Embden Cattle Show and Fair.

AAthOUCh OAttAC soho" ohU OIL
The Lake Embden cattle show and
fair was held Wednesday. Oct. g.
Although the weather was dark and
lowery In the morning it cleared up fine
ly and by noon there was large show
ing of stock on the grounds and a good
sized crowd of people had collected.
The stock on exhibition was In good
condition and a credit to the town. The
hauling WAS unusually good and occu-
pied nearly all the afternoon. Although
part of the crowd left early on account
of the shower those who stayed to see
the finish were well repaid for the wet
ting and everyone seemed satisfied and
will probably come again next year to
Lake Embden cattle show.
