4TH ANNUAL CORN AND LIVE
STOCK SHOW. 10TH All BOYS
AND GIRLS CLUB FAIR


The dates Of September 30 and
October 1st and Bird have been set
for the 4th Annual Corn and Live
stock Show and 10th Annual All Club
Fair to be held this fall at the Mon
tana Livestock Pavilion in Great
Falls.
Due to several difficulties there
has been an unavoidable delay in
setting the dates and getting out the
premium list. Now that these mat
tiers have been all cleared up the big
fall show is going ahead under full
steam. The premium list will be in
the hands of the printer next week
and copy will be sent to you as
soon as they are off the press.
Unforeseen difficulties prevented the
County Fair Commission from get
ting things in shape for the proposed
county fair this fall However, def
mate plans for this event next fall
are we'll under way. The Montana
Livestock building has been pur-
chased and lease on some 80 acres
of land adjoining it has been secured
and arrangements for the necessary
funds for putting on a fair that Cas-
cade County may well be proud Of
are being made. AS in past years
the Corn and Livestock Show and
All Club Fair will be sponsored by
the Agriculture committee of the
Chamber Of Commerce and the Coun-
ty Agents of this district. The direct
supervision of the fair will be in the
hands of the County Fair Commits +
sion They wish it understood that
they are not attempting TO put on
onything in the order of the Cascade
County Fair but are simply gettinc
behind the how this fall to help make
it bigger and better than ever.
The degree of success of a fair Of
this kind depends entirely upon the
farmers and stockmen who have pro-
duce worthy of exhibiting. No
amount of plans, publicity or care
full arrangements will be effective if
the people who have produce worthy
of exhibiting DO not show sufficient
and cooperation to bring it
in
The premium list will be enlarged
and more complete than in previous
years. The substantial prizes offered
are worth trying for. There is little
in saying. "Why, have
got better stuff than=that at home. -

exhibits. Plan to do your
part by exhibiting and proving that
