Small counties can come in with a fine showing of their products, even though they may be limited In quantity, and every county will be on the same basis. Already this plan has Increased the number of exhibiting counties from thirteen to twenty." O The plan followed this year Is the same as has been used In the Pacific Livestock Exposition. It was proposed in a resolution to the state fair board by the Asso ciation of Exhibitors, of which Mr. Carrel is secretary, with the unanimous endorsenifnt of the as sociation. It met with the approv al of the fair board, which pro vlded additional space for county exhibits this year, and It Is ex pKted that a decided improvement will result.

A Half Billion Dollars. tn the 902 principal banks of the country there were,"on the first day of August, savings accounts amounting to $7.9ii3.nou,000. That Is a gala of more than half a bil lion dollars over 1924. It is a gain of $5 for every man, woman and child Jn the country. That Is a record of thrirt of which the cation may very well boast. It Is proof that the losses oWhe war hnve not been forgotten. f i 1918 fewer, than .0U0,0O0 American families owned their own homes. Of that number 2.000.000 carried mortgages, KleTen million' were renters. In l!18 the records showed that 66 out of every iluo persons who died In the Hulled States left no estate whatever. They showed that of the remaining 34 per cent only nine left estates exceeding $5""'. They showed that at the age of0i, out of every 1H) persons 97 were partially or wholly dependent upon I relatives, friends or the public for their living. They showed that one of every ten persons dying In the large cities waa burled In a pau per's grave. Put those fignrea will have to be revised. If the people of the conn try continue to add half a-blllion dollars a year to their raMgs ac counts there will be more noma owners In the United States, there i will be far fewer morU'ea, there ! will be far fewer renrrrs, there will be far fewer "dependents', and ' there will be far fewer lowered In to pauper's graves. . There la no better sign for the future of America than that added $500,000,000 a year in savings ao- I counts.
