THE BIG CIRCUS
COMING
The Yankee Robinson Show
Will be in HarIowton
On July 9TH.

The Ringling Bros, in an inter
view in New York in April of this
year, made the statement that
they owe their success to the great
est of all showmen, Yankee Robin
son. For two seasons the Ring
ling show endeavored to pilot their
show on the sea of circusdom but
met with disaster each time and
wended their way back to Baraboo.
Finally Yankee Robinson took the
then young Ringling Bros. up and
with the Yankee Robinson & Ring
ling Bros. Show made a success.
This continued for some time, final
ly Yankee Robinson and the Ring
ling separating. Today these two
mammoth shows continue to rule
the world of circusdom and each
one is credited with having the
best circus performance and men
agerie carried with tented organic
ations. Both shows are still on
friendly terms, each one contented
with the territory allotted them
each season. The only possible
friction between the two big shows
is during the winter months when
some big foreign act is desired by
each show. The Yankee Robin
son Shows has the Ringlings best
ed in this regard, having formed
an alliance with the great vaude-
vile interests of the country and
having the only high-class vaude-
vile house operated on the big
circuit. However the early friend
ship of these two shows is so
strong that Ringlings are loaned
many features not desired by the
Yankee Robinson Shows; for in
stance, the Patty troupe, now the
big feature of the Ringing show,
was exhibited by the present man
agement of the Yankee Robinson
Shows two seasons prior to the
Ringling engagement. Both shows
are better equipped than ever this
season. There is no truth in the
report that both shows will COM
bine for the Seattle Exposition,
statements to the contrary not
withstanding.

COUNTY FAIR IS
THE NEXT
Premium List About Ready
And Preparation Work
Being Pushed.

The executive committee and
Secretary J. H. Whalen of the
Meagher County Fair Association
have been hard at work for the
past week and the preliminary
work Of the fair is rapidly round
ing into shape. The programs are
almost completed and will be ready
for the printers in a short time.
From the present outlook the fair
this year will be one of the best
county fairs in the state. While
the date is a month i'm advance of
last year and will prevent the ex-
hibiting of some mature agriculture
al products, the season is much in
advance OF year ago and the dis
play of farm and garden products
will furnish an excellent exhibition
of the agricultural resources of
Meagher county. While the coun-
ty commissioners have been liber-
al in their support of the fair
other funds will be necessary to
make the fair complete success.
The executive committee have
formulated plans for raising funds
that should appeal to every resi-
dent of the county that is inter
ested in it's progress and develop
ment. If the people of Meagher
county and especially the eastern
end desire to see the fair a success
they must give it their undivided
support, both moral and financial
Now is the time for assistance.
Let's all boost for the fair and
make the Meagher county fair sec
ond to no county fair in the state.
Remember that the fair is only
two months off and the utilization
of every day will be required to
assure complete success Help
the fair association and do it now.

Should Sbrend Over State

F. NJ. briggs. superintendent of the
school for the blind at Ogden and a rep
resentatlve of the Weber club, is one OF
the enthusiastic workers ror the state
League. He said; "There is no question
in the world of the absolute need OF this
organization and the bigger it is the bet
ter. 1t should spread over the entire
state as every nook and corner OF the
be able to do. Mutual interests viii
cause the league to bo effective. We must
help each other to increase the popula- :
tion OF Utah by bringing the right kind
mines and build up every industry In the
state. The natural agricultural resources
OF the state are unlimited and yet in the
west doubled their population. Utah was
not counted among them and we have
everything the other states have and
more to attract homeseekers. The west
is going to keep on growing and 1t seems
to me that II is high time Utah awak-
cned to the need OF some organization,
call 1t what you Will, that will he the
crease. Ogden and the interests in tina
section Of the state are eager TO help in
pushing forward the interests of the
whole state. We believe we have the
or as rich as any other In tine state,
and we are glad to welcome any move
ment That will help fiji up the farming
land What benefits us will benefit the
whole state. Last year our twelve can
ming factories used 20.000,000 empty cans
shipped them In. Our peach crop re-
quired 10000 boxes TO pack the fruit.
Our beet sugar industry in Weber county
alone netted farmers 5000, 900 last year
and there Ia over half million invested
In canning factories. These industries
