The Indiana Stat'e Fair races, the greatest harness race meeting cf the year in Indiana, will during the week of Sept. 2, when the fair is held at Indianapolis, bring out a better class of horses and closer contests than ever, owing to some new rules adopted by the exposition management. Under the rules it will not be possible for one stable of horses to monopolize the races, there will be a larger number of entries in each class, and the fair management will know well in advance the number of starters in each race.
It has from its beginning been the boast of the State Board of Agriculture that the fair races were without superior in quality and honesty. I'he fair board has never countenanced pool selling, and this has meant that the public has seen the races on the nieritfc of the horses.
The purses for the September meeting amount to nearly $20,000. Four races will be given each afternoon, and the purse in each contest, with the exception of two, will amount to $1,000.
The racing program for the week follows: Monday, Sept. 2. 2:24 Clasi Trotting $1,000 2:06 ClaSS Pacing. 1,000 2:12 Class Trotting 1,000 Three-year-old and under Pacing, to 2:25 Class 600

PURDUE AT STATE FAIR.
Twenty Experts Will Lecture to Indiana Farmers. A corps of twenty experts from Purdue University will spend the week at the Indiana State Fair, opening on Sept. 2, and will attempt to make the fair of greatest possible educational value. The instruction will be chiefly along agricultural and household economic lines. The Purdue building, not far from the Coliseum, will be utilized by the instructors from the university, as well as for the fair's general show of dairy products, and the instruction will be divided into the following departments: Animal husbandry, poultry, soils and crops, dairy, botany, chemistry, veterinary, agricultural extension, household economics. The prime purpose of sending such a force of instructors to the fair is to give farmers who cannot attend the university at Lafayette the practical information that is available to the students. The farmers will have opportunity to talk with the instructors, see the Purdue displays, witness the demonstrations—all to the end of making the farms of the state more productive.
The Purdue men will each day give lectures and demonstrations, and Will conduct live stock and corn judging cofitests for Indiana boys between sixteen and twenty years, who have not taken the eight weeks' course or any of the longer courses at Purdue. Boys who enter the judging contest must send their names to Charles' Downing, secretary of the fair, before Sept. 3. The prizes Will be free scholarships at Purdue

SHIRLEY ITEMS
The contractors who have the curbing contract have been so delayed that they have only the curbing done on North Main street at the corners of the cross streets. The principal delay is on account of a mixer that has been delayed on the way here, and the rain has also caused trouble.
The engineer of the improved road north of Shirley has given orders to close the road from the north corporation line to the Lafe Coon corners, a distance of nearly a half mile. This has caused a hardship to the people north of town. They have to drive a half mile west then come south to the Burris blacksmith shop and come east into Shirley.
The report current that the Shirley bottle factory was making arrangements to move the plant to Winchester, seems to be without foundation, as the managers say that the factory will resume operation here about October 1st, and are now making repairs.
Miss Pearl Walker, of Anderson, spent last week visiting her many friends at New Castle and Kennard. She returned by the way of Shirley where she spent a few minutes with the Sparigter family, Sunday.
