The Bossier banner. [volume] (Bellevue, Bossier Parish, La.) 1859-1952, 1910-11-10

In winning the blue ribbon Bossier Par
ish has achieved her fourth victory over
her competitors, having secured this COW
eted prize at all the State Fairs except that
of last year. We still have the "Blue
Ribbon Fair" and we are proud of it.
The showing not only reflects excellent
products and good management, but dem
onstrates beyond doubt that Bossier
Parish has unexcelled soils that are intel
ligently cultivated. The four blue ribbons
that have been taken by the parish are of
far-reaching advertising value and we feel
that our readers are fully cognizant of the
worth of this to the parish as whole.
Once again urrah for Bossier Parish,
the s'Blue Ribbon Fair and its manage
ment! They are all winners.
Below is a partial list of those to whom
premiums were awarded at the Parish
Fair. We expect to give the names of the
winners in the other departments in our
next weeks issue.
