EXPECTS LARGE CATTLE
 EXHIBIT AT FAIR
Secretary Beckwith Will Have to Erect Tents to Accommodate Them All.

The cattle exhibit at the county fair this year will be so large that Secre- tary William w. Beckwith is making arrangements to house the surplus ex- hibits in tents.
 Not only is the cattle department crowded, but the stables, where there are already If horses housed, will be unable to accommodate all the horses, and the necessary steps to overcome the difficulty are being made by the secretary. It is expected that there will be in the neighborhood of 50 horses at the fair this year. The track has been put in first class con dition and the work will be completed some time this week. The track has been resurfaced and a Hartford horse man who intends sending his stable of horses here said Monday that the local track is the best twice around ring he has ever seen. He will enter his horses here in preference to the Hartford fair.

said that they wanted to have a game
of Marbles real game. where at
least q hundred Brownies played In 1t.
And then when they got the number
to one hundred they began to think 1t
was not large enough number.
Lets ask one hundred Gnomes to
play against us, suggested one
Brownie.
Good! That's fne!' they all cried.
"'And how about the fairies? asked
another.
LETS ask the Fairies to be the
Judges OF our game. and we will ask
the Fairy Queen to give the prizes
"T didn't know we were going to
have prizes, said another Brownie.
"Well, we must, you know, il we're
to ask the Gnomes to play against US,
and II we're to ask the Fairy Queen
and the Fairies to judge who wins the
game
",All right they agreed, but we
must hurry with our invitations
six Brownies offered to take the
invitations to the Gnomes to play Mar.
bles, and TO the Fairies to Judge the
winners of the game. And these six
Brownies dressed up in their best
brown velvet suits with their brown
velvet helmets on their heads.
They went in different way thar
they had ever gone before. and the
Gnomes and Fairies were so excited
at seeing them that for q long time
they could not understand what they
were saying.
For, you see, the Brownies did no
walk or fly or crawl when they wen
on with their invitations. Instead
they rode in carriages made of tige
lilies, which were drawn by eigh
green Toads.
THE Toads hoped along and drew
the carriages, and sometimes whei
the carriages upset, the Brownies di'
not mind in the least, but got right II
