Lincoln for circulnr 108,
Lovers of livo stock will en
joy themselves to the limit
when they attend the Nebraska
"PROGRESSIVE" State Fair,
Lincoln, September 4th to 9th,
according to officials who have
been working all year to make
the live stock show an unusual
success.
Students of farming all ad
mit that livo stock raising is
the most important farm indus
try. Farms that have no stock,
or only poor stock, cannot ex
pect to be as profitable as thoso
on which lots of good stock is
kept. j
Visitors at the coming State
Fair will be surprised when
they find out how much good
stock wo have here at homo.
Nebraska pure bred live slock
breeders have some of tho fin
est animals to be found any
where in the country. Tho
best of it would compote on an
even basis with the best from
any surrounding district. A
blue ribbon won at the Ne
braska State Fair will be of
wonderful value as an advertis
ing asset to the owner of tho
animal winning it.
In tho belief that "All work
and no play makes Jack a dull
boy," Fair Officials have ar
ranged an entertainment pro
gram that will satisfy visitors
evory moment of the fair.
These features include Auto
Racing, Horse Racing, plenty
of music, fireworks and a Mam
moth Circus. It is the best
program of tho kind over put
together and it i3 to be hoped
that tho people of the State
will chow their appreciation of
tho efforts of the management
by an unstinted patronage.
