A big crowd was in atten- dance every day, but Thursday was a record breaker, thecrowd being es- timated at from 12 to 14 thousand. The Fair has been an educator, as the splendid products of Bates coun- ty were not appreciated, and but few realized what splendid strides had been made, especially in the improve- ment of live stock of all kinds.

On Friday, the last day, a grand parade of all the premium stock was made in front of the crowded amphi- theatre and it was a grand pageant. A caller from the Judge’s stund an- nounced each man’s herd as it passed in review of the admiring thousands. The head of the parade had passed around and off the half mile track, before the last had come on.
