STATE FAIR AS WAR EXPOSITION.

The Minnesota State Fair, Sept. to
7, will be the largest "War Exposition"
held in America this year
The Government has chosen the Min
nesota State Fair as an exhibit grounds
for its largest and most comprehensive
war feature-the great Allied War Ex-
position. No other fair in the country
has succeeded in getting this exhibit,
which is splendid testimonial to the
high repute of the "Northwest's Greatest
Fair and Exposition"
The Allied War Exhibit, which is COM
ing, is combined display of all the war
exhibits which have been exhibited any,
where in the United States and Canada
up to this time. 1t is in charge of the
Committee on Public Information, Wash
ington, d. c., and is the most elaborate
war exhibit bearing on the present war
which has ever been assembled.
Thousands and thousands of war relics,
guns, and war material of all kinds, cap
tured on the Western front by the
Canadians, Italians, and other nations in
the Allied armies, constitute the exhibit.
This gigantic show was gathered to-
gether early this summer, and was shown
for the first time at San Francisco in
July. It was attended by hundreds of
thousands of persons from all over the
country at that time.
Another pretentious exhibit by the De-
partments of War, Navy Commerce,
Agriculture, and the Food Administration
is to be installed in the Horticultural
Building. This is the first time these
departments have ever sent out such an
exhibit to the Minnesota State Fair and
it will be a pretentious one, occupying
about 5000 square feet. There will be
many displays bearing on the war.
