Exhibits Prove Advancement of Age in
America

tAmcFiCa-
This is the age of machinery.
Labor that years ago was performed
by hand or with horses is now done
much more easily and quickly by me-
chanical means. The machinery de-

from a modest exhibit a few years ago
to a great array of the latest and most
approved devices. While there is no
competition in these exhibits. farmers
