In words to this effect the Minnesota State Agricul- tural society, which is the power be- hind the Minnesota State Fair, states its position, in its annual report filed with Governor Eberhart. For two years the association’s on- ly support from the state has been $15,000 for maintenance. During that time two exhibitions have been - given and the elements have inter- _ fered in each case. This year the association was compelled to borrow ». $17,500 to meet certain obligations. Despite this handicap the fair ex- ceeded Any S similar exhibition in the United States in potny of 3"9“‘13“05 and af the same.tims if pald oué i the “way of prémiunis, exclusxve of “the speed departitierit, over §53, 000. _This was nearly $5,000 better ilail the previous yeaf; As Sem‘étfir}; Simpsoh and the - board of fair directors put it, the State Fair must have state help, if it is to continue. There is a woeful i8¢k of equipment aud this, with the yearly depreciation, constitutes 3 burden that receipts more or less de- ;wndont upop the vagaries of the weatlier and the financial condition of the country will not always mesat To meet this [iepreciatioxx necessary repairs and demanded \mprovements, at least $25,000 a year in the sl\fl])t, of state aid, Mr. Simpson says, is ab- solutely necessary. Since the fair ‘was established thirty-one years ago, the state has made direct appropriations for im- provements; and building amounting to $639,999.90. The State Fair earned in that time, $1,089,2 - For every dollar the state lias ex pended the fair has paid back $1.70. As recommendations to the next legislature the fair management sug- gests new live stock barns, $200,- 000; roof on grand stand, $40,000. and maintenance, $50,000. The lat- —— ter is to cover a period of two vears, and, according to Mr. Simpson, is ab- solutely necessary if the fair is to be kept up to its present hizh dard. Minnesota cannot afford to lose the exposition. as to whether it should receive suf- ficient financial aid to properly con- tinue its good work, every asgsistance within reason should be granted. knowledge feither as to Price or Qual- ity.
