones.
Extensive plans have been made for
decorations for the automobile show

colors adopted. With the big room
appropriately dressed up for the occa.
sion and the large number of attrac.
