I f ffc would 1x5 iJsrail'1©to p^cvt^ln Just what tho Ohio State Fair iir,;> done for farmers of tho Buckeye «tato the actual pse. nutation of fig­ ures would be co lar^o no nearly cer­ tain to astound the state. The mime of "Ohio’;? ' {rrcatr:;t institution,” which-has .been applied to the fair, is.no t prairscful enough to dcccriba’ >ii'6 fair which will be held thin ye ir at Columbus during tho Inst five dayo of August. • There are three institutions which are mating, over tho business of farming? in Ohio, One of these is the college of agriculture of Ohio State University. The second is the ex­ periment station at Wooster, and tho third is the Ohio State Fair. It is not possible for the state at present to entertain everyone at the experir meat, farm nor can all the farmer- boys possibly hope to reach tho col­ lege of agriculture. Everyone can go to the State Fair, which compresses into imrrbw space many of the good things of both tho other institutions. How valuable the fair has been as a producer of better farming and better results in every- thing that relates .to the soil is hard to c " tu ‘''’> c . Jlv.t; it is reasonably • ' * to cay that every well bred ar«l- >i» any farm in Ohio io there h'-.y-o’y because of the State Fair. V:.ea Ohio farmers first were uv ; d to raitio thorougli-brcd livo- Hm idea wan regarded as so novel that ■ it cm.'onra.'vni actual op- pn'-'t'on in cmne parts of tho country hccau'.-o tho farmer wen led to think that the pure bm l stock proposition was just scheme of the breeders to unload their animal wares upon him. What has*changed this idea? The average farmer says that tho desire for better cattle, better sheep, better homes and better swine has been in­ stilled through visits to the State Fair, v Perhaps only a few acted on tho notidn that they received while look­ ing at the prize winners. Even so, each man who obtained better stock was a missionary, and today one may travel through,..districts where farm­ ers have found that the pure bred an­ imal is a dividend "producer. Tho entire state has not yet been con­ verted, b it if progress continues at the rate of the last two decades tho conversion will*be pretty near uni­ versal. "• . But the possibilities of Scientific achievement—which is the real lesson of the fair—are not to be easily ex­ hausted. !

No other person who sails the clouds has attracted more notico and 'interest than, Ruth Law, who will be t h e ' amusement headliner a t tho Ohio State Fair in'Columbus during the last five days of August; Sho is to make two flights daily, afternoon and night. The ascents will' ho launched in front of tho grandstand, and at night Miss Law’s flying machine will be illuminated. The effect on spectators as they watch tho machine Roping-the-loop, turning somersaults and doing "death-drops* is startling in tho ex­ treme. Although defying eternity in many ways in these exhibition flights, it is .nothing more than sport for Miss Law, she says: "I bar* never been afraid of the air," her story goes, “though I have had some very nar­ row OBeapfes from death. I have been flying since July, 1912, and have ap­ peared in nearly every large city of the United States. Next to flying, I love animals, particularly dogs and horses. Flying is not all pleasure. Like all professions, one must work hard to succeed, It’o us necessary to know your aeroplane and to bo as familiar with your motor as you are with your mirror and powder puff," IVfa Law believes that flying was The o a r With a Wonderful Motor OA K LAND HoStKlbh- Six 41 I t.

Local Aicwt ........ tho profession that was intended for her. She comes from a sedate New England family and, according to her own version, was not content to stay at home as most girls do. “I had ttr have a profession," sho says, “and aviation seamed to be tho one thing that I could do ar.d still be free to enjoy tho great outdoors. I think that flying came to mo naturally.” Sho holds all tho important records for woman aviators, also the world’s second long-distance record, scored on her memorable Chicago to New York flight. She, holds tho world’s second highest altitude record—12,800 foot. Only recently Miss Lnw Returned from France, where sho studied mili­ tary aviation and war tactics. She took a ride over Paris in a military machine. On. her return to tho United States, sho offered her ser­ vices to tho government for the avia­ tion corps. Sho also lias been assist­ ing in tho work of recruiting your, men for the corps. Sho helped to push tho Liberty Bond campaign by flying over several states, advertis­ ing tho loan. At the State Fair, Miss Law will give dsmonsratiens of military fly­ ing, during which she will throw bombs from tho regions of tho stars. Her exhibitions will be free, as also will bo Govern! splendid vaudevilU acts. #»#8!i3!l«S!8S9*^^ tw C U R K M I - t 'A W , M 5 w,Kiraei!
