Although local interest in the Ma

Although local interest in the Ma
tional Dairy Show, which is to be
staged in the Twin Cities October
Z to IA, has increased slightly from
the original plans of sending del
egation of several hundred farmers
by auto, on account of the financial
condition of the farmers at the pres
ent time, there is every ndication

scented by fair sized gathering. A
number of cars are being promised

as do not own cars and every farm
er in the county is being urged to
attend.
The Beltrami County Farm Bureau
association is carrying on. the local
work under the direction of Coun-
ty agent D C. Dvoracek and every
effort will be made to encourage

Of the state. ~,2,
The county agent is now planning
q series of booster meetings through
out the county to be held. next week
at various points at which speakers
will outline the Importance of the
National Dairy Show and the reason
why farmers from this . section
should attend if possible.
"Healthland' to be staged in con-
nection with the dairy show, is a
whole show in itself, Of as much value
to humanity as the National Dairy
Exposition is to, agricultural prog
ress. Its significance carries an addl-
ed reason why every county IN the
state should enlarge it's delegations
adding the women and wherever pos
sible. the kiddies, as it, affects them
most since "Healthland" is about
healthier, happier children and
mothers, all brought about by the
better. knowledge of health laws and
nutrition. -.
There will be hourly conferences
held by the distinguished women VINO
will direct this show, so that the
women of the northwest may carry
away with them, a thorough Know
ledge OF all that science has given
to the world on health and welfare.
Poultry, as we'll as cattle, OF the
highest order, will be shown at this
exposition and thousands OF dollars
in prizes have been: offered Tor ex-
hibitors in the various departments.
Meetings of boosters for various
breeds of cattle are being arranged
and a general get-together OF these
men is planned.
The fact that the National Dairy
Exposition and the National Poultry
Exposition are to be brought SO near
to the homes Of the Northwest farm
ers is expected to encourage a large
attendance from every county ana
every section of the Northwest states
