From Bcadle County.
G. May has prepared a splendid
exhibit from Beadle county, the at
Effectiveness of which is enhanced
by his arrangement Of the grains and
grasses in the small bundles and
placed on the wall, and is far the
best that has ever been attempted in
palace decoration. He has owe 20
varieties of grains and grasses in
his collection, including clover, bar
ley, oats, wheat, alfalfa and millet.
His alfalfa eXcites much comment in
that he has four cuttings displayed
which were made this season. The
corr varieties are emphasized by the
many kinds, and the wheat and
oats indicates that these grains have
amounted to a fair yield. Mr.. May
has brought many kinas of vegeta-
bles that have grown to prodigious
size in some instances.
Good Corn Exhibit.
Brule county's exhibit, under the
direction of P. v. LEM is attractive
because of the effort made to present
the corn crop of that county in good
shape and the indications are that
Brule is to be heard from in that re-
gard. The varieties are countless,
and the corn shows that it has been
bred we'll and has developed to its
full capacity. The wheat, oats, bar
ley, together with the vegetables and
fruits indicate a very successful year
in that section.
McCook Has Much Fruit.
McCook county is exceptionally

Strictly All For Corn.
Hanson county has devoted itself
strictly to a CORR exhibit and there
is nothing else displayed but this

is extremely proud this year. Con-
