THIS PAPER REPRESENTED FOR FOREIGN ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICES ¢ NEW YORK AND CHICAGO “RANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES Professor Trevor Kincaid, head of the departmentn of zoology at the Uuiversity of Washington, says swearing has become a lost art. The youth of a generation ago, he says, could “cuss” blue rings around the youngster of today. Professor Kin- caid attributes this salutary change not so much to the influence of the Sunday school as to the development of slang. Slang, he says, has fill- ed the place in the language once largely occupied by profanity. ' The premiums offered by the Min- nesota State Fair this year have nearly reached the $100,000 mark, $94,163.25 being offered in cash prizes, cups, and trophies. This gives Minnesota Fair the distinction of being the greatest state fair in the country, as far as the amount of premiums is concerned. The live- stock snow gets the lion’s . share, $41,398 being given to the horse, cattle, swine, sheep and wool, poul- try, and dairy departments. The agricultural and horticultural de- partments are given a little over $15,000. The speed program re- quires $26,000. Nearly $5,000 in special prizes is offered. Tells State’s Finances Preliminary figures from the forthcoming bulletin pertaining to national and state indebtedness and funds and investments have ‘been given out by Director W. J. Harris, sof the Bureau of the Census, Depart- ment of Commerce. The bulletin carries information for the state of Minnesota, as well as for the- other | states and the United States. The -data were compiled under the sup- ervigion of Mr. John Lee Coulter, ex- pert special agent in charge of the inquiry on Wealth, Debt, and Taxa- tion, for ‘many years a resident of Minnesota.
