THE CHURCHILL COUNTY FAIR
VIII BE Held September Is, 16
II. Promises To Be Aus
picious Event.

The county fair of next month prom
ises to be the biggest event of the kind
ever held in the state, according to DR..
c. A. Hascall, the secretary of the
fair association. who says that his eff
forts are meeting with ready response
on the part of the people upon whom
the success of the fair depends In
fact, according to Dr. Hascail, rSs in
terest already manifested would spell
success and he and the officers and di-
rectors of the association are working
industriously to make the fair every
thing that local conditions will allow
The date has already been set for Sep
tember 18th, 10th, and 18th and there
Is possibility that the event will be
extended to include the 18th also.
CLARK 5 pavilion, the largest structure
in the county, has been selected as the
place for exhibit and is certainly adj
mirahly adapted for such an event.
There viii be ample room in the pavil-
for the exhibits Of every nature with
out erowding, and the abundance of
space viii allow Of proper grouping,
thus adding TO the attraetiveness of
The fair.
The stock exhibit will include, accord
ing to the secretary, specimans from
various parts of the county and state.
II viii be without doubt the best ex-
hibit of livestock ever seen in the state
Churchill county has some prize win
ners, and when they are augmented
with stock from other counties, it
means group of stock that would
attract attention anywhere.
DR.. Hascall is already making
arrangements for cheaper railroad
rates and it is hoped that the Southern
Pacific will grant reduction of fair
that will be general over the entire
state during the progress Of the fsir.
1t is pointed ont that the Churchill
county fair is the only event of the
kind in the state, and those who are
behind the movement are sincere in the
hope that il may be made an annual
event Of state wide importance.
The Southern Pacific Company has
always evineed deep interest in what
ever has been undertaken for the good
of this section and their cooperation
in the fair project will follow the asking.
DR.. Hascall states that his work
only includes the arranging of the ex-
hibits and that whatever sporting
events may occur will have to be pro-
yided by an independent committee, as
he has his hands full. 1t is hoped that
a race meet and baseball games can be
arranged, for the sporting end of
public event of this nature is equally
attractive TO many of those who will
be present, an exposition of our soil
producing qualities.
The fair directors will meet Saturday
evening to complete arrangements for
the event of next month and full at
tendance IS desired. subcommittee
will be appointed and the fair propa-
ganda outlined.

Well. | Guess This Is True.

According to the latest compilation
that has been made Nevada has four
champion baseball teams at the pres
ent time Elko, Lovelock, Reno, and
Falon. Elko claims the championship
was won on July 5th when it defeated
Loveloek after bribing two members
of the alfalfa team to throw the game.
Lovelock claims the game because 1t
might have won if the two players had
not sold out. Fallon claims the champ
ionship because it has defeated Love-
lock and Reno we'll, Reno never fails
to claim anything in sight from base
ball championships up to something
worth while Humboldt Star.
