Seeking More State
Aid For County Fairs
Request. Is Sent Governor IA. o
Preus BY. the Secretary of
Federation.

Additional appropriations for, the
support Of county fairs in the state
of Minnesota are asked for in a let
ter recently sent to Governor J. A.
o. Preus by r. F. Hall, secretary
of the Minnesota Federation Of
County Fairs, according to an an
nounoement received in this city.
The communication asks for the
support OF the local organizations
in getting this added appropriation.
Under the present appropriations,
the county fairs receive a maximum
amount of which is $1564.00, but the
money can never be sent out until
after all reports are made to the
state auditor. This is usually done
late in November. In order to take
care of premiums up to the time
the state appropriation IL received
it has been necessary for the far
associations to sign notes, thus put
ting them to considerable amount
of trouble. ~
The new budget proposed by the
federation is for $165. 1000 instead of
$4,000 as before. This would give
each fair the sum of $500. The
plan also proposes that the money
should be paid as soon as the books
Of the local fair association have
been audited by the public examin-
er and certified by the state audi l.
tor, thus eliminating the necessity
of waiting forspro rata appropria-
ton. -#~
