the world and second in the Uni-
ted States. This is of special in-
terest to our local people since
part of the Oklahoma exhibit was
from Garvin County.
At this world's exposition Okla-
homa exhibited the greatest varie-
ty of products of any state or pro-
vence. In fact it is said there was
hardly a product in the whole
collection but that one like it
could be found in the Oklahoma
exhibit. J. A. Whitehurst, presi-
dent of the State Board of Agri-
culture, in speaking of the mat-
ter, said 98 per cent of the people
of other states and fifty per cent
of the people of Oklahoma do i.ot
know what Oklahoma can pro-
duce. And did you know that any
and all of the products raised in
the state can be raised right here
in Garvin County?
Free Fair Election in November.
Mr. Jas. A. Wilson, Dircetor of
the Extension Division of the A.
& M. College, has directed a letter
to County and Home Demonstra-
tion Agents, and Free Fair Offici-
als in which he says: "This is
Free Fair Election year and No-
vember 8th is the date on which
election must be held. This is a
very important matter and it
must not be neglected. In the few
years that this law has been in
effect Oklahoma ha3 forged to the
front rank in Agricultural Fairs
in the United States and we must
see to it that no backward step is
taken on the second Saturday in
next month."
No one factor does more to sti-
mulate effort in the improvement
of farm conditions than the agri-
cultural fair. It is there that the
farmer has an opportunity, to see
and observe the progress being
made in the improvement of farm
crops and animals, and to com-
pare his own efforts with the
work of others. His successes in
competing with his neighbors
stimulate him to greater efforts,
and his failures teach him where-
in his work has been at fault.
Look around for yourself and you
will clearly see that it is the coun-
ties putting on the best county
fairs that are making the greatest
progress. We believe Garvin
County cannot afford to drop her
county fairs, but we cannot have
a fair worthwhile without the ac-
tive cooperation of all the pro-
gressive people of our great coun-
ty, and we cannot have a fair,
such as Gaivin County is entitl-
ed to without a suitable place to
hold a fair.
T. D. FELTS,
County Agent.
