and size and are the property OF
Andrew Pongrat and Carl Unzeitig
The dogs have wagon and harness
and are said to be we'll trained for
driving.
All over the grounds are exhibits
of farm machinery, separators, farm
engines and every conceivable kind
of convenience for farm use. The
crowd was kept busy yesterday
looking at the various things exhibit
ed and seem well pleased with the
exhibits.
One criticism, however, might be
made of the management. There
seems to be. 4 lack of system all
through the departments. No one
seems to be sure of his particular
work, and the officers have no de.
finite method for doing things con.
nected with the fair.
