TANANA VALLEY
FAIR PREMIUM
LIST ANNOUNCED
OFFICIAL PREMIUM LIST SHOWS
LARGE LIST OF PRIZES
FOR EXHIBITORS
The Official Premium List for the
Second Annual Fair to be held by the
Tanana Valley Fair Association, Sep
tember 3, 4 and 5, of this year, is off
the press and is a most comprehen
sive volume, showing the potential
resources of the great garden spot of
Alaska. The fair this year promises
to be much larger and better, if pos
sible than last year. A general pro
gram will be given on the opening day
September 3, at which time entertain
ment specialties open to all amateurs
will be given, with substantial cash
prizes.
On Friday, the second day of the
exhibition, there will be a large stock
parade in the afternoon, with special
entertainment features for the even
ing. The Valley has some fine stock,
and the parade will be most inter
esting.
On Saturday, the last day the fair
exhibits will be judged, and the fair
will conclude with a grand ball and
carnival.
A popularity contest will be staged,
the winner to be declared “Queen of
the Ball.’'
The book is replete with advertis
ing showing that the firms of the in
terior metropolis are behind the fair
management, and mechanically is a
fine piece of work.
Tests Seek To Develop
Standard Mail Plane
CHICAGO, Aug. 12. (£>)—On the
Monmouth-Maywood air mail experi
mental track are being tested eight
new different types of airplanes from
which it i3 hoped to develop a stan
dard mail plane.
The all-metal monoplane, the first
of the Ford series, is capable of car
rying 1,000 pounds or more of mail,
while the “Carrier Pigeon” and “Mer
cury” have similar capacity. The
others include a “World Cruiser”
type, a Boeing, a Huff-Deland and a
Cox-Clemens.
Present air mail planes of the De
Haviland type carry only 500 pounds
of mail, due to lack of cubic capa
city.
Since the three-mile-a-minute army
airplanes have visited the Maywood
hangars, the aerial postmen have be
come a bit discontented with their
100-mile-an-hour cruisers. If the new
type planes carry several hundred
pounds more mail and fly only 95
miles per hour, they are likely to be
declared “too slow” by the pilots.
This may seem queer to non-fliers,
but to airmen it is logical, for speed
in the air means better control.
Control in turn means a greater safe
ty for the pilot and his cargo.
From experiments with the new
type planes it is desired to develop
a more efficient plane to be built
in quantity.
Mrs. Delia B. Chace, court stenog
rapher returned from Anchorage on
last night’s train and left for her head
quarters at Valdez.

UNIFORMITY
Every gallon like every other
gallon. Every drop capable of
vaporizing rapidly and uni
formly in the carburetor, and
combusting completely in the
cylinder at the jump of the
spark.
That’s “Red Crown.”
That’s quality in gasoline.
Use “Red Crown” and noth
ing eise, and your car or mo
tor-boat will develop the max
imum power that its makers
designed it to give.
