county, VIII tend 10 QlSClOSc the fact that the mother of counties was not al all backward in the matter of going down to the State fair and winning a majority of the first and second premiums which had been hung up for the best agricultural, horticultural and dairy exhibits. A total of 42 first prizes were awarded to exhibitors from Yavapai county in the classes aforementioned, 34 second premiums two third premiums and three special awards were distributed among the local exhibitors. It must be borne in mind that the exhibits from this sec ton were in direct and keen competi. ton with the products from the world famous Salt River valley, spot which undoubtedly produces some of the finest agricultural products to be found in the world, but it is quite ap- parent that the Yavapai specimens were in most cases just a little bit better than those from the other parts of the State, and the big end of the premiums came direct to this county.
 Aside from the premiums on ex- hibits. the county succeeded in get. ting several other prizes, among which were first prize for the best decorated and most artistically ar ranged booth, second for the best county exhibit as whole, and first for the best mining exhibit. The first prize for the champion goat of the State went to Aubrey Gist. of Kirk land, while E. c.
