TO BIG FAIR
Special Trains to be Run
Over Great Northern
and Northern Pacific.

Preparations for special excursions
to the North Dakota state fair, which
opens Tuesday, are being made this
week. Application has been made
for three special trains. and there is
no doubt that they will be run, it vas
announced this morning. The sched-
ules will be prepared the latter part
u over the Great Northern Tuesday
and Wednesday and over the Northern
Pacific on Thursday.
From an exhibit standpoint. the
fair this year will be the greatest in
the history of the state. The swine
exhibit will be the finest North Da-
kota has seen, judging from the en-
tries already received. In the cattle
department, entries to fill two out of
ceived. According to Secretary D. V.
Moore this never occurred before.
The sheep, horse and poultry shows
also will be much bigger than ever.
Secretary Moore has spared Moth
ing to provide excellent entertainment.
The grandstand acts are the finest
o~btainable, and the c. A. Workman
Carnival company will offer up-to-
the-minute and excellent attractions
and better shows than ever.
Flight a Feature.
Much interest is being taken in the
exhibition flights of the International
Flyers-Myron Bacon and AL Forseth.
They have made number of flights
at fairs and celebrations in the north-
ern part of: the state and have given
entire satisfaction. They will make
two exhibition, flights daily at the state
fair, and there is no doubt hat they
will provide thrills enough to satisfy
the most exacting searcher.
Aside from this. there will be the
daily auto polo contest, which has
proved so popular with fair crowds.
New teams will be seen here this year,
and, judging from accounts received
from places where they have played
they will offer more in the way OF
thrills than teams which previously
have played here.
