SINCE the great war has taken 50
many of the young men Of the nation
into the army, there is a shortage in
many of the sports that have flourish
ed in the past. However, there is one
sport, which has been called the great
ut in the world that still can 60 on.
Horse racing is allowed to go on and
is given the encouragement of the
government for the reason that it de-
velops race of horses which are
essential for war purposes. The ma
jority of the men connected with this
business are beyond the age of SOL
diers, though many of them have gone
to war during the past year. The
Barnes County Fair has hardly ever
failed to offer its patrons good rae
ing program, and this year will be no
exception. There are eight races on
the program for a total Of $27OO and
the entry lists show that there will be
some great contests for the money.
Whatever days you select to be at the
fair you can be assured of some great
sport on the fast Valley City track.
