The Fall Festival

The Fall Festival Is not far off. For two years Richmond has been working along lines which have no precedent in Indiana and this fact Is due to the splendid spirit of cooperation that is here. As Car aa the whole community is concerned the Fall Festival should be looked on as an Investment whether you live inside the city limits or outside. The gain to the outside of Richmond Is a known quantity for it helps to develop the markets of the producers in the old way which is at the bottom the idea of the real fair. Many a man can point directly to the work of the Festival aa a factor in his Increased sales. Above all there ia the stimulation of coming in contact with men who are doing things the only chance at present to further the work to be -done under the same auspices the corn school next year.

Every man in Richmond knows that the Fall Festival ia given to the friends of Richmond that we may all get together and know each other better. It is an appreciation of the friendly feelings, which exist between the town and country. Strange or not strange it Is a fact that the spirit of wideawake tiptoe efficiency has dated in Richmond from the first Fall Festival. The gain to Richmond is not only from friendliness with the people of the whole community. That is intangible and it is doubtful whether it could be measured in dollars and cents If any one wanted to do it. But the true gain is In leavening the mass in stirring up things and moreover In doing things together. This Fall Festival Is not the work of the Young Men's business club it Is the work of the whole town. Every day citizens, business men, farmers, bankers manufacturers the whole range of cltlsenshlp enters in and works hard for the good of the whole town. The Fall Festival Is an intangible investment. The man who sits down and tries to figure out bow much he is going to get out of the Fall Festival is the very man who won't get anything out of it as long as he has that Idea about it. The reasons are many and various. In the nrst place the man who goes after his friends with the Idea that he is going to make so much out of them is the very man who hasn't any friends or won't have tfter they find him out. In the second place the Fall Festival is an investment which pays deferred dividends. The man who sells pop corn on the street may get his harvest of nickels and move on the man who is established in business will get the benefit out of this Fall Festival for years to come if he is the right sort of man. Moreover Richmond Is placing herself in the attitude of asking "What can we do for You?" Whenever any one does that the gain is obvious, but not put in the ledger under a separate account. Yet it pays dividends. Besides when a man plants an orchard he doesn't expect all the apples to come the first year and he doesn't refuse to ta"ke care of his trees.

To those men in Richmond who are debating how much they can spare for the Fall Festival it should be Bald that if the Fall Festival is not successful this year it will do them and the town more harm than the other two Fall Festivals have done good. We can't afford to fall down on this matter here in Richmond. Everyone Is looking forward to the 5, 6, 7 of October expecting that this is' going to be better than it was last year as much better as last year's was in comparison with the year before. Those who get .together who regard this as an investment for the coming years who are content to work for. the good of the whole town because they know that that is the only way in which they can best benefit themselves are the ones who will get the most out of their con-

A National Irrigation Congress In Session Last of This Month

, (Palladium Special) Pueblo, Colo.. Sept. 15. The states to wbom the reclamation of swamp and overflow lands is of importance are planning to be well represented at the Pueblo meeting of the National Irrigation Congress September 26-30, when this subject will receive considerable attention. The meeting of the congress at Spokane last year adopted the following resolution: "That we memorialize the federal government Immediately to inaugurate drainage measures for the reclamation of swamp lands, and overflow lands of the Union, in the interest of public health and the creation of homes, and we urge the co-operation of the states and the federal government to this end." Col. E. J. Watson, commissioner of agriculture, commerce and industries for South Carolina, will be one to bring the drainage question before the congress, as will former Governor Hroward of Florida. Other strong speakers counted upon are President Kavanaugh of the Lakes-to-the-Gulf Deepwaterway Association and President Ransdell of the National Rivers and Harbors Congress. State versus federal control of water and other resources, pumping for Irrigation, Irrigation laws and legislation. Irrigation agriculture, ' private and public Irrigation and the forestry question are some of those which will come before the meeting In the work to "save the forests, store the floods, reclaim the deserts, make homes on the land."

GOVERNMENT LOOKS INTO .FENCE POSTS Dept. of Agriculture Finds That in Iowa, $1,400,000 Is Spent Annually. OSAGE ORANGE THE BEST

RED CEDAR, LOCUST, WHITE OAK, ARBOR VITAE. CATALPA, BLACK WALNUT, BUTTERNUT. RANK IN ORDER AS NAMED. Washington, Sept. 15. The U. S. Department of Agriculture estimates that the farmers of the single state of Iowa use every year $1,400,000 worth of new fence posts, which cost the equivalent of $600,000 for setting them In the ground. Further, the department officials believe that a part of this expenditure might be saved. The opportunity for economy is found, first, in using the kinds of posts which, taking into account both cost and durability, are cheapest in thi long run, and, secondly, by treating the posts to prevent decay, particularly those which decay most quickly. When a farmer sets a post which will have a comparatively short life, he loses not only through having to buy a new post but also because of the additional labor Involved in setting it. It Is true that in both cases no money outlay may be involved, for he may set the posts himself, after getting them from' his own woodlot. Of the posts used last year in Iowa, seventy percent, it is estimated, were grown on the farms where they were used, or were obtained from other farmers or woodlot owners, and only thirty percent were bought from lumber dealers. Nevertheless, the farmer is out his labor and the part of the product of his woodlot which is used up, even though he does not pay cut any cash. The facts concerning the use of fence posts in Iowa were brought out by an investigation which the department of agriculture has been making through inquiries sent to farmers. Several thousand replies have been used in compiling the figures, which, combined with statistics issued by the Iowa state board of agriculture as to the number of farmers and the acreage, furnished the totals. According to these totals about 10,000.0,00 posts are called for yearly to build and repair fences on 209,163 farms, of an average size of 158 acres each. The average life of a fence post is stated to be fourteen years and the average cost 13.7 cents. There is, however, 'great difference in the lasting properties of different woods. Osage orange lasts more than five times as long as willow does, and for length of service it heads the list of post timbers in the state. The comparative life of other posts is shown in the following list, ranging from the longest period to the shortest: Red cedar, locust, white oak, arborvitae, catalpa, n nuir The

hlafV vilnnt htiitarnnt rei n lr anil

willow. The average cost of posts varies for different woods, and for the same woods in different localities. Red cedar is most expensive, at an average of 26 cents each, and willow the cheapest, at 6 cents. Taking into cbnsideratlon the time a post will last, and the cost of buying it and Betting it in the ground, the conclusion must be drawn tiiat the osage orange post is the most economical in Iowa, followed by white oak, locust, catalpa, red cedar, black walnut, butternut, willow, white cedar and red oak, in the order named.

ZEPPELIN VII NEXT New Dirigible Balloon No. 6 Destroyed While Entering Aerdrome.

THREE OF CREW ARE HURT Baden-Baden. Sept. 15. The German dirigible balloon. Zeppelin VI. while entering her shed today was blwn up by an explosion of the motor in the rear gondola. Three of the airship's crew were seriously injured. The ship had just returned from a trip to Heilbronn. The Zeppelin, the latest of the Illfated series to meet disaster, will be best remembered by Its notable flight from Friederichshafen to Berlin, when It carried Count Zeppelin, the inventor, on a visit to Emperor William. Took Deutachland's Place. When tie Deutschland was wreck ed the German airship stock company, which had Inaugurated a passenger service in the vicinity of Baden-Baden, chartered the Zeppelin VI and advertised that it would make daily trips of from one to three hours each until September 30, when it was expected that the Deutschland would again be in condition. The Zeppelin VI was built in 1909. but had since been altered and enlarged. Her motors and the other navigating and operating machinery were contained in two gondola cars situated in the bow and stern. It was in the Btern gondola where the explosion occurred today. Suspended from the center of the airship was a luxuriously furnished cabin. She carried a crew of ten men. The measurements of the Zeppelin VI were: Length, 472 feet; width, 42 feet; gas capacity, 20,000 cubic yards. Her three motors had a total of 400 horse power, expended in four propellers and giving her a speed of 38 miles an hour. MONTANA REPUBLICANS. (American News Service.) Missoula, Mont.. Sept. -15. -With nearly 600 delegates in attendance the republican state convention of Montana assembled in this city today for the nomination of candidates for representative in congress, railroad commissioner and clerk of the supreme court. That President Taft and the tariff will be indorsed by the convention appears certain. With its great wool, lead and cattle industries, Montana is a protection state on general principles and apparently insurgency has made less headway here than in the neighboring states. The strength of the insurgent movement will be determined by the convention vote on the nomination for congressman. Congressman Charles N. Pray, who is known as a standpatter, is a candidate for renomination and his friends express confidence in the outcome. By general consent the convention will take no action in regard to the United States senatorship". ...

AN OCEAN OF GOLD Scientist Says there Is Enough Gold in Ocean to Make All Rich. ONE SHARE $24,000,000

Paris, Sept. 15. There is' nc"$h gold floating In the ocean 4o make everybody rich and consequently happy. This information is the result of an analysis of ocean water recently finished by Alphonse Berget, a professor in the oceanographic institute. Fresh opportunities are thus offered to speculators and promoters. -The analysis revealed about fifty milligrams (.77) of gold In each ton ' of sea water," explained tho professor. "That seems little enough but considering that takes a lino of figures a . column wide to give tho total number of tons of water in the ocean it i. aAA that n mmne amft-int of gold is held in solution. If each of the 1,500,000.000 Inhabitants of the world had its share It would equal $24,000,000 apiece. What a beautiful ending to all difficulties." "Are there other precious minerals In the sea?" the professor was asked. "Yes," he replied, "there are ten milligrams of silver in every ton of sea water, hence the total is about 50,000 times the amount taken from the earth since the discqvedy in America. There are about sixteen grams (onehalf ounce V of salt in each pound of sea water."
