The Fair Officials Are Working to
Get the Most Competent Live.
stock Judge Obta ina able

The fair at Arion this year bids
we'll to have the best livestock exhibit
tion ever held in Crawford county. The
breeders of the county are pushing a
movement to stimulate their industry.
They believe good livestock show
is one oT the best methods to use in
getting farmers to realize the import
ance of pure bred sires
A committee from the breeders as.
sociation, composed OF z. T. Dunham,
Chas. Speck and Edward Riddle, met
with the fair board last Saturday to
formulate plans for handling the live
stock to be exhibited this fall. The
fair association has been handicapped
in the past by having a shortage OF
livestock buildings. As result OF
the meeting Saturday livestock entries
will close September 9th. This will
allow the fair officials time to build
extra pens and stalls and hire tents
for the livestock.
The fair officials are working to get
the most competent livestock judge
obtainable for this year. Two judges
will probably be used. Another i'm
portant change agreed upon was that
there will be three placings on all
classes of livestock. The premium
book provides for two cash prizes, a
first and second only. The third plac-
ing will be made, although only a rib
bon given. This Is very important,
however, for a third place in a class
Of many entries means more to a
breeder than first in class of few
entries. '.~s,t'
Steel exhibiting coops will be oh
tanned for the poultry department,
thus insuring the exhibits against ro.
dents. This will bring out large
number of exhibitors who have In the
past held back because OF the danger
of showing in tents and wooden coops.
Z Crawford county has material for
one OF the best county fairs in the
state.4~.The breeders. see the need and
value or such q county exposition and
are behind it in full force The bust
ness,m of Denison are also boosters
for the fair association. At the regu.
lar meeting of the Commercial club
last Friday night it was decided to
close all Denison business places on
the third afternoon of the fair.
