 WILLS NEXT YEAR

NEW YORK, Sept. 1s.-(By Asso- ciated Press. .)-Luis Angel Firpo an- nounced today that he would not be ready to meet Harry Wills negro reavyweight, for year, but that he would be willing then.

All the messages contained congratulations for his feat in knocking the worlds champion through the ropes and to his knees.

In another week and the Fifth
Annual McCone County Fair will be

gong to be some fair.
The agricultural display this year

Every farmer is urged to bring
the best he has regardless of whether
he thinks anybody else has some
thing better.
Some very liberal prizes are being
offered at tne county fair for all kinds
OF products and particularly corn.
The corn selected to go to State Fair
stands excellent chance of winning
some of the many handsome prizes
offered there We had planed to pub
lish some OF the prizes offered at the
state fair on corn, but lack of time
prevents us. At any rate they are
worth all your time and effort to
try for.
McCone County is rapidly coming
to the front as a corn section, and we
must not pass up the opportunity
to make it known to the world what
can be done here in that line. It's a
real treat to see the many wonderful
fields OF corn we have in this county
this year.
The sports program has not been
overlooked and promises to be the

other attractions.
