ELECTRIC FAN SAVES
LIFE. OF FAMILY cow

If an electric fan viii enable a
sick person to endure hot weather
why won't it help the. recovery OF
a COW which has found period Of
torrid weather too much for her?
So reasoned A. E. Wester, agent
of the Missouri, Kansas and Topeka
railroad at Pryor, Okla, recently
when he received a phone message
that his family COW was dying Of
the heat.
Wester jumped into his automo-
bile and hurried to the cows aid.
when he reached home he found
that Bossy had managed to get
near the porch so as to be in the
shade. But the cow was still alive
and while there is life there's hope.
So the family fan was brought
forth and placed upon the porch
facing the overcome bovine. 1t
was connected and soon Bossy
moved closer to the cooling breeze.
In a comparatively short time the
electric fan had done its work and
the Wester's family COW was once
more her placid, cud-chewing SELF

ROCKVILLE FAIR
WILL BREAK
RECORDS
Carnival Spirit, Officials Ex-
pect, Will ReignMore
Features Added

A carnival spirit will reign at
the Rockville fair which opens in
Rockville, Nd, Tuesday, August Is.
Clarence L. Gilpin, fair president,
! announces. a dance hall has been
erected in the fair as one additional
feature.
THE county fair is no longer
limited to the farmer" Mr.. Gilpin
declares. The farmer will, of
course, be there, but the greatest
crowds come from the cities and
towns. These people are not par
ticularly interested in cattle and
horticultural exhibits. but want en-
tertainment. We win furnish real
entertainment this year
Mr.. GiIpin says that the fair as.
sociation has contracted with Cali
fornia" Frank, to bring a rodeo
operation every afternoon and
night. In addition, there will be
free fireworks two nights Of the
fair.
.'The Rockville fair this year
will be both educational and enter
tanning, he said. "The fair is no
longer the place where only farm
ers congregate. And the farmers
who do come are different than
those in past years. They come
In their automobiles, and they come
to, not only see the exhibits, but
to be entertained.
Thousands OF Washingtonians at
tended the fair last year. The Dis
trict of Columbia is included in the
territory of the Agricultural AS
ISOLATION of Montgomery county,
Md, which organization conducts the
fair A good per cent of the en-
tries in the various exhibits come
from this city.
Other principal features of the
fair are to be horse show, dog
show, horse races every afternoon,
pony races, poultry show, horticul-
turaI exhibit, automobile show,
baseball games and midway
Entries in the various shows far
exceed any previous year. Officials
are finding now that the thirty
acres of ground which the fair
association owns is too small. 1t
may be necessary this rear TO get
additional land.
The fair viii open Tuesday morn
ing, August 20, and continue until
Friday, August %. Special street
car and train service will be pro-
vided. A large area has been set
aside for parking OF automobiles.
