All entries must be made and exhlb-

The quantity of each sample of grain
sent should not be less than one-half the
size of the ordinary bundle of grain and
should be carefully tied so as to prevent
it getting damaged. There should be a
full bundle of flax. alfalfa and clover.
These grains and grasses should be
carefully packed in large boxes, with
sufficient openings to permit plenty Of
air to circulate through, so as to prevent
the grain from becoming heated or
moulded while in transit.
The larger the variety, the more value
is attached to it. Extreme care should
be used in selecting. arranging and pack
ing each exhibit.
The department will simply take the
exhibit from the boxes and display it,
concealing from the judges the name Of
the contestant and the county in which
the exhibit was gathered.
1t may prove advantageous to the ex-
hibitor to have the wheat, oats. barley,
rye, speltz and other grains stripped.
This will make the straw brighter and
more attractive Have each bundle Sc
curely tied with cord.
All grains and grasses should be
shipped by express, so as to prevent the
exhibit being kept in the boxes too
long, and thus avoid it having moldy
appearance. The department will pay
express charges. Consign all shipments
to,

several of the horses did their share of
work; one of the fearless riders was
thrown twice, but finally conquered his
horse. A young man by the name of
Archie Merrill, received first prize in the
bucking contest.
The horse races were very exciting
and. both the half mile and quarter mile
stretch were won by George Lyon, who
rode Walter Rays horse ''Quick Lady. :"
This horse seems to be some runner as
she covered the quarter stretch in 23H
seconds.

The second prize in the quarter mile
stretch was won by j. Meyers and the
