THE STATE FAIR.

Kentucky farmers and breeders
should consider 1T not only a privil-
eye, but a patriotic duty to attend
the Kentucky State Fair, September
9 to IA, inclusive. Coming up
through years of hard struggle, the
State Fair has emerged one Of the
most creditable institutions of its
kind in the United States.
President Mat S. Cohen and the
State Board of Agriculture deserve
unlimited praise for securing the
largest premium list that has ever
been offered at the Fair, especially at
this time. The prize list of SIS, 900
announced for beef cattle and the
fatted and feeding class and also the
$40, saddle horse stake are rec
ord-breakers, and if we are not mis-
taken these are the largest premiums
ever offered at any State Fair.
Not only should an institution of
the educational value of the State
Fair be supported, but it is the duty
of every farmer and breeder to take
advantage of the opportunity of get
ting in touch with what his fellow
workers are doing in order that he
may be in better position to raise
bigger and better crops and more
livestock to help feed our country
and our allies during the world war.

THE NATIONAL REGISTRATION

"Register!"
That is the message which the forty
thousand Four Minute Men of the
Committee on Public Information
will commence to carry to the people
at the special request of Provost Mar
shall General Crowder.
In order that the country may be-
come informed upon the reasons for
and the purpose of the enlarged draft
ages, the press was called into con-
sultation and heartiest cooperation
insured. At the same time, arrange
ments were perfected through Ma
tional Headquarters of Four Minute
Men in Washington to turn this vast
force of organized oratory upon the
vital topic.
A bulletin of information contain
ing complete statistics concerning
the fighting man power of the coun-
try was prepared in consultation
with the Provost Marshal Generals
office. An photographic letter from
General Crowder to the Four Minute
Men explains the urgency of the sit
uation and calls upon this great
army of speakers to use their best
efforts to meet their part in it,
In this connection, the General
says: 1--WE want to inspire every man
with the resolution to come forward
at the time appointed and do his
duty.
Zone of the most efficient ways to
communicate this inspiration, stimu-
lating the keen sense of duty to be
performed, is the oral appeal, face to
face. This is where we are relying
upon the great organization of Four
Minute Men. We believe that you
can reach effectively the millions of
men who are due to come forward on
that day to register.
1.-THE original registration brought
forward 9,586,000 men. This time our
calculations give us every reason to
believe that the number to be includ-
ed reaches thirteen million. 1t will
be Americas greatest effort to COM
plete its army. Your part will be an
important one, and earnestly invoke
your assistance and call upon you to
put your best skill into the task"
