New Buildings.
The new buildings, of course, are the
FIRST additions that will be noticed by the
public. The new machinery hall, promi-
nently visible upon an elevation east OF
the race track has an area of lao by 24O
feet. It will accommodate 14o exhibits
the largest display Of machinery ever seen
on the grounds Of any state fair.
AT the other end Of the Hanline en-
closure farmers will promptly discover the
new swine exhibition building, said to be
the largest in America This structure,
l44x1e0 feet. provides 1913 pens and gives
ample space to 800 swine.

AS the result of opening the new ma
chinery hall, the old horticultural build
ing, occupied last year by displays or
vehicles, will serve this season as the
wornen's building, and will afford the
ladies four times more space than they
could beautify at previous fairs. The
game and fish exhibits. which were shown
last year in the main building, have been
transferred to the former women's build

Buildings Crowded With Good Things.
In those departments Of the fair that
are necessarily familiar the number OF ex-
hibits has much increased. The main
building Is so crowded that belated ex-
hibitor who was searching Saturday for
unoccupied space 3x4 feet, was compelled
at last to accept corner Of the superin-
tendent's private Office. In the dairy
building, which has been entirely refitted,
the exhibits Of dairy machinery and sup
plies are half again as numerous as last
year, eclipsing every record. The d1vis-
