AT THE SIKEST0N FAIR.

The swine exhibit promises to
be the largest exhibit in Missouri
outside of the State fair and the
management hardly knows where to
house all of the swine that will be
here. Some of the most noted
breeders in the state have ordered
pens and made entries.
Quite a lot of interest is being
taken in the egg laying contest in
the poultry department and the
poultry fanciers are entering many
pens for the contest. The pen is to
contain six hens of one variety and
the contest starts Tuesday morning
at 8 o'clock, and end the following
Saturday at one o'clock p. m. Many
special premiums have already been
donated to this department and a
great poultry show Is promised.
The usual big Midway will be
there with multitude of attractions.
One of the big features of the mid
way will be the pictures of the Flynn
and Johnson fight. They are said to
be the clearest pictures ever thrown
upon the screen and the only set of
these films now in Missouri
The big free attraction which the
fair always provides for its patrons
Will be the balloon racing contest be-
tween lady balloonists. There will
be several balloons in the air all at
one time all piloted by ladies.
The greatest treat that the man
agement expects to give is to the
farmers, when on Wednesday night
the only Sam Jordan will deliver his

cultural day and only 25 cents is
charged at the gate, The lecture is
