WINTER, News Editoz .+=—s TELEPHONE 922-823 s, /NEW IMPORTANCE OF THE FAIR For the Northwest the Minnesota State Fair crowns the summer’s wrok and ushers in the autumn season. As the fair has be- come a continuing institution in-this State, each year finds it on a higher level and with a richer content. : While fairs in some states have been for- ced to retrench, this greatest of them _ all announces new departments, novel enter- tainment features and increased premjums. On its two hundred and 'sixty acres of dis- play grounds will be staged a =_panorainic view of the agricultural and.industrial life -of Minnesota. s It would be as easy as it would be futile to indulge in an undiscriminating panegryic of the Fair. But such an attempt has be- come unnecessary, for this great institution has made its way by merit which each year finds better than the previous one. . The State Fair is now.a firmly established and well recognized force in the economic and educational life of this Commonwealth. There ‘are, however, several new elements that give added significance this year to all that the Fair brings. Minnesota has launch- . ed out on a campaign for good roads and parks that promise to transform its_rural life and to bind cities and country together in closer relations. The State Fair will, no doubt, take advantage of its - opportunity to display the machinery, . the inventions, and the new vision that makes:this revolu- tionary progress possible,not only in farm operations but in the community life 6f the:o State. ] \ Again Minnesota is rapidly passing from the earlier practice of solid crops:to diver-:. | sified farmnig and dairying, The ' import- ance of this movement concérns not only farmers but every householder and citizen. The care of stock ;and their breeding, the'~ processes of dairying, the problems.of mar- keting and manufacturing have taken-em« unusual importance. In the light of these new movementsthe State Fair takes on a larger significance than ever. As an exhibit an_entertainment with many new features it éxcels, but’its service reaches much deeper. - The State Fair is the project method of setting: forth the forces and processes now in o’pgmtion ..into a stamping mill for nine hours a day, - or that night watchman who, has.climbed. sota up to new levels of agricultural and industrial " produetion. In this sense it contains much in little; it compresses worlds of fact and promise into “a week. It behooves every citizen of Minnesota to acquaint himself with the progress taking place in this state along many lines. And the State Fair is the institution above all others that objectifies and makes concrete the basic life of Minnesota in transition. Every.good citizén of the Northwest owes it to: Mimself to atter 3 the Fair.—Minne- Minnesota Fede This is'an occasion, when we should look, well, act the part and do 6ur best. = Our streets ,alleys, yards and lawns should be made to appear dressed up for this occa- sion. ~ ‘Most of us plan to wear our best glothes and many are planning on secur- ing new ones. Our merchants have looked forwarad to-this event and have prepared their stores ac- cordingly. You will find them ready and . willing to supply you with wearing ap- parel, because their stocks are complete, consisting of the very latest at prices that most cities can not duplicate. Miss Stanton, secretary of the Bemidji ‘Association announces in her second let- ter that the assoriation members will as- gist the local Women’s Club by helping en- tertain and cordially greeting all visitors. This is just another opportunity when we can show off a bit, and thereby convince our guests that the reputation Bemidji has acquired as a hgst, is a most deserving one, 5 .. - THE NORTHERN FIRE SCOURGE Under the above caption, the * Minne- apolis Tribune of August 30 contained a lead editorial telling about the manner in which the fgrest fires are started and that firebugs were largely responsible: - The editorial was good as far ag it went, but it failed to admit that the front page streamers given over to telling the world about the recent bon-fires over on the range, were unwarranted. g ; We believe the Tribune makes every.en- deavor to get at the truth and that it will be one of the first newspapers to tell its readérs that the truth regarding the recent fires in the .vicinity of the range was de- cidely exaggera§ted, r # § WHO HAS THE NERVE Wonder what city paper will be the first one to admit that the glaring headlines given to bogus forest fire stories in North- ern Minnesota were unwarranted? We suggest they get an official statement from State Forester Cox, so that the truth may reach their readers in as forceful a man- ner as did the exaggerated reports. §—§ > When your task feels monotonous, think of the brass worker that feeds slips of brass almost enough stairs to have reached the 5 moon, ringing his clock over-a ten story. building at night, and sleeping away good sunlight for the past twenty-five years.
