the following full account of the el - The Democrat -News of Saturday gives fairs of the day: The Judith Basin was amply rep- resented at the Eighth annual Farmers' picnic held yesterday at the experiment station at Moccasin, or it is estimated that more than 3,500 people visited the grounds during the day, by actual count, while 500 automobiles were parked there. The weather Was ideal- ly pleasant, a few clouds but no wind nor threatened storm. The grounds and buildings were thrown open for inspection and study of the experiment lolots and these were visited extensive- ly during the morning hours. There '.5 as plenty going on all over the grounds from ten in the morning until a at night, while ice cream, pink lemon- ade and instantaneous photographer,• made it seem like circus day. At II o'clock the band eontest took place, the Moveasiu, Hobson and Den ten bands competing. Votes were dis- tributes] at a dollar each and while the competition was very keen and voting was heavy on both sides, the Moccasin and Hobson band had a bit the better of it. At nom; hutch baskets were produe- ed. picnic sites being optional. .At 1:3e a large flocked to the speakinp pavilion where they heard several school should serve the county as tt whole as no other institut• may, and that county farmers should reap the fullest benefit of their taxes by means of practical education. President J. M. Hamilton of the Bozeman state agricultural college was the second speaker. Being at the head of an agricultural institution President Hamilton knows as few edu- cators do, the real problems of the farmer aside front cut worm, fanweed, and the like, lie chose as the sub- ject of his discourse \Rural Credits Under the Hollis Bill.\ Ile explained simply and lucidly the exact provisions of this bill and its relation to the farm- er and his demands. Present also was E. C. Elliott of Helena, chancellor of the Universitfy of Montana. \The University of Mon- tana\ was Mr. Elliott's theme. His talk was brilliant with wit and en . - t husia sin for I he schools which he hopes to expand to take their places a the greatest educational insti. • Minns in the 1. nited States. Ile stated that more than anything else he wants to impress upon the minds of Judith basin citizens the great opportunities 1Vashitigton. duly 23.--A c011aprehen• fid their young people whWli were sive report on the live...toil: produetion extended from (lii oniversilies, and f .

But while it is possible, he asserted, th4 the rural credits bill will take care the farmers' needs, there are othilit avenues of rural credits to be eonaitlei: ed. It is his opinion that a part of_ tAi funds procured from the sale of pubt lie school lands might properly placed at the service of the farmer Further than this, he stated that the were no other state issues which hi eared to discuss and in closing, gaYll assurance that he considered the JO dill, basin one of the most beautiful and prosperous communities in Si'. llont n na. tk• 'lie program of sports Was the big . attract . immediately after till speaking program.
