Kane Makes Statement
Manager Ed NJ Kane, of the Fair
Committee. and other members were
highly pleased with the showing and
the suspicious opening. Mr.. Kane
said:
"The farm and garden products
now on display at the Southeastern
Alaska Country Fair are a very fine
tribute to the industry of the ranch
ers and gardeners of this district
and very encouraging indication OF
the wide variety of vegetables, grains
and other ranch products that can
be successfully grown in this Sec
tion. There are number of prod
ucts among the exhibits which have
not been given any great amount of
publicity and those articles are OF
a very good quality. The number OF
ranchers who have on exhibition
sufficient variety of products to be
among the contenders for the gold
medal which will be given to the
rancher who has the greatest va
riety of articles on display, has far
surpassed the earlier forecasts
which have been received by the Jul
neau Fair Committee.
"The awards in all classifications
of products and articles will be made
tomorrow forenoon. Ono set of
Judges will pass on the merits OF
all farm. garden and orchard prod
ucts. The needle work. curios and
minerals and other articles will be
examined by separate judges. The
mon who will act as judges for the
farm products are Judge w. b.
Stout of Haines. +. NJ. Policy OF
Sitka and A. Z. Maltby OF ketchi-
kan. Those men are all old-time Al
askans, are sufficiently familiVr with
farm products to be qualified to
pass on the merits of the different
articles and are men of high in
tegrity. The other judges who will
pass on needle work and curios and
minerals will be selected late this
evening.

try Fair tonight are very high class
