The poultry department was the
best ever. Better In many respects
than in former years, and with more
varieties of birds shown, Judge C. A.
Smith said 1t was the finest exhibit
of poultry he had ever seen at g. Min
nesota county fair. This year there
was no children's contest, but there
were many more birds entered by far
mers thruout the county than prev
iously. There were about two hun
dred fifty birds in the show which
was presided over by Mrs. P. M. Long
who took great pride and interest in
seeing that the displays were proper
ly classified and cared for. J. r.
Streeter Of Montrose was on hand
with II birds, In the White Plymouth
Rock class. The birds were beauties
One hen entered by Mr.. Streeter was

winner Big Wonder, Duroc-Jersey hog
on deck, and he was the object of
much admiration by the visitors. The
showing thruout the live stock de.
partment was not up to that Of last
year, not owing to lack Of good ami.
mails in the county, but owing to the
backward season with all farmers
working over time to fill their silos.
C. A. Syvertson Of Alexander was on
hand again with his herd of Jersey
cattle, making the long trip, sixteen
miles each way, for the third consec.
utive time with his herd. Mr.. Syvert.
son is possessed of the true public
spirit which wins Tie Angus cattle
were missing from the fair this year.
G. o. Bergquist won the Minnesota
live stock breeders association cup
this year. It was held last year by
John Swenson. 1t will be contested
for again next year. It will finally be-
come the property of the winner who
earns it the second time. Live stock
parades were made on Thursday and
Saturday and were splendid features
They should be made daily events al
the fair.
The need for a separate barn fol
the race horses was very apparent tc
visitors at the horse department.

ATTENDANCE At
FAIR WAS GOOD
New London Makes MI With
It's Band On SATURDAY.,

The County Fair Of 1916 is in local
history Financially it was a success.
The strong wind and consequent mis-
hap to the airship caused a disap-
pointment to the crowds as this was
the main attraction from the thrilling
standpoint. But this was beyond the
control OF the fair management. The
races were good, and we have repeat.
eddy heard people comment on this
fact. The crowds seemed to have a
good time. Saturday was the best
day in the point Of weather and at.
tendance
The attendance at the county fair
was good, especially when one takes
into consideration the fact that both
Thursday and Friday were very cold
and very windy. The success of
these two days proved the immense
advantage Of protecting grove. Had
the fair been located on the open
prairie these days would have been
almost entire failures. The gate re-
ceipts were as follows, with COM
parison with last year:
1915 1915
Wednesday -. IS 361.60 5 $500
Thursday -. 80. l,O46.7O 371.2O
fTluay 9O1.Oo 1,1oO.9o
Saturday -. $500. 1885 911.6O
Totals -. $3,52390 $2,7S9.95
The gate receipts for the three
years since the fairgrounds were Sc.
cured have been as follows:
1914 .............. 80
1919 Z,l89.95
This year marked two substantial
improvements on the grounds. First
is the addition Of the three and half
acres of the Frost park. This prop
erty rounds out the fairgrounds park
and will give the space for future
growth as the number Of buildings in
crease. The second improvement was
the erection of the first section of the
cattle barn. It's construction gives
plenty of room and light The tota.
cost of the same is only $500, which is
considered very remarkable for barn
32x6O feet. Kerr and Chard furnish
ed the lumber and Ras. Rasmussen
did the work Of erection. 1t is now
proposed to rebuild the old horse barr
so as to admit more light. The asso
citation spent good deal Of money
this year In perfecting the race track
and it is now In good shape. The
horsemen are enthusiastic about It
and several wish to come in and use
the track for training purposes mex
year. 1t is bound to become fas
track, being perfectly level, with goot
lines, and protected from high winds
Saturday was New London Day a
the fair, and the exhibition Of com
munity spirit and civic pride shown
by the people from the picturesque
town on Crow River was an objec
lesson of great significance. Thu
New London Concert Band is an or
ganization that would do credit to ,
large city. In spite Of the fact tina
their leader, Prof. G. H. Olson AM
two best players were prevented b!
illness from attending, the band mad
good in furnishing the best Of music
At ten o'clock the New London tou
Of cars, thirty or more, headed by tn
band, in natty uniforms and twenty
five strong, marching In perfect OF
der, made their entry into the CIT
and paraded the principal streets, fo
lowing the same with concert on
Fourth street square. The ban
mace very favorable impression al
day at the grounds. New Londol
can boast Of their day being the hes
from the point OF gate receipts Of an

York October 7.

New York.-The Cunard liner
Alaunia, bound from New York to Fal.
mouth and London, was sunk by a
mine in the English Channel.
All of the 249 passengers on the
liner were landed at Falmouth before
the vessel struck the mine, according
to officials of the Cunard line here.
Some of the members of the crew of
215 men were lost.
The Alaunia sailed from this port
Oct. Z.
Passenger Superintendent P. w.
Whatmough. of the steamship line
said advices had been received that
all the Alaunia's passengers had been
landed at Falmouth.
When the Alaunia left this port she
is said to have carried $4,000 tons of
cargo, large part of which consisted
in war supplies. Officials, however,
denied the ship carried anything of a
military character.
The Alaunia was a vessel of S,621
tons. She was commanded by Capt.
H. M. Denison
