the Mile Lacs county fair will open
in Princeton and close on Wednesday
evening, August 25. All exhibits
with the exception Of live stock must
be entered on the opening day-in fact
this day has been set apart for that
particular purpose. Live stock may
be entered up to II a. m. on Monday,
August %. 1t is important that these
regulations be complied with.
Present prospects indicate that this
years fair will have on exhibition the
largest and best display of live stock,
grains, vegetables, etc., in the history
of the Mile Lacs County Agricul-
tural society.
There are hundreds of fine cattle,
horses, hogs and sheep in the sur
rounding country, and grain and
vegetables, despite the dry weather,
are of good quality.
Every farmer should put forth his
best efforts to place on exhibition
specimens of all his agricultural
products and display as much live
stock as possible. There is ample
room in the capacious buildings and
pens at the fair grounds for housing
large numbers of cattle, horses, hogs,
sheep, poultry, etc.
Farmers should take pride in their
home fair, as it is of much greater
Importance to them than the state fair.
They should do their utmost to dem
onstrate to the people of other coun-
ties that this part of the state is
capable Of growing the finest agricul-
tural products in Minnesota and rails
ing the best cattle and horses.
The amusement program should in
itself prove big drawing card. No
pains have been spared by the man
agement to secure a line of attrac-
tons which will please the multitude.
An innovation at this. years fair
will be amusement programs on
Tuesday and Wednesday nights,
which will include the "Battle of
Verdun" and the "World in Rotation, y
produced in pyrotechnics. No one can
afford to miss these wonderful at
fractions.
