ANNOUNCEMENT
We feel justified in calling the publc's attention
to the fact that the Bottineau County Fair is no
longer an experiment and that it will be Just as biz
as we make it. In other words, for every ounce Of
a pound of returns.
The Bottineau County Fair can no longer be looked
upon as a small local institution, as it has taken it's
rightful position as one of the dominant fairs of
the state, and the management feels that with the
big outlay of money to properly stage a fair of such
large proportions that it is really two risky to stage
ANYTHING less than a "three day fair" from now on.
with the probability that a four day fair will soon
be as common as the small two day fair of the past.
Our personal success depends in a large degree
upon the success Of our local institutions and enter
Prlses; therefore, in helping the Bottineau County
ralf we are not only helping ourselves but every
other citizen of the community. 1t is not a question
of how big a premium we can get, but, on the other
hand, a question of service we can render.
Our capacity last year to handle the fair visitors
was taxed to it's limit. We hope this year to have so
many visitors that it will be necessary to close the
gates each day and refuse to admit more. When this
has been done our task has been completed. 1t can
be done, because we have within a radius of one
hundred miles of Bottineau about two hundred thous-
and people, everyone of whom are interested in ag-
r%iculture in some form or other. No community has
ever had a better opportunity than ours. Are we big
enough to measure up to these opportunities? The
fair is one of the best c~riterions on this subject be-
cause it is purely a work of construction. r.
10 accomplish these results, the directors of the
Fair need your help, not only in exhibits, but in
helping plan a successful conclusion and this is your
invitation to TAKE OFF YOUR COAT mi PAR
TICIPATE.
F. A. BRAINARD, President,
S. H. WILSON, Secretary.
