TO GATHER
EXHIBITS
FOR FAIR
County Agents Urge That Farm
ers in District Collect Ex-
hibits of All Crops AS Va
rious Products Mature.

The county agents are planning
now to begin the collection of exhib-
its of the various crops, as they are
ready for harvesting, for display at
the county and state fairs, and in the
office of the president of the state
board of agriculture.
Farmers are especially urged to
save specimens of the small grains
and grasses which are maturing now
and cannot be obtained later in the
season. The county agents may not
be able to reach all parts. of the
county before the grains are harvest
ed and they recommend that the far
mers be careful to preserve exhibits
so that the district will make a good
showins at all shows.
A permanent exhibit which is be-
ing planned for the office of the pres
ident of the state board of agricul-
ture will do much to put before the
large number of persons who visit
is from all sections of the superior
advantages of this county. lit is
planned to have samples of all pro-
ducts of the state shown there, SO
that an observer can tell at a glance
the crop quality and condition of the
counties of the state. This will ne
cessitate that Grady county make a
good showing, according to J. w.
Owens county agent, so that more
farmers will be attracted here.
Three exhibits will probably have
to be collected this year, he thinks,
one for the county fair, one for the
state fair and one for the presidents
office. The state fair follows the
county fair so closely that there may
not be time to move the exhibits
from here to Oklahoma City.
