PRIZE WINNERS
AT COUNTY FAIR
PROCLAIMED BY PUBLIC THE
BEST AGRICULTURAL FAIR
THIS YEAR.

As the fair falls farther into the
past, the people who were in attend
ance those two days see it more and
more as the biggest of it's kind ever
held here, and the best farm show
held in the Northwest this season.
Many had just returned from the state
or higher standard in exhibits here
than down there. Not few assert
ed that the agricultural building up
here made a better showing than that
at the state fair. To an outsider this
statement may seem bold, those who
attended the fair will see no exagera-
ton, but will agree to all.
One fact that was brought home
strong was the interest in live stock.
There were cattle there which would
be credit to any stock show. Of
special interest was pure bred
Shorthorn COW owned by Mr.. Lamber-
son which has record that is seldom
duplicated and very rarely excelled.
This cow has given birth to eight
heifer calves in as many years, all of
which have been up to this time on
Lamberson's Lakeview farm. Some
of these were among the five heifers
just recently shipped to Carlson Bros,
at Erskine, all of which brought high
prices.
Lively Horse Races.
In the ladies' driving race, Mrs. Ar
vid BOman won first money winning
the two first heats; Miss Marvel
Grange driving DR.. Franks horse,
came in close second.
The pony running race was won by
Clinton Winchester.
The novelty running race was won.
by Mike Ault of Wylie. so,,ea J,
all quarters, thereby winning the
whole purse.
Rosendahl End for the best appear
ing team hitched to wagon.
The amusement features were all of
high class, that is, with the exception
of the Flying Dutchman." The carni-
val company attracted large crowds
each evening. A feature that has
been passed up in all comments on the
fair is the part played by the local
band Every afternoon the boys en-
tertained the fair population with
hi, {lo,,
played from the pavilion in the Great
Northern park and drew a large
and appreciative street audience. Chas.
Grinder has worked patiently with
the BOYS and that he has succeeded in
his efforts was clearly evidenced by
their performance during these two
days. A fair without band would
be dead affair, so, hats off to !Chas.
Grinder and the band boys.
