their products and the exhibits were the largest and most complete ever made by any of the three Northern Arizona Fairs.
 The Yavapai county display made under the direction of L. L. Bates Is the largest exhibit from one county but is not better than the splendid shows made by the two sections far ther north. The Verde valley apple exhibit of 150 boxes, which were ex- hibited by C. B. Coulson and C. C. Galloway, was probably the one that would attract the eye of the passerby most, for the big Black Bens appeared as if they would taste much better than they looked Many other dis plays of Yavapai's apples were made. Grapes, peaches, plunS and pears were also in the exhibit, fruit predominant ing although a good exhibition of vegetables and grains was made. A large exhibit of corn was also made As the visitor passed through the building his eye was attracted by the cut-glass jars of fruit and vegetables which are to form part of the per manent exhibit for the Chamber of Commerce. Processor F. B. Wood, who was on the job with his work, has received many compliments rela' tive to it,many who have attended the expositions on the coast stating that the appearance of the contents Of the jars is better than that of the ex- hibits at the big fairs in many in stances. Before coming to Prescott, Wood processed a part Of the dis plays at the San Francisco exposition. The jars seen at the fair were only a small part of the big exhibit Of pro cessed fruits the chamber will have. In one corner of the building was E. C. Evans, employed by the Chamber of Commerce to demonstrate the proper and improper methods of apple hacking. Evans was on the job and he lad way all his own of wrapping apples in paper and placing them in the boxes.
 Probably the biggest and best dis play of grains ever gotten together i, the entire State was that placed on exhibition by Coconino and Navajo counties. Yavapai's grains were left in the background compared with this display which was beautifully placed or background of Navajo rugs. Pota- toes, pumpkins, many other varieties oi vegetables and some fruit was in- cludcd in the exhibit F. o. Allen, the commissioner from Coconino county was in charge and accomplished th( decorating work.
