play of Phillips county products at To-
pel1a, it will have to be done outside of

offer to see that samples are forwarded
| If they are furnished at this Office by
September 1st. We hope every man in
the county will, in addition to prepar-
ing samples for the County Fair, also
prepare samples for the State Fair.
Last week in our announcement of
the change of time of holding the fair

should have been September the IS, 10

every one do their best to make it a
success so that it may reflect credit up
