head, besides 27 dairy cattle. The rep
utation of Kansas as a cattle raising
state is sustained
Thompson Bros, Of Dover, are among
the biggest Kansas exhibitors. Clar-
ence White. of Burlington, also is one
/ of those who makes a good showing.
The Rapp Bros. of st. Edwards. Neb.,
are perhaps the biggest out of state
/ exhibitors.
An idea of the number Of the exAib-
its may be gaiped when it is known
that this year the cattle alone fill the
live stock pavilion while last year the
same building housed both the cattle
and horses. This year the horses Oc-
cupy another building, and fill it near
ly to its capacity And more cattle and
horses are said to be on the way here.
The judging of the dairy class, the
Hnlstei.s, Je. seys, Gucrnsevs and Swiss
will likely be completed before tonight.
Tomorrow the Shorthorns and Here
fcrds will be placed on parade and the
the judging is completed, all Of the an
ima1s will be paraded before the grand
stand.

Dairy Department.
Seventy-seven dairy cows are being |
exhibited by the various contestants
No listing is done in this department.
Poultry House Overlooking.
The old poultry house which more
than accommodated the fowls last fall
did not hold half of them this year and
it became necessary to provide two
tents for exhibit purposes. The large
new swine barns, also would not ac-
commodate the entries in that depart
ment and it became necessary today
to build additional stalls in a tent pro-
vided for the purpose. A large tent
between the cattle pavilion and the
horse pavilion provided room for two
hundred head of cattle and ponies
Twenty race horse stalls have been
built today for late entries, and last
night 1t was necessary to put up the
trotters in Topeka livery stables
This will give an idea of the magnl-
tude of the fair. There are three
times as many concessions as ever be-
fore and the hoarse voiced barkers can
be heard above the general din. The
fake shows that characterized the fair
two years were conspicuous by their
absence.
There is something doing on the
grounds all the time. The Patterson
shows on the Mid Way give a great
variety of entertainment and just to
stop and listen to the ''barkers'' and to
see the sample performers who are
