also pending with the WrmRwIH^
ers, the father of avlatlonfcnA'invefilS
ors of the aeroplane. It Is probable
that Atwood will be retained, as his
recent flight from St. Louis to the
sea, breaking the world’s record for
long distance cross country flights,
has given him a national reputation as
“The King of Bird Men.” This will
-prove one of the greatest of attrac
tions, and thousands from all parts of
the state will undoubtedly take advan
tage of this opportunity to see aero
planing in its highest art, and at the
same time take in the great exposi
tion with all its other interesting
sights.
The plan includes two flights daily,
in which the aviator will rise grace
ful from in front of the grand stand,
circle the mile track, show all the
thrills of the art, short turns, dips,
cut figure eights, race the fastest au
tomobiles around the course, ascend
to giddy altitudes and descend with
the famous spiral glide. Thus the pa
trons of the Arkansas State Fair will
for the nominal sum of admission see
the world’s most famous aviator in all
the daring deeds ever performed in
mid air.
A TRULY GREAT SHOWING
Of Thorough-Bred Live Stock at the
Arkansas State Fair This Fall.
Hot Springs, Ark.—(Special.)—The
Live Stock show at the State Fair
here in October will undoubtedly far
excel all former years. The secretary
has been advised that not less than
two car loads will come from Wash
ington and Benton counties. Also one
or two car loads of Jersey cattle from
Hempstead county. From Monticello
a car load of Jersies and Poland China
hogs are coming, while from many
other points shipments will be made.
Advices from Texas are that six tine
herds of cattle are coming, and prob
ably more. The Texas contingent will
probably aggregate 75 or 100 head.
The show at the fair will include the’
following breeds:
Shorthorns, Herefords, Aberdeen
Angus, Red Polled, Holsteins and prob
ably a herd of Brown Swiss from In
diana. The swine show will include
all the fine breeds adaptable to the
South. From Oklahoma City, Walker
Brothers will bring a stable of 16 prize
winning draft horses and stallions. It
will afford farmers and others desir
ing to procure the best breeds of stock
an exceptional opportunity.
THE ARKANSAS EDITORS’ DAY
At the State Fair Will Be a Day of
Boosting—Not of “Roasting."
Hot Springs, Ark. — (Special.) —
Secretary Wadley is planning to give
the editors of the state press a day
at the fair, and otherwise a royal
time. He appreciates the liberal and
inestimable aid they have rendered
him without charge to make the fair
a. success. He hopes every editor in
the state will be here with his wife
and children and enjoy the hospitali
ties of the fair association. Editors’
Day will probably be on the second
day of the fair and a great program
is being arranged.
Swine Show at the State Fair
Hot Springs, Ark. — (Special.) —
While the cattle and horse exhibit at
the State Fair in Hot Springs this
year will far exceed all former years,
there will be equally as .great an ad
vance in the swine show. Letters
from prominent breeders are reach
ing Secretary Wadley every day mak
ing reservations of stalls. Three
breeders at Fayetteville will bring
SO head of fine hogs. The manage-'
ment of the fair has a force of men'
at work on the grounds rebuilding1
the old and erecting new cattle and;
swine pens.
The poultry department of the State
Fair at Hot Springs this year, being'
under the management of the State
Branch of American Poultry Associa
tion, with Geo. A. Ashley as superin
tendent and C. A. Emry as judge,
promises to exceed, by far all former
shows. Write for catalog and entry
blanks, and get into the g|yne with
your fine birds.
Teachers who desire-to enter ex
hibits In the educational department
at the State Fair, should write Prof.
F. W. Miller, superintendent of the
educational department, Hot Springs,
Ark. Catalog will be mailed on re
quest. :
The speed department of the State
Fair this year will be above the or
dinary. Fine purses for harness races
are hung up, as will be the case for
running races. Many of the “top
notchers” of the turf will be on the
track. Write for catalog.

State Fair this year. Don’t forget it.

Hot Springs, Ark.— (Special.)—The
railroads, which are expending large
sums to bring capital and immigration
into Arkansas, have recognized the
State Fair as a mighty factor in de
veloping and exploiting the state’B re
sources. They are lending a helpful
hand and doing a liberal part in pro
moting this great state institution.
It response to a request of the man
agement, they have granted a rate of
<Sne fare for the round trip from all
points in the state to Hot Springs and
return during the State Fair, October
9-14th. Tickets will be on sale Octo
ber 7th, two days before the opening
day of the fair, and good for return to
and including October 16th, two days
after close of the fair. They have
promised to otherwise aid in every
possible way, and to provide ample fa
cilities for handling the great crowds
coming. They are preparing extensive
advertising matter giving publicity to
these rates and boosting the big event.
This occasion will afford an opportu
nity to visit the world’s greatest and
most wonderful resort and at the same
time take in all the sights and at
tractions at the fair at a nominal cost.
No matter how large the crowds, all
can find comfortable accommodations
at a moderate cost. There will be no
“hnld-nn-nriPAa” r*Tia rcrorl Tho fair a a
?ociation will guard the public against
anything of this kind. Hot Springs is
a city of hotels, and can accommodate
50,000 guests at one time, and the
rates fit the pocketbook of all
classes, from the most stylish hotels
to moderate but comfortable boarding
houses, while thousands of rooms can
be had at low rates by those who pre
fer that plan.
It will be worth double the cost of
the trip to see the fair this year, which
promises to be a remarkable display
of the state’s resources. Besides this,,
the exhibits of various lines from the
outside, machinery, inventions, art
and science, will be instructive and
interesting. In the amusement line,
the attractions will be varied and high
class. There will be a great carnival
of shows day and night, with bands
of music, trotting, pacing, running
races and spectacular automobile con
tests during the afternoons, a horse
show in the evening with other great
attractions. The management now has
under negotiation an all-week aviation
show, with aeroplane flights twice a
day by birdmen qf national reputa
tion, probably Harry Atwood, the dar
ing aviator whose flight from St.
Louis to the sea startled the world.
The purpose of the management is to
give the public a full equivalent for
their money, and to this end expense
will not be spared in procuring the
best in all lines of exhibitions. Cata
Intnipa nrwl nrpminm Hats will ho mail
ed to any address on application to
the secretary.
THE SCHOOL POULTRY 6LUBS

for Exhibits From Them.
Hot Springs, Ark.—(Special)—While
the educational department of tho
state is introducing poultry culture in
the schools of the state, the Arkansas

testing and the entry must be ac
companied by a statement that the

a systematic manner. In connection
with this, the Union Poultry Journal,
Fort Smith, offers a setting of eggs,
any variety, to the first school to
notify the secretary of the State Fair
that they intend to make an entry
and comply with conditions. Schools
may also enter fowls under any other
class also, in the poultry department.
Write the secretary for catalogue and
entry blanks.
