Premium lists for the various valley
fairs arc most all out now, and perusal
OF those received shows that the Prov.
ers County Fair Association has made
the largest and most liberal list of prem.
iums of any in the valley. In the farm
and garden department especially is this
noticeable, the list here being over twice
as large as that Of the nearest competi.
tor. In all, our list shows 200 more
premiums than that Of the Rocky Ford
association. This liberal offer on the
part of the fair association should b>
rewarded with big display that will
give visitors a fair idea Of what thii
great country can do in the way Of rails
ing crops. The farmers who exhibit
get an indirect benefit far in excess o.
the amount of the premiums.
