Indianola day afternoon to form a circuit for and Imperial met in McCook yester fall fairs and races Aitfr considerable discussion four of the six counties went into a cir cuit and the following tentative dates were determined upon Atwood September 5th Beaver City September 12th Alma September 19th Indianola September 26th Benkelmaa and Impel ial could not see their way clear to go into the as sociation Nor was McCcok prepared to enter However all f these will doubtless have fairs and races com ing fall and may be able to decide upon some concerted endeavor in this matter Those participating in the confer ence were Morse of Benkelman Munger of Atwood Moore of Alma Ryan of Indianola Sourfe of Imper ial and Phillips of Beaver City As for McCook the most difficult problem to i olve is the location The present race track grounds are not accessible It seems to be agreed among those who are interested that the first step toward a permanent county fair and racing association is the organization of a company or a corporation and the purchase of a location This idea could possibly be de veloped along witli a park proposition thus in due course of time the city could secuie a permanent fair ground and park facilities A sentiment is forming among somi of our business men that such an or anzation should be effected and we bBiiuus woric uegun ot securing a permanent location
