found it next to impossible to get the
new horse barn and the shelter for hog
and sheep displays built, owing to the
scarcity of carpenters, but in nowise dis
couraged he has called to his aid nom
bers of the association from over the
county, who responded, allowing them
selves and their men to be drafted for
the work. which is now practically
finished. With such an energetic man
as sMr. Meiklejohn at its head there is
nothing left but for the fair held by the
association being q big success.
