O. p. N. ANDERSON
President Of Ramsey County Fair Association

The meeting here Friday, the 25th, of the Ramesy County Fair as
ISOLATION stockholders. and officials brings to- light the fact that altho
the organization has held but n fair, that of 1920, it proved to be one
of the greatest event in agricultural and live stock circles of the state
excluding only the state fair. Much of the credit for the undertaking
which now promises to develop to still further and greater achievements
is due to the untring efforts of o. p. N. Anderson, a unanimous choice
of the community for president last year and believed to be a candidate
for reelection on a popular demand by the public. Mr.. Anderson and
William Guy, secretary, were the workers who predomnated all others in
making last years event it's notable success with the aid Of other officials
cheerfuny given. Mr.. Anderson worked without remuneration and was
inspired solely by his interest in a better Ramsey county from an agri-
cultural and blooded stock standpoint, which include all others.
