YOUR DUTY TO The EAIR.


Secretary Fowler sounded note of
warning IN his annual report to the So
ciety in 1895, when he said:
There is possibility that the Iowa
state fair, will in the near. future be
eclipsed by neighboring state. The
Illinois state fair has been permanent
~ located at Springfield. and the legis-
lature appropriated $225,0O0 to be ex-
pended in buildings and other improve
ments OF the grounds, with the promise
and expectation of $125.O00 more for
that same purpose. In addition thereto
the state appropriates $4,000 annually
for the payment of premiums for the
encouragement of agriculture and hor-
ticulture.a - Other western
states make liberal annual appropria-
tions of their state fair Minnesota,
$4,000; Ohio, $1,000 to state board of
agriculture: Nebraska, $4,000 in prem
iums; Wisconsin gives $4,000 and 10
per cent of all premiums awarded, and
the state loaned 100000 to the Agricul-
tural society for the purchase and i'm
provement of the grounds
In Iowa the society is obliged to de-
pend almost wholly upon, the gate re-
ceipts for money to pay premiums and
3oeiIdy Iue OlHer expenses OF ltS great
annual exhibits"
What was true in 1895 has been veri-
fled in 1897. Other states are making
liberal appropriations to their agricul-
tural societies right along, and all the
people are paying their share through
raxation. Iowa, through its represent
atives, prefers to let the citizens con-
tribute as they feel disposed by paying
an admission fee. and therefore the
whole fabric of the great state fair
rests upon the gate receipts, and the
sale of privileges. This throws re-
sponsibility upon every individual far
mer and citizen interested in agricul-
tire. If you do not attend and if you
do not exhibit. down goes the institu-
xion. Can you afford to miss the OPP

and will be until after it's over. The
fair-with it's thousands of exhibits of
the best that Iowa affords-its noise
and hustle, its glitter and attractive
ness-the fascination of it's side-lights
the beauty of its completeness. Oh,
who can afford to miss it? The great
exhibits, the whirl of the almost human
machinery, the racing horses the con
tending Indians, the yelling dining
hall tout, and the musical peanut man
the seductive side shows, the meeting
of friends, the rush, the din, the Music,
the scream of the locomotives whistle,
the roar Of the traffic-in fact, the great
fair-can you afford to miss it?
Then the sights at night. Thou
sands of dollars are piling up to spend
for light, and rockets, and fireworks in
the city of Des Moines. Every avenue
am enchanted place, lit up with myriad
lights of variegated hue. Professions
Of pomp and magnificence will fill the
streets, pageants no word painting can
portray. The river scene at night Civ
ing a realistic rendition of the Siege
of Vicksburg this and much more
can be seen free by those visiting the
state fair Can you afford to miss it?
Are you going to the fair?

TRANSPORTATION SERVICE.

The means of transportation to and
from the state fair grounds are amply
adequate for any sized crowd. There
are two lines of service, the Des
Moines City Railroad company run
ming cars continuously at five cent
fare each way from its centrally located
waiting room, two blocks north of the
Rock Island tracks, on Sixth avenue,
and also trains on the Great Rock
Island system, running every ten min
utes from the depot, foot of Fourth
street, at a ten cent fare each way.
Both means of transit land the visitor
at the fair ground gates. The street
railroad route takes in the capitol, and
soldiers monument.

1000 CHILDREN IN LINE.
