Junior Fair Is
Outstanding
Achievement


and sponsors of the Browning
Junior Fair, held on Friday, Sat
urday and Sunday last at the
Browning fair grounds, with ex-
hibitors and participants from
every section of the county TAX
ing part.
While no accurate account of
the attendance was possible, as
no admission fee was charged, it
is believed that more people Wis.
tied the grounds, viewed the ex-
hibits and enjoyed the programs
than in any previous year.
Visitors at the fair who have
attended former exhibitions re-
marked about the improvements
in both the quality and quantity
of the products and craft show
ings on display this year over any
previous displays. The facilities
for displaying the exhibits were
improved, too, and each year the
buildings show increased and i'm
proved accommodations.
During the first two days of the
fair much time and attention was
devoted to the placing of displays
and the work of the judges in
making the awards: Visitors
came and left in smaller numbers
but the total attendance was
large. On Sunday, the last day,
the grand stand was we'll filled
to watch the Rodeo performance
and cheer the young performers
as they presented most credit
able show. Practically all of the
Sunday afternoon attendants at
the show also viewed the exhibits
and were loud in their praise of
the showings in all departments.
A total of 1868 entries were
made in all departments. This is
a slight increase over the past
two years. The All entries were
higher, while the FLA. entries
were slightly lower.
The livestock barns were we'll
filled with cattle taking the lead,
and there were quite number of
sheep exhibits, but the swine de-
partment was small. All or most
of the livestock shown was raised
by the young people of the reser-
Walton area as part of their
FLA and All training projects.
Many Awards Made
Awards were made in all de-
partments, including the exhibits
made by All members and the
FLA. These awards were made,
not on the basis of a first, second
and third ribbon for exhibits ac-
tually shown, but according to
certain standards set up by state
wide requirements. Thus red,
ribbon might mean the highest
award in the local show, but not
quite up to standards required
for blue ribbon. award in larg-
er exhibition with a wider field
Of competition.
Ii is impossible to print, in the
limited space and time available,
all of the individual awards, with

lowing summary tells the story
