the best, said president Greevcr, of
any first day. for u long time. The
crowd was not as large, owing to the
fact that the school fair, which has
brought a good crowd of children
and teachers each year, from all over
the county, who were admitted free.
was abandoned this year. The paid
admissions were up to the standard,

The superintendents of the depart
ments were busv all day placing and
entering exhibits, all of which are up
to the usual high standard, except
the corn exhibit, which, while credi-
table, is short owing to the early date
at which the fair is held.
There were number of entries of
Boon County and Casey pure bred
corn, and several entries of common
corn. all of it good.
