EXHIBIT
At County Fairs By Expert
ment Station
Knox County Not Included
In The List

The Ohio Experiment station has
Just issued Circular 101, in descrip-
tive of the fair exhibits which are now
being sent out annually to a number
circular commentaries, in a sense,
the holding of the first agricultural
fair in America, which was held at
Pittsfield, Mass, just one hundred
years ago.: in the summer of 1910.
The Station made exhibits at coun-
ty fairs as early as 1891, and did so
occasionally until 1905, when the gen.
eral policy of making fair exhibits was
adopted. Since that year, when seven
fairs were visited, the requests for the
exhibit have been so numerous as to
make it necessary last year to send
out duplicate exhibits, which reached
twenty fairs. In all, fifty exhibits have
been made in forty counties. For this
year exhibits are being prepared
which will reach twenty-six fairs in
the following counties: Allen, Ash.
tabula, Athens, Auglaize, Belmont
Champaign, Coshocton, State, Greene
Guernsey, Hamilton, Hancock, Hardin
Harrison, Lorain, Lucas, Marion, Me
dina, Mercer, Miami, Morrow, Musk
ingum, Putnam, Scioto, Seneca and
Washington.
The material composing the exhibits
is not entered in competitive classes
1t is not display Of fine products
1tis illustrativeoft the experiment work
of the Station. Each feature is
graphical presentation of some great
truth. These truths are so presented
as to make most enduring impress
sion on the mind Of the visitor One
illustration will show the character OF
the whole exhibit: In the display last
year was placed the entire product of
two apple trees which stood in the
same orchard only 80 feet apart--one
sprayed and the other unsprayed. The
remarkable difference in both quality
and quantity of the fruit spoke for the
better orchard methods in more elo-
quent terms than the platform speaker
or the printed page could employ.
The exhibit Is accompanied by rep
resentatives of the Station and others
familiar with its work to explain the
exhibit and tell the farmers, and 9th.
ers interested, of the work of the sta
ton. The Station has provided a
large 35x60 feet tent under awhich to
disply the exhibit. There is no charge
and every one interested Is welcome
Every farmer in the above named
and in nearby counties should make
an effort to see the exhibit this year
The illustrated circular is being sent
to the regular mailing list and to 9th
ers upon request to the Ohio Expert
ment Station at Wooster, Ohio
