Ing and all of he Minnesota exhibits
we're very appropriately decorated to-
day with flags and bunting in pre-
parltOry for the. greatest Fourth of
July in the history of the United

AS a result Of the interest, enthusi-
asm and expense incurred by manufac-
turers Of farm machinery, there is now
III he implement section of the agri-
cultural building at the exposition The
finest and most complete display If
agricultural implements and machinery
ever brought together, and with the
magnificent exhibits made by wind
mill concerns outside the building. the
manufacturers of farm machinery have
reason TO be proud of the result of
their labors and of their section Of the
exposition.
With the earnest desire Of having
the benefits of this exhibit extended as
widely as possible, both at home and
abroad TO those that have taken part,
and of bringing together in a social way
the manufacturers represented here,
and becoming acquainted with the for
eign representatives accredited to the
exposition who are interested in farm
machinery and implements"
1t is expected that this inspection
and banquet will go far toward calling
attention TO the superiority of Anleri-
can-made farm machinery, as COM
pared with every other make in the
world.
