EXHIBITOR PLAN
OF ENTRY AT
Big FAIR

There seems to have arisen a
slight misunderstanding concerning
the terms of placing exhibits at the
Weld county fair and IL was an
nounced by Secretary Dan March to-
day that farmers desiring to exhibit
at the fair cannot do so free OF
/ charge through the Commerclal
| club of Greeley. The impression
seems to have been given out that
all farmers bringing their exhibits
to the Commercial club would have
them placed without any charge
whatsoever and would be in line for
premiums. A conference between
Secretary j. F. McCrery OF the Com
mercial club and Secretary March
Monday, resulted in the information
that each exhibitor must exhibit IN
his own name and must purchase
an exhibitors ticket at a cost OF 81.
This ticket includes admission to the
fairgrounds.
Secretary McCrery states that he
will appeal to the directors of the
fair association, but it is believed
that they will uphold the opinion Civ
en- by Secretary March. Many of
the best exhibits to be found in the
county have already been sent to
the Commercial club with the under
standing that they were to be placed
at the Weld county fair and later
taken to the Interstate fair at Den
YER. Secretary March desires the
farmers to understand that their ex-
hibits must be placed in their own
names and on the conditions cited
above.
Buildings for the women's display
and other exhibits are almost COM
pleted and force of men is employed
each day at the new fair grounds.
The grandstand is being remodeled
and the track is being worked out
and placed in good condition for the
races. All persons are requested to
view the baby carriage displayed in
the show window at the NJ. J. Neill
companys store. This car
riage is to be given as a prize for
the finest baby in Weld county at
the great baby show to take place
on Thursday at the fair
The directors of the association
will hold meeting not later than
Saturday of the present week.

PREFER WOMEN

Several Of the largest wholesale
houses in England that epare for the
market trade essential oils, which are
used by manufacturers of perfumes and
toilet lotions. and also by confectioners,
candy makers. and patissiers. employ
women in laboratory work They say
they prefer women TO men because they
pay greater attention to detail, and are
more economical
The latter trait renders them espe-
