An exhibit of hud the work in hand in connection potatoes was brought In from Perry with the Cranbrook Pall Pair are more than satisfied with tho results obtained. The weather, which for the last few days has been inclined to be a little boisterous, settled down towards Thursday morning and an afternoon resembling an autumn day greeted tbe crowds of people as they came into the city from all directions. Vehicles ol every description and automobiles were called into use to bring into our fair city people whose desires and ambitions were solely to see the products which it is possible to raise in the city and district of Cranbrook. Many outsiders have often been beard*to express sceptical expressions as to the possibilities of the soil in tbe Hunt Kootenay District, As the old adage m.ys "Tbe Proof of the Pudding is iu the Eating there ot," so was it clearly proved by the exhibits shown at this year's fair. That all these scepticisms were unfounded, and the facts as shown by the exhibits cnn be clearly proved. Cranbrook, therefore, cnn now, even more than ever before, still hold tlrst place for small fruit farming, vegetable growing, and general farming of all kinds and classes. Some ot the wheat, rye, oats, alfalfa and other well known varieties of grasses were of such excellent quality, that the Association have deemed it wise to reserve many of these for the exhibit that is being prepared lor the Lethbrldge Dry Farming Congress. The interest in the Pall Fair this year was very notably remarked upon by the officials of the Association ('reek and shown at the Fair which were grown at the height of 6,750 feet above sea level. As one, after buying the entrance ticket to the Exhibition grounds, enters through the gate a person might easily imagine one's self on Coney Island; for to look and behold on your right are gathered together for* tune tellers, Clairvoyants, shooting galleries, nigger throwers, etc., etc., which afford vast amusement to all sight seers and children in general To one's left, however, one is again impressed with the large display in the permanent building of tbe East Kootenay Mercantile Co. Their One showing of democruts, heavy wagons, agricultural implements, harness, etc. Next to this exhibit is the large refreshment booth which, this year was conducted by the ladles of Christ Church. This booth, through out the whole of the Fair, received a large patronage, and did ample justice to the needs of the visiting populace. Reaching the larger permanent building In which are place the various exhibits, one again observes the interest taken by local tradesmen. To the left of the entrance, W. H. Wilson is to be seen with his excellent display of cut-glass, watches and jewelry of all kinds, also his optical instruments which were often hrought into use by enquiring visitors. To the right, the Patmore Bros, have a splendid showing of Bathroom requisites of all kinds. On the opposite aide of the Hall are We have in the brief review already given, called attention to tbe Siberian, German and Hogg millet, also the- rye samples shown one of which reached the height of 7 feet, but In addition to these he had a general display of various fruits, vegetables and other grains and grasses. It might be said in passing, that the whole of this display was grown, practically, on uncultivated ground. This should be particularity noted on account of the fine quality of the exhibit. Next to this was an exhibit which drew the attention and admiration of all sight-seers. In the centre one beheld the sign, "Creston Exhibit." We would like to draw to the attention of our readers that this, exhibit was not sent In by the Creston Fruit Growers' association, as many observers thought. It was tbe particular exhibit of two inhabitants of Creston; namely, Mrs. W. S, Hyckman and Mrs. J. W. Dow. The former's part of this selection consisted principally of various kinds of JUDGES OF FAIR EXHIBITS HORSES—James Fuz.ee, Waldo. CATTLE, SHEEP, SWINB-Horatlo Webb, Victoria. POULTRY-J.

By the side of tbe ore lay a special exhibit of potatoes grown near the claim at an altitude of 6,780 feet. The Staples ranch sent in from WyclitTe nn exceptionally fine display of vegetables of all kinds.

Never before j cleB from tbelr pure food Groceryj In tbeir processes of honey-making. has the Interest of the general public been so aroused in the productiveness of our soils, or the power to prove by results from the ranches tn tbe Immediate vicinity of Cranbrook been shown so clearly as by the gate receipts of a record attendance on the first day of the Fair. No matter how small the ranches or gardens were, no matter how small or insignificant the gardens of the working men of Oranbrook, nil of them hnd results to show in small fruits which were surprizing to tho beholder, Larger farms, us for instance the Indian Industrial School, Ht. Eugene Mission, A. K. Watta, Wattsburg; Wycllfte (Staples Farm); produced exhibits which brought forth acclamations of HtirprlHing won derment at the size and quality of the products shown. Special reference should really he made of the summer cabbages brought In by the Wycllfle (Staples Farm), which reach ed an average weight of about 32 lbs each, measuring aome 12-14 Inches In diameter, tbe largest one exhibited at the Fair was the product of this ranch and reached the enormous weight of 87 J lbs, and measuring 17! Inches In diameter. Of tho Wattsburg farm exhibits special men tlon should ho drawn to the three vuritles; Siberian, Gorman and Hogg Millet, which Is supposed to he the first grown in this district. This was grown on uncultivated ground, at altitude of over 3,000 feet and Is of the highest possible quality; the rye shown In this exhibit stood over 7 feet in height. Altitude apparently hns no effect and proves no hindrance to the pro- department; especially are they making n showing of Purity Flour. Throughout the whole of the exhibition this company handed out cups of tea nnd coffee to the ladies and gentlemen in passing. On the other side ot the entrance hall Campbell & Manning's have again their old stand with a goodly display of pure health foods. It, might here be said in passing that the display of Limoges China shown by this tirm drew greal attention. The p. Burns ft Oo, this year hnd on display a first-class line of animal food fertilizers suitable for the farmer, cattle raiser, poultry keeper, and gardener. These fertilizers ure almost a nnw product in the west and drew much attention from the enquiring public. The next stand on exhibit was arranged by tho Women's Institute of Crnnbrook in which was shown a wonderful display of ferns and flowering plants, also a splendid example of cakes by members were here exhibited. Next to this was a flue display of Singer Sewing Machln?s as has ever heen shown In Cranbrook, under the personal direction of their local agent, Mr. G. Powell. Mr. Powell, for tbo convenience of numerous enquirers had a demonstrator at work proving the numerous usages to which a lady can mako of the machine. On the opposite cowee of the Exhibition Hall, Mr. A, K. Watts, very generously sent in an exhibit (rom his Wattsburg ranch, which was not to he onterod for prizes,but solely to show the possibilities and productive neBs of tbe soil In, and around, the district In which he has his abode. Mr. T. S. Gill, the owner thereof, is the pioneer of the bee industry in Eastern B.C., and some of the results of his work were displayed to great advantage in this exhibit. On this table Mr. Gill had some of the honey bottled, which tor its transparency, clearness and quality would he hard to excell. The owner had also a large square hlock of wax on j view. still lay claim to be pre-emlnegt in ♦heir capabilities along this line. The exhibition of Flowering plants FernB, Cut-Flowers and Bouquets re celved a considerable amount of admiration from the ladles. In the centre of tbe Hall, opposite the stairwny. there wns arranged in a specially prepared glass ense, one of the finest nnd best exhibits ot bottled fruits ever seen in the dis trict.

The second heat was a complete repetition of the flrst in both places nnd in time, Phillipsburg winning in r>8 seconds with Shoestring second. Then followed a vaudeville stunt pulled ofi by two very euergetic artists. It was very hard to hoar what was said, but from the forcible manner in which their expressions were made possibly they were more interesting than the words or story of tho act. The next race was a half-mile heat race, hest three iu five (or a purse of 1200.00. In this rare there were five1 entries. Richnrd, entered by Dr. Rutledge, Oswald Lee, by I). Burton, i Bob, by J.

Thursday's game was closely contested, hut Crnnbrook won with a score of 5 to 4. Friday's game was an exhibition that was worth going miles to see, nnd was keenly conteste-d from start to finish, Nelsnn winning by a score of 3 to 2. As it was understood that the points in the two games was to count at the finish, and Cranbrook bolng 7 nud Nelson 7, the managoment ot tbe Cranbrook team asked tbe Nelson team to play the tie ot! imt Nelson declined. The referee then ordered the teams to Dne up, aud Cranhrook scoring was declared tbe winner of the series.

The great funeral car, attended by a large number of Japanese of hit*h rank, wearing the ancient, notional court mourning costume, consisting of an upper robe of horse chestnut color, dull colored loose trousers and coronet caps of black silk, was then brought to the gate.

The tirst prize con sis tod of a Seven Drawer Sewing Machine valued at 165.00 donated by Gen. Powell, agent for the Singer Sowing Machine Co., and was won by "Beulah" daughter ot Mr. nnd Mrs. A. G, Hill of Cranhrook. ttie second prize consisted of a Wagner Go-cart, donated by the 0. c. s Oo, valued at $15.00 and was won by "Gerald Alexander" son of Mr. and Mrs. W. I).Laidlaw, of Cranbrook. The third prize was jtfi.OU In cash, donated by (ins. Thols of Perry Creek and was won by the daughtcs of Mr, nnd Mrs. Nelson, of Yahk, B.C. The judges In this contest were obtained from outside the city and consisted of Mrs. Rogers of Creston, Mrs. Ross of Waldo, aud Mrs Gilchrist of Fernie. Unfortunately, owing to a mistake that arose, many of the mothers brought their little mites to the booth on the first day, only tn Ond to their disappointment that the judging was to be done on the second day; however,nt the time of judging eveyone began to wonder where all the children were comng from. Never has it been our pleasure to see so many smiling faces nud to hear such good.naturedly jokes as those passed by the mothers who wece confident their bnby was tlic prettiest and the best. The bnbies must really have known what was expected of them, for scarcely a cry arose or a whimper was to be hoard, all wanted to do the hest they could for their uarents and uphold the confidence which was so openly displayed in them. Ab one gazed at their happy little faces we can easily bring to mind a scrap from an old song:— "They are idols of hearts and of households; They ale angels of God in disguise." AU the ladles in Uie Exhibition Hall, those who had heen visiting I the sports, those also who had been in various parts of tlio grounds, as the time drew near for the judging tobegin, all turned their steps towards the spcciiil booth provided by the 0. 0. S. Co for this purpose, all deeply interested In the result ol the judging, Mr. McFarlane hnd very thoughtfully provided a liirgo number uf Chairs for the mothers to recline in duoiug the period ot wklv iug—and they were appreciated too. The task before the Judges wns no light one to have in view but tbey did not shirk their task. As they biowed the little babies, one by one, and considered the merits of each, Ilrst one und then another was puss ed by until the result narrowed down to the few. Again and again they were sorted out until dually the allottod prizes were awarded. And then the hubbub, the talk, oh dear! ono had to hold their ears or he deafened by the tumult, the why and the wherefores where asked and answered. All was now over and the mothers of the winning ones were the proud recipients of numerous congratulations. As these were taken home and the mother showed the baby tu the fatjer, well might ■ one repeat some more lines thnt come to mind "As summer stars, in tholr serenest splendor, Shine down on Earth's fair flowerets from above, So shine tho mother's eye—so fond so tender- On her yodng child—the fair flower of love. And proudly as the morning sun ahvances, To look on earth, To look on Earth, when ehe is glad and bright The happy father turns, with radi ant glances To the two forms that make his World of Light."

There was a large attendance Friday, attractions were flrst-claan, and everybody was satisfied. The fruit and vegetable exhibits were first-clas-v—something that the Cranbrook district can be proud of. Any woman that entered a baby in the Singer Sewing Machine prize can got a discount of $5. off, ansh and credit sales during the next 30 days. A pony , owned by Harry White, which was hitched to n fence, broke loose, running through the exposition grounds and nearly destroying several tents and injuring two Laby children. Most fortunately nothing serious resulted. There seemed to have been a misr understanding in regard to the "Baby" show nt the Foir. Many mothers hnd the opinion that the show was to have taken place on Thursday when It was announced for Friday. Owing to this mistake a large number of those entered did not appear on Friday. There was thirty babies, everyone of which should have been a prize winner. Painting Miss Olara Whitehead of Moyie, won 2 firsts with her paintings in the Animal and Fruit classes. These pictures are exceptionally worthy of special mention, being executed by this student of the Art and she is only 1G years old. Thoy drew considerable attention among the Art lovers because of tbelr excellency and the transparent colors used in producing such fruit. One of these, the fruit scene, is 30x45 inches in size, tho model fruits were grown in this district Tho other landscape scene with cattle this was 36x48 inches in size. Several Scotchmen thought this was a scene from dear old Scotland as it resembled in a very striking way the hoa ther hills with cattle grazing in the valley. Miss Whitehead is to bo con gratulated on her skill which predict* a big future in store for her. IMQ11L _ And sold with our guarantee of perfect tit quality and style.

After leaving the large hall we pro- the like of hefore in B.C. A really 'interesting feature of the live stock i section und one which drew the at- j tentlon of a laree number of ladies wus a pen of g-.ats. Overseas' Dance The tirst Grand Hall of the sea son was given by the overseaa flub on Friday last, in benefit of Mr. Oeo Lynch, one of tbe members of the club, who has been incapacitated from following his employment. The attendance was very large and showed to whnt extent the interest in the object of the dance hud been aroused The hall was tastefully decorated with electric bulbs hy the Davis Bros. Tn the centre of the hall they had arranged the overseas Club flag. The music was provided by the Querard Orchestrn und wan good In variety, excellent In quality and proved all that a dancer could wish for. 0. H Knoeke again proved himself the ol door u pustmaster manager The refreshments provided were under tbe care of Mesdames H. tiridlev and K. lsmay, providing for the wants of the crowd In an able manner, the tables being especially tastefully decorated Dancing was kept up until the early hours of the morning Tbe committee huve asked hh to express thmucrh these column*, their appreciation for the help given by vurious members oi the order and other outside friends who ho kindly helped to make the ball the success it was. After ull expenses nre paid it is expected that tne club will bo able to hand over to Mr Lynch the wim of 1300.00. The're all doing it—What ? Advertising in the Prospector "Do Thou Likewise" To find the world's greatest fj.ii it Is necessary to go to Russia, where the remarkable fair in the world is held annually. It is suid that there has been an annual fair at Nijni Novgorod ever since the middle of the Fourteenth Century, and it is reasonable to suppose that as long us there was a desire on the part of the people of Asia to exchange their raw materials for the more finished products of tSuropeau industry there would be considerable trading at Nij- ni. since it is the nntural meeting- place between the two continents as far as the Russian (Umpire is concerned. The city stands nt the confluence of the two great Russian rivers, the Olga and the Volga. The market place is in the very- centre of tbat water communication that joins the Caspian nnd the Black sea to the White flea and tbe Baltic. It in the terminus of the railway from MOSCOW, and the railway brings the market in communication with Russia in Kurope and the western world, while tbe Volga does tho same service for Asia. There is every natural reason, therefore, for a Nijni Novgorod to be a great center. THK FAIR IN THK PITY With all these advantages, however the population ot the citv fa only about 50,00(1. In fact, tbe fair is bigger than the city. It might almost be said to be a city in it self, and to be independent of j Nljm Novgorod, for the citizens j themselves have little or nothing beyond feeding it's surplus population. Tbe fair bus it's own streets! shops, j hotels and places oi amusement, even It's own churrh The church, indeed. Is u very notable one. Hm domes being heavily I coated with gold, and visible for j many mllOfl about. The admliiistra ' tlon of the fair Is bv no means equal to it's reputation, for It Ih c.onclud , ed on Oriental lines, und visitors run the rink of contracting n fever from the low lands where the streots are built every time the? visit the grounds. Nevertheless, they pour in year after year in greater numbers than the year before, and leave it to European sightseers to make the complaint. THK HAGGLING FAIR The Nijai Novgorod fair is different from such exhibitions as we are familiar with because here the spectators form the bulk of the crowd. In Russia, tive out of six people on the fair grounds are there tor purely business reasons. They want to buy or sell. Few of them are there (or the purpose of advertising goods thnt mny be bought at some subsequent date. All are to do business, and they huve their goods to sell on the apot. There is no fixed price for anything. All business is done after a certain amount of haggling. One price Is asked another price Ih offered and the deal is continued until the descent of one und the ascent of another make it possible to close a bargain. It ia suid thut the women vendors are the worst oflendors in that they Ilrst price, if they were the Hellers, are au high, and so low if they are purchasers, that n great amount ot time is wasted before serious business Is approached. Practically every sort of goods are bought and sold lu the Nijni bazaar, from American alarm clocks to Russian sables tbat may some day form a part of a duch ess' coronation robe, and from Oriental rugs to fountain pens. WHERH BUBINK88 Ifl lllUHKKttT. The throe articles in which there is tho greatest activity are ikons, samovars and furs. Kvery orthodox Run slan has un Ikon, the religious emblem that plays auch a prominent part in the ceremonies of tbe Greek church. The fact, that a Russian has one Ikon la the strongest reason for blm to aupply himself wltb a hand aomer one when he has the oppor tunlty, and consequently there Is nov or any slackening In the demand. The Hamoval, which Is really a tea urn, differing from the Kngllsh article ouly l-ecuuse tbe bot cinders to boil the water are placed in an inner tube Instead of underneath in a brazier, is probably the article most universally in use in Russia. Whole streets are devoted to the sale of snmovars, and the prices vary from tbe peasants' samovar, which can be bought tor a tew cents, to tbe ornate samovar that costs mnny hundreds of dollars. FUR MARKET OF THE WORLD The furs, though, are the great feature of tbe show fair. Many acres are devoted to shops that deal ln furs alone. It would be expected that only the furs taken in Russia would be sold, hut tbe fur market nt Nijni attracts hunters and dealers from all parts of the world, and you can buy a tiger skin .n the heart of Russia as readily as in India. It is tho fur market tbat has made the great fair famous outside of Rus Hia. It is said tbat tbe prices there are much cheaper than those prevailing elsewhere, but the keen competition of rival bidders is surely forcing them up to the standard, and the sellers are becoming educated to the fact The fair at Nijni Novgorod o- penH in the latter part of July, but there is not much doing until about the middle of August. From then until late in September business never tings. When the fair closes the unsold goods are packed up and shipped away, the buildings are cloned, the pontoon bridge connecting the fair grounds with the town are removed and tho Governor- General returns to hln residence. In the Autumn the fair groimds is almost always under water and through the Winter it remains a field of ice. No attention Ih paid to the place until Hummer comes again, when a couple of week's preparation ih considered sufficient to put the place In condition to receive the men-bantu and tbe customers once more. World Swinging to Republican Form of Government The German emperor Ik reported to have confessed to a historiun named Kroon that "my (William's) Bon j | will he the last of the emperors. All the world within .IO years will be republican. Germany will be the last ol the empires. It Is* inevitable." If Emperor William really uttered this confession, which is startling ub I coming Irom the staunchest modem up-holder ol imperial perogatlve and the divine right of kings, he showed himself open-eyed to the signB ol tho times. He is so far.sighted a states-1 man and so astute a politician, that he can hardly be blind to tho "Weighed and found wanting" that democracy and socialism are writing on the walls of the palace. The emperor Is right nn to tho j growth of democratic ideals and re- publican Institutions throughout the world. Tho trend la unmintnkeahlc. : Kven China has nsrhleved radical changes in tbe shape and methods ol government, swim-in,: in n single j year from absolutist monarchy to representative monarchy to representative democracy. Republics, themselves, whether tiny Switxer laud, aristocratic Franco, or hugh and plutocratic America, evince n drift towards pure democracy. Nations of vast expanse nnd hugh population manifest a growing desire lor direct government by tho people an executive, judicary and legislative. Whether thc present crown prince ol Germany will prove to be the last of thc German Emperors is another question. The Germans, of course, are capable of governing themselves without uny over-ruling sovereign. The day iB sure to dawn when they will strip the Hohensollern dynnsty ol its autocratic domination over ths government. Bnt Kngland hns long had a virtually ropublicnn government nnd yet remains satisfied to retain a king or queen. It cares more lor the substance ol democracy than for the name and enjoys the social distinction conferred hy hnvlng a sovereign and court. It mny be that the Germans, likewise, will be con lent to reduce their emperor to a dg- urc head on the ship pf stnte, while . putting ono ol thomoclvea on the Captain's bridge. On the othor band however, tho Germans aro more thoroughgoing aud radical than the Kngllsh anil may chop away tho royal figurehead altogether. tU.A1.KD TKNDKRH addressed to the undersigned, nnd endoriod "Tender lor Pile Wharl at Willow Point, B.C.," will be received at thl3 office until 4.00 P.M., on Frldny, October 11, 1912, for tbo construction of a Pile bent nnd timber decking wharf nt Willow Point, District of Kooten ay, IlrltlBh Columbia.

Tirre hope, for making the Fall Fair such a big success. We bespeak, for next year, your assistance in making it bigger and better than ever. The District of South-east Kootenay need not be ashamed of her Products— no other part of British Columbia, or Canada, can produce more or better Fruit or Vegetables, and, although not a grain district, the Grain Displays were excellent. THE DISTRICT DISPLAY, which is now being arranged for the Dry Farming Congress to be held at Lethbridge next month, will not, we predict, be excelled. Yet it behoves you to lend your assistance and make it so much better than any other display that our ability will be heralded far and wide Below Are The Names Of The Persons Winning The Por Best Exhibit of Potatoes JOHN LEVETT Best Exhibit of Cauliflower and Cabbage JOHN LEVETT Best Buns Made From "Purity Flour" MRS.
