The crowds thronged the grounds each day of the Fair and all seemed to greatly enjoy the various departments, The exhibits in the agricultural department were not 80 large ar they might have been or so numerous, but the big double-decked building was crowded all the time. The produete of the houre- wives attracted much attention as did the fancy work. The horses and mules, jacks and jen - nete, hoga and cattle fied over a huns dred stalla, and all the stock was pres mium winners ‘almost. The fine hoge were the center of a big audience near - ly all day long, and the chicken exhibit was one of the finest ever put up in South-west Mire-uri, The racing program each day gave great satisfaction to all good horsemen and the large grand stand, which seate about 2500 people wae filled every after- noon The racing was as straight ae it could be conducted, and the fact that * there was no book-making on the grounda ad-led to ite cleantiness, Not a gambling game was permitted on ‘the grounds. There wae no boistrous "con~ \ duct and not an arrest made, The morale of the Fair wae high indeed and it was as pretty and clean an exhibition as the most faetidioys could wieh.
