He Enjoyed 6he County Fair.

Review: C. 0. Gaudletz, form
erly Of Wibaux, who recently pur-
chased a ranch in Broadwater
county and is going there to live,
was a visitor to the Dawson Co.
Fair last week. Asked how he
enjoyed the Fair Mr. Gaudletz
replied:
The Fair is all right as far as
it goes, but it is altogether too
much Of a race meeting. The
idea of a county fair is to have
an agricultural and stock exhibit.
And nothing else would do the
county so much good as these.
Horse races fit in we'll with the
rest Of the Fair, for the raising
of fine horses is a part of ranch
work, but they should not be
made the whole thing.
The Fair association should
provide better stock stables, bet
ter Accommodations for poultry and
better arrangements for all sorts
Of exhibits. Until they do, Of
course the people will not take
fine stock there to stand and be
eaten up by the flies, nor will
they taky other exhibits if they
cannot be properly housed and
cared for"
The four-year-old steer exhib-
tied by Enoch Harpster - weight,
| 2, 100 pounds was raised by Mr..
Gaudlitz, who will make a speci-
atty Of this sort of thing on his
new BroadWater county ranch.

these cattle to Chicago and sold
them for &c per pound, tying

The bunch averaged 1850 pounds
