Competition is keen and judges face an enormous task in de- ciding the ribbon winners. ‘A greater number of counties are xepresented at this fair than ever be- fore and the exhibits are in greater variety and more excellent. They run all the way from the finest fruits to the lowly pumpkins. Sugar beets. representing one of the most profita- ble industries of the state, come from Platte, Goshen, Bix Horn, Fremont and Johnson. This is.an industry new to Wyoming in point of years and is growing very rapidly and Wyoming is now producing five times the quantity of sugar consumed by its own people. ‘The second industry shown at this state fair fg wheat and it may be news to at least some of our people that this state is now producing approxi- mately four times as much wheat as its people use. The wheat show is largely from nearby counties such as Goshen, Platte, Niobrara and Con- verse. There is another grain that is making an excellent showing. at this state fair and that is corn. Wyoming pioneers were loath to believe that an ear of corn could ever be raised in this state and right now we are pro- ducing almost as much corn as we consume. This crop%s raised and ex hibits are shown from Goshen, Nio- brara end Platte counties. Very much of ihis exhibit ts from dry farm lands and the quality is excellent. Potatoes are shown ‘at this fair of many vari- | eties and of splendid quality. Goshen county probably comes first in this exhibit, and the clamor now !s for a market for this crop. During the fair there will be a meeting of potato growers for the pur- pose of organizing so that Wyoming may have an opportunity to get bet- ter results from its potatoes. In this connection {t may be stated that a state potato show ‘will be held at Tor- rington, Nov. 22, 23 and 24. During he past two or three years the demand for }Wyoming potatoes for seed pur- poses has been constantly growing and the state $s now furnishing. seed for many of the western and soutiwestern states.

The preliminary skirmish in she battle to pry Henry Cabot Lodge out of the United States Senate te bene held today. Lodge himself is the caimest, cool- est person in the state. His opponents, some Republicans and all Democrats, are excited, not | because they think Lodge will be beaten for the Republbican nomina- tion, but because they are trying to work the state into enough of a sweat to give the Democratic can- @i@ate a chance in the November election. Lodge ts calm and cool because it te his naturé; also because he knows, just ac the Democrats pri- vately conceds, that only an earth- quake can prevent his nomination. Joseph Walker, former speaker of the Massachusetts House of Rep- resentatives, is the man who has the thankless job of trying to beat Ledge at the primaries. Few are ‘rash enough to-bet on Walkera chances. All the betting centers In the fight for the Demo- cratic nomination. These are the candidates: Sherman L. Whippk former counsel U. board, Col.
