No it's none too early to think abok

ever before. More money will be spent
on premiums than ever before, faster
set OF races are promised from present
indications and a free daily program Of
special entertainments has been booked
that beats anything you ever saw at
any County Fair. An entirely new ides
is going to be shown that promises to be
worth the price of admission in itself
Daylight fireworks are to be displayed
No more having to go out after night,
with Jack the Huggers and business
like mosquitoes lurking on every corner
You will see the fireworks in the broad
light of day and they are going to be
dandies, too.
The Brown County Fair is well under
way and the last two days of August
and the first Of September promise to
be big ones in the history of the Fan
Association. County Fairs dxn't lust
run themselves. They take long and
careful planning and lot of push.
For some time now, VIM. Engelberh the
hustling secretary of the Fair 1Asso-
cation has been on the job and has
last succeeded in lining up set of at
fractions that would be credit to any
fair.
The free attractions of acrobats anc
jugglers which have always been so
popular have been augmented this Yea,
and more attractions than ever befon
are to be offered. The Toxic japanese
are said to be the best troupe the Mika-
dos kingdom has yet sent us. Their
are three people in the troupe and they
give two acts. Their juggling ana
balancing is far above the ordinary
and they are guaranteed to please. The
Flying Fishers also number three
athletes. Ground and lofty tumblim
are their specialities and they are in e
class by themselves at this difficultwork
They will stage a one act performance
that is said to be thriller. Howard and
Campbell are coming to chase away the
blues from anybody whose entries fallen
to take as many blue ribbons as the Owner
had fondly hoped. These clever enter
talners are handing out an entirety-nex
mixture of aerilism and buffonerv that
Will never cease to inspire wonder and
laughter.
Stewart and Mercer will give a two
act exhibition that is one of tho hos,
offered in an unusually attractive list
OF gymnastic stunts. They have az
entirely distinctive set of acts on the
trapeze and Roman rings. They s1,au
some thrillers to show, it is said,
But the new feature upon which. the
management prides itself is an ent;relv
new wrinkle in fireworks. Dawipm
fireworks are to be shown for the first
time in New Ulm. The method a
presenting these is novel; Big bombs
are to be fired from mortar imbedded
IN the ground. The bombs are h,,rlad
to heighth of five hundred feet and
there explode. The exploded bomb
gives forth lifesize figures of one sort az
another which float down before the
audience, the effect is far more lastin.
and prettier than the usual type If
fireworks. Equestrian riders will float
thru the air. together with flags Of M
the nations, the GODDESS of Liberty MIN
be seen with the American EAGLE and
Old Glory. The figures shown will mn
thru wide range Of designs to please
and amuse everybody. Showers Of iape-
nese umbrellas and other souyei1nmx
will also be the delight Of the little folk
The idea is q novel one and promisx
to add great deal to the eniovme,r
Of the fair.
The premium list for entries in every
department will be large this ven.
