Good Roads at the Fair.
For the fair of 1902 the manage
ment is making broader plans than
ant of the new departures is the great
Good Roads convention and road
building demonstration. This is no

as some one has called certain efforts
in this line The good roads move
ment which will be inaugurated at
the fair is backed by the Agricultural
Department of the United States gov
eminent. The government will send
to the fair grounds its famous "Good
Roads Train"-a train of dozen cars
loaded with the latest things in road
making machinery and apparatus.
These machines will be unloaded at
the fair grounds and, under the di-
rections of government engineering
experts, half mile or more of model
road will be built before the eyes of
the visitors. Model roads in mac
adam, gravel and dirt will be con-
structed, errors will be pointed out
and practical ideas disseminated.
In fact, the practical will govern
and control at this good roads meet.
Only practical methods will be talked
about or demonstrated Persons with
theories will not be given hearing.
Experience will be the authority.
While the demonstrations of the real
thing are going on on the fair
grounds. a convention will be held in
Institute hall, where the subject will
be discussed by plain-speaking expert
authorities on good roads, and where
visitors will have an opportunity to
ask questions 1t is the intention to
make the whole thing as useful as
possible to the people of the north
west.
Monday, of fair week, will be Good
Roads Day. The convention will last
till Wednesday, but the demonstra-
tion work with the machinery will go
on all the week.

stock growers, which are the richest
and most influential organizations of
their kind in the world, make no ex-

Minnesota has good reason to be
proud of her State Fair.
Taking all things into consideration
it is, perhaps, fair to say that no 9TH
er influence is working out SO much
is doing powerful educational work;
1T is introducing broader methods of
farming; it is stimulating stock
growing; it is developing horticul-
ture; and it is advertising Minnesota
to the world as no other institution
can or would.
Within a decade the Minnesota
State Fair has risen from an incon-
sricuous place among the state fairs
of the country until it is now the
largest Of all; and it has even out
stripped the great Canadian fair at
Toronto, which has held first place
for many years in attendance and re-
ceipts. Last year over $4,000 people
passed in through the turnstiles at
the Minnesota State Fair grounds.
The Minnesota State Fair is the
only one which can maintain great
national cattle shows. No other fair
attempts these shows. And the great
cattle breeders associations would
not consider making exhibitions at
any of them if the matter were
preached.
Evening ADJUSTMENTS.

introduce evening entertainments and
the only state fair which has made
them success. A feature of the
