GREETINGS:
The Morrow County Fair Board has the pleasure of presenting to you the Annual Premium List of the Morow County Fair.
We urge you to study carefully the suggestions contained and plan now to make your exhibit bigger, better and more interesting than
ever before.
"Our Fair," yours and mine, will be held in Heppner, September 15, 16 and 17, 1921. With your help it will be worth while.
Morrow County has the products and with everybody boosting the Fair will be a credit to everyone.
While the premiums are not large we have tried to make it possible for you to be loyal to your county and give her your support.
We are offering special inducements for showing wheat, wool, fat hogs, farm and community displays. You should prepare at once to
enter these contests.
The Morrow County Fair has been the important factor in improving Morrow County's credit since 1913. It has made possible the right
kind of advertising. We must continue.
Buy a family ticket and enjoy three days of music, dancing, entertainment and fun.
Trusting we mav have your hearty co-operation in making this the best fair, we remain,
