ing, A dinner will be served at noon. |
A big exhibit of fancy stock is expect
ed and a general all round country
fair program is being anticipated.
Much comment has been made upon
the fact that there will be an admis-
sion fee to the grounds. Some peo-
pie are under the impression that 1t
is a plan to obtain more money for
the private use of the officers or 9TH
ers. At most Of the smaller fairs in
the vicinity money Is furnished BY
dealers and interested men raise
amounts by public subscription, Here
it is not the case. For the last two
or three years the management has
felt the need Of more money to be
used for premiums as they fully
realize that in order to make the fair
successful premiums must at least be
iaVge enough TO repay those VINO
