viii Become An Intra-County Affair
It is certain that the Ladysmlth
fair will ultimately become an IN
ira county fair. The location is there
and the cards are stacked for that
coming event. For one thing Lady
smith is the center of a wonderfully
fertile newly settled country in nor
thern and central Wisconsin. 1t VIII
more truly represent end exhibit the
north Wisconsin idea than anything
we have had heretofore. For one
thing, the soil is of the celebrated
red clay-clover and corn kind, the
! kind that has made the entire couA-
| try sit up and take notice. Then
again, this region is not we'll served
| bv the annual event now held at
Chippewa Falls.
don't believe in going out to
"knock" anything that stands for the
development Of this section of the
state and | take it that the emp
pewa fair has had it's effect along
that line. But | don't at all believe
that it is doing the best work posi-
BILE with that end in view. 1t draws
almost exclusively from the terri
tory Immediately around and further
south. AS such it can no doubt con
tinue and may have future; but
real, genuine red clay and clover,
dairy COW and corn fair must come
further into the region it is to serve
before it will yield the best results.
For such an enterprise the center
of Rusk county, at Ladysm1th on the
500, is the ideal spot, There Isn't
large town of it's own size between
Rhinelander and Barron and no fair
city between the former and st.
Paul. The enterprise would serve all
the territory from Trip0ll west, from
Gordon south, from Amery east and
owen and Marshfield, south.
It is the ambition Of the manage
ment of the Rusk county fair to III
timately make it serve all this large
territory The grounds are ideal; so
is the track. The buildings are just
right and will be added to right
along, and the whole layout is 8reat
for such an enterprise.
Will Be a Great Fair
The hustling management is l9ay-
ing no stone unturned to make the
fair a crown event. All the attrac-
tions are high class and will be fur
nished by the celebrated Barnes
syndicate. All who wish to see a
display of typical North Wisconsin
products and also like to rub up
against a lot of "a karat live hus-
tiers cannot afford to miss the
Rusk county fair at Ladysmith, on
Sept. 7, 8, 8 and 10, next.
The officers Of the fair are: j. +.
Mitchell, president; Tom Baker, vice
president; V. V. Miller, Secretary; L.
C. Streater, treasurer. Mayor of
Ladysmith, Hon A. c. Thompson.
