have more and he vier exhibits than
ever before and that the Horticulture
al Hall will be crowded to the limit.
The entire north and south wings will

cupy the east wing with a complete
display of Hansen's new plums and
other fruits. Professor Hansen will
demonstrate his new fruit improve

In this wing the college will also con-
duct a school in the art of budding
and grating fruit trees.
The space in the Dairy Building
is already spoken for. Farm sepa-
rators Will be exhibited and souvenirs

ed by various creamery supply hous-
es. The state dairy expert will run

Superintendents of the Machinery,
Poultry, Sheep and Swine, Horse and
Cattle departments report an increas-
ing number of exhibitors from a wide
range OF territory. The fair is
craving far beyond the hopes of
the most enthusiastic members of
the State Board of Agriculture, and
this is duly appreciated by outside
exhibitors. Several machinery COM
panies will increase the last years
display by four times. Others will
double their exhibits. Over ninety
machinery companies have already
entered for space, representing prac-
tlcally every state east of the Missou-
ri river. Thirty or more acres are
available for the great blowing con-
test, a feature not possible at many
other great state fairs.
