PLANS ON LARGER SCALE
ccopE OF EXHIBITION MAY BE EXTENDED TO ADMIT DISPLAYS FROM EVERY PART OF STATE. BOYS AND GIRLS CONTEST MEETS WITH APPROVAL.

Work was started in earnest on prep arations for the Pulaski County Far, which will be held on Oct. Is, 19, 20, 2l and 22. These dates were selected at an annual meeting held at Judge Asher s office in the new courthouse on Monday, .Iune 2l. Officers were elected as fol lows:
 President, Judge Joe Asher.
 First vice president, J. R. Alexander.
 Second vice president, c. J. Griffith.
 Treasurer, Charles S. Stifft.
 Secretary, John c. Small.
 D;rectors: c. G. Price, H. l.. Rem mel. Max Heiman, J. D. Arnold, IL. F. Auten, James Borough, Charles E. ray Tor. J. F. Faucette, the president, two vice presidents and the treasurer.
 The fair will be held again at For oct Park. where the association has SIX evbibit buildings, booths and equipment sufficient to meet the needs or all eAni- bition much larger than last year.
 It is the intention to open the 1alr with big school and agricultural dls- nlav. rivaling that of last year, which was participated in by 10000 children representing nearly every school ln the county and all of the schools of Little Rock and Argenta.
 Prizes will be given to the communl- ties making the best exhibits, to the farmers making the best exhibits and TOT the best display of each kind of farm product-corn, grasses, cotton, Vege- tables and fruit. The display of live stock and poultry will be on much larger scale than last year, accordlhg to the plans as outlined by Judge Asher. The Woman s Department, which was one of the crowning features of last year, will be elaborated upon.
 It is probable that the fair will pe- come statewide in scope pefore the plans are completed, as 1t IS the lnten- tion, in the event that Hot Springs does not have a fair, to invite the farmers of the State to exhibit their products at Little Rock and for this purpose additional prizes will hS'prcwided.
 The gathering of agricultural exhibits from over the State will not in any way interfere with the county fair plan. The two will be kept as distinctly separate as if one fair were held here and the other in Hot Springs, as has been the custom. The county exhibitors will com pete only with themselves for the county prizes, of which there will be as many as in former years. After winning a county prize the products of the Pulaski county farmer may compete in the State contest with farmers from other coun- ties. This arrangement will certainly bring to Little Rock fine display of farm products, live stock and poultry and will provide an entertainment that every farmer will want to see. A committee from the Pulaski County Fair Associa- tion is in communication with the officials of the Arkansas State Fair at Hot Springs and expects to bring about an ar rangement that will be of mutual satis- faction.
 One thing that will give the local fair State prominence, if no other, is the plan, which has been accepted by the fair association, to bring the exhibits of the boys' and girls clubs here from the vari- ous counties of the State in which the government has organized club work. Prof. w. J. Jernigan, the government agent who is in charge of this work in Arkansas, has proposed to bring the prize-winning teams from each county, if the prizes Gan be provided and the entertainment eff the boys and girls ar
