COUNTY FAIR DIRECTORS MEET
A meeting of the directors of the
County Fair Awociation was held Thurs-
day afternoon of last week at which
time Jen" Holland offered his resigna-
tion as president of the Association and
W. H. Wells was elected to head the
work the coming year. E. D. Humph-
rey was retained as secretary. Dates
for the fair were set for September 22-23-24
and general plans Stnd arrange-
ments discussed.
The Beqver County Fair last year was
unquestionably n success it requires
much work on the part of the promoters
to meet the many responsibilities in-
cident to such an event and that Mr.
Holland as president Mr. Humphrey
as secretary and the other directors and
helpers did meet the same successfully
is a matter for congratulation. In the
new president W. H. Wells and the
continuance in service of Mr. Humph-
rey; secretary Beaver County Fair is
assured anotherrnost successful season.
Mr. Wells is interested both from the
angle of n breeder and of a banker be-
ing cashier of The First National Bank
of Beaver and at the same time a most
extensive and successful breeder of fine
Hereford pure breds his ranch boli.ij
located on the Beaver river a few miles
east of this town where may be foui.d
the prize winners of Beaver County's
1920 Fair and as pretty a bunch of reg-
istered Herefords as it is possible to find
anywhere.
This year's fair should be bigger and
better than ever. The season has been
wonderful and it will be possible to k -pare
a greater variety of products for
exhibition than formerly. The livestock
development grows greater too from
year to year and this season tdiould
show an increased exhibit in that de-
partment. Our people should begin to
plan and prepare now to carry off a lot'
of the honors "and. premiums this fall.
The catalogue will soon be issued but
don't wait for it You know about what
th? offerings will be. Get busy now.
Rest assurred anything you may wish
to enter will be- provided for. Plan to
make Beaver County Fair 1921 the best
ever.

right on "for the joy of service" and
forget the vexations and thunklessiies

A BOUQUET FOR OUR COUNTY CLERK
B. J.JMclton -head of the biological
survey of this district was here the
pabt week. In a statement to County
Agent Hanly Mr. Melton stated that
Beaver county pcoplo should know that
their county clerk has the best record
of any clerk in the state for co-operation
with his department in rejiorting
the progress of work in eliminating
prairie dogs. A state law provides that
prarie doga and other rodents must be
eradicated by property owners and he
stated while hero that if Beaver county
ofllcials would co-oporato with him in
enforcing tho law that his department
would furnish tho poison free. County
Agent' Hanly will tako the matter up
with the board of county commissioner
at their next regular meeting and It r
to be hoped that such an arrangement
can be made.
