St. Mary's church fair, which came to a close at Buch's hall on Thursday evening of last week after a live days' run, proved one of the most successful fairs held in McHenry in many years. Large crowds were in attendance each night and the various booths and stands as well as the fish pond, wheel of for­ tune and other attractions did a big business every night. The closing night was a record breaker in every way. On that night a chicken supper was "served to over three hundred peo­ ple and during the entire evening the hall was packed to the limit. Over $•>00 were taken in on the la>t day. The proceeds of the fair, we are told, was about $1,450. When the bills are paid, the committee informs us. a net balance of over $1,000 will go into the church treasury. Last year the net proceeds were about $SHi0. A neglected cough may become chron­ ic.

Much interest and value has been added to the Internationa] Live Stock Exposition by the announcement that, with a view of aiding in the solution of a number of important questions in stock farming, and to contribute toward reduction of the high cost of l iving, there will be inaugurated dur­ ing its next great annual show, to be held at the Union Stock Yards of Chi­ cago, Nov. 30 to Dec. 7. 1H12. a series of important lectures and demonstra- t ions. Leading educators and successful stockmen have been invited to deliver these lectures during the week of the show uj>on topics of vital interest to the breeders, feeders and farmers of America. For this purpose a large convention hall , with equipment to i l lustrate the lectures by stereopticon views or live animal exhibits is under construction in the main ampitheater. As a foretaste of what will be afford­ ed the visitors the following educators will make addresses during exposition week: Dr. A. D. Melvin, U. S. De­ partment of Agriculture: H. J. Waters, president Kansas Agricultural college: Prof. Herbert M. Mumford, University of I l l inois: Prof. H. II. Smith, Univer­ sity of Minnesota: Prof. C. S. Plumb, Ohio State University: Dr. J . A.

Spe­ cial instruction will be given the house­ wife on the best ways of preparing the cheaper cuts of meat into nutri­ tious and palatable dishes for the table. These new features will add im­ mensely to the educational value of the show , not only to the farmer and stockman, but also to the farm wife, to the meat industry and the city vis­ i tor. They call the whole thing a univer­ sity course at the price of a railroad ticket.
