Chouteau County Farm Exhibits


Chinook Opinion.
The county fair association and the
state fair commissioners for Choutea u
county will cooperate with the Grea,
Northern officials in the matter of Sc
curing agricultural exhibits this year
Chas. B. Griffin, immigration agen,
OF the railway, is making a field can
vass of the country along the line in
Montana to induce the farmers TO save
out good specimens of grain for exhi.
bition purposes. James Griffin as di.
rector of the agricultural exhibits at
the county fair and in charge OF
Chouteau county's exhibit at the State
Fair Is urging the farmers along the
same line. The Great Northern will
furnish q q to take the county ex-
htbit to Helena after it is gathered
and will bring it back again to Chi.
nook for the county fair. The rail.
way will then have the opportunity to
take some of the exhibits for the fur
nishing of their exhibit cars and for
showing at numerous fairs and exhi-
bitions at which the company will
have Montana agricultural exhibits.
The canvass that the different inter-
ested parties have made has revealed
the fact that there are many excellent
fields OF grain and other farm products
that will furnish specimens that will
make . creditable showing for this
section in any exhibition. Every eff.
fort is being made to get the growers
