1 In
play and More Pre-
miums Given’
Already the men who planned
and brought til sucli a success-
ful finish dur first a Carni-
val and Fail- are widely parining
for the sec-ond to be held about
the same tiufe next year oil a far
more elaborate scale tlfa'u at
tempted this yeah'
The farnt exhibit' both out-
doors and iri the fexiuoition hall
will be the feiitureon which most
energy will expended and by
making the premium list cover
a wider range of products and
offering larger preihiums for the
best exhibit in' each' class it is
expected that next year the farm-
ers will make a display that will
compare witli tint at any fair in
theUrfite’d States'
The premium list will le print-
ed and distributed aiiy iii the
fall and farmers are urged to
save the best of every crop ma-
turing before the fair arid care-
fully preserve the same till open-
ing day
An effort will atsci be made to
have more attraction's and amuse-
ments on the grounds so that
the youn£ folks' liiav come an1
enjoy every minute of their stay’
