September 4-9 Inclusive. Each re
present the most valuable units for
the dissemination of agricultural In
formation and knowledge.
Sheaves of grain should be selected
at once and placed out of the rain and
danger of injury by mice, etc. Straw ;
of good uniform length, and site, well
filled, uniform heads of the same va
riety, and grain treo from disease are
essential to a good exhibit. They
should be bound In uniform bundles
and the uso of baby ribbon In binding
will make the bundle more attrac
tive. u shr luflcrhdlunhur; ldshdr sh dl
In the selection of threshed grain
exhibits use a neat container, in
which place grain true to variety
type, free from all other varieties of
weed, seeds, sticks, dust, etc., and
uniform in size, color, and variety
characteristics. It is well to have
the variety and test per bushel label
ed. With truck crops Including pota
toes and fruit. Judgment must be ex
ercised in the selection of exhibits.
Besides variety type and quality,
proper packing, uniformity and mra
ket desirability are most important.
Many exhibitors of potatoes, fruit,
etc., have lost out completely because
of lack of uniformity and market de
sirability. It is not the largest ap
ples or the largest potatoes that the
market wants
In the exhibiting of livestock the
following things should be consider
ed: All animals should be carefully
brushed or curried. The hoofs should
be carefully trimmed. Horses should
be broken to show well when led at a
iralk of a trot. They will also ap
pear better it the bridle or halter Js
attractive. The fleece of sheep
hoJa be blocked to giver neat ap
pearance.. , Animals will appear more
Sleek and make a better i impression
It they are given a little extra feed
and etttacare.' ' ''-
t These fairs belong tp everyone and
everyone should booM tor them. This
