by students. from crude beginnings to
finished articles that would be a credit

instructors and the application of the
students. An oak roll-kop desk, six feet

on which is beehive and around &c are
a number of bees ingeniOusly arranged
in a thin gauze which gives a decidedly
pleasing effect While the exhibit shows
every stage of sugar making from beet
seed TO the granulated product ready
for market, yet the primary intent of
the effort is to show the performances
of the soil of the Bear River valley
which is irrigated by the sugar COM
psny's system. The collection contains

The fruit display or the Utah State

the main fair building. but the greater
part of the display is made In HOrti-
cultural han. just erected north of the
main exposition building proper, and
here the fruit display was tastefully
arranged on plates and shelves, max
ing "a very attractive showing Some
changes were noticeable in the eXhib-
itors, some Of the older ones dropping
off and younger ones taking theiS
places. Tt is notable that some of the
