Adverse Weather
Costly To Annual
County Fair

The seth annual Richland Coun-
ty Fair and Rodeo opened under
the most dismal weather conditions
in Fair history. Rain forced can
collation. of the afternoon rodeo
performance and only through the
cooperation of r. A. Gerber, Su-
perintendent of the Sidney Pub
lie Schools, was anything realized
from first day ticket sales. BY
making the Sidney high school
auditorium available to the Fair
Board, the stage show went on
as scheduled.
The second afternoon, with the
weather much improved, the ro-
dec attracted a good crowd, but
cold winds kept many people out
of the stands the second night.
For the first time in even years,
extra seating on the track was
not needed.
The exhibits in the agricultural
hall were excellent and the COM
munity booths were never better.
Great credit must be given to all
exhibitors and committeeman for
the splendid showing under adj
verse conditions. The livestock ex-
hibits were better than ever, with
Mr.. Charles Johnson of Savage
winning the coveted trophy for
Grand Champion Animal of the
Fair. School, All and FLA ex-
hIbits were numerous and of very
fine quality. AS usual the Wild
life and Pioneer Relic displays
attracted thousands. Commercial
displays were crowd attracting
and contributed a great deal to
the Fair.
The following general admis-
sion figures for the past three
years will best illustrate how this
years gate receipts compare with
those of 1854 and 1855:
