They will find the grounds in better condition and more attractive
than ever before. They will find many new buildings. All in all,
they will see that Coos Bay has the best facilities of any section of
the Southwest Oregon for holding a big fair. The increased cash
premiums and specials will bring the greatest live stock show ever
seen on the coast, and it will compare favorably with the best fairs
of any section of the west. Some of the best horses on the coast
will be here to participate in the speed program. Some of the most
attractive purses ever hung up for a fair race meet will make each
individual event worth coming a long distance to see. The counties
will put up their best in trying to secure the prizes for the exhibits of
their products. There will be special rates on all lines of transporta
tion for passengers and special freight inducements for all exhibits.
If you wish any particular information it will be cheerfully given by
