RECORD ATTENDANCE AT COUNTY FAIR

balanced on the feet of her partner, earned well deserved applause. Robin, a handy foot juggier. had a line of new tricks and turns which pleased the large crowds.
 The Aerial Stars, two men and one woman, put on an act that was en- tireiy new and clever. The men per formed on a swinging trapeze and at the finish of their act the stunts were done on a revolving trapeze which swung them round and round at fast rate.
 The whirling Edwins, a revolving ladder act, was good and was well ap- piauded.
 Perhaps the most novel attraction of the afternoon was the whippet race put on by We.ch's running dogs. This race was between four lean, clean -cut dogs. The dogs were taken down the track 220' yards and then started up the home stretch, covering the distance in less than 10 seconds. In the race between Wild Bill Burdick on a mo- ! torcycle and one of the dogs, Wild Bill took a mean advantage of the dog by getting start of nearly mile and was going at top speed when the dog started. The little fellow was game and was only a few feet behind the machine at the finish
 | The final attraction. of the afternoon was the peg race, which furnished much amusement for the spectators. l This race was under the direction of Daniel Connolly. The object of the race was to hang the harness on a peg, then hitchNand drive around the track. This race was won by c. W.
 Woodmansee, who did the trick in short order. finishing fully a quarter of mile. ahead of the next man. Ar thur Williams was second and C. W. Hill was third. Others that started were Darl DeWolf, David Benlett Ar thur Hill and William Smith DeWolf was the second man around but as l his harness was not properly fixed he
 was disqualified.
 l Edward Connolly. tenor soIoist, sang during the afternoon, accompanied by | Tubbs' band under the direction of
 John M Swahn. MT. Connellys clear
 tenor voice was heard in When You l Come Back and You Will Come Back, One for All and All for One, and

 nelly also did the announcing and di-
 rected the vaudeville attractions.
 The balloon ascension and parachute drop, which always thrills the fair crowds, was one of the best ever
 staged here. The balloon filled quickly
 and the intrepid aeronaut sailed grace
 fully up into a cloudless sky and floated only short distance toward the north. He made his first drop al
 about 1000 feet and his second about 500 feet lower. He came down only a short distance outside the grounds. The midway was about the same as the general run of midways, with their
 doll games, ring toss and candy wheels There was the usual merry o-roun6 and the real live ponies for the chil- dren to ride. The hot dog and soda booths did a big business during the afternoon and early evening.

FARM BUREAU TENTS ARE BUSY PLACES

Backyard pigs for patriotism, pleasure and profit" is the way the boys of the county pig club put it where they display their sleek looking porkers in the second farm bureaus tent, where each pen also contains the slogan: Stop. See my pig. I am helping win the war;
 Assistant County Agent E. G. Whit ham conducts free tests of milk and cream on the opposite side of the tent and has graphic illustration to show how high class cattle pay. He shows pure bred heifer and bull calves of four different breeds alongside a scrub bull with two of his get. The contrast is obvious in favor of the pure bred. Three cows, which produced respec- lively 1000, 5000 and 10000 pounds of milk per year, are an argument along the line of selecting the herd. By charts it is shown that the 4.000 pound COW lost her owner $16 a year. while the 10000 pound COW was a s1S3 profit, although costing only S15 more for grain feed. A magnificent black Percheron stallion from the Mitchell farm at Salem is another feature of the exhibit.
 Boys and Girls Tent.
 The Boys and Girls Agricultural ' clubs conducted under the auspices of Miss Bertha Hallock of the farm bu- reau have 3 tent to themselves, where they display great variety of all kinds of fine vegetables canned goods and cakes. cookies and other cooked (continued on Page Seven, Col. Three)
