| LEAvENwORTH, July IL, ISL. I
BY Act of the last session of the Kansas State
Legislature, an appropriation of g, 500 was made,
for the purpose of exhibiting the agricultural pro-
ducts of Kansas at the prominent Fairs to be held
IN the Eastern States for the year 1871. The Kan
sas immigration Society was charged with the i'm
pOrtant duty of this contemplated representation
of the State by its products.
1t has been decided that the greatest good can
| be achieved by selecting but few points, and max
| ing at each of snch places the most complete and
effective exhibition possible. 1t is believed that
great success, like first exposition at Phil
adelphia, is worth more than any number of mod
| crate victories.
In order to make the effort State i'm character,
and equal in its benefits, it is important that the
greatest breadth of the State be represented by
each variety exhibited. To do this, each spec-
men will bear plain label, showing the county
| and (if possbe) the township where grown, with
the name of the producer. This plan will do JUS
tice to all localities and individuals who aid in
| the effort.
1t is quite impossible to make this effort COM
plete success, without the active cooperation of
| some person OF persons in each county. To this
| end, appeal to all who are willing to make lit
tie personal sacrifice for great public good. The
Society cannot send its agents over the State to
collect samples even if it knew where and to
whom to apply. 1t must rely upon local pride
and interest TO see that samples are collected and
forwarded.
desire to open correspondence, at once, with
Individuals throughout the State, who are willing
to aid this enterprise and see their respective To-
caitics properly represented. In order to com
plete all arrangements in time, there should be
no delay. Specimens of grasses, and some of the
cereals should he secured at once. circular will
be sent to those who respond to this call with
full particulars of the mode of collecting putting
up and shipping specimens for exhibition.
Words cannot magnify the importance of this
undertaking, nor will they impress the necessity
of prompt local action in the matter more than
the mere announcement. A. b. HAvENs. Sec,
