garden products and grains.
Hollene's booth was well arranged
and had a good display Of grain ex-
hibits. Ranchvale had good draw
ing card in the old handmade quilt,
made in 1864, and also in the grain
and canned fruit displays. Shiloh

at the fair. Her garden products
and canning displays were especially
good. Pleasant Hills exhibit con-
sisted Of some very good garden
seeds exhibits, and among other
things some splendid specimens OF
canning. Fairfield had good exhibits
Of grain and garden produce, and the
model house in her booth attracted
much attention.
While the Grady booth had good
general display, the needle work did
a great deal to win her the first prize.

plays Of needle work, too, that helped
them win the prizes. Texico also
had a good display Of cookery and
canned goods, and her Sign, made of
grain, was very good. Claud had a
good exhibit of canning, cookery and

PLANNING TO BUY
ATHLETIC GROUNDS
Athletic Association Of Clovis High
School Hopes to Purchase and
Enclose Grounds for Meets

Plans are under way FOR the High
School Athletic Association to buy
two blocks Of land in the east pnrt
Of town, about three blocks east Of
the Baptist hospital where an ath-
letic grounds will be constructed.
The plan is to erect q high board
fence around the property and even
tually erect a grand stand.
City Superintendent E. W. Bowyer
says while the property will likely
remain in charge Of the school board,
the plan is to gain the cooperation
Of the citizens in purchasing and
fencing the property. In short
time he figures that the revenues
derived from renting the park would
pay back the purchase price and the
expense incurred in fencing the prop
erty.
The Curry County Fair Associa-
ton will be asked to cooperate on
the deal which will afford the Asso-
citation a place to hold the fair next
year within an enclosed ground.

Farm Products Cause Much
Favorable Comment.

One Of the finest farm products
exhibits ever seen in this part of the
country was shown at the Curry
County Harvest Festival and Live
Stock Show by Portales. The little
bungalow, pebbledashed and covered
completely with grain, and the mon
stcr onions, sweet potatoes ard other
products, made the valley booth one
Of the big drawing cards of the fair.
Although Portales was not allowed
to compete for the prizes, under the
rules Of the Fair Association, she
brought her exhibit anyhow, and

CLOVIS WILL HAVE
u FOUR VOTING BOXES
Commissioners Designate Two New
Voting Boxes in Order to Facil-
itate Work on November 2.

At a meeting Of the County Com
missioners Tuesday an order was
passed making two additional voting
places for Clovis. On account Of the
fact that the vote has increased in
the last few years it has been found
very difficult to handle all the votes
at two boxes. 1t not only works
hardship on the election officers
but also makes it almost impossible
for the votes to be cast in the after
noon during the heavy voting hours.
The new voting boxes will in the
future be known as District A and
District B Of Precinct No. l, and
District A and District B Of Pre-
cinct No. 8. District A, Precinct
No. 1, will be composed of all voters
residing east Of Main Street and
north Of Grand Ave. and they will
vote on November 2 at the Elks Au-
ditorium. District B of this same
precinct will include all the voters
residing west of Main Street and
north Of Grand Ave. and they will
vote at the court house. District A
of Precinct No. 8 will be composed
of tho voters east Of Main Street and
south Of Grand Ave. and they will
vote at the Chamber Of Commerce
building. District B Of Precinct
will be composed of the voters living
west Of Main Street and south Of
Grand Ave. and they will cast their
votes at what is known as the McFar.
lin building at the corner Of West
Grand Ave. and Mitchell street. A
line running north and south and easi
and west from Main Street ant
Grand Ave. will also serve as divid
ing place to govern voting places Of
those who live in Precincts Nos.

Big Feature Of Fair.

While every part of the Curry
County Harvest Festival and Live

ed by in an almost endless line Of
the signs of prosperity. The parade
is estimated to have been almost two
miles long.

County Agent Yates Of Quay County
and County Agent Reynolds Of
Roosevelt County, were judges ant
the following prizes to communities
were awarded: Fairfield, 1st, $25
Hollene, End, SIS; Texico Srd, $40
The outstanding feature Of tn,
whole fair was the friendly rivalr,
that exists between the differen
communities in the county, and thi
was evident in the parade. Ever.

showing that was made and for tn,
success Of the parade.
