r. E. L. Knight, president Of the
State Fair of Texas, announces that
plans for the 1917 Fair, October 1928,
are the most complete and extensive
that have ever been made for State
Fair in the United States of America.
there is no department of the great
exposition which has not been i'm
proved or extended for the coming
fair. Several new structures have
been erected and in others facilities
for exhibitions have been improved.
Premiums Largely Increased.
The State Fair of Texas is, essen
TALLY, an agricultural exposition; its
purpose is to gather together and dis
play annually a representative show
ing of the wonderful resources and
possibilities of the great Southwest,
and this in order that the peoples Of
other sections may have an in
creased appreciation of the marvellous
fertility of Southwestern soils, and
the Incompatible advantages of our

to plant tremendous acreage Of it this

best achieved by inducing and influ-
encing large majority of farmers Of
the section to bring displays Of their
products to Dallas, and with this end
in view, the directors of the Fair
have, this year, voted large increases
in premiums for practically all classes
of agricultural and live stock exhibits.
The premiums offered by the Fair
this year are undoubtedly the most
valuable ever appropriated by any fair
association; and, likewise, the total
number of premiums will be much
greater than in the past.
Many New Classifications Added.
In almost every division, and par
ticularly in the sections devoted to
agriculture and live stock, there will
be found this year a number Of inter-
esting new classifications. In the poul-
try section, classification for all
kinds Of pigeons has been devised,
and n special building is now being
constructed to house the large num-
Der Of pigeon exhibits expected. The
raising Of pigeons for the market is
becoming an important industry in
the Southwestern sufficient impor.
tance, in fact, to justify a good repre-.
sentation at the State Fair Of Texas.
The catalogue for the 1917 Fair
will be placed in the hands Of the
printers within a few days and will
be ready for distribution within about
thirty days. These catalogues may be
secured by addressing w. II. Stratton,
Secretary State Fair Of Texas.

SPECIAL ATTENTION TO
FARMING AND LIVESTOCK

Dallas, Texas.-As the eyes Of the
world are looking to Texas TO fur
nish in great part the food Of the
world, the management Of the State
Fair Of Texas viii this year devote
particular attention 10 the Agricul.
tural and Live Stock Department,
these departments belonging primari.
ly TO the producers who will be able
10 bring about a realization Of the
hopes Of the world. Properly de.
veloped, the broad prairies Of Texas
are capable Of raising cattle enough
TO furnish meat supply for our entire
nation. lntelligently cultivated the
fertile farm lands offer opportunity 10
supply foodstuf for millions. To en-.
courage along educational lines those
into whose hands these lands have
been delivered will be n special mis-.
sion Of the 1917 State Fair, to be held
Oct. 1928.
"No institution in Texas has been
n greater factor in the development
Of the State along broad educational
lines than the State Fair" President
r. Il. l.. Knight said, "and at no time
in the thirty-two years history Of the
Fair has there been such splendid
opportunity 10 carry forward this
work. Texas has wonderful resources
and because Of these special blessings
we owe Il to the world 10 develop oui
productivity 20 the fullest extent
That's what the Fair wants 10 do-to
lend assistance that will enable the
people Of our great commonwealth 10
get the greatest possible amount OF
good out Of these opportunities.
In arranging the premium list for
the 1917 Fair especial thought was
directed TO the live stock and agricul.
tural depart ments, with the result tha,
nowhere has there ever been offered
more liberal purses and prizes.

building good teams for Brown for years

seems to be settled in spot where he

to want anybody to take Exendine's place
as mentor to its squad, and many other

cess on the gridiron is to get a good
man, give him full charge and allow him
time to work out whatever problems are
presented. A good coach will succeed
anywhere If allowed sufficient time to
adjust himself and conditions to things as
they exist in the particular institution
with which he is connected. The really
difficult problem that presents itself to
most Of the colleges is to find the good

cation we will allow the caddy fee for
each to be SO cents. That would be a
quarter of a million dollars a week.
Not counting winter golf in this <esti-
mate. for six playing months Of the
year that would amount to $6,00o.0o0.
The method of collecting this money
would be very simple. A member could
have what would be his caddy fees
charged to his personal account, Just
as other expenses are charged. and the
club could forward the amount month
ly to whatever war relief fund it
might be destined.
Effect on Caddies.
Naturally the first objection that
comes to mind Is that this self-abnega-
ton would work hardship for the
caddies whose earnings may help out
the family treasury. But perhaps this
objection has a larger basis in the SYM
pathy for our little comrades Of the
links than in hard facts, since 1 have
found that the amounts earned by cad
dies are essential to family comfort in
only q few instances.
From the playing side there are two
strong arguments for caddies-one, the
trouble OF carrying the clubs, and the
first I have already answered. and as
to the second 1t might be said that IL
every player had to follow his own ball
there might be an improvement in
| ol play.
81 got along without losing very
many balls on the public course by
learning to keep track of the flight of
the ball. and after a little practice
players will develop certain skill in To-
eating the ball If it gets off the fair
way Besides, war economy means sac
rifice, and a few balls lost here and
there ought not, it seems to me, to viii
ate a fairly feasible plan for raising
millions for war relief.
Say that $4,000 a week play on win
ter courses; there would be S25,00O a
week derivable from caddie fees, or
s10e 900 a month. Counting the Ave
months December. January, February.
March and April as the winter season,
that would give a total of half a mil
lion dollars, or seven times the sum
raised by the United States Golf Asso-
citation by Its Fourth Of July country
wide tournament receipts.
Il am speaking OF this as something
not Immediately urgent perhaps. but as
a scheme applicable to those later
periods of saving which come ineyi-
tably in every long war"

.PENN'S GREAT SHOWING
Student Body Has Given 1000 Un-
dergraduates to the War
Service.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, December g.
Foot ball statistics collected by the
athletic authorities of the University OF
Pennsylvania show that with the ex-
ception of two men, who were rejected
for defective eyesight, every member
Of the 1915 team and the first nine sub
stitutes are in the national war serv-
ice.
The record made by Pennsylyania
foot ball men," said NJ. j. Pickering, the
graduate manager, shows conclusive
ly, In our opinion. that Pennsylvania
stand in maintaining foot bail and
other sports has stimulated enlistment
rather than retarded it, Not only that
but 1t has been of the greatest penefit
to the students who have remained. In
addition to the almost unanimous enlist
ment of our athletes in foot ball, track
rowing, base ball, etc. our student body
has given approximately 1000 under.
