. In spite of the cloudy, threatening weather yesterday•
threatening rain at any minute, a fine crowd was on hand
throughout the day. The programs were coi
scheduled, and a number of s o c ia l events added, .
which had been postponed from Wednesday, the
day because of rain.
Throughout the day, the judging of the stcofc held
the attention of many. Farmers ffnd livestock raisers of
the district were especially interested in this part, of the
program, and the barns were crowded with interested
spectators when the judges inspected the animals.
Some of the finest stock on the coast is entered at the
Jackson county fair, and farmers are able to obtain a
great deal of instruction, which will be very helpful -to
them, while watching the judges at work.
