THE COUNTY FAIR.
The county fair which closed
yesterday was not all that the association -
ciation labored for and hoped to
make it , but in some particulars it
was quite meritorious. At any
rate little or no blame attaches to
the officers of the association.
They performed their work ener-
getically. However , the agricultural -
tural feature of the fair was a suc-
cess. The hall was well filled with
small grains , corn , vegetables ,
fruits , etc. , and of a high grade of
excellence. In tact , perhaps Red
Willow county never produced a
finer lot of vegetables than have
been dug from her soil this season.
In needlework , pastry , canned
fruits , paintings , etc. , the exhibit
was hardly up to former years.
In stock , poultry , etc. , there was
a noticeable shortage indeed. But
few chickens , cattle or hogs being
on exhibition. The display made
by W.N.Rogers of the Shadeland
stock farm was the only notable
feature of the stock display. His
twelve Herefords of all ages could
be successfully shown at any state
fair. They are beauties.
But it was in the races and the
amusement line generally that the
fair was not up to the average ; but
as horses did not put in an appearance -
ance to do the racing the management -
ment cannot be blamed for this
flunk , as they made the very best
of everything in that line that
came to their hand.
The attendance was pretty good
-especially on Wednesday , when
McCook turned out in numbers as
is her custom on the occasion of
the county fair ; and it is quite
likely that the association will be
able to pay the premiums in full.
The discomforts of heat , dust
and wind suggest that it would be
better to hold the county fair a
M week or two later in the future.
}
Jacob Longnecker won the Aer-
motor Co.'s wind with his tubers.
W.N.Rogers took everything in
sight with his Herefords , and besides -
sides had a splendid agricultural
display.
Jas. Roberson of Valley Grange
precinct carried aft a number of
premiums on his vegetable display.
The races were the greatest die-
appointment. There were but few
good ones during the meeting.
Courier : Friday evening C.W.
Barnes of the McCook Times-Dem-
ocrat received word that his wife
who is at present in Denver had
given birth to a daughter. Charles
left for that place , Saturday , and
found on his arrival that the report -
port was true. Whether the new
woman demanded bloomers and a
bicycle of the "governor" on his
arrival and presentation , our brother -
ther did not state.
