The fair in several thousand dollars

of the subway through which automo

Hew they get them coming and going
is indicated in the case of a eteran
keeper of n "deggie" stand. During
the inflation period het frankfurters
went up te a dime from n nickel, nnd
nobody said a word. New that dcflntlen
is upon the country with n buyer's
strike, some people are counting nickels
nnd mnny ask the price. Te these who
kick at a dime the man blandly says:
"Weill I have te charge a dime for
my frankfurters, which nrc firt-class
goods, but across the way there Is a
stand that sells pretty geed ones for a
nickel."
The stnnd te which he points is also
his own, where a clever assistant just
as courteously sells them for five cents.
Identically the same, kind of "doggies."
Even nt n. nickel he makes three cents
profit, it is said.
,'Che concessienaries nnd eating stands
did an enormous business, and a hurry
call was sent te the packing houses
and wholesale feed dealers for extra
supplies. The- thirty-seven eliewe en
tin' inldwny comprising the Werthnin
nggregitlen announced Inst night that
their patrons iluring the day numbered
upward of 00,000.
A unique new enterprise nt the fair
wns the hahy-ehccklng station con
ducted by the Women's Club, with the
co-operation of the Hcd Cress. It took
enre of children up te six years for
fifteen cents for the flist hour nnd a
dime for ench succeeding hour, and
when they get sleepy the tots were
placed in cribs nnd cradles. Their feed
wns milk fresh from the prize cauif
exhibited at the fair. Upward of
(500 babies were cared for, white
their mothers took In the fair, feeling
Fccurc the little ones were safe in lov

The city and county officials were
in disnercement during the day ever
what constituted gnmbllng devices.

I throwing and wheel turning were nil
matters of chance and ought te be sup

a mere liberal view and allowed every.?

Farm Prizes Awarded
Thcra wns much Interest in the work

Frem among upward of 200 displays
the silver cup for the best bushel went
for the second time te Albert Heppes,
of Gcrmansvllle ; second prize te Erie

The prize for best acres of potatoes
went te Wilsen K. Peter, who, in spite
of a dry summer, produced en his acre
