TIME TO GET READY FOR THE
NEXT FAIR.

LYON county did so well at the State
Ea;r this wear. without halt Trying,
that She ought now to begin prepara-
mons for an exhibit next year. Win.
out a doubt Lyon will have fair OF
her own next year; Churchill county
will also have fair, and possibly
other counties. In view OF tins the
Times would make the suggestion
that all of the county fairs Ink dates
previous to the date of the State Fair,
50 that all of the counties which hold
fairs can have their respective county
eXhibits--or the best OF tneiii-Seii' W
the State Fair
The holding OF the State Fair first
will not give the counties as good a
chance as thew would have II all OF
the county fairs are held hrst y
three or four dav fair tor any county
is long enough too. =.
In regard to our own county iair II
would seem that some kind OF incen-
tive should be given early IN the sea
son for the farmers to strive tor the
best exhibit. Whether the CONNER
cial Club could take this matter up or
not we are not prepared to say, but
some inducement should be offered so
that farmers would give special at.
tention to raising something out OF
the ordinary. Should it be understood
that a small prize was to be gwen TO
the farmer who raised the best ex-
hibit of barley, wheat. oats, corn, al
falfa. spuds, onions, etc, besides the
regular prize to be given at the TAR u
might induce the farmers TO pay spec
ial attention to crop OF any one or
more of the above named products.
Then there might be offered prize
for some of the things not generally
grown here. such as celery. eggplant
salsify and a number of things that
have never before been tried IN this
valley. You never can tell what may
be raised here in this land OF richJand
fertile soil until YOU trv.
IF the farmers knew that there were
70 be extra prizes besides the ones to
he awarded by the county fair and the
State Fair it would be worth while 10
hepin preparations now for raising the
finest of some kind of a crop. A
friendly rivalry would spring up
amongst them and thew would give
their croDs better attention with this
end in view. Even if thew did not Sc
cure the prize their extra effort would
make their crop lust that much more
valuable and mrch good would be
thus ACCOMPLISHED,
