ia DREAMS CAN1E TRUE.

IF DREAMS CAME TRUE.
If dreams came true
What would we do?
Well. I, for one
Would have some fun
And do small hurt
Parading in my undershirt.
And now and then
I'd startle men
BY twirling high
Up in the sky
In pleasant weather
A-kicking my two heels together.
Then possibly
You'd see poor me
Stand on my toes
On some ones nose,
And there recite
The "Curfew shall not ring tonight"
Upon the whole, twixtx me and you,
'Tis well our dreams don't all come true

reason to believe that this will
surpass any agricultural display
ever held in the western coun-
try. We want the products of
your farms, orchards and gard
ems that have been raised under
dry-farming conditions shown
there. Don't be tee ambitious
in the matter and think t h t
you must go to great expense.
Get together and show the world
what your section is capable OF
producing under right conditions
and the right kind of farming
You owe it to yourself and youl
community to do this.
But if you are going to under
take an exhibit, now is the time
to begin. A successful exhibit
is the result of studied design
and careful collecting If moi
too late, special platS or land anO
carefully attend them; lay aside
in cool, dark places grains and
fruits that ripen. or otherwise
treat the product in the best way
to preserve them, If you doubt
on matters of this kind, write tc

You will be surprised how fast
your collection grows. Start
yours and don't he afraid to try
it out at state and county fairs
before coming with it to the Ex-
position.
Business men, and especially
county commissioners, you have
"a big strike in this thing! You
can encourage growers of your
region to get together and
undertake the collection of ex-
hibits. Back up their efforts
