play Of pastry. Every one of these
four exhibits was neatly and artis-
tically arranged. Princeton was given
first place and Greenbush second, but
it seems as though the judges must al
most have been compelled to flip a !
coin in making their decision, the ex-
hibits were so good and so nearly on a
par.
It might be more fair to Judge
these township exhibits in grades or
classes. All those scoring enough
points to be placed in class A would
receive the blue ribbon, class B the
red ribbon, etc.
Livestock Exhibits.
The livestock display at the fair this
year far excelled exhibits of previous
years in quality. Each succeeding
year finds a larger amount Of regis
tered stock in the county. The farm
ers are learning that it is more profit
able to keep the better grades and the
full bloods and they are gradually
saving the money for purchasing
these high priced animals. The stock
was of high quality and there were
a large number of entries. Every
stall in every barn was filled. The
only cattle on the grounds that were
not registered were the entries from
the boys and birls' clubs. One much
experienced and very successful far
mer, who has resided in this vicinity
for more than SO years, stated that
he believed higher class display of
livestock would not be found at any
county fair in Minnesota.
The entries in the livestock depart
ment were as follows: Cattle, II;
horses, AZ; sheep, 80; swine, II; fowls,
300. This list does not include the en-
tries by the boys and girls club men,
bers.
