NUMBER OF MEN ARE GETTING READY TO INCORPORATE AND WILL SELL SHARES.
TO RENT OLD FAIR GROUNDS.
ggf" A number of business men of Greenfield have plans under conpk sideration for the rejuvenating of J. the count fair here next year and the idea, which is pretty thoroughly worked out, is meeting- with en- "'. couragement and the approval of a vl ^great many people. Stock will be subscribed and when a sufficient amount is subscribed, they will incorporate and then stock will be sold in every township in the coun-js^-Hy. Farmers are enthusiastic over the prospects and many have expressed their willingness to take some of the shares. There will be sno salaried officers in the association and the fairs will be held for the benefit of the entire county.
There has been agitation along this line for several years. Fairs are popular and ever will be and the people are anxious to get back to this old lime annual county event. The promoters of the fair have arranged for the renting of the old fair grounds, which contains 26 acres, and now has barn room for twenty horses. The aim is to make the fair next year and those that .will follow a mutual affair by having stockholders in every township in the county-and the people ." aj'e taking hold of the matter with •:vv- a great deal of confidence and enthusiasm.
Summer Constipation Dangerous. Constipation in summer time is more dangerous than in the fall, winttr or spring. The food you eat is often contaminated and is more likely to ferment in your stomach. Then you are apt to drink much cold water during warm weather, thus injuring your stomach. Colic, Fever. Ptomaine Poisoning and other ills are natural results. Po-Do-Lax will keep you well, as it increases the Bile, the natural laxative, which rids the bowels of the congested poisonous waste. Po-Do-Lax will make you feel better. Pieasant and effective. Take a dose tonight. 50c at your druggist. (Advertisement.}
