In anothr column will be found the
~treasurer's report of the Brookings
County fair. 1t plainly shows what
can be done by work and disposition
TO pull together. In two years the
association, by beginning with nothing,
has grown until today it is one of the
leading county fairs of the state and
the report of the treasurer shows the
healthy condition in which the officers
of the association starts in with the
year 1909, giving assurance that this
year the Brookings County fair will
be better than ever.-Bruce Herald.
One of our neighboring exchanges
speaks out as follows: When a news
paper man has yelled himself
hoarse trying TO persuade people to-
%patronize home merchants, and Incl
dentally stumbles onto the fact that
some of the fellows he is trying to
protect are sending away for their job
printing or using printing matter sent
out by baking powder houses or other
concerns, it rather shakes his faith
il mankind, and makes reciprocity look
to him like a lead dime with a hole in
it."
