JUDGES ARE ENTHUSIASTIC.
Col r. p. Howell OF Denver. judge
IN the exhibit Of agricultural imple-
ments. said that he was surprised by
the showing OF the Inland Empire eN-
position. and that ne could hardly be-
lieve that Utah had made such rapid
progress In the last year
w j. Kennedy Judge of the draft
horses who rs one Of the greatest au-
thortles In that line IN the world, said
that the supervisors OF the ttah ialf
should visit the fairs Of other states.
for the purpose Of learning the meth
DDS OF other people so that they could
applv the results OF their Investigations
In getting up future fairs In Utah. "EN-
curslons OF the Utah fair supervisors la
every department to the fairs ~ other
states would spread the fame Of Itah.
and would show the people ~ those
states that Utah has her heart set IN
gaining "a great reputation for her state
fairs" he said.
Judge Kennedy stated that there are
no finer draft horses I'm the west than
those exhibited az this fair.

in this part Of the country before.
Frank J Hewlett. supervisor OF the
manufactures building, said lhe
manufacturing building was better this
year than ever before. The locally
manufactured inventions made new
and important feature These incluu-
I'd "a snrina wheel for automobiles a
new washing machine. and an auto

PLANNING ALREADY.
"Amonsr the speciai inducements Of
fered by the board Of fair directors TO
the manufacturers for fine exhibits this
wear was handsome loving cup. TOT
the finest and most artistic exhibit OF
Trtah made goods IN the building. TINS
brought on a hot contest. scores OF
visitors from the outside have re-
marked to me that they have seen no
exhibits ia manufactures Ia any OF
the other western states this year that
could compare with those Of Titan AT
this fair. Many people who have seen
the A. y. p exposition tell me that
nothing i'm the manufacturers eNhloits
at Seattle could touch ours. This IS
truly remarkable But the board of
directors means 10 bring out increased
manufacturing exhibits Of Utah al the
1910 fair and with this purpose In
view. / have no doubt that more ana
better prices viii be offered the winners
next wear. We are laying our plans
already This fair has made us all so
enthusiastic. that we shall carry on
big fair boosting campaign from the
end OF one state exposition 10 the be-
ginning Of the next Already, eager
exhibitors are making applications FOR
floor space in the manufactures building
for the next fair. But II there is only
half the increase IN the number and
size Of the exhibits In the next year
that there has been during the last II
months. IL will be absolutely necessary
20 provide more space. and another
building Is really an imperative need.
"The most pleasing feature of this
fair is that in spite OF all the prizes
offered to whet the keeoest rivalry be-
tween exhibitors I'm various depart
ments. there have been no protests
gainst the awards. This is all the more
remarkable from the fact that never
before have there been so many mag
nificent exhibits In all lines or manu-
factures in the history Of Utah fairs.
Indeed so close We're many Of the con-
tests that the judges had great diff
Guilty in choosing the winner on points.
and in several instances It was neces-
sary for the judges to resort TO ballot
ing.
.The main feature OF the fair. to my
mind was the astonishlngly large
number OF strictly home manufac-
lures"
