ers of Missouri at the Tenth An
nual State Fair to be held at
Sedalia October l to Z. Missouri
has many successful corn grow
ers, and there will be a great show
Of this, one of the states fore
most products, but none of the
exhibits are likely to attract more
attention than that of Governor
Hadley's, not because of the fact
that he is Missouri's 5 chief execu-
tive, but because he raised the
corn on his Cole county farm, the
crop this year paying for the laid
end was the first crop ever prp-
duced on this tract, which was a
little over year ago, timber
land.
Governor Hadley is very proud
of his success as a corn grower,
and it will be his delight to enter
into competition with the corn
growers of Missouri at the Great
State Fair.
The Agricultural exhibit pro-
misses to be one of the best ever
seen here and it will be a great
attraction. and one that will inter
est every farmer, no matter how
far advanced he is in the science
of farming, to go over this exhibit
and it is to be hoped that every
reader of this paper who possibly
can do so, will visit the State Fair
at Sedalia and go through the
Agricultural Building.
