a studendous success"
The Philharmonic Band. under the
baton Of Professor J. Norris Robin
son played a number OF classical
concert numbers prior to the dance
and sing. all OF which we're of the
higher type Of music. and were
greatly appreciated. The band is
better and more evenly balanced
than heretofore. The tonal color
brought out by each of the brass
choirs and reed section in the con-
cert numbers savored more OF the
symphony orchestra than the brass
band.
The new community song leader,
Leon Rossman, who Is here to lead
the community sings this season,
gave a fine exhibition of his ability
along that line. The 1000 or more
persons present responded with pep
and snap to Mr.. Rossman's baton.
Mr.. Rossman comes to Wilmington
from Mohawk, New York State. Mo-
hawk is in the heart of the famed
Mohawk Valley. When asked how
he liked Wilmington. Mr.. Rossman
expressed himself as highly pleased
with the community spirit shown
here and remarked upon the way
the community organizations work
together In everything they go into.
While the real "toddle" and shin
my may be dying out. the slow fox
trot and the more ,'jazzy'' kind Of
fox trot held sway with the dancers
last night. The waltz and one-step
came in for some attention, but 1t
was quite apparent that young Will
mington prefers the fox trot
A number OF city officials and citi-
zens Joined in the merriment Among
those noticed was Mayor-elect Har-

PET STOCK EXHIBIT

The pet stock exhibit at the Kansas
Free Fair, which is always attractive
to the children as well as grownups,
is better this year than in many years.
1t has a tent and the exhibit is sepa-
rated from the poultry department. A
permanent building is promised for
next year and the outlook is promis-
ing. Reed Storms of Kansas City, who
has a national reputation as a Judge
of pet stock, is judging the stock and
states that it is as fine as any seen in
this part OF the country.
The number of entries is about the
same as last year. The feature of the
pet stock exhibit is the Blue Dutch and
Black Dutch rabbits exhibited by
Elmer I. Swearingen, 1415 East Sixth
avenue. All four exhibited by Swear
ingen took first premiums. These are
of the bantam type and are the first
of the breed to be exhibited at the
Kansas Free Fair. There are sixteen
different breeds exhibited. Due to-
weather conditions there are very few
exhibits from out of the city. The
rabbits are raised for market, fancy
stock and fur.
Guinea pigs and pigeons are also
exhibited. The success of the depart
ment this year is due to the efforts
of S. A. Seeben, superintendent and c.
B. Harrington, secretary, of the Topeka
branch of the National Breeders and
Fanciers' association of Missouri and
Kansas, Inc.

HORSE AND CATTLE EXHIBITS

Fair association officials. judges. su-
perintendents and breeders are unani-
nous in the opinion that the horse
and cattle exhibit at the Kansas Free
Fair this year surpasses that of for
mer years and is the finest show of
the kind ever held in the state. The
exhibit of each department is better
in both quality and number OF animals
than any heretofore shown. There is
a total of so animals in the two ex-
hibits.
I'VE have more cattle and the quail
ity is better than we have ever had
before" said Prof. A. NJ. Patterson, of
the Kansas State Agricultural college,
and superintendent of the cattle ex-
hibit. Most of the stuff is high class
and we haven't tail end herd in the
show. Usually we have to put up with
a few tailenders, but there isn't poor
one in the exhibit this year"
Prof. B. NJ. Anderson, also of the
agricultural college, in charge OF the
horse and mule exhibit, has equal
exhibit is the largest because they
come from a number of states while
the horse exhibit is strictly Kansas

braska, Missouri, Colorado and Iowa
are the states represented in the cat
tie exhibit.
A total of $40 cattle are entered.
Shorthorns are in the lead with IT'S
and the Hereford class is next with
125. These are the leading beef breeds
and naturally attract much attention
on account of their size. Jerseys and
Holsteins feature the milk breeds,
seventy-five animals in each class
having been entered Twenty-Five
Guernseys, fifteen Galloways and
twenty Angus complete the exhibit.
Two of the largest cattle exhibitors
are, the Turner Lumber and Invest
ment company, of Kansas City. with
twenty-three head of Herefords; and
Simpson and Son, of Muskogee, Okla
homa, who entered the twenty head
of Angus.
Judging of the Shorthorns, Jerseys,
Angus, and Galloways will be started
today. There are about an equal
number of cows and bulls in all
classes, according to Superintendent
AS usual the draft breeds feature
the horse show. This part of the ex-
hibit is made up of seventy head of
Percherons, thirteen Shires, and eight
Belgians which, with twenty Shet-
lands and twenty eight head of mules
complete the exhibit.
There are a large number of Per-
cheron exhibitors but the other classes
are individual groups. The Shetlands

Sing Sing Indian Name.

Sing Sing prison, the stone, or
rather dolomite marble bastile at Os-
sining, N. Y, is rather appropriately
named. according to authorities who
trace the word back to the Indian Ian
guage, and find that it means stony
place. The town itself was originally
called Sing Sing. 1t is beautifully sit
uated on the Hudson and commands,
from its elevated site, many fine views.
1t was settled by white people about
1893.
Some authorities say the Sin Sinck
Indians were whereabouts at that time,
and attribute the name Of the city to
them. The prison was built there in
1926, when Capt. ELAN Lynds took 100
convicts there and gave them orders
to wall themselves in.
In 1901 the town, after several un-
successful attempts, changed it's name
to Ossining, because of objections due
to the association of it's name with the
prison.

The FARMER OF THE FUTURE
is TO BE A BUSINESS MANAGER

Farming is business; agriculture
Is science. The tiller of the soil who
blends these two is the man to whom
the future offers success.
The hopes of the nation depend
upon the development of just such
men. There are possibilities open
today to the boy on the farm
that may well excite the envy of the
city boy, and there is abundant prom
Use that many such boys, with rudi-
mentary knowledge of farming. are de-
voting their mental energies toward
mastery of the subject that promises
them rich returns.
The average farmer is a great ma
tional asset, upon whose real welfare
the prosperity of the nation in large
measure depends.
Farmers and manufacturers are the
two producing factors that have made
our nation great, and though they may
not be linked together by visible ties,
their interests, and the purpose and
results of their efforts, are one.

master of the more profitable methods
of diversifying and rotating his crops
and marketing his products.
Prior to 1897 farmers were, in many
cases, selling their products at loss.
Since then what the farmer sells has
increased in price faster than the CON-
modities that he buys.
The wealth represented by farm in
terests in this country is estimated to
approximate $4O,OOOO0O,OOO About
half this capital is invested in land;
the remainder is in buildings, live
stock, farm equipment and tools.
Better farming means more educa-
ton, and more education means wiser
methOds-better profits without in
creased costs or prices.
There are two ways of making this
education effectively schools or by
demonstration work with personal adj
vice. Both systems are now in opera
ton with signal success.

LAKE Is NATURAL WONDER
Body of Water That Has Many he-
markable Qualities Is Found IN
North Australia.

Lake Eyre is one Of the wonders OF
the continent. The district is actually
below the level of the sea, yet In the
near neighborhood Of the lake are
some fine springs of water that may
be considered fresh in that cattle Will
drink from them. So, too, can drovers,
though the water has a medicinal ef-
feet which prejudices them in their
appraisal of it's value.
In the center Of the lake Is an
island Of rare beauty. A legend Is
that, many years ago, perhaps when
the first droving party doctor
Black's) took cattle through to the
Northern territory, one of the more
daring of the party of white men, I'M
needing the warning Of the blacks
an "op man debil-debil" lived in the
lake, and fed on men who ventured
into the water, undertook to get to the
island. He started away on horse
back, but did not return. The blacks,
who have mysterious means Of COM
munication, gave it out that his horse
had made the island, where the animal
was seen by some of them long after
the cattle party had gone. That
proved the legend as far as they were
concerned.
One of the peculiarities of the wa
ter of the lake is that it will preserve
anything thrown into it. 1t is exceed
ingly buoyant. Stones thrown into 1t
do not sink. Ut may be stated that
some of the stone-the kind that does
not sink-would probably float in any
kind of water, being pumice of the
lightest variety, almost spongy in tex
ture.) -Sydney (Australia) Times.
