Minnesota State Fair
Will Have To-Day Show
VIII Open August 26, 1889,
And Will Continue Until
Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 4

The 1889 Minnesota State Fair
will be expanded to a ten-day ex.
position and will be advanced one
week in date. 1t will open en- Satur.
day, August &c and will close La
Dor Day, September 4th. This &C
ton was taken by the board OF
managers following the close OF
the 1888 fair Saturday.
The inclement weather. which
cut into the attendance at the state
fair this year, was only one of four
factors which prompted the board
of managers to make the major
change in the exposition's policy.
The expansion is the elimination
of three years discussion on the
advisability of holding two-week
fair. A large block OF regular ex-
hibitors and concessionaires have
advocated this policy fer some time
because of the large expense involv-
ed in presenting exhibits of high
standard.
Change in dates and the increase
in the number of days CT the ex-
position were promised on the fol-
lowing four factors:
Weather during the last week of
August, records show, is warmer
and more stable.
Educational opportunities for
school children and teachers will
be increased by holding the state
fair during vacation.
During the last week in August
the Minnesota tourist season is
still en-, and more out-of-state visit
ors will be given an opportunity to
attend.
Exhibitors and concessionaires
will have an opportunity for a
greater return from a substantial
investment.
The State fair was made an
eight-day fair in 1919 and has con-
tinued on that basis since then. At
that time the fair was expanded to
eight days because of the growth
of the institutiCn-the same rea-
son that prompted the action Sun
day.
Growth in physical plant over the
past five years has provided the
facilities for holding an exposition
that is worldwide in scope. A five
year construction program has
virtually rebuilt the grounds and
the addition of the All club build
ing scheduled for completion in
1889 will further augment the ply
steal properties.
Tho 1000 fos
cessful in history, measured from
every viewpoint excepting the
weather. And even in face of five
day of rain the attendance was only
II percent below the record of a
year age. The attendance was 582,-
161.
1.-The officers of the State Fair
feel that the citizens have paid the
fair glowing tribute by the man
ner in which they attended despite
the inclement weather" said Ray
mond A. Lee, secretary of the fair.
IF any visual demonstration was
needed to prove the place the Fair
occupies in the hearts of the peo-
pie it was amply shown when in
the face of constantly threatening
skies and rain they turned out re-
cord in throngs daily"
Five days of rain naturally cut
heavily into the fairs receipts.
While it is certain that little, if any
profit will be shown, the manage
ment will be able to pay all bills in
