| i DIVISION G By gl 5 : VEGETABLES. - - CLASS 16—POTATOES. g s To develop the potato industry in Beltrami County, the' Association believe that no crop can be raised with more profit to settlers of ordinary means and will do more for the development of our county than po- tatoes, therefore have offered—in addition to our regular Premiums—the following Special Premiums: ] First Award—Fiity dollars, based upon the quality of a 300-pound exhibit from each half-acre, divided in four premiums as follows: First premium Second premium Third premium _ Fourth premium ; $50 Exhibits must be brought to the fair in ample time for proper entry, and must be reasonably free from dirt, with enough potatoes to insure|: the net weight of 300 pounds, or five bushels, to be passed upon by judges. Points of award will be fifty for the heaviest single potato'in exhibit ; twenty-five points on the heaviest average per potato in single bushel of each exhibit, and twenty-five points on the heaviest average per 300 pounds. Only merchantable and clean potatoes to be exhib_ited, with special proviso that each lot is to be put up and sold at auction at not less than sixty cents per bushel and the proceeds returned to the exhibitor to help pay his expenses of such exhibit. Second Award—Two hundred dollars will be given for the best total yield on a half-acre tract, and divided into four premiums as follows: First PrEMN oo om o oo i sRe s mR SRS S m s $ Second premium Third premium _ Fourth premium Measurements of yield in this award to be by a struck bushel basket of all sizes of potatoes fit for table use or feeding purposes. No restrictions are placed upon the kind of seed to be used, or the soil, or methods of cultivation ; the aim for this year is to make it a free- for-all entry under any condition, and the hope is that the best kinds of seed will be used, in order to produce the best market quality as well as the best known methods of cultivation to produce the quantity. Beltrami County has the proper soil and climate for successful potato culture, and there are unlimited markets at home, on the Iron Range, in Duluth and the Twin Cities. What we want to add to that are energetic, wide-awake farmers. : Parties wishing to compete for any of these premiums must notify J. J. Opsahl, one of the Directors of the Fair Association, in whose charge this matter has been placed, on or before June 2oth, giving name and address, with size of tract planted (which must be staked out and contain exactly eighty square rods), section, town and range. A list of all contestants will be made up and furnished each one, and the contestants in each township will then select from their: own number three judges to supervise the digging and measurement, they to issue sworn statements of their respective township yields. These different township judges will select from their number five judges, one from each commissioner district, to act as judges at the Fair and also award the premiums on the total yield as reported by the township judges, and whose certificates of awards will be accepted as final. The selection of township judges must be made and notice of same furnished J. J. Opsahl before July 20, who will then make a list of same and forward to their chairman at once so that they will have ample time to select their five county judges and have their names, etc., before the County Fair, and entered on the fair program. In this way the awards and general rules will be entirely in the hands of the parties who enter the contest.
