ELEVENTH ANNUAL
FAIR IS CLOSED

The eleventh annual Beltrami
county fair was closed last evening,
not a big success, due to the weather
during the three days OF the fair.
Cold, rainy weather kept large crowds
from attending the fair and although
gate receipts have not been checked
out financially the fair will not be
in the best of shape. AS far as vege-
table and other exhibits are concern
. d the fair was a success as these
exhibits were above the average. The
Mock exhibits were not as large as
they would have been had the wealth
er been better.
