]
be a breeder or grower of any prom
inenee you will have to throw off that
fear. when you place your exhibit
before the judges who are all special
lists in their different lines and who
are and have been making a life
study of it and drawing good salaries
for their knowledge and experience.
You need have no fear but
that you will receive what you
deserve and will know just where
you stand. You can't all win first
premium on everything, but by close
observation and asking a few ques-
tions you will learn where you are
lacking and be in a position to over
come deficiencies for next year and
all future selections of stock. This
does not apply alone to live stock
your poultry, but By comparison of
your produce with that of your neigh
bors you are able to see where you
are short and thereby be able to i'm
prove your standing.
Don't be afraid to let the children
compete. it is part Of their educa-
tion II YOU think you ere too old to
learn remember the one who said he
was 85 and still learning. Every
man has the best cook wife and
mother in the State. so don't be
afraid TO let the wife show her hand
iwork. semc women cant put up n
jar of fruit or vegetables fit - eat
or seq a seam 1t to look at. Fortd-
nately re don't happen TO know any
of them 50 all the women we do
know arc expected to be at the fair
with a good showing of their ability
IN domestic science. Mrs. Bendle
who has had charge OF this depart
ment for the past several years viii
have charge again this year and no
one need have any fear in trusting
their exhibits to Mrs. Bendle's care.
The executive committee have re-
ceiyed one hundred and forty feet
OF show cases from Reno to be used
for the protection of needle and
fancy work, we know few women
who have won "oodles' of money in
the past few years on their handi-
work in canning. sewing, etc. OF
course their husbands insist on the
claim that they are the best women
In the State, we don't want TO try TO
dispute their word. but VIC think
there are others equally as good, we
would be afraid to say better and we
would like very much TO have them
show their ability by winning large
share of the premium money at tho
State Fair this year.
We haven't any time to waste arg
ulng about ii, there arc q few prem
lum lists left, Il you haven't received
one now Is the time to get it and go
to 1t"
Mr.. Il. r. Eichner who assisted in
the care of the live stock ct the Ne
vada State Fair last year and who is
now at the California State Fair has
been appointed superintendent of
the poultry department of the Ne
vada State Fair, the executive com
mittee in selecting Mr. Eiehner feel
that they have done the fair real
service. Those who intend showing
poultry at the Fair can rest assured
that nothing will be left undone for
their care and comfort.
Mr.. +. e. Mobley owner and gen
eral manager of the Turlock Jersey
Farm has been appointed superin-
tendent of cattle and hog exhibits
and Mr.. w. e. Bowler, superintend-
ent of the horse and sheep exhibits.
Neither of these men need any intro
duction. Mr.. Mobley is one of the
pioneers in the pure bred Jersey
stock industry of Churchill county
and before the State Fair came to
Fallon took pleasure in preparing his
stock for exhibit and showing his
stock at Reno and winning a good
proportion of the premiums.
We have adopted the Nevada
Packing Companies motto give the
Nevada pig a chance" and we also
welcome the governments slogan to
increase the food supply by the pig
route" while MIR. Mobley's big hob
by is the Jersey COW he also takes a
great fancy in good hogs and will see
that nothing is lacking for their cam
