victorious and send their ex- hibits to the State Fair to com pete in the larger contests where blue ribbon is a certificate of high merit in the state.
 County Supervisors can en- courage their own people in the following ways:
 1. By giving financial aid to local and county fairs.
 ?. By giving financial assist ance to every county Fair Com missioner in the collecting of exhibits for the State Fair.
 3. By offering special prizes at the State Fair to those from their county who compete and win at the State Fair.
 The State Fair gives purses for thorough bred and harness horses restricting competition in certain classes to Arizona horses. Counties could give additional purses or prizes upon the con- dition that the winner comes from their county.
 The Fair Commission has of fered for several years hand some $500 loving cup to the county making the best agricul- tural exhibit at the State Fair. The county winning the cup twice keeps possession oe the same.
 Maricopa has won this cup once and Yavapai once. There will be a great contest between the two counties this year. It would be fine thing if some other county would step in this year and take the blue ribbon away from both of them.
 We hope the Boards of Super visors and the different Fair Commissioners from each of the fourteen counties of the state will carefully consider the sug- gestion in the above letter and spare no effort in making 1913 the banner year for Arizona
 Respectfully,
 c. B. WOOD, Secretary of the State Fair.

HARRISON GROUP SHIPPING.

A. w. Critteuden was in the city the early part of the week, looking after the shipment of a carload of ore, which was brought in from the Harrison group. Shipments will be made from Bloxton.
 The ore will run about $75 to $50 to the ton, according to MT. Crittenden. A new vein was opened up last week, some choice specimens of which were brought in. No assay of this ore has yet been made, but old timers say it looks much better than that being shipped.
 The Harrison is one of the oldest mines in the district, and was located by Senator Harri sons cousin in 1889. Senator Harrison is now the principa owner in the mine, although the lessees, MesSrS. Crittenden Ewing and Fessler, own foul claims adjoining.
 The ore from the Harrison contains copper, silver and gold the copper predOminating anC running about 30 per cent Work will continue as fast a: possible, and shipments made il carload lots.
