by Mr. Arnold who was at all .times
a very close companion to the ex-
hibit. There wag just one trouble
with Arnold And that was that you
could find him at most any hour in
the day with a mincemeat pie in one
hand and with the other pointing
out the exhibits—he was alwa^
busy but he sure liked that pie.
"Is Denton <n the Coast?”
Another thing that provoked
much mirth among the exhibitors in
the Agricultural hall was the fact
that a well-dressed lady walked up
to the booth early one morning
whi e .several of the boys were stand-
ing talking to us and asked one Of
them:
“Is Denton county down on the
coast?”

(Rev. Dt. Woods in St. Louis Chris

For the first time in seventeen
years we had the privilege ofvisiting
Denton, Texas—before that, many
times, and always with increasing
interest. Not merely because it was
—and is—the residence of a num-
ber, older or younger—very dear to
us by kindred ties and earlier asso-
ciations, but likewise for other and
stronger reasons. In educational
aims and successes it is second to
no city of its size within our know-
ledge Here are located the State
Norma) for that district, the State
Industrial for Girls, besides first
class public schools, all crowded
with students, many of whom repre-
sent the best blood of the state. The
court house is one of the finest in
the state; the trolley system is excet-
i lent and connects the center of the
city with the great schools before
mentioned. The spien<jld fire de-

The quickest, best and safest way
to cure catarrh or ' cold in the head
is by using a' remedy that will
“touch the spot" and do its work
qui<k)y without leaving any bad ef-
fects. Ely's Cream Balm, which is
applied to the nostrils or rubbed on
the throat or chest get8 right at
the root of the trouble and in-
stantly relieves even the worst
case of catarrh or cold. A few min.
utea after applied you can feel a
loosening up in the head, the pain
and soreness are gone, the sense of
taste, smell and hearing ceme back,
and you feel like a different per
son.
Ely’s Cream Balm cleanses, heals
and strengthens the inflamed mem-
branes. takes away that stuffed up
feeling and dull pain in the head,
relieves the throat soreness and
stops the nasty discharge which is
the cause ’of the disgusting haw-k-
ng, spitting, blowing of the nose,
and foul breath. Hay fever victims
who ate made mserable by fits of
sneezing, coughing an 1 wheezing get
instant and permanent relief by the
use of this siftiple remedy.
Don't suffer another minute.
Ely's Cream Balm will relieve you
immediately, and a 50 cent bottle
will more than likely work a com-
plete cure. All druggists sell it.

nent notico in the local newspaper.
We venture to say, however, that
no factory has been located in Den
ton county in recent years that is of
greater value to the people than the
demonstration that apples may be
grown In thhat county, as thus re-
ported by the Denton Record and
Chronicle:
“We have always heard, and be-
lieved. that good apples could not
be grown successfully in this coiln-
ty. There was something lacking
in the soil constituents, we were
told, that prevented successful ap-'
pie orchards. That may have been,
doubtless was, true of some varie-
ties of apples, but there were enough
good apples shown here last Satur-
day, perfect specimens, to disprove
thoroughly that the rule holds with
all varieties. We were In a sup
pos«d apple country the past sum-
mer. the Arkansas Ozarks, and we
are not biased, we believe, when we
say that we saw no Arkansas apples

When the day for judging the the whole county, Isby
county exhibits came the judges paid , The necessary ‘ _
their first visit to uenton booth and . erected at meager cost
there remained hithbed till high noon ■
—because of the experimental sta-'
tion grain that was exhibited. Their
<ontention was that it. was grown by
the state and therefore was not
eligible, and then the discussion
began, for the catalogue's only rul-
ing-as to the admissability of ex-
hibits was "that It must be grown,
manufactured or mined within the
borders of that county exhibiting it.” !
And on that ground Roark and Arn- '
old^ put up their fight for right. The '
appeal was finally carried 'to the!
Secretary of the Fair Association and .
failing there it was carried to the
President, who sent it back to the
Judges and the firm of Roark and
Arnold were up against it. After
much parleying, a compromisezfras
struck upon and that was that the
experiment station wheat be left out
of the consideration and that the
exhibit be judged.
One of the judges confidentially
remarked to Mr Arnold that if the
wheat were permitted there would
be little competition among the oth-
er counties and hence they were forc-
ed to leave it out. That seeming to
be the only chance, the wheat was
removed from the oenteft and Roark
and Arnold were in rather an antag-
onistic frame of mind. But there
was some consolation, for we had
given them a race for the money and
knew that we would not be left out
altogether—still we were anxious
for the final decision. The balance
of the counties were judged that
afternoon and before the sun hid
its face we knew that Denton coun-
ty was still in the ring and
had been awarded second prize. It
was remarkable also that out of the
half million only one had not heard
of Denton .county, and Arnold
swears till yet that tha pkrty had
just come from Arkansas, and away
back in the hills at that.
The exhibit was carried to Waco
for the Cotton . alace, where more
than one hundred thousand people
visited it. After the"usual breakage
of shipping and delay and ' invoice
showed less than 700 varieties—but
eren then Denton county was in a
/lass bv herself. That was readily
the verdict of all oth*r exhibitors
•’nd of the sightseers, too It looked
very peculiar to the owners of 8100
and 3206 lands ip that vicinity, that
any county could do ail of that In
one year! But after looking and
listening the most of them were con
vlnced that everything could be

the women to point the way and

counted on every time to aid in any
sort of campaign for the betterment
of social, civic or business condi-
tions. They have taught women to
take an interest in civic matters—
wherein they are especially fitted to
take an important part. The club
movement has survived opposition
and even ridicule. That it has is
due. we believe, to the fact that the
women have acted with discretion

that they were actuated only by un

(By George J. Roark.
The Denton County Agricultural
exhibit, which was shown at the
Texas State Fair at Dallas and the
Texas Cotton Palace at Waco was
indeed a signal success. At Dallas
the exhibit fell under the gaze of
more than half a million peopl ewho
were from all i<arts of the state and
many from other statesl Many
thousand pieces of Denton' county
literature were conservatively dis-
tributed and after the crowds had
seen the actual products of the coun.
ty that were described in the pamph-
let, it} is a safe estimate that ninety
per cent of the literature went deep ■
into the po'ket of the man who was
looking for a better farming land
and other natural advantages, which
were depi ted In tne pamphlet.
That much interest was manifested
by the onlookers was very evident
to E M. Arnold and Geo. J. Roark, '
for they were kept continually an- 1
swering and explaining details of
the numerous products.
727 Products Shown
There were 727 different varieties
of agricultural products of Denton'
l-ecounty displayed in the booth and
j there were none but that had a com* |
mercial value. Of course in an-'
swerin- the question of “How did
you raise all these things in one lit j
tie county?” was asked the answer j
was always ready, for Denton county |
has twenty-seven distinct varieties
of soils, ranging from the light
sandy to the deep black waxy and
then besides the aver’,,’e rainfall Is
more than thirty inches per annum *
and our farmers realize the impor-
tance of diversification. In num-
bers of instances two or shfee crops '
ar? produced on the same plot of,
ground. This intel .genae to many
was quite a surprise as well as was
the abundance of good things that
they could stand and see before
them. Then there was the comical'
s.de of the proposition; many foolish --------7
questions were asked and always be grown in the temperate zone,
answered in gentlefan like dignity ' The blue ribbon w is handed to the

out a murmur and he accepted it

hibit there.
Many Coming to Denton. /
There were many of those black
land farmer# who-.avowed their in-
tention of coming to Denton county
sooner or later and making It their
permanent home.
Only four entries were made at
the Cotton Palace and four blue rib-
bons were brought back to show for
it. There are in all fifteen ribbons
on dis play in th-- office of the
Chamber of Commerce, ten blues and
five reds, the first ribbons that have
