STARK COUNTY FINE DISPLAY
Bismarck, October 1.
Editor PRESS:
The Industrial Exposition opened its
doors today to the public. The great
majority Of booths were in a state of
unpreparedness.
The weather is perfect. and it is
expected that a little later there will
be a GREAT many persons who will come
and see the large potatoes and the
mammoth pumpkins they are dandies,
II can assure you, and if you do not
come shall always think that you
ought to have done so. because it is q
liberal education.
Stark county was ready with her booth
and comment has been favorable as to
its appearance when I was neal enough
50 that l could second the motion.
I hope that the people of Stark county.
to whom this exhibit belongs. will at
tend the big show some day while it is
on the boards. as they will never know
from somebody's say so whether it ia
really worth the money it has cost until
they see for themselves.
