The official lists of awards were made known today by State Fair Secretary T. D. Shaugh- messy.
 "An evidence of the agricultural possibilities of Yavapai county is per haps, best shown by the fact that nearly every farming exhibit from the northern county captured a prize at the State fair," said Secretary Shaugh- messy today. And the list of awards in which the names of Yavapai farm CTS appear on every page bears out the statement of the fair official.
 Secretary Shaughnessy expressed himself as exceptionally we'll pleased with the splendid showing made by the soil tillcrs of Yavapai in sending to the State fair the best agricultural exhibit ever gathered together in the State.
