9t1C ING IN 1918 WILL COMPRISE ",%HERS FROM OTHER BIG
 EXPOSlTlONS.
Mana Ge.nent Is Gratified at the Pros pes for the Biggest Showing in
 History of Fair.

mere will be some big special features at the 1913 stock exhibit at the State Fair, which will be on q greater and grander scale than ever.
 One of these features will be the exhibition for the first time in the south of herd of Dutch belted cattle lhese remarkable animals were zeal oualy guarded by the Holland govern ment for centuries and it is only with III very recent years that any of them have been exported from that country.
 It seems right that this exhibit should be made by an Arkansan and .he herd promises to attract more than statewide attention, as the breeders Of the country regard this strain Of the borfa as the coming combination beef and dairy cattle.
 The Live Stock Department of the i2l$ fair will surDass in size and qaal- It% Of exhibit and in importance to the people of the state any former eX- hibi1 of live stock in Arkansas. This 7as evidenced by the fact that the national breeders association in all classes of animals have given the Ark ansas State Fair full recognition this ear and have offered inc national as. Sociation premiums for prize winners. II is only at the greatest state fairs of inc country that such recognition is accorded, and with the year 1913 the Arkansas exposition steps into it's rightful place as one of the big state fairs Cf the country.
 This means much to the farmers, the dairymen and stock breeders of Arkansas. At the fair will be shown the pick and choice of the great herds, pens and stables of the country. Here they will have an opportunity to study the different breeds of stock and determine for themselves what line of breeding is best adapted to the eli mate and conditions of Arkansas, and which breed will bring them the great est profit.
 The cattle breeders of Texas, OilIa- homa, Missouri, Kansas, Tennessee and many Northern apd Eastern states have been entered for competition while the most prominent breeders of horses, swine and sheep from every section will be al the fair with their blue ribbon winners.
 In the cattle department will be seen Dutch Belted Shorthorns, Here lords, Jerseys, Holsteins, Aberdeen Angus and Brown Swiss; in the swine department the always popular Duroc Jerseys, Poland Chinas, Berkshires Yorkshires and Tamworths; in the sheep pens the Cotswold, SouthdoWns Shropshires, Oxford Downs and MeM nos, and in the goat pens the native goats and the Angoras. Every class ot draft, driving and saddle horse vii be seen in the arena and at the horse show.
 The farmers of Arkansas will fint the coming fair the greatest showing of live stock and the best opportunity to see and study the different classes lIldL LldS eVtI UcSll CllClcu tllt pcOplt of the state.
 To meet the demand for more ex tensive entries the management is al ready providing additional facilitie: for housing and showing the live stock and both breeders and visitors vii | find at Oaklawn park the greates live stock arena to be found in thu South.
