lished a list of the premiums awarded
to Yellowstone county for it's collect

be remembered that there were four
of them-for the best exhibit or
grasses and forage plants, for the
largest variety of products, for the
best exhibit Of vegetables and root
crops, for the best display and ar
rangement of exhibit. This OF itself
was remarkable achievement and
one OF which the people of the county
were rightly proud. But this was nos
all that Yellowstone did at the fair.
In the matter of individual exhibits
the county was also we'll up toward
the head. 1t had the best driving
team there, the best mare and the
second best blooded trotting stallion,
and it's trotter Outstepped all others,
while it's runners left their compete
tors behind.
| Products and Handiwork.
| In the products OF it's fields, or
