FIRST ENTRY Of
FAIR IS SHEEP;
OTHERS COMING
Indications Are That Live
Stock And Racing Will Be
Of Top Notch Kind

The first entry for the Knox county
fair was made early Wednesday morn
ing, the opening day for entries con-
sisting of carload of sheep of the
Shropshire, Southdown, Oxford and
Cheviot varieties. Secretary H. c.
Gates announced Wednesday that the
prospects are that there will be many
sheep entered at the fair by local
sheep raisers and those from other
counties as well. He has also received
intimation that an entry of cattle, hogs
and sheep will be made by non-resi-
dent of the coUnty within few days.
THE prospects are that there will
be many livestock entries" said Sec
retary Gates Wednesday, "of course
we don't expect many horses entered
for the races until short time before
the opening day, but from present indi-
cations | believe we can safely say
that there'll be a big field of steppers
in each race. The poultry exhibit this
year promises to be the biggest Knox
county has known or years, if at all"
The secretarys Office is busy
place this week as over 1000 pieces of
mail are being sent out advertising the
opening of the fair.
