products as well as. dairy cattle. In
the opinion of the fair management
too little attention has been given in
the past to the superior value of the
dairy products as human food. So
many of the commercial concerns
have in recent years advertised so ell
aborately concerning the food value
of various substances that it becomes
necessary for the farmer of an agri-
cultural community to stand behind
their product in stronger way than
ever. Hence at the Stearns County
Fair this year not only will the dairy
cattle be featured, but there will also
be. very large and elaborate exhibit
OF butter made by all the cooperative
creamery managers in central Min
nesota and especially Stearns county.
1t is intended to emphasize the
food value of butter and dairy pro-
ducts and the important part that
these products play in building up the
local community and maintaining it's
wealth and industry.
Butter has no substitute and all the
various fats, in their numerous COM
pounds that have been thrown on the
market and advertised as substi-
tute for butter, meaniny that they are
Gus as good) or (the same thing)
are not such but a product in class
by themselves and are nothing like
butter as far as food value is con-
cerned. This is the thing that must
be put before the consuming public,
and it stands in hand for the local
fair to do everything possible to help
the farmers in their campaign to put
their product before the public and
get the best returns.
Practically every department of
the fair this year has a few novel
features which will make it different
than before and hence more interest
ing to the patrons of the fair. 1t APP
pears that more interest is taken this
year in placing the proper kind Of
exhibits and consequently it is ex-
pected that more interest will be
taken by the patrons of the fair in
going through the exhibit halls.
Probably the biggest day will be
on Friday, September 2, when Presi-
dent j. r. Howard of the American
Federation of Farm Bureaus gives
his address and holds his conference.
Mr.. Howard represents the latest eff
fort on the part of the farmers not
only state wide, but also nation wide
recommendation Mr.. Howard has
done much in the last few months to
present the standpoint of the farmers
to the American people, and especial
~ to Congress. With Congress es-
pecially he has been rather successful
1t will be to the interest of every far
mer to hear Mr.. Howard on that day.
Reports have come in that delega-
tons of neighhoring counties will be
here to hear Mr.. Howard.
