How to Prepare a Farm Exhibit
flji "W1LMAC."
HOBART. KIOWA COUNTY, OKLAHOMA. THURSDAY. AUUUST 31. U**'-
Again Destruction.
A farm exhibit is no made (or the ] ur-
poae of showing some phenominal spjradic
production of the soil, but to set forth the
character of the products urown on the farm
represented by it. To represent good crops,
good crops should be grown. This means
good soil, good seed, and proper cultivation.
From each crop grown a proper selection
should 1« made at the proper time and care-
fully preserved for the exhibit. Oats, wheat
and other similar cereals are liest represented
in ihe straw. These should l>e gathered as
soon as ripe and tied up in small bundles and
preserved. Alfalfa and other hay products
should be gathered in a similar manner at
cutting time. Where th rc are two or more
cuttings, each cutting should be represented
by a sample. Corn Is the lest exhibit in the
ear. A part of the husk may be retained to
hang them by. Three or more ears, of each
variety.should be shown, and these should 1*
similar* and typical of the variety. Some
farm products are fcest represented by their
seed products. These may be shown in small
glass jars. Fruits that cannot l>e otherwise
preserved may 1* sealed up in fruit jars, pre-
serving in syrup or by photography. In
making an exhibit a system of classification
should 1* adopted All legumeuous plants
should lie grouped together, as also
tubers, cereals, sorghums, hay plants, etc.
When the materials are all together the ex-
hibitor mu*t use taste in placing them. In
placing them one general rule may t e adopt-
ed. Let everything l e so placed as to attract
attention and awake interest Yours,

the catastrophe that overwhelmed Valparaiso be appaeciated. The I

Station, and the authorties have organized a special corps to pull
down the tottering buildings. In most streets it is unsafe to walk
on the pavements owing to falling debris. The public squares ami
principal avenues are crowded with people sleeping in the open.
All kinds of caba and carriages have been requisitioned to sleep in
and even under. It is estimated that 2,000 lives were l.«t in the
earthquake and fires. The authorities are organizing distributing
centers where food and medicine will be served to the earthquake
sufferers, who are displaying examplary courage and patriotism in
their misfortunes. Large parties of convicts who escaped from the J
prisons are committing depradations throughout the country.
