GRAND PRIZE
AWARDED ARKANSAS.
Horticultural Exhibit of Our
State Carries Off Sweep
Stake Honors at World’s
Fair.
St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 29.—The
jury of awards in the Horticul
ture department has awarded to
Arkansas the grand prize for her
fruits and one special gold medal
for being the only state having
its fruit display completely in
stalled on the opening day of the
fair. Eight other gold medals,
forty-seven medals and 141 i
bronze medals are awarded to;
Arkansas fruit-raisers. |
Arkansas apples have attract
ed world-wide attention, and it
is generally conceded that the
state has been better advertised
than any other exhibiting at the
fair. This is caused by the va
riety. abundance and quality of
Arkansas fruits. While Arkan- ^
sas has beat the world on big ap- (
pies, it has also won laurels on
apples which are excelled for
eating. The exhibits of Arkan- j
sas have occupied a prominent j
place in the Horticultural build- j
ing.

SNAKE RIVER VALLEY, j
—
The largest irrigation enter
prise in America is located in the
rich Snake River valley of Idaho,
which has been reclaimed
through man’shandi-work alone.,
In inis vaiiey which is now com
fortably settled, there remains
270,000 acres of land belonging
to the state of Idaho, which is j
under the Twin Falls irrigation
canals and open to settlement.
This land is among the richest in
America, as experiments have
proved. Potatoes here yield 200
to 400 bushels to the acre of
large size and fine variety. Wheat
yields from 40 to 70 bushels to
the acre with an average weight!
of 63 pounds per bushel. Three
crops of alfalfa are raised each i
season in the Snake River valley.
The climate is superb and of
great value as a tonic for mind j
—————————————————— '
and body. Home-seekers’ low
rates to the Snake River valley
are in effect via Union Pacific,
the only direct route. Why not
visit this district in person and
fully realize its great possibili
ties? For full information ad

KEYSTONE OF
Kimball Piano
STRUCTURE. 1
The sale of the Kimball Piano is the keystone of its unsurpassable quality, the founda" I
tion of its great musical worth, the cause of its popularity with artists and musicians. Perfect I
piano,scale-making is a mathematical problem figured out by sound waves to the merest fraetiea l7
ef a second. Not all piano makers strive for perfection along this line I many making no pre- I
tease), but out of the few who have nearly reached the goal, ■
Kimball is Prominent. [
One of the most perfect musical scales is displayed in the cultivated human voice. An 1
imperfect scale piano is like a person who cannot sing correctly—it’s worse because all do not
claim to sing. It costs money to cultivate the voice, it costs more money to perfect a piano
scale. The cost to produce a perfect Kimball scale bas been no less than that of other ef the
recognized artistic pianos of the world, yet because of the advantages of the largest eutpfit
imam any taster. we are able to sell the Kimball at a very mcoerui* price, tsalfiyi«»tiitrtsM*
The Kimball System and easy payment plan brings it within reach of all.
