COUNTY FAIR WILL
BE SOME SHOW.

The St. Louis County Fair, Sept
ember l., 2 and 8. The biggest
country fair in the . state, the
home coming for hundreds of
Mesaba Range residents, will equal
the affair of last year, according to
Secretary Richard Giffin.
In spite of belated spring and
summer, crops in northern Mime
sofa are the best they have been in
years, and judging from the many
inquiries received by the secretary
from numerous farm clubs and ag-
ricultural societies, the fair build
ing this season will be crammed to
the very nook with agricultural dis
plays.
The 1923 fair will specialize in
cattle exhibits. Holstein breeders
from points in the southern part of
the state and from various points
in the northern part of the state
will exhibit. The large barns of the
fair grounds are being made ready
for the prize heifers, cows and bulls
the blue ribbon winners of form
er years will vie with the latest en-
tries and will be exhibited to the
thousands of visitors coming from
all over the northern part Of the
state.
Although the fair management is
attempting to show primarily what
northern Minnesota agricultural pos
sibilities are, it has not forgotten

BAIT EFFECTIVE IN
FIGHT ON GRASSHOPPERS.

The formula for the poison bait
University Farm, st. Paul, and J.
H. Parker, a specialist in grasshop-
per warfare, who have been in Carl
ton and st. Louis counties study
ing the grasshopper situation and
using poison bait in fighting the
pests, report that the experiments
are proving effective.
The best results have been OBJ
tanned in putting the bald out over
the fields in the morning, as the
hoppers are found to be feeding at
their best between 9 and 10 o'clock,
and the bait-poisoned and sweet
ened bran-should be as fresh as
possible.
Sweeping destruction of the hop
pers is not noticeable at once, con-
trary to story just sent out, which
said that bait distributed in the
evening killed great numbers of the
pests by morning. But by the third
day, where the grasshoppers are
numerous, the ground is usually
found covered with their dead bod
les.
Mr.. Ruggles says the situation
calls for vigorous fight against
the pests, for if they are not de-
stroyed this year, they are likely to
do greater damage over wider
area next year.
The fomula for the poison bait
used can be had from county
agents in Duluth, Virginia or Carl
ton.

ORGANIZE ISAAC
WALTON LEAGUE.
CHAPTER OF THIS ORCANIZA-
TON FORMED IN THIS CITY
MONDAY.

At a meeting of sportsmen at the
Community Center Monday evening,
the Ely Chapter of the Isaac Walton
League was organized and officers
were chosen. Donald Hough Of St.
Paul, one of the National directors
was here and outlined the plan of
organization. He also spoke on the
necessity of such an organization in
this city in order to protect the wild
game life and fish Of the country.
With thousands of members of the
League behind any movement of
benefit throughout the country,
something can be accomplished
whereas sportsmen without an or
ganization are powerless to correct
existing evils.
Several other speakers, addressed
the meeting with the result that be-
fore closing officers were chosen and
all present had signed the roster of
membership. Since the meeting,
many have expressed their desire to
get on the list as charter members.
The officers named were as follows
sPresident-Dr. H. E. Newgord.
Vice Prest.-M. w. Peterson.
Sec. and Treas.-W. L. Barker.
In addition to these officers COM
mittee composed of A. ]. Thomas,
Peter Schaefer and E. w. Hanson
was named to draw up a constitu-
ton and by laws and present the
same to meeting to be held early
in August.

FOR TRAINING
CAMP BY AUGUST l..

Secretary of War Weeks recently
made the following statement relat-
ing to the Citipens Military Train
ing Camps to be held August LIST to
30th at Fort Leavenworth, Kans.,
Fort Des Moines, Ia, and Fort Smell
ling, Mimi, for young men between
the ages of II and "a.
"The young men in our camps are
not only of all social classes, they
are also of all creeds. Careful at
tention has been given to insure to
each one the form of religious wor-
ship which his parents desire. The
moral and religious opportunity of
the course is one of its important
features.
cat this time when there are so
many disloyal elements who would
encourage in our young people
disregard for our Constitution, dis
obedience of law, and disbelief in
Divinity, these Camps will do much
to form a bulwark of true Ameri-
canism which will. keep our country
in the paths of healthy progress
which have brought us successfully
through stormy past"
These Camps open August 1st so
that it is necessary all applications
be filed promptly.
For full information and -applica-
tion blanks apply to the local repre-
sentative of the Military Training
Camps Association, the Postmaster
or the Railroad Station Agent.
Major General George B. Dun
can, Army Bldg, Omaha, Nebr., will
be glad to answer all inquiries.

CONVENTION CHANGED FROM
GiIBBING TO VIRGINIA.

Scarcity of labor and materials
has caused a delay in the compile
ton of the auditorium annex for
the new Hibbing High School, so
that the Hibbing Board of Educa-
ton has notified the officials of the
Northeastern Minnesota Educational
Association that they cannot guar
antee the completion of their audit
orium in time for the annual meet
ing of this association, which oc-
ours the first week in October.
This announcement was contained
in a letter from Mr.. Richardson,
Acting Superintendent of Hibbing
Schools, to Mr.. H. j. Steel, Super
intendent of Schools at Bull, Min
nesota and President of the North
eastern Minnesota Educational Asso-
citation. The association officials
had already secured an option on
the Virginia auditorium for the
convention dates of October 4th,
5th and 9th, and are now making
use of this option, and will trans
fer the convention to Virginia.
For a great many years this asso-
citation has held it's meetings in
OuluIH, DuC Two years ago The COM
pletion of the new Virginia audit
orium made it possible for a gath
ering of this size to be accommo-
dated in Virginia. 1t was hoped
that the new Hibbing auditorium
would be completed in time for
this falls meeting. Since there are
approximately 1900 members in this
association it is impossible to use
any one of the smaller auditoriums
in the Hibbing Schools for this
meeting. The officials of the ssso-
citation are making plans for this
gathering, which it is hoped swill be
one of the best in the history of
the association.

EXTRA REPAIRS
COST 100000.
Overlooking OF UNIMPROV.
ED STATE HIGHWAYS
FORCES UP COST OF
UPKEEP.

Special repairs of $699,915 in
addition to regular upkeep costing
$861,1 on Minnesota trunk high
ways for the first six months this
year, with the period of heaviest
travel ahead, is the official showing
in highway bulletin this week.
The 100000 round figure of
special repairs was forced by heavy
travel on trunk route sections that
are awaiting improvement and
others overloaded by traffic shifting
from unimproved routes, according
to Charles M. Babcock, state high
way commissioner. Besides this
large sum, which must be materially
increased during the remainder of
the season, maintenance fund of
$2,148,500 has been set aside as re-
quired by law $1,800,000 to pay
nearly 1000 patrolmen and other
employees, and the balance for bridge
repairs, highway marking and CEN
sus taking, and other like expenses.
John H. Mullen, first assistant
commissioner and chief highway en-
gineer, said the special repairs are
but part of the large outlay the
state is obliged to make because it
lacks ready funds for improvements
to end the constant repairing on
trunk routes which are overlos ded
in present stages of Improvement.
Were the Improvement funds on
hand, he added, the public would
profit by the earlier use of the i'm
proved roads in addition to saving
money.
The 7,000-mile trunk highway
system is divided into 16 mainten-
ance districts each of which was
given authorization to July 1 for
special repairs running from S64,-
100 to $4,000. The largest item
is in the district west of Mime
apolis. Authorizations of $64,100
were made in the Duluth district,
mainly covering T. H. No. 1 to st.
Paul. A total of $4,000 was al
lowed in the district made up of
Dakota and Goodhue counties, south
of st. Paul. The smallest item was
in a group of counties forming a
district in west central Minnesota.

mastery address. He paid tribute
to the Slovenec people and their
customs and citizenship. He dwelt
at some length on the opportunities
enjoyed by the peoples Of foreign
nations in this country and spoke
of the equal chances accorded to all
to better themselves. His talk was
well received and appreciation was
frequently expressed by prolonged
applause during his address.
Rudolf Perdan, president Of the
society also made a short talk as
did John Movern of Duluth. Later
in the day the time was most pleas
antly spent with dancing at the
pavilion, refreshments and other
forms of amusement.
The celebration was a success
from every angle. The crowd was
large and congenial and the weather
was perfect.
