OF RECEIPTS SHOW GROWTH
Some Of the Figures Used for This
Year Are Exact, Others Are Close

citation for Year Show Falling OF
Compared With 1910.

The receipts Of the county fair of last
week will exceed the receipts of the
1910 fair by about $1,000. This is the
estimate Of Secretary W. NJ. Clark,
! made from figures, some of which are
exact and others of which are close
estimates. The total receipts from the
fair itself. or as result of it were $10,-
1865 this year. compared with So
215.75. Neither sum. however. repre-
sents the total receipts of the associ-
alton for the year. They only repre-
sent the sums taken in from the fair
and are used for purposes of COMPARE
son of the two fairs and not of the busi-
ness of the association for the year.
The exact gain in receipts from the
fair this year, as compared with the
1910 fair. was ssS0.io. This sum may
be slightly increased or decreased later
when all the exact figures are obtain
able
Increase is General.
The recent fair showed an increase
in four of the FIVE important items OF
receipts from the fair itself. as COM
pared with a year ago The only de-
crease was in entrance money for race
horses This item may also show an
increase later. as the sum used for this
year Is only an estimate as the exact
amount is not yet known.
The privileges. ticket sales. and rent
for stall. and grounds all show SPLEEN

In addition to the usual gate admis-

Because the fair association during
1910 had other sources Of revenue that
brought in larger sums than during
1911. the total receipts Of the associa-

than they were last year. This decrease
