this writing the work Is nearing COM
pletition, and everything will be in

especially call the attention OF the
reople to the fact that the grand
stand has been rebuilt and Is abso-
lutely safe.

The fair premium list contains a
list of the committees throughout the
county who will be responsible for
community exhibits from the several
communities.
| Owing to the fact that in most
cases the trustees of the schools were
especially busy men it was found
necessary to increase the committee
in each case. Wherever the trustees
find it impossible to serve the fai1
board reserves the right to appoint
stead.
| Owing to sickness some communi-
ties have been unable to come in on
the community exhibits, but have
promised to help generously with the
general exhibit. We wish to urge the
necessity of every one doing all in
their power for the general exhibit
"Cii do tAClI
to win the community prize.
1t has also been found necessary
to group some of the smaller pre-
cincts with their larger neighbors in
order to help them in getting up their
exhibit. But where such groups are
formed each precinct must furnish its
part of the exhibit and will share in
the prize.
Name and address of each exhib-
itor must appear on each exhibit.
No article outside of decorations
may be bought.
Each booth will be in charge of a
practical farmer, chosen from the
general committee of the communi.
ties exhibiting, in order to give cut
correct information in regard to pro.
ducts and localities.
There will be no objection to put.
ting anything that you may wish in
your booth but reward will be made
on agricultural products only. Tc
make this little palmer would say
that fancy work may be included, also
an animal or fowl, but these would
} not add to your chance Of winning.
