tions, which are the chief agencies
Prugh believes home building will in.
crease soon. Financial institutions
which, through long experience, are
looked to for funds for home build
ing in Ohio, have been handicapped
through the reckless expenditure or
money by the public in wildcat in
vestment schemes" said Prugh, but
he believes this condition is rapidly
disappearing and that the public
now is only putting it's money In
places of absolute safety.
State Inspector Prugh heartily
commended Secretary of Commerce
Hoover for his interest in the build
ing of American homes Hoover de-
clared that fully 60 per cent of the
American people were tenants ana
urged that action be taken to put n
stop to landlordism. In a letter to
the Ohio Building Association League
Secretary Hoover said: Your asso-
Citations, true peoples banks, popu-
larly controlled and locally managed,
have sprung up voluntarily through
out the country. Through the sys-
tenn Of weekly or monthly deposits
by their shareholders and patrons
they encourage thrift throughout the
nation. They have made their as
sets sound and worthy of confidence
Through loans principally upon
homes they are an instrumentality
not only in solving the housing prob
lem, but in developing the self-reli-
ance of our citizenry. 1t is my
earnest desire that the building and
loan institutions of Ohio should be
encouraged by the public-spirited
citizens of every community"

FAIR BUILDINGS
PUT IN SHAPE
Army Of WOTkmGn Employed BY
the Management.
MARKED IMPROVEMENTS MADE

Ticket ofsee at Main Automobile
Entrance Will Be Accessible Both
From the Grounds and From the
Street-Many New Sanitary Drink
ing Fountains Installed and Miles
of Roadway In Grounds Improved.
With the State Fair but a few
weeks away, the greatest task the
management has on its hands is the
proper preparation of the grounds.
The property comprising such NAM
moth institution as the fair naturally
deteriorates throughout the year and
every summer sees a large gang OF
workmen rebuilding, repairing, etc.
One of the marked improvements
on this years program is the erec-
tion of a ticket office at the main
automobile entrance. Heretofore 1t
has been necessary for a person de-
string reservations in the grandstanu
or coliseum in advance to pay ad'
mission to the grounds to secure
them. The new ticket office will BIZ
accessible both from the grounds
and from the street.
In addition, about 1000 feet or
fence must be rebuilt, the speed
barns need re-roofing and the cleo
trical Office must be reinforced.
Many new sanitary drinking foun-
tains will be installed and a great
amount of time and money will be
expended on the miles of road in
cluded in the grounds.
The only radical change to be
made in any building will be found in
the Woman's Building. Here the in
terror will be decorated and an ex-
pensive lighting system will be in
stalled. The present plans also call
for a number of small lecture rooms
in the building and for partitions,
the erection of which will create nu-
merous galleries in which will be
the paintings comprising the finest
art show ever held in the state.

Delhi Capitai of India

Because of its rich history as the
fountain-head of power in India, Delhi
not Calcutta, which was then the
capital-was chosen in 1877 as the
site of the durbar, or gathering of
native kings and princes, at which
Queen Victoria was proclaimed en-
press of India. Again In 1903 Delhi
was chosen when durbar was held
to crown King Edward VII emperor,
and once more in 1911 when George V
assumed that title. On the latter oc-
casion the new emperor announced
that this ancient city of emperors
would be restored as the capital of
India and its 250,000O00 subjects

Founded in 1919 by Colonel J. Bar

This band is educated free of cost

Maysville. Even their uniforms are
contributed, and this is quite an item,
since each member has three changes
for different occasions. They travel
in state, carrying their own doctor

Indians Built of Stone.

Ruins which are held by archaeolo-
gists to be the fOrerunners Of the
Pueblo cliff dwellings have been exca-
waited and explored in the Texas Pan
handle by w. w. K. Moorehead, d.
rector Of an expedition sent out by
the University of Pennsylvania. Pro
fessor Moorehead believes that the In
dians In the Canadian and Cimarron
valleys were the first to desert the
buffalo tepee for stone construction.
Later these housing pioneers, in his
opinion, moved west, and built their
famous cliff dwellings In the Colorado
River valley and other parts Of the
Rocky mountains.
The expedition has worked through
four counties in northwest Texas and
several counties in Oklahoma, and
has observed about one hundred stone
foundations, usually in groups of
dozen or more, but situated In almost
inaccessible canyons and wild places.
The foundations range from three to
five feet deep and apparently support
ed structures very much like the Mex
lean adobes Of today.-Detroit News.

One hundred and seventy three
people attended the twelve culling

week, which is a little better than
the attendance the week before. 4e
demonstrations have been held so far
with a total attendance of six hun
dred and fifty two people, owning
thirty three thousand one hundred
and ninety four hens. These flock
owners have all expressed them
selves as intending to Gull out the
poor hens from their. focks and mar
ket them within the next few weeks
In the focks already culled twenty
two per cent of the hens were unpro-
ftable. If that percentage holds
for all the flocks represented it would
mean that something over sever
thousand hens which have been loaf
ing on the job and an expense tC
their owners would be eliminated
from the flocks.

FIVE DAYS RACING
AT OHIO STATE FAIR
Some Of the Foremost Drivers
Of Country to Compete.

You remember the story of the
Rabbit and the Tortoise? Well, there
was a race that was lost by a hare
something any one with a sporting
instinct delights in. Plenty of thrills,
close finishes and exciting races are
assured for the coming race program
at the State Fair, Aug. 20 to Sept.
3, when some Of the foremost drivers
in the country will compete.
A full program lasting through five
days has been scheduled, including
three races for each day. which aver
age over $1,000 each. The colt races
will be run in mile heats, two-in-
three, but all others will be raced
on the three-heat plan. An entry
fee Of $25 is being charged with no
deduction from winners. The money
in each race will be divided six ways
and the entire program will be gov
erned by American rules.
A total of $16,7OO is offered for the
horse racing, and in addition to this
amount the fair management has
gone to considerable expense to Sc
cure an attractive auto race program
for the final day Of the fair, Satur-
day. Auto racing on half-mile dirt
track is at its best a precarious
amusement, but every precaution
will be taken to safeguard the con.
testants and spectators. Last year
Leon Duray and his opponents raced
before a capacity crowd and, with
favorable weather conditions, the
audience should only be limited BY
lack Of space.

Them Lying, Not Laying
Initial returns from the first 16
counties to start demonstrations in
the state wide poultry culling cam
paign show 1905 non-producing hens
already sent to the block.
Covering only the first two weeks
of the drive, and with but fourth of
the counties engaged at the time,
the figures show 42,734 hens judged
for utility and % percent discarded
More than $500 persons, owners of
over a half million birds, attended
the meetings with the idea of learn
ing how to Gull the home flock.
Poultry specialists figure that
birds eliminated at the demonstra-
tions alone will represent a potential
saving of 1924 to their owners. The
campaign will continue on into Sep
tember, touching every county.

SAYS PEOPLE WANT SAFETY
Former State Officer Declares Thrift
Will Alleviate Shortage
of Homes

p Columbus, O.-(SpecialD-In dis
cussing the house shortage in Ohio,
James A. Devine, secretary of the
Ohio Building Association League
and former state superintendent OIL
building and loan associations, de-
clared that as soon as the general
public stopped investing in wildcat
securities and turned to institutions
of safety, just that soon would build
ing operations in Ohio return to a
normal scale and the home shortage
be alleviated
Our financial institutions in some
instances are short of money to loan
the home builder" said Devine, be
cause the get-rich-quick schemes
have MIXED many communities Of
all available savings" Devine de-
clared, however, that so many per-
sons had lost money through unfor-
tunate investments during the last
year that the public was looking
more and more to the safety factor
rather than large interest returns.

CATTLE SHOW AT FAIR

VIII outshIne the Other Live etocIs
in Point Of Popularity.
In 1920 the Ohio State Fair cattle
show ranked third in the United
States. When the 1921 premium list
was sent to press the cattle pre-
miums totaled t33.940, a larger
amount than the management has
ever before seen ht to give this di-
vision. This means that from third
place OHIO should move to second
or even first. The quality of the
breeds displayed and the closeness
of the competition have always
marked State Fair week and, now
that the size Of the show is 80 far
above the ordinary, there can be no
doubt but that this department will
outshine the other live stock in point
OF popularity.
1t is expected that the seating ca
pacity of the coliseum will be taxed
to the utmost during the judging OF
the beef. dual and dairy breeds.
