ATTENTION FARMERS
It is the duty of every farmer in Crook County to
save and bring some exhibits to the Oregon Inter-State
Fair this year as crops are good this season and all should
take pride in helping the Board of Directors make the Fair
one. of the best in Oregon.
The material is here to overflow all the stock barns
and the agricultural building and the fair board urge every
farmer to save something, for the Fair to be held October
6, 7, 8, and 9. If you are too busy to prepare the exhib
its, use the following methods for preserving them for the'
time bejng and then notify the Manager of the Fair if you
need further help.
How to Prepare Exhibits
1. Specimens for exhibit purposes must be
gathered either at or just before the tlme of
harvest.
2. Grain should be gathered when Just start
ing to ripen.
3. Better results are obtained by dipping the
butts of grain stalk in salt water or brine im
mediately after gathering, however, it Is not
absolutely necessary tbls be done..
4. Tie the bundles securely at the butts and
hang In a cool dark place with the heads down
until cured.
.6. Cover the heads with a newspaper or sack
until ready to exhibit.
6. Show specimens of grain bundles should be
at leasj 4 Inches In diameter.
7. Gather affalfavor clover at the time they
will make the best showing then take at once
to a cool dark place and hang with beads down
until cured.
8. Gather fruit when a litle under ripe.
9. Root crops cannot be gathered until ripe or
nearly ripe.
10. Care must be taken that roots are not brok
en on root crops when harvesting. .To Prevent
Shrinkage.
11. Uniformity counts in all exhibits and when
two or more specimens of the same size are to
be shown it is necessary that they all be the
same size, color, and shape as nearly as possible.
Don't say you have some good material for an exhibit
but haven't time to save it, but start now to think about
the Fair and help us fill the exhibit buildings full. Last
yearns showing was a disgrace to the County so lets make
up for it this fall.
