Flerre, 5. d., May 1.-THE outlook
for the state fair of 1910 is most flat
tering. Not before has so much prac-
teal interest been shown so early in
the season. I have a suggestion for
the management and IL they will adopt
1T | am sure they will win the appro-
patton of thousands of citizens and
give the fair a sort Of advertising
which they cannot buy with money.
Horse racing is the noblest of all
sports and 1 wouldn't give much for
the individual whose pulse does not
quicken a bit when a field of fast ones
come down the home stretch. Good.
clean races are the real attraction
which bring the crowds. Yet, not
w~lthstanding the enjoyment and keen
delight they have in the sport, there
are thousands who will not attend at
all and other thousands who go away
from races they do attend with their
tempers tried to the breaking point
and physically tired out by the endless
and yexatious delays, the time spent in
Jockeying and scoring and warming up
which drags a program that might be
run off in two hours into a long half
day, which ends only when it becomes
SO dark that the races can no longer
be seen. | attended the state fair last
fall where a splendid program of the
best western talent was provided and
where a vast crowd was assembled and
the dissatisfaction upon the grand
stand was universal. In one race 40
minutes We're used up in scoring after
the heat was called. Personally l left
the grandstand at dusk, where I had

of physical labor.
Ihere is no good sense in such
methods and 1t lies within the province
or the management of the state fair to
cut them out and adont r,las tbot Iii
