This body announces that every side $7 the whole thee day program has necessarily been enlarged, a fact which will make Oshawa's Fair this year an outstanding event, and long to be remembered. Ontario,' being highly an agricul- tural center, a center also where the breeds of the stock are of the high- est standard, is given its opportunity of displaying the same to hundreds of omtsiders as well as to our own inhabitants. Friendly competition is the great means by which the stand- ard of the stock is upheld, and not ty | only this but other redeeming rea- sons as well, tend to point out that showing in the Oshawa Fair has its decided advantages. . The committees chosen by the di- rectorate to supervise each section of the stock and cattle entries are especally adapted for their work in that they are well-known throughout the country as critics and judges of their particular classes. A prize list, complete in every detail is in the i of the publishers, the minute following of which will save the ex- hibitors much trouble and possible disappointment, The cattle exhibits this year are expected to surpass all other years, both in quality and quantity, This section of the Fair always attracts considerable attention. Several spe- cial features in regard to the cattle displays have been added to the agen- da by the Directorate which will greatly improve the showing. An an- nouncement has been made that a Grand Parade of all the prize win- ning horse and cattle classes in front of the Grand Stand is to be a feature of Thursday, September 13. This parade will be handled in a man- ner similar to the great Scotch and English shows. All prize winning horses and cattle must enter this parade in order to be entitled to the prize money which is offered, and no prize money will be paid by the secretary unless the winner is report- ed as having participated in the pa- La Watch Monday's Credit 8 PRINCE ST, Specials for FAIR WEEK money savers CHURCHLEY"S issue for some real Jewellers PHONE 1053 Babies of Oshawa Fair on the judges' eyes. entries in this popular evemt, The Baby Show io and Durham Counties will shine at the ursday, September 13. the last day of the fair. On that day, at three o'clock in the afternoom, all the proud papas and mindful mothers for miles around will gather at the big tent at the exhibition grounds, and watch with jealous eye and the hope that their own particular protege will hold But, to win the prize, babies must be under one year of age--this, we presume, is to ensure that the class judged each year at the fair is an entirely new one. Dr. F. J. Rundle of this city has been again selected by the Society to judge the rade. This parade is the big attrac- tion of the last day of the Fair and a full Grand Stand will be on hand to witness it. A good list of Trials of Speed will be arranged for the second and third days of the Fair. Large pur- ses will be offered for competition ine these events, and it is announced that the track for these races is to be put into splendid shape. A Baby show, carried on under ri- gid restrictions, in the big tent at three o'clock on the Thursday after- noon is certain to attract wide at- tention, A prize of $8 for the best baby, with 'two other prizes have been arranged, entries to be made on the day of the Fair to the judge, Dr, Rundle. A Fair would not be a Fair unless the Midway was present, and this year, the attractoins booked for the Fair dates includes four first-class rides, and the famous Royal Cana- dians Show, which will provide en- tertainment during the day as well as at night. These shows are noted for their cleanliness in presentation, and no doubt will merit the patron- age which tycy deserve, On Wednesday and Thursday af- ternoons and evenings there will be free acts of vaudeville in front of the Grand Stand. Seven big acts are scheduled to take place. In addition to this there will be two splendid displays of fireworks on Wednesday and Thursday evenings. Special at- tention has been given to the chdice of free attractions. Extra money has been expended in order to provide a program that will surpass any ef the previous shows of this nature, A band will be in attendance every af- ternoon and evening, and is none other than the Ontario Regimental Band which will also play for all performances. This splendid musical organization is one of the best mili- tary bands in the Province and al- ways presents a pleasing program. In Alexandra Park, Oshawa has a splendid -and picturesque location for a Fall Fair, No further information is necessary to tell citizens of this city and district in what fine environ- ment the Fair operates, but this year the Directorate are looking forward to record attendance every day of the Fair, and the enthusiasm which has always been shown in this an- nual has increased tremendously, About time for someone to fore- cast a long and severe winter.--Bran- don Sun, MARKET FOR SOY BEANS (From the Torento Ja and Em- pire . A country so rich and varied in its agricultural possibilities as Can- ada should not import products which it can grow equally well at home. One of these is the soybean or soya bean, a native of China and Japan. It is grown to an enor- mous extent in Manichuria, where 25 per cent. of the cultivated area is given up to it and where it forms the chief freight for the South Man- churia Railway, Itf uses are amaz- ing in number. Not only are the beans in various forms an excellent food for cattle but the bean oil is used for burning, cooking, as a lub- ricant, as a substitute for butter, for making soap, and high explos- ives, And the bean cake is a valu- able fertilizer, By soaking, crush ing and boiling and adding sugar, the beans can be turned into a cheese rich in casein, The beans can also be made into a sauce or used as a substitute for chocolate, The soya bean has been grown to a small extent in each of the prov- vinces of Canada, but there seems to be room for a great increase in the production of it. A bulletin is- sued by the Department of Agricul- ture at Ottawa, descriptive of the soya bean, says that Canada has imported: annually, during the last seven years, an average of about 5,000,000 pounds of soya bean oil for use in the manufacture of soaps and oils, One ton of the beans yields approximately 240 pounds of oil. As a ton of beans would be an ex- tremely good yield per acre the quantity of oil imported annually represents the product of at least 20,000 acres of the sova beans. Why can we not raise these beans at home? Moreover the cake or meal resulting from the extraction of oil from soya beans has a feeding value equal to that of linseed meal or cotton seed cake and it is imported into Canada in considerable quantities for feeding purposes. Why can we not grow and make our own soya bean food for cattle?
