TENDER, the state fair directors held
meeting in Helena 1t was the first
meeting of the board during the new
year and in view of plans outlined,
1t was an important one.
The premium classifications were
revised with a view of making the
fair better and bigger than ever, ac-
cording to P B. Snelson, secretary.
New classifications were to be added,
and others which it was believed could
be dispensed with as adding nothing
of merit to the fair were to be cut out.
Ever since Montana won the string
of sweepstake awards at the Panama
Pacific exposition in competition with
the world, there has been renewed ac-
tivity in the farming industry, and
present reports indicate that the Mon
tana state fair this fall will be far
superior to any ever held" said Mr..
Snelson.

Wallace, Ida, where, trestle and a
stretch of track were reported torn

Helena.-County commissioners all
over the state will be urged by the
state highway commission while away
on the tour of the state, to build roads
that will mean less cost in the trans
portation of farm products, according
to plans mapped out at a meeting Of
the commission.
The commission has left Helena for
Bozeman, where the first meeting was
to be held, thence to Big Timber,
thence to Columbus, thence to Billings
and thence to the remainder of the
county seats in Montana. Every county
in the state will be covered before
their return to Helena.
To accomplish the cheap haul of
farm products, the commission is urg
ing county commissioners, instead Of
following section lines in the making
of roads, to build diagonal highways,
cutting through farm land if neces-
sary.
Statistics that have been collected
by the commission show that in fol-
lowing a section line of two miles in
length for instance, the distance to
haul wagon freight is two-fifths of a
mile further. In tonnage to be hauled
the diagonal road will save many miles
and mary dollars.
