POULTRY SHOW
IN PROGRESS
NOWATARMORY
NEARLY 500 BIRDS ENTERED
FROM ALL PARTS OF THE
STATE. NOTED SPEAKERS
TALK AT POULTRY SHOW.

With the entries closed on Tuesday
night for the annual show of the Red
wood County Poultry Association the
first day of the show is in progress
and every thing points to decided
success. The local showing of birds
this year has more than doubled over
last year and the quality Of the ex-
hibits are extremely high and COM
petition will be close. In connection
with the show an institute is being
held with prominent poultry raisers
giving talks on various phases OF
poultry work, such as feeding, hous-
ing, culling etc. The roads and the
recent storm have helped to keep the
outsiders away to some extent but
many birds have been entered from
different parts of the state. Hot
lunches will be served Thursday and
Friday.
w. E. Stanfield has been engaged
to Judge the Poultry Show to fill the
position of Glen Roberts, who was
previously engaged but was unable
to carry out his schedule. Mr.. STAINS
field is reliable judge in high
standing and will undoubtedly fill the
position to the full expectation of all
the exhibitors. He will spend two
days judging, January 13 and IA and
will appear on the Poultry Institute
Program for one or two sessions
Thursday. Mr.. Stansfield will take
up the same subject of Mr.. Roberts
on "The Poultry House and Ventila-
tion Programs" and will be asked to
speak at another session on some 9TH
er subject.
The Corn Show, held in connection
with the Poultry Show and the Poul-
try Institute is an amateur show and
open to anyone who has not taken
prizes at other shows. The exhibit
of corn is large and the quality is ex-
tremely good.
Below is given an outline of the In
stitute program for Thursday and
Friday by the auxiliary Of the Amer
lean Legion in the dining room of the
armory.

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 9Th 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
CARNATIONS devoted to the advance
ment of agriculture had it's inception
in Chapter 142, Laws of 1888 which
appropriated $4,000 annually. At sub
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.
