COUNTY FAIR
| RE0RGANIzED
Agricultural Exhibits Will Be
Strongly Featured, Instead
of Carnival Effect.

Agriculture will command the spot
light of attention at future st. Louis
county fairs, according to reorganiza-
ton plans launched by the new board
of directors.
Horticulture, dairying, poultry and
other farm activities will be substituted
for what the new directors believe to be
over-emphaSis of carnival and amuse-
ment concessions. ADJUSTMENTS will be
confined to horse and automobile racing,
a restricted midway of carnival con-
cessions and program of better class
vaudeville.
The reorganization of the fair is in
the hands of an entirely new board of
directors with dirt farmers predomina-
ting the membership and VIM. F.
Haenke, Gilbert potato grower, as presi-
dent. Recently Mr.. Haenke was
crowned champion seed potato grower
at exercises honoring him at the Uni
verSity farm.
A statement issued recently by the
new iacorporatorS of the fair COM
mented on ''the apparent lack of in
tereSt among those who should be pri-
marily concerned in the display of the
products of the farm at the county
fair. OF the various reasons advanced
to account for this lack of interest, the
one most commonly given was the fact
that the farmers, themselves, had no
voice in the fair plans"
At the Virginia meeting in December
the farmers met and launched the re-
organization plan. The stock holding
in the new fair association was limited
to one share per member George
Pauly of Hibbing was named secretary
manager.
Dates for the 1885 fair, which will be
the first under the new agricultural
regime, are August %, "a and Is.
