A New ORGANIZATION

On Monday, March 3, at Red
Oak the above named circuit was
formed by a number of representa-
tives of the county fairs of south
western Iowa-Hamburg, Shenan-
doah, Red Oak, Corning, Atlantic,
Avoca, Missouri Valley, Audubon
etc, being among the list. One
IT the many objects in view is to
obtain from the railroad company
cars for horses that can be- retained
through the entire circuit, thus
avoiding many expensive changes
md delays. A circuit entry fee
meking horse eligible to the en-
tire circuit at an advance about
equal to the entry for one meet
is considered. Many advantages
are thus obtained for both the
county fair and the horsemen
racing through the circuit. A
membership fee of five dollars is
advanced by each association for
special circuit advertising, thus
.economlzIrg very greatly in nee
assary expenses.
lhe circuit starts out strong and
A successful future is predicted.
A combination of effort must
necessarily strengthen each coun-
" fair in the circuit and reduce
EXPENSES TO point of economy.
