CARBON co. E[BrT
WINS THIRD PLACE
Takes Thirty-seven First Prizes on
Fruit While Peas and Head Lettuce
Also Win Firsts.

Carbon county carried off third
prize for collective exhibits at the
Midland Empire Fair, Rosebud county
receiving first and Saltwater second
prize. The exhibits, 1913 in number,
covered wide variety OF products
from the gardens, farms and valley
ranches of one of the richest counties
in the Treasure state Included in the
exhibit were displays of Red Lodge
coal and timber exhibits from the
Beartooth mountains. Sugar beets,
corn, wheat, barley, flax and popcorn
were interesting features Of the ex-
hibit- Most of the oats on display
measured about six feet, and the corn
which was raised at an altitude of
from 5000 to 5000 feet was particu-
larly high-grade, as we'll as the pop
corn, which matured at an elevation
of $500. The country in and around
Joliet, Roberts and Silesia is the corn
belt of Carbon county, from which the
corn exhibit was drawn.
Thirty-seven first prizes on fruit
were awarded to Carbon county fruit
growers, F. G. Pickering of Joliet and
c. j. Spencer being the winners. Their
display of apples, crabapples and
plums. wild and tame, and straw
berries was the finest of any county
exhibit First prize on Mcintosh Reds
went to c. ]. Spencer and Mr.. Picker
ing, who had displays of Mcintosh
Leds, Greetings and other varieties re-
ceived number of first prizes, prin-
cipally on apples.
Peas and head lettuce brought first
prizes to Harry Smith on smooth peas,
while The Great Western Seed Com
pany was awarded first prize on the
wrinkled variety. FL. v. Cartwright
received first prize on head lettuce and
Peter VanderIoos, second.
Watermeloas, squash and pumpkins
and fine display of vegetables were
a part of this very beautiful and COM
prehensive display of Carbon county.
The fact that Carbon has no county
agent, credit must be given to group
of men who took it upon themselves to
see that the Carbon county exhibit
was one of the best at the Fair.
Among the most enterprising of this
group were Otto ]. Simmons Art Mad
sen, George Moses and C. C. Bowlen of
Red Lodge. The booth was in charge
of j. E. Mushbach, assisted by G. #.
Oliver of Joliet.
Not the least interesting of the dis
plays was the exhibit of hemp, grown
by an Italian resident of this city The
green stalk, the dry year-old stalk,
broken fibers and the tow ready for
spinning were all shown, and to COM
plete this was an old-fashioned spin
ming wheel, suggesting what could
be done with this product, the latest
discovery Of what the soil and favor
able climate of Carbon may bring
forth.
There was also an exhibit of sweet
clover honey from the section immed-
lately surrounding Red Lodge.

had confidently predicted the day be-

Here is the special prediction which
Prof. Garriott made for this paper on
March 3, 1909. and which was printed
in front-page box that afternoons:
There is every indication that to-
morrow will be fair and little cooler
than today. The temperature will be
about 40 degrees. This will give
splendid marching weather. After
showers this afternoon the storm

Generally fair conditions are prevail

Washington that night, leveling tele-
graph and telephone lines, blocking
railroad and street car traffic and
