6, I AND 8
Are the Days Set and the Man
agement Is Doing It's Part
To Make The Third
Annual A Three
Time Winner

This is the third year of the existence
of the Day County Agricultural Asso-
citation and the two preceding years
have been very successful. The man.
agement this year desires to eclipse all
former efforts and are therefore exert
ing their greatest efforts. The pre-
MUM list was out early. The premiums
to be paid are most liberal. The races
will be all that can be expected from
an association which is not a member
of regular circuit.
In addition to the regular program
the management has made arrange
ments for the attendance of Professor
James Wilson, of the Brookings Agri-
cultural college, who is recognized as
one of the very best lecturers for the
benefit of farmers who ever stood upon
platform. Professor Wilson will
deliver lecture in the hall at the fair
grounds-if the weather is inclement-
otherwise will talk from the grand
stand. No farmer can afford to miss
hearing him.
Many free attractions have been
secured and the management is con-
stantly getting in touch with others
which are sure to give pleasure to all.
A novelty horse race-walk a half
mile; trot half mile and run half
a mile is one of the stunts provided by
the program committee. another is
novelty automobile race where barrels
will be placed upon the curves certain
distance a part and the machines will
be compelled to wind around them
without tipping over the barrels.
The exhibits of grains and grasses
which have come in so far are very
creditable but our former friends
are urged to bring in their samples and
leave them with the secretary or with
the president
