BIC cattle shows Prizes Offered at the doming Indiana State Fair Amount to $12,397. SHORTHORNS AND HEREFORDS Both of These Especially Well Provided for in Rich Premiums —Shows and Parades in the New SIIO,OOO Pavilion—s4oo in Prizes for Milking Contest. Cattle shows will be one of the dominating features at the Indiana State Fair, w-hich opens on September 9 for five full days. With a spacious and well appointed pavilion at its disposal, the fair management will go in stronger for live stock exhibitions than In any former year. Both the cattle and horse shows will take place in the big arena of the pavilion, around which are 5,000 comfortable seats for spectators. The total prize awards to be made in the cattle classes amount to $12,397, a material increase over what has been offered before, t gpe of the features of the cattle IhQws will be the parades, and in the class exhibitions a large number of the animals will be shorthorns, for the premiums for them are especially rich, amounting to $2,746. The State Board of Agriculture offers prizes on shorthorns amounting to $876; the American Breeders' Association gives $750; prizes in the milking contest reach S4OO, and the Indiana Association of Shorthorn Breeders adds $920 to the prizes. The Herefords will in number not be far behind the shorthorns, for the premiums will amount to $2,500. The State Board gives $1,132; the American association, $300; the Indiana association, $1,057, and a silver cup values at SSO will also be awarded. Another class in which premiums in liberal sum are offered is that of the Aberdeen Angus, the total amount being $2436. The state board gives $1,673; the American association, S2OO, and the contests that are open only to Indiana breedrs carry prizes of $563. The prizes for polled Durhams amount to $1,310; Galloways, $531; red polled, $532. There will also be a contest for the championship of all the beef cattle classes. The Indiana Fair has few attractions that are of more interest to the women from the farms than that of dairy cattle. The Jerseys, Holstein(Fresians. Ayrshires, Guernseys and ferown Swiss have been provided for by the State Board of Agriculture, which offers $438 in each of these classes, and the Indiana Jersey Cattle Club offered $35 in special prizes in the Jersey contests. The dairy cattle department at the coming fair will be in the charge of Clem Graves of Bunker Hill. The dairy building is another center of interest to the Hoosier farm women for there they not only see the best products of creameries and home dairies, but also obtain a great quantity of information on the making of butter and cheese. Mr. Graves will also have charge of the dairy building, with Prof. O. F. Hunziker of Purdue University as an assistant. Over S2OO in prizes will be distributed among the butter makers. The cold storage of the dairy building will be ready to receive exhibits on September 2, and all must arrive by September 7. There will be a large exhibit of dairy utensils and machinery from factories and supply houses. The Purdue School of Agriculture will have a working dairy in operation. The building will be headquarters for the members of the Indiana State Dairy Association and, if practical, the instructors from Purdue will give short talks on the requirements of a perfect dairy cow. At the fair last year the contest for milking shorthorns received so much attention that it will be repeated at the coming fair. The S4OO in prizes will be paid by the State Board of Agriculture and the American Shorthorn Breeders' Association. On the first morning of the contest, all the cows are to be milked in the presence of the judge in the ring. The milk will be weighed, and this will be repeated morning and evening for three consecutive days. The older cows must produce from fifteen to tweny pounds of milk at each milking and the younger from eleven to fourteen pounds. The object of the contest is to show the adaptation of the shorthorn to both beef and milk production. » In all of the cattle and dairj’ contests, the best herds of Indiana and several other states will be represented. The rivalry is especially sharp among the Shorthorn and Hereford breeders to make the best showing at the State Fair, and it is their faith in these classes that has caused the two state associations of breeders to contribute liberally to the prizes. At the fair last year, Walter Hadley and Allie Brown, two wellknown Indiana breeders, offered a silver cup for the best pair of Herefords under two years old. The cup must be won twice by a breeder before it becomes his property. The Red Polled Cattle Club of America, through H. A. Martin, secretary, of Gotham, Wis„ offers for the first time money awards in this class at the Indiana Fair. In every class of beef and dairy cattle, the State Board holds strictly to the rule that all animals exhibited must be registered in a herd book. It is this requirement which keeps the cattle shows at a high standard.

FAMILY CARES. This Information May Be of Value to Many a Mother in Decatur. When there is added to the many cares inseparable from the rearing of children that affliction of weakness of the kidneys and auxiliary organs, the mother’s lot is far from a happy one. This condition can be quickly changed and absolutely lured by the use of Doan's Kidney Pills. When this is known the mother’s burden will be lighter and her home happier. Mrs. N. Case, living at 604 Russell street, Decatur, Ind., says: "In 1902 I gave for publication a statement recommending Doan’s Kidney Pills, because they had cured my little girl. She had been troubled for fifteen or twenty months with her back and whenever she caught a slight cold, it always settled in her back. She was constantly complaining of a dull aching pain over her kidneys. I gave her several remedies that were highly recommended for such trouble but they gave little relief. I saw Doan's Kidney Pills advertised and got her a box at the Holthouse Drug Co.’s store. They cured her and until this day there has been no return of the complaint. My husband has also used Doan’s Kidney Pills for pains across his loins and they cured him. Doan’s Kidney Pills have my endorsement." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
