Announcing the farm bureaus desire to sponsor the annual fair this year after it had been dis. continued for the past two years, E. E. Hendricks of Lewiston, president, and Allen Olsen, of commis-s-ioner- s Young, secretary, told that the bureau hopes to stage a fair "bigger and better than any presented in the prewar years. Commissioners agreed to cooperate with the bureau in any way possible in staging the event, pointing out that the 1944 county budget now provides for resuming the fair. The farm bureau representatives said the fair will include all normal crop and livestock exhibits, and probably a horse show and contests. A night rodeo also is being considered by bureau officers, they said. Farm bureau committees to manage various activities of the fair will be selected soon, Mr. Hendricks said. Wartime conditions prompted bureau officers to decide against sponsoring the fair during the past two years, but the conviction has been growing among county residents that some major county-wid- e program is desirable to spur farm production and provide wholesome recreahorse-pullin- g tion, officers said.
