The Maryland state department - of health has an Intcresting exhibit. It consists of six tents, with moving ple- manner of. health sugges rs are requested to bring d have them weighed and stand. and here- milksh from the richest milk in the county are soid at small cost.

In jthe automobile department are the newest types of various makes .of motor vehicles of all kinds, ‘and the | children's exkibit of vegetables, hand- liwork, works of art, poultry, etc, is well worth seeing. Fakirs in Evidence. The fakirs and sideshow artists are, of course. very much in evidence. Their tents are everywhere, and the shrill voices of the barkers inviting the credulous to “‘come across” ring out all over the grounds. The live stock exhibit is the finest ever seen at a Rockyille fair. Im- ported Percheron horses, some of them weighing more than a ton, from the farm of Trundle Brothers of this county; Holstein cattle from the fa- imous herd of the Diamond Brothers lof this county. that won high honors in the milk contest at the national dairy show, and Guernseys and Jer- | | seys of other herds with fine butter- fat records are some of the specimens Show Half-Ton Hogs.

Numerous sheep are aiso being shown, and even goats o everal va- rieties are on hand. The famous racehorse Man o’ War is not _without representation .of his family, for his half-sister, : Canows Girl, by Fairplay, out of Nico, is at lthe fair, and the five-year-old filly will make her maiden start in one of | the races.

One of the trotters now at the track has a record of 2.06%, and a beau- ond in the Grand Circuit last year in a race paced in 2.04. Lew Dufour’s big carnival is oc-|] cupying the midway, and, with the poultry and live stock shows, will be electrically lighted during the even- ings. ¥ b Fine Poiiltry Exkibit.
