New clothes are always a matter of interest to active men; they

A t the meeting of the state fair
board Saturday, it was decided
that the premiums for the ’ 17 fair
should be $28,0lX>. which is $4,-
j fjiXt more than the premium for
last year. Of this large amount
$17,500 comes from appropria­
tions by the legislature. The
remain ler comes from gate re­
ceipts and from the concession.
The total premium for the
county a >ricultural exhibits was
fixed at $8,000 which is an in-
cfea ed of about $2,000. The
incre ise goes for larger pre­
miums on sheep swine and dairy
catt’e. On account o f difficulty
last year in the goat section, no
premium will be given them

b* ng lL f lo . competition on Dor­
set sheep and Essick swine, the
premiums on those breeas were
eliminated.
The board added $2,500 from
