There has been done much planing for the Fair to make it the greatest that has ever been held here and it has taken an endless amount of work to execute these plans. The management of the Fair has had a busy time of it for the past month fashioning out the details. ThQ greater par of this work hasT fallen to the lot of Secretary N. R. Parker. H,,nas labored faithfully and has done his work well. The arrangements and plans have been perfected and now everything is in readiness for the opening day. The exhibition halls are all ready to receive the exhibits, and the officers of the fair awaits the arrival of the exhibits. The premium list were sent out several weeks ago to give the pople an idea how to prepare for the fair. The people throughout the dis trict have taken kindly to the idea and have shown greats interest in the fair. The exhibits .are expected to begin to arrive right away and they will be installed 'immediately upon their arrival. This last appeal . is made to the farmers, fishermen, manufacturers and to everybody in the district to fail not in bringing the exhibits to the fair. The success of the fair depends upon the exhibits and the management of the fair wants a big array of exhibits from all over the district. The farmer is requested to bring or send some choice product of the farm some agricultural product, or some live stock or fowl. The housewife is urged to bring or send to the fair some product of the pantry, kitchen or household to participate in the fair for a premium. This appeal is now for the department of exhibits at the fair, lest our farmer friends should get careless and neglect to bring or send the exhibits. Let the exhibits come with a rush that will make the Fair go with a Tush1. BROWN'S PHARMACY Just received this week nice as sortment of Whitman's Candies fresh from the factory.
