ARRANGED
Richfield Day Saturday
September 30

mers for various agricultural, stock
and poultry exhibits, Richfield Day
should be better this year ever before.
The agricultural exhibit may not be
quite so large, but will contain a very
fine duality Of grains, grasses and vege-
tables which will demonstrate beyond a
doubt what can be done, even under un-
favorable conditions that has existed
during the summer season. Those who
have not yet prepared their exhibits
should do so at once SO as to get them
in at the proper time.
With large list of stock and poultry
entered you will see one of the best ex-
hibitious in this line that will be shown
any where's within the state and es-
pecial attention and vigorous efforts
are being made by the director and as
sistants in securing large number OF
the very best there are on the Rich
field tract, and anyone who has not
entered a good animal or some good
poultry should do so at once.
The middle room of the Recorder
building will be used for the agricul-
tural exhibits and the company corral
will be made suitable and used for the
stock and poultry show.
The Womens department with Mrs.
Pridmore, directing will have the old
drug store room for their displays of
various kinds. 1t will be properly
fitted to accommodate all exhibits Of
fered and in case of storm during
the time that they are in the room the
roof will be protected by large tent,
so that no one need to feel afraid of
any of their offerings being damaged.
There are three judges promised by
Mr.. Center, Director of the Agricul-
ture Extension of the Idaho College.
One for the livestock, one for the ag
riculture and one for the Women's
department exhibits. We are indeed
fortunate to have this experienced as
sistance which will add considerable
prominence to the occasion and also
help to advertise this section of the
country and each contestant should
bear this in mind when preparing their
exhibity.
On Friday night, September 29th, at
the town hall 1000 feet of moving
picture films, prepared by the Chicago
Herald, will be shown free of charge.
These pictures have been secured by
them in the southeastern part of this
state containing some views of Rich
field and surrounding country and
should be of much interest to our local
citizens. If possible arrangements
will also be made to run this film on the
afternoon of Richfield Day, at the same
place. These films will later be shown
throughout the east in advertising
Idaho and will have very distinctive
bearing on this part of the state and
everyone should make an extra effort
to get in to see them.
During the afternoon there will be
all kinds of sports and amusements
such as races, jumping, high kicking
and diving, balloon ascension, battle
royal and a ball game between the
hetters and the best. Any one of these
amusements would justify settler
coming from the extreme edge of the
tract to see it. The hour has not yet
been set for the balloon ascention, but
it will be we'll to come early so as to be
sure and not miss it. The ball game
will have some of the old professionals
of the Federal and National leagues,
that will demonstrate in arts of ball
playing. In the evening at o'clock a
stock company will reproduce the fam
GUS play 'Ole Olson, From Mexico. in
three acts, two scenes and an intro
duction. Immediately after the show
