THE STATE AND THE NATION

Colorado and the United States
government are sponsors for the 1917
State Fair at Pueblo, Sept. II to %
BY legislation enactment the state
took over the fair this year and set
aside $4,000 for the payment of pre-
mums to the farmers for the prize
winning exhibits in the horticultural
and AGRICULTURAL departments. The
Pueblo Commercial club guarantees
the payments of all premiums in full
and the liberality of the Fair directors
in offering large premiums on fruit,
farm products and stock, together with
the state and Commerce Club guaran-
tee of payment, insures the largest
number of exhibits in all departments
ever assembled at the State Fair. Re-
cord breaking crops this year are a
warranty of the quality of the ex-
hibits.
The national government will make
a war display at the Colorado State
Fair. 1t has asked from to 10 acres
of space and the necessary acreage
will be set aside by the fair directors
for the most wonderful war display
ever assembled in the world

1t will be reproduction of the pre-
sent war in miniature, but on so grand
scale that those who witness it will
feel that they have actually been at
the battle front, seen the men work
ing like ants in the trenches, watched
the airshps sail through the clouds
to drop bombs and spy out the enemy
position and seen the seige guns
and anti-aircraft guns in action.
There will be German trench, no.
mans land between the German
trench and an ally trench, with the
barbwire entanglements, and then the
American trench Behind the Ameri-
can trench there will be the hospital
corps. the food conservation workers
at home, the liberty bond buyers and
all the great army at home which sees
that the soldiers in the trenches are
the best equipped and provisioned and
supported in the world. Hundreds
of men, all kinds of modern cannon
and guns, British booth and
French booth, will help to make the
display the most pretentious patri-
otic entertainment ever assembled
In addition there will be so reels of
motion pictures actually taken of bat
tie scenes in Europe, pictures that can
never be seen except with the govern
ment display at the State Fair.
