Montana State Fair
This Season Will Surpass
Amy Previous Year-DePue

That the North Montana State
fair is an institution with q ma
tional reputation far greater than
is generally realized in Montana
was brought out recently by Har-
old F. DePue, secretary manager,
in a talk at the sixth annual fair
dinner, held at Hotel Rainbow,
Great Falls.
DePue emphasized that the fair last
year stood 18th in the entire nation in
point of attendance, and seventh in
cash premiums offered, in comparison
with the 3,O00-odd fairs in the United
States.
I'm it's six years of operation, the
98l AL persons pay their admission into
the grounds and On opening day this
year the millionth person is expected,
to be suitably rewarded with q cash
prize Of $780," he said. He continued:
Just what an attendance of a mil
lion persons means can best be visual
lied by picturing them as marching In
a solid line, with each person occupying
the bare minimum of 10 inches of space
in the line. So arranged, a marching
column of 100000 persons would ex-
tend solidly from Great Falls to Glass
gov.
'"The attendance record is all the
more remarkable when it is considered
that there are only 10000 persons living
within a 150-mile radius Of the fair. To
bring home to you what this means
it might be well to point out that the
great Minnesota state fair, with 1000
600 persons living within 10 miles OF
its gates, last year drew 683 900. Other
state fairs, in areas much nor popu-
