V SaiWw Stove Time is Coming In November you will need a Base Burner — perhaps a new Cooking Stove. To prepare for this we are putting in a new stock of Favorites, because we know * there are no others in the market quite as good. The Favorite Base Burner is in a class by itself. Come and see it and we will show you why it will throw out more heat' and consume about half as much fuel as other makes. IDon ’t put off the stove question 'till the cold' days t come.

RAIN CHECKS CROWD ■. ■ ■ «4 *.»"■■• (Continued tmm o«&» 8.) ler; In another, buggies in charge of Peter Amspaugb, and an acetylene plant in charge of Levi Linn of Bluffton. A very artistic and interesting corner is the dairy department, presided over by C. C. Enos. Here are shown cream separators, churns and the like, in practical use, while the artistic draperies and decorations add to the beauty. This part of the fair grounds is a miniature business city. The Agricultural Hall. Surely no one who visits, the agricultural hall will talk of a crop failure. He will go away wondering where the pessimistic papers and harbingers of the worst ever gleaned their tales of woe —surely not from Adams county. Here row after row of corn —yes, and fodder in the shock —that would put Jack’s bean stalk in the shade in the matter of heightbags of wheat, beans, barley, oats, rye and what not— demonstrating the old rhyme, "corn, wheat, beans and barley grow,’ to say nothing of fruits and vegetables, flourish in ripened perfection. This hall is in charge of J. S. Lower, superintendent. The judge is Simon Summer of Huntington, who is a famous breeder of Poland China hogs, and himself an exhibitor of stock here. He began his work of judging late in the afternoon and but very little had been completed Wednesday evening. The wheat had been judged, however, and Mr. Fred Thieme of Union township was happy over the fact that he had been awarded first in wheat. The vegetable department is rich in great yellow pumpkins, large enough to make enough Thanksgiving pies for a regiment, squashes, straight and crooked necked. tomatoes, celery, beets, cabbage, turnips, and the land knows what else —the biggest and best of the garden, samples that would make the seed books green with envy. The fruit crop in Adams county was no failure either, as the exhibits of apples, pears, peaches, plums, grapes, etc., show and demonstrates the place the county could take in the fruit line if she would go in for making it a specialty. The juvenile department in the agricultural line is quite good. The Culinary Displays. The Adams county housewife is right in line in the fair, too, and many are the watering mouths that pass in the culinary and canned fruit line. There are cases filled with cakes of every kind, description and ornamentation bread, cookies, noodles, doughnuts, ordinary, and "German doughnuts’’—the latter made by Mrs. Herman Sellemeyer, that attracts unusual attention, because of its rarity. The canned fruits—though it is ratner early in the season for them—are there in great variey, as are jellies and preserves. Mrs. J. S. Lower is the superintendent, and has as judge. Miss Emma Gillig of the Old Adams County bank. Her position is surely a difficult one, for how she can tell which is the best from so great a variety, would be difficult to say. A great many of the awards had been made yesterday, but the great number of entries makes the task nearly an endless one. The gatekeepers at 4 o’clock in the afternoon reported about 2,100 paid admissions for Wednesday. The number in attendance at the fair, however, would be nearly treble this, as children were admitted free, and so of course, no account could be taken of the number there.
