EXHIBITS SHOW BIG PROGRESS (From a Staff Corespondent.) LINCOLN, Sept. 8.—(Special.)—Tomor- row will be Omaha day at the state fair and Secretary Mellor is looking for the grounds to be crowded with more than 60,000 Nebraskans and their friends. The program will be one of the best of the week and the Omaha visitors may rest assured that If the weather is good they will spend a mighty interesting time. Crowds began arriving at the grounds early this morning and prospects looked good for a’ big attendance, but about noon & thundershower came up driving the people to the sheiter of the bulldings and in all probability being responsibie for thotsands staying away. The sun broke forth about 2 o'clock and the crowd proceeded to enjoy themselves. Ex-Congressman Fowler of Illinols visited the grounds in the afternoon, ac- companied by Governor Morehead and was an interested visitor at the differ- ent departments and was especially taken with the agricultural exhibits Fowler Likes Nebraak “You may sald the congressman to The Bee, “that I think Nebraska is one of the most wonderful agricultural states In the country and its people & mighty industrious people. This ls my first visit to the state, that is to stop oft. 1 have passed through before and 1 have been struck with its beauty, but 1 want to say that I had no idea that its was such a wonderful state.” The honey display is itnercsting. One entire bullding is given over to an ex- hibition of the sweet stuff and the lit- tle bees, who are responsible for its man- ufacture, Another Interesting display s that of the Handcraft furniture, the reed furni- ture made at the state penitentiary, by the state’s convicts. Manager Eastman of the company has charge of the display and has made a most interesting exhibit, Disbrow, Wild Bill Endicott, Kilpat- rick, and half a dozen more drivers of automoblies, who have entered for the automobile races on Friday and Satur- day, are already on the grounds, so it is assured that the crowds will see some real racing on those two days.

Dairy Exhibit Fine. “Datry, Peace and rPosperity’’ is the sign which adorns the dairy exhibit at the state fair in the old agricultural buflding. “Nations Engaged in Dairying Are at Peace with the World,” is another. The dairy exhibit this year is along the lines of educating the farmer to keep & complete record on each of his cows, #0 that he will know at all times whether each animal is a paying proposition. In other yearsthe best cows at the state a| ricultural farm have been brought in and placed on exhibition, but this year five common cows taken promiscuously have been placed on exhibition and a dally record of their output of milk is taken. The first day ‘‘Beauty” gave a profit over the expense of feeding of M cents, “Spot” made & loss of 1 cent, “Ruffy” lost 4 cents, ‘‘Blackie” gave a profit of i1 cents and annette” turned in a profit of 12 cents. Modern Dairy Show, The display shows a modern dairy, which can be put in on any farm and s recommended for use. A small gasoiine engine pumps the water and runs the cream separator. The water is.pumped into & tank in which is kept the cans of cream and milk and runs slowly out into the watering tank or any other place. in this tank are kept cans which hold butter and other things which the good housewife may wish to keep eool’ and thus fill the place of the icebox at the same time that it is acting as a cooler for the cream and milk, Calves Fed on Skim Milk. Four calves are on exhibition brought up entirely on skim ‘milk, fed to the ani- mals when it is fresh from the separator. The calves are a husky looking bunch and do not appear to have missed the best part of the milk. One Is 9 months old and welghs 646 pounds, another 7 months old and weighs 457 pounds, another § months old and weighs 2 pounds and one 7 months old weighs 708 pounds. A butter statute of Uncle Sam and the record-breaking cow, La May, which It took 860 pounds of butter to make, occupy the center of the dairy exhibit in a big eooler made of glass. The walls of the exhibit are covered with signs giving information to the pub- lic, who are Informed that “Omaha makes the most butter of any city in the world™ “Lincoln has the largest creamery in the world,” *“Nebraska has 700,000 dairy cows™ and “Nebragks produces 54,000,000 pounds of butter yearly." Like Umiversity Exhibit, The university exhibit tn the old horti- cultural hall is another place where visit- ors appear to like to go. The bullding was turned over to the university people last year and with a year for getting ready they have put on a wonderful ex- hibit, Including a wireless apparatus in operation. Dr. Condra is present with his picture show and keeps the crowds entertalned. The hospital corps, under command of Major Spellman, has fortunately not had very much to do so far. Stomach trouble and lke allments have been the only | cases brought to the attention of the hos- pital corps, the regular corps of the Ne- braska National Guard. A detachment of the corps has just returned from the na~ tional school of instruction, and if any. body wants to get sick they can fell assured that they will be attended to in the latest sclentific and approved man- ner by the major and his assistants. De Lioyd Thompson exceeded all former flights, today ascending neerly 10000 feet and going out of sight behind the clouds. He then came down In a serfes of double somersaults, concluding with a spiral shoot to the ground with his motor turned of Thompson and Barney Oldfield, the automobile driver, again thrilled the crowd with a record-braeking race be- tween almhip and automobile a couple of times around the track. Several dopartments st the state house Nebraska * headquarters on the grounds, the labor bureau at agricultural hall, the state veterinarian at the live stock colll- seum, the food department at the dairy buflding and the game and fish depart ment at the fisheries bullding.
