Many Take in the Annual Fair
at Iron River
Exhibits were Fine and Race
Part of Program was Very
Entertaining.

Wnlcn mas Doon nelO at Cno iron
River fair grounds Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday of this
week has been drawing large
crowds and will prove to be a
very successful fair.
The stock exhibit was much
larger than ever before, the stock
sheds at the fair grounds being
filled to overflowing. Some fine
animals were. on display at the
fair.
The showing of poultry was
small and the exhibit in the large
exhibit hall was not up to the
average. The showing of farm
and garden produce and fruits
were all good, but the number of
exhibits was small. This was
occasioned by the bad condition
| of the roads which prevented the
farmers from bringing their pro-
duce to the fair. The fancy work
department and the cooking de-
partment was up to it's former
standard.
e. Bryan and Mrs William
Goedeke were the principal ex-
hibitors from Washburn. Both
had good displays. E. Bryan's
farm display was especially good.
Among the outside exhibitors
VIII made a good showing were
j. F. Hauser of Bayfield, and John
Chromiski of Oulu. Both of these
gentlemen had grand display
from their farms.
The amusement part Of the
fair was very entertaining. On
Wednesday there was horse rae
ing, motor cycle racing, running
races, acrobatic stunts and a
sham battle. The motor cycle
race was very thrilling. Four
participated in this race, the
winner going 10 miles around a
half mile track in twelve minutes
and six seconds according to the
officials time. The horse racing
was also good. Andy Murray's
horse Arletta did not make a
very good showing, coming in
third in both heats. This horse
was said to be in poor condition
yesterday.
One entertaining feature of
the program was the Indian raid
upon immigrants. A family in a
prairie schooner was camped out
in the field in front of the grand
stand and a band of Indians
swept down upon them, firing
hundreds of shots. Finally when
the Indians were about to burn
the cabin over the heads of the
white people, the whites were
/ roCo,,oJ hxr Ofhor cot+1oro onI
the band of Indians was driven
away. The lynching of an
Indian was pulled off.
The automobile race could not
be finished on account of a heavy
rain storm.
There will be a fine program to-
day and the fair will be concluded
tonight.

Bayfield, County to Make all
Excellent Showing
Car of Fruit, Produce, Grains
and Grasses Sent to
State Fair.

Bayfield, county's exhibit to the
Wisconsin State Fair which is
being held at Milwaukee this
week is one that will open the
eyes of the people in attendance
as being one of the best ever
sent from the northern part of
the state and perhaps one of the
best county exhibits that has
been sent to the fair.
Under the direction Of a COM
mittee of the County Board Of
Bayfield, county the exhibit was
gathered during the past week
and was forwarded to Milwaukee
last Saturday. The exhibit con-
tained a fine showing Of fruits,
vegetables, grains, grasses and
dairy products. The exhibit will
be in charge of E. C. Stevens of
this city as superintendent and
Harvey Irish of Bayview and Mr..
Sykes of Salmo.
The loading of the car was
started at Bayfield, where the ex-
hibits from the northern part Of
the county were loaded. The
car was then forwarded to this
city and the products from this
region were loaded here. 1t was
then taken to Ashland junction
where the exhibit from the
southern and western part of the
county was put in.
Those who have charge of the
exhibit say it will be a fine one
when set up at the State Fair
grounds at Milwaukee and is one
that is bound to draw a good
deal of attention to this part of
the state.
Last year Bayfield, county cap
tured the first place for having
the best fruit exhibit at the fair
and it is expected that a much
better showing will be made this
year because the fair is being
held at a later date which gives
this region an opportunity to ex-
hibit more mature products.
Heretofore the Wisconsin fair
has been held at such an early
date that it was impossible to
get up a good exhibit from this
county and A. III. Wilkinson of
Bayfield, who is a member of the
State Fair Board used his in
f1uence to have the date changed.
The county Board committee
has worked hard in their endeav-
or to have the county make a
good showing and together with
those having charge of the ex-
hibit, are entitled to great deal
of credit for the showing made.
There is no better way to ad-
vertise a county than to have
it's products exhibited where a
large number of people will see
them and the money expended
annually in preparing for the
exhibit at the State fair is money
well expended.
