Prem,s ms for the Ladies'.

Tho management Of the State Fair has
aot forgotten the ladies this year by any
means. A review Of the premium list
shows quite the reverse to be true. and in
fact great many premiums have been
added to last years list in the ladies de-
partments. The Colorado women have
displayed such an interest in the fair
ever since its inception and the exhibits
made by them have been such a feature
OF the fair that this year the manage
ment has endeavored to give further en-
enlargement and wider field for their
handiwork. The department Of needle
and fancy work has been carefully re-
vised and enlarged. as has also the pan
try stores and cereal foods departments.
The date Of the fair this year is Septem-
Der "a to 10 and there will bo reduced
rstes to Pueblo on all railroads during
Fair week.
