New State Fair Stock Pavilion
Ready for Cattle.
Building Was Erected at Cost
of $4,000.
DE HAS TURNED,
Brisk Fall Season Has Been
Ushered In.
New Homes Being Erected on
Every Hand.

Those who flock from far and wide
to the state fair week after next, will
have the opportunity to see a remark
able horse and cattle display housed in
one of the finest stock pavilions in the
United States
The livestock pavilion designed by
Architect John F. Stanton, and erected
by Contractor Henry Bennett at a cost
of SIS, 900 is now completed. It presents
a picturesque appearance, being con-
structed in mission style and finished in
rough cast cement There are numer-
GUS feature effects peculiar to the
style of architecture which makes the
general appearance pleasing in the ex-
IRENE.
The building is 156x23O feet, and will
accommodate 532 head of cattle or
horses. AS a cement floor is hard on
the feet of the livestock, the floor is
of hard earth, and is covered with
bed of shavings.
For the sake of sanitation the venti-
Iating ARRANGEMENTS are perfect, dozens
of windows in an overhead extension of
the building above the stalls providing
fresh air in abundance. The roof of
the structure is supported by massive
fir columns, and the stalls are OF the
same material.
At one end of the building are rest
rooms 16x3O feet for both men and wo-
men and an office has been provided for
the judges in the cattle department.
This room is 16x16 feet in size.
H. B. Howard, who acts as electric
light commissioner of the fair, is in
stalling Mazda lights over the en-
frances and within the building. These
will give a clear white light resembling
daylight as nearly as it is possible.
The building will look resplendant
with numerous pennants and hagS hoat-
70 fc md
roof at night the powerful search light
which the fair management mas pur-
chased will project its beams Tor a dis
tance of eight miles.
Stockmen over the state are highly
pleased with the new building and have
entered their cattle and horses in large
numbers When the building was first
planned Secretary H. L. Cook was won
dering how it would be possible to MI
it, but now the serious problem is how
to accommodate all the livestock.
Building permits were issued this
week for the erection of seven new res
licences at an average cost of $500. II
has been some time since a permit was
issued for a business building, but the
record for new homes is good one
More building of dwellings Ito the
square inch is being done in Elmhurst
than to any other section OF the city
Building activities in this addition are
confined within space two blocks wide
and three blocks long.
There are now ten new homes build
ing in Elmhurst.
