With no State Fair and few county fairs, Box Eider county is going to try and show the people from, all over the state, that will be assembled here on fair days, what it produces and what its citizens can do in the way of making entertainment. The rodeo will be up to par, with. some perdicting that it will be the best yet, because of the fact that it will be one of the very few rodeos put on in the state and because of the fact that extra effort is being put forth to make t unusually good this year. Setting later dates gives ample time for the crops to mature and in this department much finer and bigger exhibits will be had. The horse pulling contest, that last ear attracted nearly as many customers as the rodeo, will be the greatest ever staged in this county with some very fine prizes for the contestants. d and Already the ft iris wheels and other concessions have been signed up insuring those who enjoy these rides "and concesuons plenty pf amusement in this line. Special features will be had in the atts and relic department ,and for months past the schools have been preparing their exhibitions. Bills and placards are now out announcing the features of the fair and rodeo. Every citizen in the county is expected to take an interest in tha fair and particularly those who have and livestock, poultry, agricultural hoititultural products and other to enter at the fafr. One feature which will go a long way in making the fair the most successful in its history is the fact that there will be no admission charge to the fair grounds, Juf t a reminder to the business men and farmers and others in general who have in the past donned the ten gallon hats, the fair officials are veiy araious to continue this extra ordinary manner of advertising and everyone is invited to don their hats the first week in September.

Fourth Annual Wheat Day Was Big Success The fourth annual Wheat Day held at Garland last Saturday was an outstanding success and attracted hundreds of people from all over the county. The meeting held in the morning, at which Secretary of State Milton H. Welling and Director Peterson, of the U. S. A. C. were the principal speakers, was enjoyed and appreciated by a huge crowd that attended. In the afternoon, the baseball game and rodeo, which displayed local talent in both instances, furnished a high class entertainment for the onlookers. The day's festivities ended with a grand ball in the evening at the large warehouse. The celebration from every standpoint, including financial, was an unqualified success and those who were responsible for its conduct are to be congratulated on the fine manner in which the day's activities were directed and carried out. Benefits of Co. Fair Told by Whitney Bates This is7 the second article in a series written by, eighth grade students on "The Benefits of a County Fair." A county fair is, indeed, beneficial to the people of the community in which it is held. Not only has it advertising value and brings a large amount of business into the community, but it also serves as an encouragement to the people to advertise their county. It gives the farmers a chance to exhibit livestock and products of the fields, and gives the people an opportunity to see the "best in the county." It gives the students of the county schools an opportunity to exhibit their writing, art work, and other school work. It gives a chance for the livestick judging teams of the schools to judge cattle, sheep, horses, and hogs. It is a wonderful opportunity for the exhibition of project work, and gives the girls of the clubs a chance to exhibit their cooking and sewing. A county fair gives a chance for exhibition of many beautiful flowers. It tends to give the town or community in which it is held more prestige in its own locality. It exhibits the quality of the county's livestock, and encourages buying of livestock which was raised in that county. Above all, it builds a cooper ative ana friendly spirit amoncr the people residing in that community. Whitney Bates.
