COUNTIES GIVEN
STATE AID FOR
FAIRS OF 1926
REDWOOD co. EXPECTS APPOR-
TIONMENT AT ANY TIME;
STATE APPROPRIATES $4,000
ANNUALLY.

Many counties in the state have not
yet received the state aid for County
Countyetao shrdlu cmfwyp shrdl eta
Fairs. Among these is Redwood
County. Secretary w. A. Hauck
states that it is expected that this aid
will be received within the next few
days. The. last legislature appropria-
ted $4,000 to reimburse county and
district agricultural societies and as
sociations for the premiums paid by
them at the shows held during 1926.
This state aid is paid by the state aud
ftor on receipt of affidavit from the
public examiner that the society ap-
plying has complied with the law.
Up to January 5th only So societies
had compiled with all legal provisions
and Ray P. Chase, state auditor, an
nounces that on that date these So
societies had been reimbursed to the
amount of $96,881.96.
State aid to county and district or
gainzations devoted to the advance
ment of agriculture had it's inception
in Chapter 142, Laws of 1888 which
appropriated $4,000 annually. At SUBJ
sequent biennial sessions the amount
has been increased until it now totals
$4,000 annually, thus materially
stabilizing county fairs. This increase
is also good illustration of the grad
ual growth of state expenditures.
Under the present law $1700 is the
greatest amount that may be paid to
any one society and is reimbursement
for premiums paid only. No money
expended for horse races, amusements
of similar purposes may be included.
