STATE FAIR PREPARATIONS

From anto tolairship, a mile
a minute. This stunt will be
pulled off daily in front of the
grandstand at the Washington
state fair at Yakima September
1922. The ffer circles above a
speeding auto, swoops down and
plucks fellow daredevil from
the car. Thrills for everybody.
From morning till night the
sound Of the spraying machine
is to be heard on the grounds of
the state fair at Yakima. 1t
has nothing to do with the grow
ing of apples, however. The
state fair is merely powdering
it's nose preparatory to making
it's 1928 bow to the public the
week Of September 1922. To
be exact, the stockbarns and ex-
hibit buildings and yards or
fence are getting their annual
coat of white wash. 1t takes
GO barrels of lime to cover the
half million square feet of sur
face presenting itself for embell-
ishment.
Carpenters are busy, too.
There are to be new bleachers
constructed at the south end of
the grandstand. The poultry
building is to have an extra Is
feet, the hog barn \ has been
equipped with stalls for 100
more exhibits, new shower baths
have been constructed for the
show cattle which must have
daily bath and shampoo. There
is to be considerable new fenc-
ing. One of the best looking
improvements is the room, GO by
100 feet, which has been built
where the balcony of the audi
torium used to be and which
provides additional exhibit space
for which demand lis coming in
fast. The Port of Seattle is to
have one corner of this room and
will make Il fine exhibit of
Washington's exports, which
need dock facilities. The life
history of a bushel of wheat,
of a box of apples, and other
products will be shown.
Unusual among the stock
entries is one received this
week for % head of milking
shorthorns from the Northwood
farm at Redmond, Wash.
