MILFORD GRANGE FAIR
ON OCTOBER 27 and Is
All Exhibits VIII Be From the Farms of
Delaware Grangers Residing in the
Vicinity of Milford.

The annual fair, which has become
custom with Milford Grange, Pat
rOns OF Husbandry will this year be-
come an affair of more than ordinary
interest, as men and women who have
the energy to push the enterprise be-
yond the narrow views of the past
two years, when the results were not
up to the fairs held in former years,
have now charge of the enterprise.
1t is probable that the entire grounds
surrounding the Grange Hall will be
covered over with roofing or canvas,
and thus afford greater opportunity
for showing poultry or even stock.
Electric lights can easily be~installed
to make the ground available and
with the first and second stories of the
hall available for displaying fruit and
products of the farms, the vegetables
and fruit displays could, if necessary,
be placed under the outside cover.
These annual exhibits are advertise
ments for the farmers of Delaware,
and especially are they an advertise
ment of the splendid country about
Milford, as well as of the town, and
it is hoped, for that reason, that a
broader view will be taken Of the fair
to be held by the Changers Of Milford
and vicinity, as it will be one that will
attract the attention of the balance Of
the state and peninsula. Unfortunate
", the experience of the recent fairs,
which we're not on the broader policy
of the first, have discounted the inter-
est to a certain extent; but with the
aid of publicity, and determined ef-
fort to put the country about Milford,
and the Changers of Milford Grange,
on the map, through a real successful
fair, will bring only a great success.
The following committees have
been named to take charge of the var
ious departments in the annual fair
of Milford Grange, which will be held
