AUTO DARE DEVILS
WILL CAPER THERE
Louis Disbrow, a World's Champion,
to Battle for Title in Thrilling
Motorcar Races.
Tho roar of (he exhausts and the
flash of the mighty automobile racers
•« they sweep down and around the

against tlmo, will be one of the thrill-
ing features of the fifth annual pro-
duction of the New State fair which
will be held at Muskogee. October
5. S. 7, 8, !< and 10. Lovers of Inten-
•Ifled speed of the circular tracks will
have the opportunity of seeing the
world's champion, Louis Disbrow, the
•peed marvel who defies the laws of
accelerated motion when dally he
hangs a price on his head and com-
bats with Fate In hlo great exhibition
races.
Disbrow, who evidently has an un-
quenchable thirst for speed, Is the
holder of several records on dirt race
tracks. In his Simplex Zip he has
driven at bullat like speed filing away
the seconds as he has chipped down
other records. In the same way he
will battle with others for the honors
In Muskogee.
Lou Helneman, a former member
of the Marmon racing team, will be
ene of the contestants In the auto
races Helneman Is no less a dare-
devil than Disbrow, When he races
Helneman formerly was a racing
partner of the famous Darney Olil-
fleld. It was from this Individual that
Lou acquired the insane desire for
■peed
Eddie Hearne, the great llflle Chi-
cago driver, Is another one of the
autolsts who has entered In the con-
tests. Hearne Is another of race
(lemons.
The increase in prices of farm
products has not kept pace with

PEARLS FIND READY MARKET
Those From the Mississippi Only
Slightly Second In Demand to
D*ep Water Products.
Arkansas Is the greatest pearl pro-
ducing state In the Union, and hun-
dreds of men engage In the peart
hunt. It is said that tho fresh water
pearl of Arkansas of the highest rlnas
cannot be distinguished from tiie fin-
est deep sea jewel. Throughout 'he
south generally thousands of people-
follow the pearl fishing indiisti..' and
make a comfortable living at It. Up
to a few years ago the jewel wer.lth
contained in the river beds of the
Mississippi valley was completely hid-
den. It was not supposed that the
fresh water mussel was a pearl bear-
er, or that it had any value except for
fish bait. I
The fresh water mussel is sought
now not only for the precious stoue It
may have hidden in its shell, but for
the shell itself, which is manufac-
tured into stick pins, cuff links, and,
buttons of every description. Thej

shell fisheries have for years extend-
ed far up the Mississippi river. A re-

command the highest prices. Baroques
are pearls of irregular form. Slugs
are low grade baroques. The smaller

Bagdad and Queen of Sheba.
The liagdad of the "Arabian Nights"
etill exists, but in a greatly diminished
form. In fact the grand old palaces
and mosques of its prime are nearly
all in mins, and only a small popula-
tion lives where once was a city of
2,000,000 people. A new city la
gradually coming into existence on
the opposite (east) bank of the Tigris,
the site being valuable from a com-
mercial point of view. The inhabitants
cumber about 200,000, and are mainly
Bedouins. The famous palace of Har-
oun-al-Raschild has disappeared, and
the foreign consulates occupy its site.
It ia only a tradition which asserts
that the queen of Sheba, who once
visited King Solomon, lies buried un-
der an eight-sided brick tower bear-
ing her name in old Hagdad. The citi-
zens have ceased to venerate it, we
are told, and the tower is approaching
a state of ruin.

Better Protection
For Your Farm Machinery
It s like burning up money to leave your farm machinery in
the fields at night—exposed to damp grass and soil and possibly
rains.
Vital parts may rust and weaken. Onk weak part may
cause the whole machihe to go to pieces.
IT WILL PAY YOU WELL
to build a cheap implement shed out in your fields to protect your
reapers, mowers, harrows, seeders, tractors, scythes, etc.,
every night and rainy day.
A dollar saved is a dollar earned." Such a shed will save
you hundreds of dollars. It will avoid annoyance, loss of time
and repair expense and add years to the life of your machines.
The shed is quite likely to earn its cost the first year.
We have a large stock of good roofing and "common'.' lumber
—just the stuff for low cost sheds.
Get the materials next time you're in town—they're ready
for you any time—at prices that will please you.
