dairy products and dairy machinery de-
partments this year. said Mr.. Judd,
who came from Portland today to con-
suit with Secretary Lea of the fair
board and look over the situation gem
orally. "The machinery hall is already
full to Overflowing with exhibits of all
kinds of dairy machinery and the indi-
cations are that there will be an ex-
ceptionally large and representative ex-
, hiDit of butter, cheese and all kinds of
dairy products this year. only wish
we had more space to accommodate
the exhibits and do justice to the dis
play of the extraordinary list of entries
