The Washburn leader. [volume] (Washburn, McLean County, N.D.) 1890-1986, 1905-07-21
A COUNTY FAIR ASSOCIATION.

for race track, ball park and Fair
Ground purposes. Different COM
mittees were appointed to complete
the organization to be known as
The Mclean County Fair Associ-
alton. %
The different committees having
the affair in hand will meet and
report. We believe this is a move
in the right direction and one which
will advertise the resources of the
county and will draw people from
a distance. All should work to-
gether for a successful outcome of
the proposition and we have every
reason to believe that the fair will
be a success. While it will not be
so large the first year, the resources
of the county we'll displayed would
make a whole fair in itself.
