arrangements will be a handicap for
the others, but will in no way retard
their preparations. The BiXby fair
will open September II. The grounds

everything will be in excellent condi-
ton long before that date. 1t is the
intention to urge upon the exhibitors
the necessity of having their EXHIBITS
In' place before the fair opens.
Practically everything displayed at
these township fairs will be on dis
play at the county fair, and are eX-
pected to add greatly to the merit Of

one of the features Of the coming

been engaged in feeding prize winners
for several weeks, and every one is
confident he will produce a specimen
of hog flesh which will make clean

1t is the intention to increase the
size of that section at the fair devoted
to the display Of live stock, as indi-
cations now are that there will be in

matter pertaining to the fair will be
