Our Township Fair was held here
last Saturday as was advertised
While it was not what il could have
been made it was a great success.
There was some little misunderstand-
ing with some Of the judges about
there being second premium on all
exhibits, and as they failed to mark
the second premiums we cannot award
same This was simply an oversight
and was not done Intentionally There
were over 125 different kinds OF fruits,
vegetables, farm products and wild
products gathered. While everyone
could not get premium we believe
the judges in all departments did as
fairly as they knew how. We thank
all for doing as well as they did. At
ter the fair was over came the task of
preparing this for the county fair
Three wagons were loaded that night
with the premium stuff for the county
fair, B. Brewster, C. T. Kirby, George
Pyeatt and Booth Campbell going
with same. All except George re-
NAMED and prepared same for the
county exhibit. After seeing the ex-
hibits from the different townships,
our eyes could not keep from wander
ing back to Cane Hill, and when the
news came today "wednesday that
Cane Hill township had been awarded
first premium for the best township
exhibit we do not wonder so much at
being drawn that way We certainly
thank all who contributed in any way
toward this exhibit So far as
know this is the first time any town
ship outside of Prairie has taken
first premium on township exhibit.
