Several people from other places
have been visiting their relatives in
Folksburg lately, and some of them
we can impress good deal showing
them the sights of our town, while
others from bigger places, why we
mostly urge them just to take a good
rest out in the back yard and quiet
their jumpy nerves. From which you
might say we've got something to Of

since our last writing, and seems like
we never did see the heat waves siz-

Minnesota State Fair
Tickets On Sale
TIME is HERE FOR
SECOND ALFALFA CUT


The time for the second alfalfa har-
vest in Minnesota has about arrived,
and because many farmers are grow
ing alfalfa this year for perhaps the
first time, the Minnesota Agricultur-
al Experiment station is calling the
attention of farmers to the proper
stage at which to cut their alfalfa
crop.
The subject is covered in Special
Bulletin 1O4, alfalfa Aids Progress
in Minnesota" by A. C. Army, field
crop specialist of the station.
The bulletin says:
Cutting alfalfa as often as l,
reaches from one-tenth to one-quar-
ter bloom keeps the level of the re-
serve foods in the roots high enough
to maintain stationary stand OF
plants in a vigorous condition
1t has been found, also, to give as
large yields of hay as cutting wher
the plants are in full bloom and tbs
hay is usually leaner and the stems
are smaller and softer.
"On sandy lands two cuttings II
from tenth to quarter bloom may be
made each year, and during years OF
abundant moisture, three cuttings
provided always that the last one can
be removed about September l to Il
and the conditions look favorable fol
a good growth before winter sets in
The foregoing suggestion by the
Minnesota Experiment station is bas
ed upon years of careful experiment.

ADVERTISING

There was a man who said he did
not believe in advertising.
He is a married man.
When he was young and gay he
had a sweetheart.
She became his wife.
He is happy now.
But why and how did he get her?
He advertised.
Not in magazines or by joining a
Lonesome Club"
But he advertised just the same.
He Showed off" at picnics; did
stunts of physical skill where she
could see.
His trousers were always pressed
when he went accounting.
His tie was of the latest hue and
pattern.
He talked of big, brave things in
her presence.
He told her of the little home they
would acquire, and how it could be
done on his salary.
By the time she answered "Yes''
she knew who he was, where he was,
and what he was worth financially
and morally.
By his advertising" her attention
was directed to him, she knew all
about him, and she was convinced of
his value.
She simply answered his ad."
Both are happy now, and both have
profited by the transaction.
He simply 'let her know what he
had to Offer"
Advertising is simply letting the
world know what YOU have to offer.
Newspaper advertising is the best
way to do that.
Advertising in the HOME NEWS
PAPER is the BEST PARTICULAR
WAY of doing it.-Saint Paul Prog

cents each, have been received by the
State Bank, George T. Freyer and
Luscher's Drug Store which have
been selected as the local representa-
tives of the Fair, and are on sale at
these places.
The sale of these tickets has prov
ed very popular in the Twin Cities,
and last year many thousands of
them were sold at the reduced rate.
The big success attained in the Twin
City sale in 1926 is the cause for the
extensive campaign in the country
districts this year.

Newport few years ago, visited in
Folksburg last week. He was COM
planning some that he's only making
$3.50 day where he works now, and
he can't see how he's going to sup
port his family on that. And some
body remarked that he surely can't
manage as good as his father, who
raised family of ten over in Polk
county, and never did make over a
dollar a day in his life.
Harry Harmon sold his flivver the
other day to a party east of town,
and the way it's been running since
he let it go, he's worried that he sold
it too cheap. He'd feel lot reliev-

used to, and not act so dependable.

care there 15-one hundred dollar
sports in Douglas?"
J. w. Tardy, president of the Co
chise County Fair association, asks
this question in behalf of group of
Douglas racing enthusiasts, VINO are
eager to- inaugurate program of
genuine, spirited horse races for the
seventh annual Cochise county fair,
with substantial purses to attract the
best of the southweSt's racing talent
to the Douglas fair grounds
The races would be part of the
cowboy sports program, but, Tardy ex-
planned last night, can not be provided
out of the regular budget for that
department. A guarantee fund of
$500 is needed and it is up to Is
Douglas citizens to come forward each
with a $1a0 pledge to put it over.
So far four "hundred-dollar sports"
have appeared. They are Tardy, L. A.
Mobley, chairman of cowboy sports;
"Curley and Lester" of Aqua Priea,
and It. r. Scnofield. Eleven more
hundred dollar sports" are needed,
and they are needed Immediately, if
the visitors at the fair, II days hence,
are to witness an exciting quarter mile
free for all, a COW girls race and a
pony express race.
So confident is Tardy that the guar
antee fund will be raised quickly that
he has delayed the preparation of
placards and posters advertising the
cowboy sports, in order that when ad-
vertiSing matter is posted throughout
CochiSe county it can carry the posi-
tive message that the fair will include
a first class racing program
AS the program now stands cowboy
sports will offer a bigger, better and
all-around more attractive program
than ever before including a $500 first
prize in the calf roping contest and
increased premiums in the team tie,
broncho riding, goat roping, bull dog
ging, steer riding, wild COW milking
and wild horse racing contests. The
program also calls for a COW pony
race, and, Tardy points out, would be
rounded out into as near perfect
cowboy program as possible by the
addition of the three proposed races.
Tardy believes that the Is "hun-
dred dollar sports" would stand an
excellent chance of getting their money
back because of the increased popu-
larity of the program, and a good
chance of getting at least part of their
money back. But he makes no prom
ises and merely asks that IL more
Douglas citizens demonstrate their
desire to make this Cochise county's
finest fair by joining the ranks of the
hundred dollar sports" and answer
ing his question with a prompt and
vehement, eyes"

American Automobiles
Win American Trophy
Offered in Europe

In the collection of trophies which
have been won in Ell'ope by Chrysler
cars, one OF unusual appropriateness
has recently been added in Poland,
according to advices just received by
j. I. Hood, local Chrysler dealer.
The trophy, which is fine example
OF artistic modelling, represents bison,
the animal familiar to Americans as
the buffalo, which within the memory
of many still living roamed the vest
ern plains of this continent in herds
numbering millions.
For Is years, the Automobile Club
OF Poland has offered this trophy to
any team of three cars which could
finish it's six-day reliability run with
out incurring penalties, or "black
marks" but until this year none of
the competing automobiles have been
able to comply with the difficult con-
ditions. 1t remained for three Chry-
sler "70's" to lift the prize so init
mately associated with American back
grounds, in a competition which in
cluded teams of IL well-known Euro
pean and American makes.

WALTER HAGEN
GOLF
CHAMP PIONSHIP

CHICAGO, Sept. 10 (R)-Never re-
linquishing lead he obtained with
la par 70 on> the first round, Walter
Hagen today won the western open
golf championship for the fourth time
with a score of 281 for 72 holes over
the course of the Olympic fields club,
four strokes ahead Of his nearest COM
l'petitors, Al Eispinosa of Chicago and
William Mehlhorn of New York.
!, The champion, defending the title
he won last year with 297, increased
/ his lead from one stroke on the first
day to six on the second by setting a
course record of 68 for the No. links
and to nine strokes on the third round
today with a SO on No. 4 course. The
titleholder slipped for the first time
on the final circuit, taking rs, while
some of the pack in pursuit shot spec
tacular golf in a vain endeavor to
overhaul the leader.
Al ESpinoSa made the most spark
ling display, scoring 81, or three under
part, and equalling the course record
set by Hagen two years ago in the
finals of the professional champion
ship. And Bill Mehlhorn chalked up
So, only to find that he, like Espin-
osa, could do no better than cut
Hagen's lead to four strokes and tie
for second place at 1876.
Laurie Ayton made similar bid in
the third round, scoring 68, with a
cerod 80 on the second hair, only to
slip on the ultimate circuit and finish
third with 268 Eddie Held of st.
Louis, who had held second place at
the end Of the first two rounds, fell
off today and finished in a tie for
18th place.
