ing September and will return in Oc-

The trusts have not yet been able
to corner quite everything. They
have a corner on corn, cotton, cattle,
sugar and everything raised from the
soil or manufactured. But the little
old hen defies them all; the egg crop
has never been conquered, and air
and water are still free.
A campaigner tells this story that
always strikes the right spot with the
farmer. One time a merchant put up
a blackboard in his store and asked
his customers to write their names on
it and opposite tell what they were
doing for humanity. A lawyer wrote:
.'I plead for *11." A preacher wrote ;
"I pray for all." An old farmer
walked up, wrote his name scratched
his head awhile and then wrote :

State Fair of Oklahoma.
Much interest is being manifested
by the different counties of the state
in the county exhibits at the State
Fair to be held at Oklahoma City,
October 1st to 10th, 1908.
The State Fair will attract thou-
sands of homeseekers and investors
from the North and East and any
county represented there will be in
position to show their particular in-
dustries and resources at a very great
advantage. The Agricultural Hall
will be one of the chief attractions of
the Fair. The Association has se-
cured maDy attractions of an educa-
tional nature never before exhibited
in Oklahoma.
Space is being assigned daily in
the Mammoth Exposition Building.
Applications for space are coming
from manufacturers frcm all StaUs
as well as Oklahoma. The attract-
ions will be varied, high class and
clean. The management will en-
courage all kinds of legitimate amuse-
ment features, but will place a ban
on all things of an objectionable na
ture. The idea is to make the Fair
an Educational institution, as well as
the coming together of people for en-
joyment and pleasure.
$250,000.00 has been invested in
nual State Fair will have an attend
ance of over 200,000 people. For
